ARTICULATED

I’m sitting here in DC today reflecting for a moment on my setup.

I love home offices. In Denver, my home office is nearly perfect. It’s situated so that I look directly out my glass front door onto a courtyard and then the street. When the door stays open, dogs can come and go. The office has a door to the house’s master bath, and it’s around the corner from the kitchen. It’s comfortable, convenient, and conducive to work.

In DC, Kinkennon Communications rents a spare bedroom in my friend Shane Reppert’s house. In that bedroom, I have a bed, desk, printer, computer charger, and the like. I also have a Swobo Sanchez (fixed gear bicycle) to get around town, green-and-fit style. So I also keep a lock, a set of lights, a pump, tools, helmet, and all else I need to ensure that bike is ready to be used any time I get to town.

My actual office address in DC is a K Street address, which really is borrowed from a good friend who runs his own law firm at that location.  A great guy, he feels like he owes me one, even though he doesn’t.   Of course, most of my time in DC is spent in meetings anyway, so I spend very little time in any office. When I do, it’s usually the little spare-bedroom office, which for some reason I like very much.

For all of this, I consider myself quite lucky.
