At my current job I try to WFH 2 days a week, and in the past I've been full time WFH. This time is different. I normally have a fair amount of social anxiety and absolutely hate the open office at work... but after over a month of barely interacting with anyone but my wife I can't wait to get back to the office. I even miss the shitty commute, but as wasteful and time consuming as it is, it is mentally stimulating. Maybe it's my cramped valley apartment... I don't know. I used to WFH from my old house and felt a lot more comfortable there.

> Maybe it's my cramped valley apartment... I don't know. I used to WFH from my old house and felt a lot more comfortable there. This is probably a big deal. I love having a ton of sunlight and I pay a premium to have an apartment with an amazing view from a set of giant windows on a 6th floor apartment. At work, a ton of my colleagues are very uncomfortable with sunlight glare on their monitors, so our building always has blinds down and is lit by artificial lighting throughout the year. I much prefer my apartment with the natural light, peaceful silence and an amazing view. I am sure that loving my home is a big part of me being happy with the current arrangements.
