I Can’t Write in This Environment
Too many people, too much conversation, a little tired, and an uncomfortable chair.
OH, coffee shop. I cannot focus when you are lively.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124950421033208823.html food for thought.
It makes sense for some. I spend about $3.50 – $5.50 when I go to the coffee shop and I sit there and play on my computer and toss out witticisms for 2-3 hrs. Though, we’re talking about 7:30am- 10:30am on Saturday and Sunday when most people are sleeping and there’s tons of cross table talking (which is why it’s so damn hard to write at the coffee shop.)
Does that make me a bad client? I guess I’ve always thought I was a good client because at least I’m patronizing the same shop over and over. And we do bring entertainment with us. I mean, there are people that show up JUST to spend time with us!
