I have been in my office at 99 Chauncy St for less than a year, and in that time have come to hate the gloomy air shaft my wondow overlooks. I’m on the 5th floor of an 11-story building, so not only is the “air” in this shaft is of rather dubious quality, but the window itself barely hints at the existence of an outdoors.
The AC wasn’t working well this morning so I was sitting out in the office library. When I returned to my office a few minutes ago, I was greeted with cheery, bright, direct sunlight! I checked my watch — sure enough, it’s noon. As I write this, I can already see the light fading away from my window, but on this day, the longest of the year, my office window was in cosmic alignment.
