I have been seeing a lot of short YouTube videos asking, "You haven't slept in a week. Which view would you like to wake up to?" And it's a big window with the ocean lapping at the bottom of the frame. Or it's a treehouse on a mountain top in a blizzard, with pine trees whipping back and forth and snowflake clusters the size of Pop-Tarts slapping against the glass. Or its an open porch in the rain forest, with rain falling and biting insects flying past. Or it's an all-glass modernistic house Hot Glued to the side of a cliff. I want a beautiful sparkling view of a city skyline. Or there was one where the sleeping quarters were on a space station, with a lovely view of our globe spinning below.

These videos sound interesting; thanks, shall have to check them out :)

Although, if one hadn't slept in a week, the view is immaterial, as long as there's a mattress and a blanket, and at least 10 uninterrupted hours...

They often start with, "What view do you want to wake up to?" or "Which of these is your dream house?" But I don't want to be in a house where ocean flooding can smash in through the enormous glass window. Or on a mountain top in the rain forest, during a monsoon, with the trees whipping back and forth in the wind as the rain cascades down the mountain. Or a tiny stucco cottage in the middle of a cornfield. Nope. Give me a city penthouse with a nice view of the skyline. There was one where the bed was inside a space station, and the view out the window was the magnificent face of Mother Terra, full of weather systems and oceans and mountains. I'll take that one!
