Oh, yeah, I've been self-employed from home for years. Go to bed when I want, wake up when I want. I usually get my work done before noon, and have the rest of the day. On the day of an event, I might put in 12-15 straight hours of hard work at a job site, but that's only once or twice a week, and it's actually the fun part of the job.

I don't miss office politics at all, and it only sounds like it's gotten far worse.
