Ray, if you haven't yet, you should totally check out Saint Rocke. Great little live venue, and their food is stellar. Parking is a drag, but you'd be close enough to cab it:
No, you don't bunk at your office, but you do generally live within a reasonable distance. Also, since the Toyota HQ is in Torrance, the south bay is a really reasonable place to put your bunk.
