You're Back!

Due to some bug all my followers disappeared from view. Apparently it's a common issue, but it made me wonder if I was talking to myself. But now I can see you again, so hello!

We are moving this week, taking it slowly because we don't have to be out of our current place by a certain time and, drum roll please, I have a job interview this week! My first one since we've been back in CA. I am curious about this position, it's with the state and the job description was so vague it could have been for anything. Wish me well, ok?

The new apartment is in the East Bay and no closer to Aaron's job but a reasonable commute to most places in the Bay Area. We are going to test-drive the area with a 6 month lease. We will have more leg room in the new place and green areas to run the dog. We are still tentative at putting down roots as Aaron's job is a contract position and we aren't committed to being in CA really, we just want to each have full-time jobs -- wherever that may be.

However, we are in beautiful San Francisco (when it's sunny) and yesterday was a perfect juxtaposition of two massive influxes of people to this city. One was Bay to Breakers, one of the biggest road races anywhere, with colorful costumes, clothing optional runners and music throughout the city. San Francisco at it's quirkiest best. Also the start of a giant convention: the American Psychiatric Association. We spoke with a couple of attendees who were wondering "what the heck is with all the costumes? Is it some kind of parade?" No, not exactly...
