So here I am back in the SF Bay Area. What goes around, etc. In related news, I’m employed again, so that’s good. The first week on the job was good; I am looking forward to making the second week even better.

We found a house up in Redwood City, which gives me a half an hour commute to Palo Alto for work and puts us in reasonable range of the city. It’s also pretty convenient to 280, which makes Santa Cruz and San Jose very feasible. I like the location — hadn’t ever lived up there before but I think we’ll enjoy it. Fingers crossed.

Hobee’s is still Hobee’s. Fry’s is still Fry’s. There are good farmers markets which I wasn’t smart enough to take advantage of the last time I lived here. Kepler’s has gone way downhill, which is sad.

Housewarming party to come as soon as we get settled.

On the plus side, extrapolating from the last two moves puts your next job in Hawaii.

...or Juneau.

I did consider that! But then I realized that this would mean that the distance of the moves is generally increasing, and at some point you'll be forced to circle the globe more than once as part of a move.

Oh, wow! How did I miss that you were moving back to the area? It'll be nice to see you again.

Welcome back!

If Chris were still working on the peninsula we would have been looking at Redwood City. It's a nice town. ("Climate Best by Government Test")

Yes! We saw the sign declaring it so!

A half-hour commute from RWC to PA?? Are you joking??

Also, if you have a housewarming party before i do, it will be a brand of shame upon my family.

I totally miss Redwood City. If the housing market didn't have us stapled here like an industrial strength staple gun and the addition of super glue, epoxy and reinforced concrete, I'd totally be looking to move back up there.

Didn't Kyle end up in Redwood city?

Redwood City sounds like a made-up video game city, I'd be on the lookout for zombies
