Yes, yes, I’m here. I know I’ve been quiet, but I’ve been busy… adjusting. Plus unpacking and setting up my wireless network (and computer system) at home. Things are looking pretty good now.
Such a big shake-up (moving from NYC to the Bay Area) is great for getting the cobwebs out of one’s brain. It’s funny how the little things — once accomplished on autopilot — require so much attention. Things like getting to work, figuring out what to wear every day (new weather patterns, new routines, plus clothes all packed up), deciding where and how to shop. Here’s hoping life and work benefit from the fresh perspective.
Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and took the time to think about what’s worth being thankful for. Being newbies in the area, and without family around, we ate out at One Market in SF (discovered via OpenTable.com). Lots of reasons to give thanks: safe trip cross country, having a wonderful family and friends, etc.
Now, as I set about getting plugged into the biz world around here, I’m planning to attend the Mary Hodder-organized Berkeley Blogger dinner Susan Mernit posted about. Hope to attach faces to names there.
UPDATE: I’m a bad blogger. Didn’t make it to the dinner last night, unfortunately. By the time 7 p.m. rolled around I was mentally exhausted (have been making it into work around 7:30 a.m.). I think a little more adjusting (and a little rest) is in order before I venture out.
