Update

Things are progressing well here. I went in and filled out the paperwork for my new job that starts on Monday. I met everybody in the office and they all seem so nice, especially the team that I'm going to be working with. They really seem to want me full time instead of part time, the extra money would certainly be nice! Plus they have a whole list of stuff for me to work on, it's always nice to start a job busy.

The housing office here appearently takes forever to update residency information so we get our CA allotments, so we will be living off of our Seattle pay for a lot longer than anticipated. Hopefully they are just as slow after we move to the place after this.

We went exploring in Carmel today, pretty little touristy town. Saw some jaw dropping jewelry that was just dripping with diamonds, and so really tacky touristy stuff. There didn't seem to be much in the middle between high priced resort stuff and high priced trashy touristy stuff. The beach at Carmel is very nice however, nice deep white sand beach with good waves and not too much wind. Definitly a spot to return to with a good book, beach towel and swimsuit.

Thursday I fly up to Seattle for Lionhearts. I'm hoping everything goes well that weekend and these stupid sniffles go away quickly.
