That’s right, after only about 2 months of living at the last apartment, I’ve found a new place to hang my hat, kick back and work some more after the time at the office is done. All things considered it’s definitely an upgrade in space and situation. The previous lady I was living with, Susan, was really nice and welcoming, but as we both knew would come, I felt that I needed to find a place with someone more my age. Plus, it totally doesn’t suck that this place is last than a mile down the road from work which means it’s just down the road from an Apple store, a Borders, tons of coffee shops, restaurants, and about as much excitement as can be found in Palo Alto.
Lucky for me I was having a brew with a co-worker on my team and her boyfriend when I met another co-worker that happened to be moving out to our office in Dublin and needed somebody to take over his lease. It’s definitely a decent place that just needed a little TLC when I moved in and I’ve quickly gotten settled in to try and make it my own. My roommate is an engineer at facebook by the name of Eric. He’s from the east coast (Vermont) as well so it’s cool that he can appreciate humidity and the warmth of the Atlantic ocean.
Overall it’s not a huge upgrade but nevertheless it’s still a step forward and I’m really glad I took it. I’ll be taking some photos and video pretty soon to give all of you a better understanding of where I’m running around these days. For now, think of it as the closest duplicate of Park Ave. Where Rollins is, we have Standford, where Sakura Sushi is, there’s Facebook (well, one of the 10 or o buildings) and then on the opposite end of the strip is where I live. So there’s a lot going on in a small area.
Email me if you want the new address to mail me some cookies or notes about how much you miss and love me :)
Cheers!
