The bay area

Dammit, I miss this place every time I come out here. Or, more to the point, I miss the people. I’ve been pathetically lazy, and despite plans otherwise (which, to be fair, the other parties couldn’t make, one flaked the other had a legit medical excuse) I never made it to the other side of the bay. I barely made it out of oakland. But I had a fabuuu time. Saturday was awesome. A 10 hour gaming party? Yes, please! Jeremy, Simon, Lili, me, , , and . Awesome. Tichu, Mu (okay, they’re not board games, whatever), a deduction game (think clue, but different), staying up late chatting. Yay.

I won’t jump ship on chicago or the gao without a job, but that’s a far cry from saying I won’t look for a job doing environmental policy in the bay area for a slightly more flexible and relaxed employer. =)
