Well, I’m moving to San Francisco.

Yes dear friends, it’s true. I’ve got two weeks of work to finish up here in LA, then I’m headed up North to search for apartments. Once I’ve secured a place, I’ll come back down, grab my stuff and hit the 5 North, past Cowschwitz, and on into the Bay Area.

Speaking of BAY AAAREAAA! I’ve been listening to a lot of E-40 to indoctrinate myself. I’ve already adjusted the gearing on my bike for the hills, so between those two things, I’d say I’m ready to roll. I start my new job March 3. Stoked.

    Sweet, I got here 3 weeks ago. It’s been COLD, WET and WINDY. So prepare yourself. LA weather has totally spoiled me.

  3. Jesse!

    Welcome to the City! where’d you pick up a job?

    also, once you live here, you can sell your car!

    TOTAL COMMITMENT!

    Congratulations Sally!

    Any chance we’ll be able to catch up at SxSW this year? I’d love to hear about your new gig…

  8. Sally ala Fixpert

    Thanks all. Yeah, I’ll tell you folks about my job next time we rap in person. I like to not be public about where I’m working on Fixpert.

    @Jesse, I’m definitely selling my car. I’m so happy about that.

    @Huphtur, I didn’t know you were up there now, that’s awesome. Guess I haven’t been on the Board in a while, you prolly mentioned it there. See you up North in a few weeks!

    Oh, freakin’ SWEET! I’m jealous.

    Welcome to the Foggy Cold. :) SF is definitely a city you come to love quickly. My trip to NY spoiled me though as their mass transit is really really good. Don’t be afraid to look along the Caltrain / BART lines for apartments as well. It can be cheaper than the city, and sometimes just as accessible.

    No doubt Tiny S! That rules. Yr starting the same day as Nat is flying again! You need to gear up to bomb those hills on the push skate son!

    Congratulations! I’m sure you’ll enjoy it there. I skated those banks pictured above when we were there, then I found out later that cops have beaten up people for doing just that. Oops! Good luck.

    Hey Sally, I’m a fan of your blog!

    I had to drop a comment on this one, because I’m so freaking jealous, I can’t stand it. I’m a NorCal at heart, and The City is my city, my home. It’s captivating and romantic. I know she’ll (SF) treat you well. Watch out for the traffic on Van Ness! I almost lost my neck there.
