Bunkers, Bricks, and Trails

I feel that I owe this blog big time. I remember feeling upset whenever I go to Jonatha Brooke's site and not find any new journal entries....and now I am riding on guilt over how I have been treating this one...so I want to make ammends.

Today marks the first week of working for my new employer, and it was a busy one. I was in an offsite training for two days this week at Mountain View, and the other three days was getting plugged-in at the office, with projects, and just plain getting to know people. I've had to reorient myself with the Redwood Shores area again, and I have to admit it felt a little weird working in Oracle's backyard.

I was on the Mahjong table all week, too. My friends and I have all caught the bug on this game and we just love it (no, we don't play for money.....not yet anyway). My mom had also recently become really amused at this game lately, too, so I've played with her as well. Playing Mahjong is like playing Poker (which I also like....thanks to the Travel Channel's WPT tournament coverage) as you try play the players and your hand.

Yesterday we went on the bike trail at Lake Chabot. We really didn't know what to expect and had some rather funny surprises....yes, it was harder than we could manage so we had to turn back at some point. But it was fun and with other turns and possible paths, I don't see why we wouldn't come back again someday.

So finally I've reached Sunday and hopefully I'll get to do a lot of housekeeping....including my online ones....like this blog.....peace, ok?

Last Day of Work in the City

This is my last day work in the city.

I loved working in the city....riding BART and reading the San Francisco Chronicle cover to cover, I' discovered so much beyond the sports and business sections :)...read about wine, local news, and even home & garden :)

I will miss working in the city
I will miss the noise
I will miss the walks
I will miss the time that passes ever so differently

goodbye.
