3 Months Later
Wow, has it really been three months since my last post on here. Yup,
I guess it has! Well, I guess I need to tell about the last few months
and then also try to post on a more regular basis.
For starters, I have settled in quite a bit in San Francisco over
these past few months. I'm really enjoying my job at UCSF and my
co-workers. The job brings new challenges for me daily, and I'm
learning how to navigate through the bureaucracy of a large academic
institution (UCSF Medical Center, UCSF School of Medicine, and UCSF
Medical Group). There are so many different entities yet all the same
company...and then of course the fact that I am a prisoner of the
State of California ie. the University of California. I've found that
many people are not big fans of Mr. Arnold, our great governor. People
think he is too conservative - meaning the people of San Francisco are
just a tad bit liberal. Who would have thunk it?
On to other things... Cristi came to visit me Aug. 11th thru the 16th.
Wow, what a great time! This was the first time I was able to explore
San Francisco with my love! We had a great time just doing the normal
touristy things... We went to see the Museum of Modern Art with the
Tuttle exhibit. We went to eat at Ben Wah, my new favorite Chinese
food spot. We also ate at Panta Rei in the North Beach area - Little
Italy. One of the best parts of Cristi's visit was our trip to Napa
Valley. Napa Valley, aka Wine Country, was just amazing seeing all the
beautiful vineyards and so many different wineries. We also stopped at
a few, taste some great wine, ate a picnic lunch, and just enjoyed a
day under the sun. We also took an afternoon to visit Pier 39 (you
have to say hello to the sea lions while at the pier) and later spent
a few minutes with our feet in the sand! All in all, it was just great
