Moving update.

Away we go, moving again! This time, the destination is Cupertino.

Is this really happening?

UPDATE (10am): The flood at our new place was caused from junk in the pipes that haven’t been used for 2 months while renovations have been happening. The people above us had a shower this morning at 7:00am and all of their shower water filled up our tub, which then overflowed. Thankfully, it wasn’t as [...]

Moving Day Photos

Well, our stuff has arrived. Pretty much all of it is unharmed. A few scratches here and there. Now we have to figure out where to put it all!  A major edit is in need as you’ll see in the photos. Maybe some time next week I’ll be able to post pictures of a more [...]

Moving day tomorrow!

Sorry it’s been a while since we’ve posted an update. This past week has been crazy! We are finally having our stuff delivered to our new place tomorrow morning. Tonight, we went to the apartment to do the apartment inspection and everything looks in good shape.  We’re excited to move! Jesse is asleep on the [...]

Real calamari is gross!!!

Today we went to the beach with Parker. On the way back, we stopped at a small restaurant called Liverpool Lil’s.  We should have asked to see the menu before we ordered our drinks because everything on the menu was seafood (and we aren’t big fans yet). We decided to order deep fried calamari.  It [...]

iPhone Day

We finally went and bit the bullet and stood in the LONG iPhone line.  Jesse’s iPhone is in the mail, but he didn’t take long to find the LightSaber application and try it on mine!  Check Facebook for my new number and SMS me.

GDAS – Great success!

Today I cut a big fat cashier’s check to lease our new place on Nob Hill. Tomorrow morning we finalize the deal and sign the lease.  What a relief!  We’ll try to post some photos of it when we can get inside to look around and take measurements.  Jesse had already booked all of our [...]

The Great Dybenko Apartment Search (GDAS)

We haven’t taken too many photos lately.  We’ve been up to our eyeballs in the Great Dybenko Apartment Search. Too many of the places we found that were affordable and seemed “too perfect” were in fact in the higher homicide areas. Thankfully someone tipped us off to this nice little san francisco homicide map. We [...]

Celebrity Sighting (They’re just like us!)

I just had to write a post about what many would consider a minor celebrity sighting that Christen and I had last night.  We were down in a little area of San Francisco called Noe (No-ee) Valley looking for a place to live.  After looking around the area for a while we stopped at a [...]

Not always hunky dorey.

I looked back through our posts today and realized how “sugar coated” it all must sound.  This is going to be a realy “debby downer” of a post. I think we (jess and i) want to sound like we have it all together and life is rosey.  Honestly though, these first few weeks have been [...]
