Mom Dybenko in Canada’s top 100 Most Powerful Women for 2008
This week there was a reception at Wilfrid Laurier to celebrate her top 100 award. It was amazing to see her in her element and see the impact she’s having at that school. See photos and press links
A Great Weekend
After my hectic first week of work and completing my 3D drawing software training course in San Jose it was finally time to relax and enjoy the city with Christen. We spent the morning and afternoon apartment hunting as we need to be moving out in 2 weeks and we saw a few places [...]
This guy just called me … almost exactly
I just got a call asking me if I wanted to subscribe to the San Francisco Chronicle and the guy on the other end seemed like this exact guy. He kept asking me for my name and was like “Christen? Christen!!! That’s a pretty name, Christen! So you wanna buy the paper??” (You have to [...]
We live in a Van down by the River (Bay)!
As Christen mentioned in her earlier post… we spent last night in our rental van down by the river (or bay is it were)! (Too early to joke about with with Christen?)
The rental car facility had no record of our 30 day reservation and had no available cars so we had to get a van [...]
A shakey start
We arrived in SFO last night at 10:50 PST and it took us about 2 hours to get luggage, Parker and the rental car which apparently hadn’t been booked for us. We arrived at Clay Park Towers at 1:00 PST (now having been traveling for 23 hrs) and the corporate suites were locked.
Jesse and I [...]
The longest week
Jesse here, writing my first post after sneaking the Mac away from that blog-hog Christen :)
This past week has been so busy and hectic and today has seemed to have lasted forever already but we are finally waiting for our final flight from Newark, NJ to San Francisco. I know that all of the stress [...]
Parker’s Flight Tag
It was hard walking away from Parker this morning at 7am. She really didn’t like it in the crate. Anyways, I thought I’d post up her name tag cause I know Rachel really wanted to see it! :) Best viewed large.
Landed in Newark.
We’re at the Brooklyn Brewery in the Newark airport after a 1 hr nap from Toronto. The tables are sticky and they only have half of what’s on the menu to serve. Starving.
It’s super hot here 92 degrees. We know Parkers nearby but we won’t sill her until we both land in SF. Hope she [...]
Through customs!
Two hours from start to finish. My flight turned out to be booked for 5pm from Toronto but we got it switched. Now we’re just sitting at the gate waiting to board for our 1:55pm take off.
Jesse had to show all his documents, but there was no interview. Now he can just relax.
Apparently, everyone feels [...]
Our first post
We just dropped Munchie off at the cargo bay and we’re sitting at the Williams Cafe near the airport. We’re excited for the day, but exhausted just thinking about the flights ahead.
We’ll post more pictures later… and probably more posts cause we’re BORED.
Also, this is probably the only post where we’ll write as “we”. :)
