I love Rockridge, Nora (although I was in Berkeley). It would be an easy commute to the UCB campus, but be forewarned that there is a hiring freeze there now because of the budget situation.

yeah, I'm thinking private schools at this point. Our business School is a peer of Hass at Stanford, so I am wondering if it would be possibly to work something out through the grapevine here.

also, heh, Ridgerock, Rockridge- I didn't even realize what I'd done for a while. I knew I *mean* Rockridge.
javachik, awesome article! I really am leaning toward Oakland at this point. It just sounds like a cool, diverse, up and coming, cheaper area. Like Somerville 15-20 years ago (but with more black people).

Cool! I can go and take pictures of stuff and break into houses or whatever.

So should I move West too? What's the job market like?
FUCK YES! Ahem. I mean, yes, you should consider it. Of course by West I mean Los Angeles, the Pasadena area is lovely.
As for job market, the heck if I know, but my business has been growing at a pretty good rate for the last 18 months.

Cute Oakland apartments:
Ad for a SF apartment in a neighborhood I like (the Zmayems' if I am not mistaken) for similar money:

I saw my recent cable bill and found out I'd been charged for a service visit. Do they always charge for service visits? The guy was supposed to come between 4 and 6, and he came right at or after 6. I don't know if that gives me fair cause to bitch.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You should complain if no one told you there was going to be a charge.
I don't pay Charter to come fix things that are wrong with their cable. I end up arguing a lot.
