Heaven on earth...

or for a geek.

Started work a week ago in sunny California. It is beautiful down here. I can't believe there are no clouds in the sky. I got an awesome road bike from a friend. Well awesome by my standards means better than the 100$ bikes you can get at Walmart or Canadian Tire. :D I spent over 100$ just fixing this bike to make it ridable. Who knew tubes for road bikes were so expensive or that you needed a special pump for them. XD

I also got a small cozy little studio in Mountain View, it is close enough to work that I can bike there under 20 minutes. :D Yay for California weather~

Oh yeah disclaimer here: All thoughts and comments expressed here belong to me and me alone. In no way does this reflect the views and opinions of my employer. yadda yadda. :D

The rumors are true: Work rocks! I can't believe I wake up every morning looking forward to go to work. I just wished living expenses in California weren't so expensive. I forgot a lot of things when I moved, so I ended up buying a lot of things. :(
