A few things have happened

Well it has been a little while since my last post. I think that this post will explain that situation.

I probably will not get this in order but hopefully it will be fairly close.

I went to Vermont for the wedding which was nice.

Went to CA to find a place to live. That was a tiring experance. We had a realator take us around Ventura to look at appartments and then called everyone with any ad about apartments in Carpinteria. We looked at a few places in Carp and found a nice one fairly near the beach for a reasonable price and signed the lease (well it actually got a bit complicated since we wanted someone to look at it before signing, but in the end it worked out). We also got a tour of Santa Barbara from my Uncle Len. (We means Susanna and I).

Went back to Boston - barely even remember this - I think I mostly packed up some stuff and got my stuff out of the way of my new suite mate.

Went to PA where we just hung out and at one point saw Robin and some of Susanna's friends.

Went to Greece. We first went to Lemnos (not sure about sp). Well first we went to Athens and stayed the night since our flight was canceled due to a strike. The island was very nice and we had a lot of fun going to the beach and walking around the little town. Then we went to Athens where we saw some nice ruins. Maybe one day when I get internet access from home I will come back and add in some more detail.

Flew back to PA. The next morning saw Swarthmore's little 4th of July parade. Then headed to Boston where the next day the movers came and packed everything up. Then the next day headed out to my new home in CA.

The move has been going fairly well. At first it wasn't so nice staying in an empty apartment, but I got a mattress and a new car fairly fast so that helped and then it helped a lot when Susanna showed up. There are still a few things to come, such as verizon didn't realize that when I ordered DSL I actually wanted to put in an order for DSL so it will be a while before we get that and our stuff isn't supposed to arrive till the 25th so we are doing laundry fairly frequently.

Work is going alright - fairly well setup in my new cube, although my first assignment isn't so exciting, but I doubt it will last more than another week or two and then I can hopefully move onto something real.

Well I should get back to work.
