Or at least as official as these things get...
We're leaving the Bay Area.
My husband only interviewed for one job in the Bay Area and we just found out that they're not going to make him an offer.
Don't know where we're going or when we're leaving (yet), but we're not staying here.
Right now, I'm a little disappointed but mostly, I'm excited. I've enjoyed living here, but let's face it... it's extremely expensive. And since grad school ended, our social circle has disintegrated somewhat. Besides, we've spent the last nine years living with a major geological fault in our backyard. That can't be good.
I will, however, miss the grass cutting goats. (They use goats to reduce the brush and wildfire danger on the hillsides here.)
Postscript: I almost forgot to mention, in honor of our impending move, we played hooky yesterday and went skiing at Lake Tahoe! Do you think they'll let us take Squaw Valley with us when we move?

"take Squaw valley with us" ...no but you can visit and check up on the hill at http://unofficialsquaw.com
this job searching is brutal, eh? not only for the searcher, but for the partner too - idly waiting at home to discover their fate. i'm kidding (sort of) because i know you get some say in this, but really i do think most spouses feel pretty helpless during this time.
so do you feel better because at least you know something? or is it worse since there is a whole lot more you don't know?
you were never really a california girl, right? i'm headed to new york, just fyi ;)
