San Francisco as Google Sees It July 15, 2005
Posted by Owen in : Life , add a commentOk, you asked for it, here it is. A Google Earth picture of my new pad. Pretty, snazzy, eh?
I’ve only been at the new place for a few days, but I like it already. It’s in Nob Hill (near Russian Hill) and just up the street from a whole slew of shops and restaurants. In my bedroom I have two windows: one faces the bay and the other has a good view of the city. Of course, to get such a good view the place is on top of hill, but I’ll build some good leg muscles walking around so it’s all good. It has hard wood floors and a great kitchen. The only problem with the place is that the walls give new definition to paper-thin. The neighbors were unbearably noisy for a while and we were getting very concerned, but they’re quieter now (and good looking too!)
I’d show you real pictures, but unfortunately I accidentally erased the memory card for my digital camera. I think I can restore the files, but not until I get back to SF. Well OK, gotta run, more later.
Oh, while you’re at it… read my roommate’s blog.
Starting Fresh… July 7, 2005
Posted by Owen in : Life , 9commentsIt’s official. I quit my job and I’m moving to San Francisco and going full time with my business. This is something I’ve dreamed of for a long time and it’s finally happening. I’m going to miss Southern California, my co-workers, my folks and friends, but I won’t miss the LA traffic or having to work all day. I really have a unique opportunity here and I plan to make the most of it.
I’ll post more details later.
