The weather was perfect today. Warm (but not that warm) and sunny!
On a side note, we’re sorry for the very disorganized posting of day pictures. We’re trying to play catch-up, while also attempting to not bombard people with too many posts… So, it seems a bit scattered and it seems like it’s neverending, but eventually we’ll catch up!
Our (work) parking garage has quite the view of the capitol…
(Does it annoy you as much as it annoys us when people/businesses write “capital” instead of “capitol”?)
Today I had my first Dental School interview! I interviewed at University of the Pacific, Arthur Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco. Whenever we go to the City, the trip is usually about an hour and half. This morning it took me two and half hours! It was raining and the morning traffic was horendous once I hit the Bay Area.
Today was the first time since the change in Administration that I wore a suit. I was comfortable and relaxed and ready to interview. There were only six of us today and we were the first interview day! I can’t believe I got an interview on the first day! They interview the best candidates early in the process.
I was the oldest of the interviewees. Two of us had gone to Stanford, two from USC, one from SF State, and the other from UoP, Stockton. The morning started with an Admissions Overview, where we learned more about the school and a little about what to expect for the day. Next was my faculty interview. It went very well. It was more of a conversation about the school, my experience, and some advice for the future.
I am sold on the school. Not to mention by my final year they’ll be moving to a new state of the art builing in Downtown! Now I have to wait until December 1st to know if I’ve been admitted.
I lucked out and missed the rain, but it was still wet and cold. It’s amazing how fast the weather changes!
I think there’s no denying it. It’s fall. Summer abruptly ended and I’m not thrilled about it. We can’t even eat outside at work because it’s too cold/windy… It feels like elementary school all over again…stuck inside… Except the office is freezing, not hot and stuffy. ;)
Since our new home is smaller, we don’t have much space to play fetch. Regardless, Luna finds the smaller space just fine…
I’m hoping we still have some warm October days ahead of us…
Remi has become quite the little beggar. He jumped on this chair to beg for some cookies (that we subsequently returned because they were making the dogs sick).
Dinner with the family… Joaquin didn’t want to pose for pictures, but he agreed to go outside with Mommy and the tractor. Don’t you love his boots?
The owners of the home we’re renting tried to seem organized. They left labels all around the house… In areas that I don’t think need labels (twin size bed linens, breakfast and really… office supplies?).
We think it sounds like a euphemism for “junk drawer.”
Since we’re so far behind on publishing the posts, we’re dreading playing catch up. The Internet and cable are hooked up, but we still have to do plenty of unpacking and cleaning.
We also bought a groupon many months ago for mypublisher that expires today. So for the past three days, I’ve been feverishly going through and editing our pictures from Maui and have to finish the photo book tonight. Fun.
Luna got mad at something (maybe a bird or cat or even a plastic bag?) and was on edge for the rest of the evening… barking at everything. She always barks at things that are out of place (like a new satellite dish), so I try to ignore her “warnings”.
