October 2005: Moving and Changing Jobs

Why is the fall always a time of madness for us? Last year we were changing jobs, moving to Ireland, etc etc in October. This year we're moving house and Brian is changing jobs.

We've found a very nice (brand new, actually) apartment in a town called Greystones, about 20 miles south of Dublin. Although it's still being built, it will be brilliant once it's done, with limestone quarry tiles and wooden floors throughout.

In addition, Brian has taken a management role, where he'll be managing some of the UK marketing for one of the divisions of our company. He's very excited but a bit overwhelmed by it.

So October is going to be a little complicated for us.

Brian Goes Back to Edinburgh

Since Brian went to grad school in Edinburgh, it's always a city he looks forward to visiting. Two old friends, Ben & Ben, met up with Brian this autumn for a few days revisiting old haunts. Here they are in front of their old apartments, Edward Salvesen Hall -- over 400 years old and still in use today!
