The Bunnies have landed

Well, I've been in San Francisco since Thursday, trying to get myself settled. The facade of my place is in the picture to the left. The entrance to my apartment is to the left of the staircase.

I've scouted out the standard grocery stores, Asian groceries, and drug stores. I hit up Bed, Bath and Beyond for the random accoutrements necessary to organize one's crap, and I got my temporary parking permit today. Hitting the DMV on Thursday--I even made an appointment.

I'm waiting for a fancy vertical bike rack to arrive in the mail, and I'm picking a great leather chair tomorrow. I put books in a cool Craigslist-purchased bookshelf with glass doors.



I bought a mattress and am awaiting a delivery date--I hope it fits through the door, even with a split box spring. The first two pieces of furniture in my apartment are my little Bunnies, the red leather swivel barstools you can see in the picture! It's nice to have a place to sit, especially a chic place.

On Saturday, I took a phenomenal bike ride out to Tiburon. I printed out a cue sheet from the Velo Bella website and followed it. Out across the Golden Gate Bridge, through Sausalito, out to Tiburon and looping back through Sausalito--it was about 41 miles with a few good hills, but nothing so bad that would make me cry for a granny gear. I could see the bay during about 60% of the ride! Insane!
