The kids are growing up

[mdlbear]

... at least one of them, anyway. The Older Daughter, chaoswolf, has landed a job with the Democratic Party as an annoying person who knocks on your door and asks for money a canvasser. Their office is in San Francisco, and roaringmouse and household have graciously offered crash space. I'm giving the Wolf my spare wireless router to take up as a hospitality gift. (I bought two of them on sale at Fry's, under the impression that I could put Linux on them. One is now up in the garage as a range extender; the other has been languishing in a box in the office.)

This means that one of my kids is leaving home, and even though it's not very far and the job only runs through November, it's still a milestone. I'm very proud of her; our Wolfie has not hitherto been known to be particularly adventurous. It would not surprise me much to find her staying on in San Francisco; it's a wonderful city.

Well, the moving out part was not intentional, I assure you. Neither was landing the job with the DNC, until last night. I was sort of hoping the job @ Restoration Hardware would come first, and hoping that it'd work. At least that way I'd be able to go back to school in September...Now it doesn't seem likely somehow.

As for the staying on in SF, I might. We shall see. :-p

Yee Gads... The Mouse's House is growing. Not only my youngun as a teenager, but her friend who is home schooled is coming down at weeks at a time for appointments with the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry. So Uncle Craig will be the only human male. Estrogen Rules.. giggle
