I got moved into my apartment yesterday and transfered the stuff from my temporary housing today. As I was walking across my new courtyard my way was blocked by ten or twelve people taking swings at a pinata for Cinco de Mayo. I put down my suitcases to watch the show and am immediately informed that it was my turn. So I was blindfolded and spun and made a few pathetic swings. They went out of there way to make me feel welcome. I happened to have a few leftover ciders in my suitcase and passed them around to my new friends. As a bonus, at least half were nerds; Amazon, Microsoft, and Google were all represented. After the pinata candy was all eaten I went up to one their apartments to play Rock Band and Scene It on the Xbox for an hour. I'm really happy to have started meeting some people...
Tomorrow I report to work at 8:30 for orientation. Yeeha!

congrats.
Great start for a new adventure.
Now your apartment will be even more "better" for you, on top of the distance to work and food choices.
I look forward to reading more about your adventures out there! KC
Glad to hear you're off to a good start in Seattle.
