Welcome to California and let me be the first to remind you to conserve water!

Believe me—you're not the first. :)

Thank you for the welcome! ^__^

You were everywhere. :)

Thank you for the good wishes! I'm hoping for continued good news.

It seems as though you have had a smashing time, and I'm glad of it! I really must do the research and try to make it next year, having had such a wonderful time at FE. ^__^

I highly recommend it, though I must warn you that it's not cheap, irrespective of airfare. I hope to see you. :)

Glad the first week has gone well! *hugs*

*hugs back* Let's hope weeks 2 though infinity go well, also. :)

Glad to see everything is going well! Make sure you scope out all the tasty food places for us to try out!!

I'm doing my best! This will take some time. :)

I saw you in the Dead Dog Pub crowd and then you disappeared before I could give hugs. :(

I was so sorry that I never found you again. It was odd that I never bumped into you the entire weekend until the very end. :(

I hope you had a wonderful time! Next year will perhaps be less hectic.

Happy to hear that your first week on the job in San Francisco went swimmingly well!

Good luck in finding affordable housing in San Fran! I've heard the housing prices are through the roof (hence multiple furries occupying the same house in order to pay for the rent/mortgage).

It must be a huge transition to go from upstate New York to a sprawling metropolis like San Francisco! I've always loved San Fran. My favourite spot is Hawk Hill, located north of the Golden Gate Bridge in the Marin Headlands. Just LOVE the view of San Francisco on top of Hawk Hill. You must visit this place when you get the chance and take some photos for me. :)

All the best to you, Soba! I hope to see you again at a future furry convention -- maybe Midwest FurFest if it's on your itinerary for early December.

Take care!

Thank you for all the good wishes, and for the tip! I'll see if I can get up there when I have some extra time.

MFF is tentatively on my itinerary, but getting away for it might be a little troublesome. I'll see how my job goes and hopefully it won't be a problem and I will see you there. :)

Hello neighbor! Hopefully you find a place to live soon! And perhaps after you're all settled in we can meet up finally!

I can't wait to see you. ^__^

BE SAFE OUT THERE!!!

NO! I CREATE MORTAL DANGER WHEREVER I GO.

Watch it! I'll draw you as a care bear X-D

The emblem on my belly will be a blood-soaked flipped table.

Cousin of Grumpy bear you are ;)

That's that you made it without a hitch.

For a little while, it looked like I might be moving into New York! Things went in a direction I didn't expect.

I am glad you made it across the country safe! And hope the job stays awesome for you!

Thank you for all your wonderfully kind support. I'm hoping for great things here. :)

And I hope you're doing awesome, yourself!

Yay! Welcome!

It's good to know that you're gonna move out to the suburbs later on. As much as I love San Francisco weather (because I like it cold) it's bloody expensive to live there. One good thing about it is that there's public transport all over the place, so you won't have to walk excessively or even worse, drive within the city.

But in general the Bay Area has fantastic weather. It's one of the reasons why it's pricier to live here. We hope to meet ya soon!

PS. I'm craving those little macarons now.

Soon, there shall be bears, macarons, and lots of silliness. :)

I really look forward to seeing you. It will need to wait a little bit while I get settled, but I suspect the time will fly.

GLAD you're doing well... and I was and am HONOURED to have spent part of my AC with you. (^_^)

Thank you for joining us! I honestly had the time of my life this year. :)

Glad to hear things seem to be moving along well. I wish you the best of luck out there. As always, it was great seeing you at AC again! :)

All is indeed well! Hopefully it will stay that way for a long while.

AC was a blast. I wish we could have spent more time together, but I'm always grateful for the time we do have. As of next year, you and I will have known each other for 20 years. Scary, huh? :)

welcome to the sunny california!!! :D always nice to hear from you!! maybe we can meet finally after all this time!! *big bear hugs* i am happy you are safe and sound and things are working well.

I very much look forward to seeing you when we're able to arrange it. :)

Things are looking good! I'm still getting settled, but I think it will all work out.

Soba, ALL the congratulation and ALL the well deserved triumph and boon to you! I knew you could do it, you are too unique and lovable soul not to be benefited with the reward of your compassionate attitude, and your perseverance. Mat things only forever look up and in your favor!!!! YOU EARNED IT.

I'll feel better after things start getting more firmed up, since I'm still looking for permanent housing, but I'm at least making progress!

Thank you very much for all of your kindness. I'll see if I can sneak up north sometime to bother you. :)

YOU BETTER SNEAK UP NORTH!
And I'll house you for the stay as well. It's a comfy den in my place anyways- you can slumber away! :P

Oh wow! I'm late to say welcome to California! I first lived in Pittsburg (bay point train stop), and grew up stone the area! Went to uni in SF as well! :D I'll be there for a day or two on my trip, huzzah! Really happy for you!!!

Thank you very much! I had no idea you were from around here. :) I'm looking at moving to the Walnut Creek area once I get settled (I think), just a bit south of Pittsburg.

I do hope your trip is a wonderful one. Be safe!
