Luckily the salaries are in line (somewhat) with the cost. > What's The Blue Envelope?? You probably have gotten my explanation on the list. I highly recommend having everything together in advance to hand to a prospective landlord, and with an element that makes it a bit memorable (hence, the envelope). Your competition will be a bunch of people with dot-com business cards stapled neatly onto their rental resumes. Yawn. My advice: come as quickly as possible, because you will LOVE IT!!!

Hey, Leslie - Welcome to California! Good job on the apartment-hunting - you certainly were lucky!! Can you now reveal the magazine for which you will be toiling? Well, as soon as you are settled I think there are a bunch of us NorCal folks who would like to get together. How handy that you have given us an excuse to do so - would we have ever done it without you? (come on, Stephen, Bill, Rob...?) Keep us posted and if you want to e-mail me privately use leechurchill@earthlink.net. (anyone else in Northern Cal who wants to get together - or help plan the get-together - can do so, for that matter) Good luck getting moved in and don't get lost in IKEA! (I live in Oakland - - right near Emeryville - and have yet to set foot in that monstrosity of a place!!) Oh, isn't this supposed to be a Basia list?!? I did hear Basia in an Albertson's store the other night...I think it was "Baby, You're Mine." Ciao!!
