Moving House and Work
It’s busy at the Patterico household nowadays. We are preparing for a move to our new house on Saturday. What’s more, I have been transferred from downtown to the Compton courthouse, where I have worked before, effective Monday. (In our office, transfers happen every few years.)
I am pleased with the work transfer. Though I will miss downtown, I will be doing the same work with a much shorter commute. I will be in a courthouse I am familiar with, with colleagues I know and like, and will work for bosses with good reputations. But it’s a lot to have happen all at once.
In the meantime, if you know anyone who is interested in a four-level townhome in Marina del Rey that is a block and a half from the beach (you can walk there in your bare feet), feel free to have them e-mail me at patterico AT patterico DOT com.
Is there no justice? Such a view and now you have to give it up? Enjoy house hunting again.

As someone that moved to a new house about 1 year ago, I can warn you prepare to paint the entire interior, and be ready for some landscaping work among other things.
I enjoy that kind of stuff though.
Dwilkers (a1687a) — 2/2/2006 @ 9:03 amIf you find a buyer for your townhouse via the blog, does that mean that you’ll be able to deduct the expenses of the blog as a real estate deduction?
Dana (3e4784) — 2/2/2006 @ 10:39 amdude, if I could afford it, I’d email you in a heartbeat. But there’s no way in heck I could….
Plus that would mean we’d have to buy another car, as Hubby would have to drive to work.
caltechgirl (fbed6f) — 2/2/2006 @ 12:34 pmI wish you good luck in both your move and your new job location. That worked well eh? Plan it that way?
Say hi to PV…I miss it very much.

The three most traumatic events that typically occur in a person’s life (discounting actual tragedies or catastrophes) are moving, changing jobs, and remarrying: you’ve got two of those going simultaneously (well, 1.5, since you’re only being transferred).
So whatever you do, don’t start looking for a second wife!
