Yeah, I have a good friend who lives in Hoboken. Twenty minutes on the train to Manhattan, and much cheaper. She seems to like it, but I don't know more than that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I used to live in Hoboken, right by the City, and then reverse-commute to interior NJ. It's doable.

Heh. You'd think y'all wanted me to move to New York! :) I'll keep that in mind. I know here in DC, it's a lot harder to reverse-commute by public transport--sure, if you're on the lines, there are trains, but they run less often, or the connecting busses do, or whatever.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ain't nothing cheaper than Philly. At least, not in a northeastern city. And it's decent enough, AND close to both DC and NYC!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Lake Oswego (wait, I KNOW that's cool, Cass lives there!)It is! And I never even got to show you most of it. (And the commute into Portland's downtown is easy.)
Heh. You'd think y'all wanted me to move to New York! :)Do not want.
Want you to move to Portland, obviously .

OMG, Best Week Ever just reminded me about "Trapped In The Closet" by R. Kelly, and that month when I had to sing the narration of everything I was doing. "And I'm making some copies! Making the copies!!"

Better more than just a mom. Like, a harried mother of a serial killer who's on the run.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
many many many of the pharma co's around here are in South San Francisco. harder commute from the east bay but then there are a bunch of them in the East bay here. Depending on what you do , it isn't horrid finding a job around here - but commutes can be brutal if you change jobs

Also, Kat, re: the possible job, is there any way you'd be able to eventually move closer to it? So that it might just be like, a year of bad commute or something?
I don't think after a year it will matter because I fervently hope not to be in LA after one more year. I can't stand it here anymore. Of course, this is dependent on what happens with my kids etc etc, but yeah.
