Calling San Diego PSers!

[researcher]

Considering how great it was to meet up with the L.A./OC PSers a couple of weeks ago and the requests in the L.A./OC Thread for a San Diego get together, I decided to start this thread to see who would be interested, and where we''d like to meet up. I think it would be really fun to meet for lunch and possibly set up an appointment with one of the local jewelers

So, without further ado, who would be interested in getting together, when, and where?

I look forward to meeting more SoCal girls (and boys if any are interested!)

 

[tawn]

I''m game!

 

[researcher]

Yea!

Hopefully we''ll get a big group.

 

[zhuzhu]

Wonderful! What part of SD are you moving to?

 

[zhuzhu]

I will have a post doc position w/ either UCSD or Scripps, hopefully I will get a housing near the compus. Do you work in one of the SD fabulous institutions?

 

[researcher]

I used to work for Scripps (only for about a year), but now I work for a consulting firm in La Jolla. There are SOOO many great apartments/condos around UCSD/Scripps for young professionals that you will not have trouble finding a good one. I used to commute from Del Mar/Carmel Valley, and it took me a whole 10 minutes to get to work!

You''re going to love the area.

 

[zhuzhu]

I would love to ask you more about SD researcher enviorement when we meet (you are RESEARCHER!!!

).

What jewlry store do you have in mind for our PSer "bling fantacy"?

 

[researcher]

My favorites are Jessop''s Jewelers, Harold Stevens, and Coin Mart (this one has an odd name, but it''s a great store and they even do the Gemprints). But, we could do La Jolla and hit Cartier and the other boutique and estate stores.

And of course we can talk research in the area

What are you doing your post doc research in? If I remember correctly, you too are a Ph.D., but in genetics? Is that right or am I way off base?

 

[Dancing Fire]

wish i could afford the housing in SD. beautiful weather yr round.

 

[researcher]

Come visit, DF! You know we''d welcome you

You can always live on the beach--literally. With the warm weather who needs a house?

 

[zhuzhu]

Cartier

?? I have not been into one since I left NYC in early 1990''s. Also, what are gemprints? I am sure your opinions are the way to go!

Yep, genetic epid is what i do. Got to take advantage of the human genome project. What was your doctoral research in? I take that it was basic science of some sort? Are you still working in the similiar area?

 

[researcher]

Gemprints are finger prints of diamonds: http://www.gemprint.com/home.htm.

My Ph.D. is in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, with an emphasis in Leadership and Large-Scale Change. Quite a mouthful, huh?

 

[zhuzhu]

How cool. how did your doctoral work fit into Scripps? Aren''t they a basic science research institute?

 

[researcher]

I worked at Scripps Clinic, in their HR department

 

[researcher]

I''m busy until the weekend of June 24th and Zhuzhu won''t be here until July, so maybe we can plan something for the 8th/9th of July. We could also plan one in June if enough people are interested.

What is everyone elses availability?

 

[Pearberry]

I want to go too, but I live in L.A. It was too bad I missed the OC/SD thread.

 

[researcher]

I just went to lookup Cartier on their website, and it''s not listed. Am I crazy? I swear I''ve been to one on Girard. I will see if it''s still there when I go for my haircut today. If it''s no longer there, at least there''s C.J. Charles!

As for restaurants, Jose''s is a good choice if you like Mexican. If you don''t like Mexican there''s Roppongi, Zenbu, etc.

 

[blueroses]

Saddy sad sad!!! I will be on tour the whole month of July

And I live in LJ!!

Well that''s ok. I will still take part in the chit-chat and come to the NEXT one!!

On Prospect there is Jose''s and Alfonso''s, but my FAVORITE is Su Casa on La Jolla Blvd. That''s like my soul food!!

There are a bunch of jewelry stores on Proscpect but I don''t know whether or not there''s a Cartier.

I have never been to Coin Mart and now I''m intrigued!!!


And speaking of Jessop''s.....when I went to pick up my ring they had a FOUR carat EC (just off square, STUNNING) with trap sides and double claw prongs that had just come in that I got to play with. YUM YUM YUM YUM!!!!! Love their estate stuff too.

 

[blueroses]

p.s. Researcher, where do you cut your hair on Girard?

 

[Dodger Gurl]

Ack! I''d love to but that is too far for me to drive (I hate long drives!) Researcher I didn''t know you lived in SD. Wow, so glad you were able to come out for the LA/OC one!!! I wish wish WISH I could go, but I can''t.

 

[zhuzhu]

I am actually flying into San Diego June 23 (Friday)and will drive up to LA for my work Sunday June 25. So maybe we can meet Sat. June 24 so Bluerose can join us? Any taker?

Also, I will be visiting my FI in SD all available weekends in July and August, if 6/24 does not work out.

 

[blueroses]

June 24 I will be in LA for a friend''s baby shower

But now that there are so many San Diegans on PS I know I''ll make it to a GTG even if it''s not this one!!

How could I forget Su Casa? That place is delicious!!!

 

[researcher]

I actually go to Model Call Salon (Kelly does my hair (her website is http://www.hairbyreeves.com/), but I figured that, being in La Jolla, I could do a drive by. Unfortunately, I completely forgot to do it! I''ll have to check it out later in the week

There''s always the train, you know....

I wish you could join us too.

The only reason I made it to the L.A. one is I had to drop my hubby off for a dive trip. I may make it to other L.A. GTGs though because my brother and lots of friends from college live up that way, and I do consulting up there. For me it just depends on how far north the GTG is as I too hate long drives.

Too bad! But, there will be others

 

[researcher]

So who's in for July, and which weekend works best?

 

[researcher]

So, right now we're looking at the 8th/9th in La Jolla. Who can make that date? If you can't, please suggest another date
