We've been busy in the past few weeks adjusting to the new schedule. I started my job last week and so far everything has been great. The company I work for has a strict social networking policy. I'm not allowed to mention the company name, my job position, the location of the company or who I work with on any blog, website or online social network. I can only mention that I work for a computing company in the oil and gas industry. A lot of the tech jobs in Houston are either in the oil/gas industry or in a medical field.
Lyneth is still in the process of finding a job, but she's been getting a lot of interviews lately. It's only a matter of time before she gets and offer.

Lux at Oh My Gogi |
We've been going out to eat a lot in Houston and one of our common activities is to visit late night food trucks. Lyneth, Bo, Lux and I have been driving all over Houston in search of these elusive mobile restaurants. One that we liked below is only open from 9pm to 3am. It also has an erratic schedule, so the first time we tried to go it was in a different area.
One that we went to recently was called "Oh my gogi" and they serve Korean/Mexican fusion food that was really good. I liked the bulgogi tacos and Lyneth liked the kimchi quesadillas. There are a lot of food trucks that serve fusion food like this in Houston. I wasn't sure about this combination, but it turned out to be delicious. Lux says that he wants to open a Cambodian/Hawaiian fusion food truck after he graduates from college.

Another activity that has been taking up our time has been building a garden. When we arrived, Bo decided that he wanted to redo his garden and add lots of new plants. We planted peppers, flowers, lime trees, pineapples, mint, basil, and more. The four of us did a lot of digging in the hot Texas sun. It's in the low 90s Fahrenheit right now, so it only takes a few minutes to work up a good sweat in the garden. We are working on adding some stepping stones to the backyard and we already planted 3 different kinds of lime trees there. Hopefully they won't be killed by the intense heat.
