Thank you guys !
Idiot me decided to go shopping last nite, found the suit & shoes, got home by 9:30, up until 4 am packing and various other shit. Up at 6 am to catch the 9 am flight, land at 11:30 am PST, 1 hr to get car, get checked in. Interview at 1:30. About half way thru the flight I start freaking out that they are going to give me a written test on databases so I dig up a couple of notes I had w/ me and then frantically look up some other stuff online prior to the interview. THen I miss my turn & 15 min late for the interview. Meantime my friend's wife is in the hospital so he can't actually meet me until later in the day.
Anyway, long story short - I opted to wear a different outfit so I expect I'll return the one I spent 3 days hunting for. Met w/ at least 6 people, all seemed to go well. Ultimately my friend makes the decision I think.
So now I"m sitting here completely flaky cuz I still have to find some real food and its technically 10:44 pm EST.
Pretty damn happy tho!

LMAO Brown nose make up! Actually whats sort of funny is the last nite last week I burned 3 hrs finally finding an interview suit & shoes, I stopped at the makeup counter because the suit was colors I don't normally wear. The girl spent a half hour putting stuff on and I was like - uh I gotta go so ... see ya. I ended up buying most of the same colors at the Walgreens an hour later. Love em!

I love my new makeup! I can't believe I've never been made up w/ those colors before -basically they are plum / cream - nothing wild but when I go to the makeup counters I usually get recommended browns or purples. Except brown washes me out and purples look, well purple. Some days you want to look like you aren't wearing "colors".
I'm still in lala-land right now. I had the interview all day Friday, then spent the weekend driving around the Bay Area down to Silicon Valley just getting a feel for the apartment opportunities, etc. I met up w/ my friend on Sunday afternoon just to talk a bit more about the position, the years we spent together in college (we both did our MS Computer Science degrees at the same place 13 yrs ago) and left it w/ him needing to circle back w/ the people I met w/ on Friday. He also sent a request for my list of personal references today.
I got in this morning at 6 am and I've been fairly useless all day so I just called in sick and went back to bed. Then at 8 pm tonite I had forgotten about another phone interview w/ one of my other leads -- so that woke me up and occupied the next 90 minutes. So should hear back on next steps by Wed and possbly fly out there again next week for an interview w/ them in Cupertino (deeper into Silicon Valley and further south from San Fran than the first opportunity).
Wohoo! Wohoo! Wohoo!
And I think I will be returning all these interview suits I bought & save a few bucks
