Didn't sleep well and my RLS is kicking up. Going to go by the natural foods store and see about picking up something. It's driving me crazy.
Jenni, after the kid went to the bus stop, I went back to sleep for 3 hours.
Yes I am being a little cryptic. I'm a bad lounger, I usually share "real" news here after it's happened not before

Is your wife whelmed, too? If neither of you is totally thrilled with the idea, maybe the benefits aren't worth it.

We don't have many friends in the area (In before TS makes a joke that we don't have any friends at all), so that wouldn't be a loss. It'd actually be a gain (most of our friends would be closer, *possibly* within drivable distance for a day/half-day trip).
My wife is on the same page as me... Both of us are thrilled with the idea, underwhelmed by the prospects (shitty economy is part of it...) and overwhelmed by the risk (most of which I haven't talked about publicly in the lounge, so there's nothing to decipher here
I think I'm just being hesitant, KWIM?

How is everyone today?

I actually had to check the date on the post because I had seen it before

I even reread it a couple times to make sure that's actually what it said

I'm not sure what the distance is, but is there an opportunity to interview beforehand? Or are you just concerned with the stability of the job once it's secured?
If the prospects are enough of a concern, why not wait it out? I realize that may be a few years, but not doing it now doesn't mean you'd never have the chance again, right?
Normally I'd be the first person telling you to go for it, but, not knowing what industry you're in, job security is a huge deal right now to most.

I am concerned with the stability, that's def. a big factor in it. One of the reasons we're *thinking* of doing it now is because... something changed and it opened our eyes and it's a perfect opportunity. It's hard to explain without getting into a million details about our lives.
dunno....
