I have no advice, Nora.
Here! Which is where I'm having lunch tomorrow!
Awesome! See you the- oh crap, geography bites me in the ass again.
Actually not needing validation right now, but thank you.

I was totally fantasizing the other day about buying msbelle's place.

If it were me in Toms shoes I would say something like - I'm very interested in this position which is why I'm willing to consider an offer that is X less than my current salary. However, in order to maintain my current standard of living, I would like X amount of PTO.
I guess then i would reiterate that you want the job but you need to make sure you wont be going backwards in terms of SoL.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, very nice, Stephanie.

One of my neighbors just asked about it. She would really like to sell hers to buy mine. I just want a buyer like NOW.
Sue - hee! That would be awesome. If the building didn't require buyers to have this as their primary residence it would be a great NYC Buffistas time-share. Set up the main bedroom with 3 single beds or 2 fulls, then a single in mac's room, then a hide-a-bed in the living.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I might mention my family was in England and that is why I need a certain amount of PTO.

I'm totally saving msbelle's for future reference.

Oh yeah, England is good. I guess i also think it's important that if they aren't going to meet you on salary, they demonstrate some flexibility in a other areas.
