Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

And if he gets the job, you'll be able to settle your planning mind a little bit better by being able to picture what you're headed into. You can also do some hands-on reconnaissance as far as schools and houses go, stuff that you wouldn't be able to get satisfactory answers from mr. flea. Well, I wouldn't be able to get satisfactory answers from the SO, anyway.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I vote go to Dublin. A week without kids! Think of it! Going to Dublin is just bonus.

You all are clearly not as cheap as me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm pretty cheap, but if my spouse were seriously looking at a job in another country, I'd want to go there first. Maybe the area will click for you or maybe you'll hate it. And that's a pretty big risk to take when you don't have to.

flea, ask a financial adviser if any portion of the costs can be deemed a business expense. Maybe not, but it's worth inquiry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that. Also: A week in Dublin for two for $2000! It's a bargain.

I'm very cheap & I would go.

If you starting looking into housing options while you're there, could you claim it as a moving expense?

What is up w. your President, America?

Because books.

I would absolutely go, flea. Go and enjoy the time alone with your guy. Also, looking around pre-possible-move is really sort of necessary (or would be if it were me).
