Sean, you definitely should not turn that down if it becomes a reality! We would miss you, but dude, that's steady work! And bennies! And Atlanta is awesome.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Whoa Sean, that's a lot to process. But a good paying job is a wonderful thing, on a lot of different fronts.

And, as Pix notes, Atlanta is a nice city!

I've enjoyed Atlanta the two times I've gone. Ginger is lovely, and a non-Buffista friend works there for the CDC.

$50,000 goes a lot further in Atlanta. You could buy a house.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Fortunately, my symptoms only coincide with weird tropical diseases I know I don't have. I believe I'll go to bed.
So long as you are still fully aware you don't have them, it's okay. If you start actually convincing yourself you do, put down the whatever.
Sean, that is a good living doing something you enjoy and it's high praise when people so value your skills. I'd consider it. You can move again. A really good salary and full benefits are pretty good for the sense of self and worth.

And Atlanta is awesome.
And Ginger is there, which only ups the awesome quotient.

That's great, Sean - and what they all said. About the job and the city. Plus dolphins.

Thrive to spite them
Sean I think it's awesome that you are in the running for that. You don't have to make a decision but Atlanta is a great city plus the airport is a major hub so that's another plus.

But I really don't want to leave LA.
Yeah you do! For a steady job with good pay in the field you love!
It's better than having no car and no money and eating dust bunnies, dude.
Besides, Georgia girls will totally fall for your charms.
