Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
interview guy wants me to make a decision about location (Mountain View vs. Dublin) before I follow up with him again.
I think that is encouraging. YAY

Sure!
Pros: I have people in the Bay Area, I wouldn't have to move out of the country and deal with visas/banking/taxes/retirement, shorter & less expensive flights to visit family, sushi.
Cons: COST OF LIVING JESUS CHRIST, terrible traffic.
Of course, I also still need someone to offer me a job.

And I thought, "Why does she need a flight to visit sushi--oh, wait."
When my database queries start gas lighting me, I go home.

ahahahahahahaha. I know that pain.
Is there not sushi in Dublin? Would it be a many-year move, or something for just a few years? Don't forgrt, everyone there will get additional attractiveness points for accents...

I need to visit Dublin, because it's difficult to make a good decision when you have not been to a place. I need a visa to work there, so probably 2 years at least, with a max of 3-5 years depending on the type of visa.
In the continuing saga that is my family, oldest son got arrested for drunk driving. Dad bailed him out. WTF, Dad? Took him to his scheduled outpatient rehab program, where they told Dad to take him to the ER because he was drunk and hallucinating (he's also been abusing his ativan). And apparently, when he was driving Mom home from the ER and she was screaming at him to slow down, stop at the lights, get back into the right lane, he began pounding the steering wheel and screaming "I'm not out of control!". If they hadn't been driving, Mum would still have been fearful for her safety. Christ.
At least Mum finally realizes that he can't come home. And he's bad enough finally that he can get financial assistance in getting into a full-time rehab clinic.
Dublin is a lovely city. I am positive they have sushi. But it is across the ocean from your family.
