Dublin is a lovely city. I am positive they have sushi. But it is across the ocean from your family.

Is there not sushi in Dublin?
Does pickled herring count? They have that.

A friend of mine had job offers in Dublin and LA, and noted that they were the same distance from his family home in Maine.
Dublin was much more distant in travel time, though, given the paucity of Portland-Dublin flights.
He decided based on sunshine and mountains anyway, not distance.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
The next project on my list is a) looking for a needle in a haystack, and b) something that I was told could wait until tomorrow.
It turns out this is not a good combination for me.

Silly me was very confused when you started talking about Mountain View vs Dublin because there is a Dublin across the bay from Mountain View. Then...ahh, not that Dublin.

It occurs to me I should ask Dear NSA what else I should have in my Zebra Footage folder.
(Note: my Zebra Footage folder is pretty much just CEvans pictures. I find them soothing.)

I appreciate the advice, y'all.

Yeah, that is a valid concern now that I'm checking travel times from Dublin to where my family lives in Michigan. Yikes.

Dublin is a lovely city, I concur. MV has much to offer too. I think this is one of the all win scenarios.

It's probably more expensive, shrift, but Air Canada does directs flights from Dublin to Toronto. I don't know how hard it would be to get home from there.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That was my first thought.
