Ooooh tough call - job you think you'll love but that might have a high family impact or a short term job that allows for a better family situation...

I wish you the best with your choice and hope you get the opportunity to make it! Good luck!

Thanks - the big concern is that I'm not wholly convinced my spouse/daughter would end up moving up to Seattle. The money really isn't all that much better - something of a wash with the higher housing costs, though really not that much more expensive than Portland these days.

But on paper, I love the job. The other job I'm applying for is here in OR- don't really know the job is a good fit for the long term, but it would make the family stuff work much better.
Hmmm, that's a tough one. I guess that some compromises will need to be made from both sides, and a job that doesn't satisfy/ /make you happy will reflect on your family life at some point. JMO though.

Well, ultimately it's only even a choice if I get one/both jobs. For now I'm just applying/interviewing and hoping for some divine intervention to create some happily ever after, whatever that may look like.

OK, just point me into the right direction, and my irresistible blue eye will work its magic for you.

On a more serious note - I'm an optimist, things will work out in your favour.
Eh, yeah, Ix was my target all along for the lynch, and in hindsight I definitely shouldn't have put the pressure on you with a vote at that point in the game, I played it wrongly. I should have just tried to time it right enough that I could push the votes towards Ix, or maybe even HijacK for how he was being. Though, if you'd have responded a bit differently I might have come off of you and gone right to HijacK or Ix, but, eh, I was kind of stuck at that point I felt, and then I also became uncertain who you were actually allied with and what you were trying to pull and what might happen if I did unvote. People are going to "scummity scum scum" at you in this game I think, you just gotta be able to slough it off/try and use it to your advantage/definitely not let it get to you because it is all part of the game and is never personal, or never should be, I hope. Ah well, it was fun. Sorry I led you to your death. GDIT, I could have won! Lynch Ix, NK cristigale or flub.

I was pretty upset my flub kill didn't go through. I thought perhaps finally we were going to get a kill, then when it didn't and someone (book) was also trying to kill flub, I didn't know if the next night flub was a good target because of how that all went, and so was thinking cristi, buuut, gaahhh, if only different choices!

I was wondering if I had you or who I might have had fooled that I was town or that there might be town, and for how long. I couldn't see me having much other advantage, and with JMich and HSL dying so fast, I figured they were good cards to try and play as town to build up the existence of town that couldn't be disputed.

doootdooo

Oh, and N1 when we decided not to kill anyone, I was actually thinking I was going to send in a NK action anyway against the team's wishes, and RP it at an angle that made sense, but then I fell asleep and didn't wake up until it was too much later I felt like. GRRRR. I should have attempted anyway I think.
I think I had the prediction of the game in post #27:

"JMich/Drealmer/Leonard/Cristi/Dedo/P1na/HSL/Ix/Hijack are all lurking. What are the odds they're all scum? Pretty good, right?"

I invoke LAL on you. I never ever lurk.

Heh. For the record, that statement was actually a joke, and not a prediction.

I was just giving myself undeserved credit after the fact. ;)

You know who hides behind jokes and hehs, right? Scum, that's who :)
