A week and a half ago, NASA called to offer me a job. The pay is significantly less that I expected so I am in the middle of negotiating pay and trying to get the relocation package details.

Bob is having some difficulty with all of this - he wants me to be happy (I hope) but he has put so much blood, sweat, tears, and money into the company that he runs here in Orlando. He also really doesn't want to travel as much as when I lived in Bloomington, IL (he flew to see me nearly every weekend).

There is another company that is located here in Orlando that shows promise of offering me a position but, as it is government as well (Army) - and that means molasses would win the race, the offer is at least a couple of weeks away. The research at this job sounds really interesting (medical training) so I am even more torn; move to VA and do really cool aeronautics research at NASA or stay here and do really cool research for the Army? I am not a supporter of war (I'm not sure anyone *really* is, but I really detest it) and I am positive that at some point in my career in the Army, I would have to work on something that would be war-related.

~sigh~ I guess we'll just have to see how the cookie crumbles...
