So let me get this straight, you get a good job offer but turn it down because you can't be far from the beach?

Don't hate her cuz you ain't her. Who doesn't want to work on the beach doing a job that is a hobby you love?
I haven't turned it down yet. I'm actually going to go see the place next thursday - my emotions are impulsive, my actions rarely are. I just sincerely doubt I will be swayed.
I was half joking about the beach part, but half serious. I don't think you understand....scuba diving keeps me sane. Being able to drive to the beach at night when I'm stressed out and listen to the waves keeps me sane. Some people just need certain things in life. I only need enough money to do the things that make me happy - I've got that now. I LEFT a great job to come to the beach, and I haven't looked back. I'm wary of leaving the beach for a job that takes me away from the things and people I love. It's not about logic, it's about knowing what will make me happy at the end of the day. Being isolated in the mountains away from friends, family, and the intangibles that give me peace is a daunting thing.
There's a reason that my friends joke with me and call me a mermaid and say I should grow gills lol. I'm not a "lay at the beach, get super tan, blah blah blah" girl. The last time I was at the beach (not to dive), I ended up playing with a bunch of little kids digging around for sand crabs, scooping up stingless jellyfish, and making sand castles like I was 5 years old. Outside of being near the ocean, there's no place that I feel that kind of....hmmm...lightness.
