Aaron and I are in the process of deciding where to move. I did not get into grad school at Texas State...but, we still have to move somewhere by the end of May. Aaron still really wants to move to the Austin area. I do, too, but I'm just not sure I'm ready. The economy is still really shaky; we both have jobs here in College Station, and I'm really afraid to leave them without ones waiting for us in Austin. Actually, afraid is an understatement; I'm crazy-scared-out-of-my-mind. It makes my stomach hurt. It keeps me up at night.
I wouldn't mind staying here for awhile longer. I really don't mind College Station. It's not the crazy-hickville I thought it would be.
That's becomes the problem, doesn't it? Being stuck where you're at because of the instability of the nation. Perhaps a scout trip is in order, then? Both of you take a day trip to Austin to see what opportunities are out there. Unlike most areas of the U.S., Texas cities are surprisingly still growing somehow, so it might not be as bad as you think.
