Take the round-trip ticket and leave yesterday! You can accept job offers by phone. Take it, take it, take it, Nini! NOW.
I just wanted to add.... because I feel so strongly about this..... that you have GOT to stop sacrificing where it's not necessary. We give up so much in this world and, for many of us, it's hard to give ourselves a little reward without feeling guilty about it. Do something for yourself, Nini. You have been offered a gift. Accept it, enjoy it, and feel good about it. We all deserve to feel good about our lives. I understand your motives behind not accepting this gift, but just remember. Each little denial, however well-intended, will sit at the back of your mind. It will join all the other little denials, which will be joined by all the future little denials. One day, that little pile of denials is going to get really big and is going to pop. And it's going to pop at a really inopportune time. Save yourself some grief and do yourself a favour. TAKE THE TRIP.
And now back to your regularly scheduled programming. Thank you for your patience with the emergency broadcasting system.

Holy cow.... I think Krikit is waaaay wiser than Crikey
Nini --- take the trip and come back energized and ready to take the job interviews by storm.
