I'm not the only member of my family who wants to leave the US. When visiting my parents yesterday, my mother said the two of them have been talking about possibly moving to Ireland when they retire. My mother is eligible for citizenship through her dad's side of the family, though I am not. Alas. I wish it was easier for people to change countries to get away from stupid and crazy.
As well as one at Penn State in Pennsylvania, Danae's current prospects for a position include Canada, the Netherlands (Amsterdam), and Hong Kong. She also got an offer to interview in Oxford, England, but they wanted her to come in person. That is not going to happen unless they'll pay for the trip. It's weird to be thinking of going to all these places. I've never thought I'd be in a position to go further away from the US than Canada or Mexico. Heck, I can't even afford to travel in the US unless I sleep in my car and eat Chef Boyardee out of the can. Good thing I kind of enjoy that... Still, it would be nice if a decent motel was something we could manage so Danae could travel with me more.

Belgium if I had stayed just three months longer.
Latvia if the Nazis hadn't destroyed all the evidence (and all my relatives on that side of the family).
Italy and France are way too far back to have any rights.
I now have to rely on having Scottish ancestry, a Scottish husband and a Scottish marriage certificate for when Scotland goes its own way......

As for Nazis, this is kind of satisying...
