should I be happy?

So I get a call from a very excited guy this morning. As he starts talking about stuff going on with classes.

I finally get it out of him "You're in a good mood today, aren't you?"

He got contacted by someone who wants him for a job. A government job, so if he gets it, he will be there for a long while (assuming he tolerates the management). And they'll let him finish his schooling while working.

The bad news (of course there's bad news): he'd be working out of Virginia.

Needless to say that would totally suck. I feel Arizona in my soul, and I know he does too. I could inquire through the contracting agency if I could "transfer" without too much of a headache. But there are other research opportunities there I could apply for.

And that would probably bump up our wedding plans. I know nothing of Virginia, so we might as well go with our current plans.
