Wow man! You're already here! Those are some big, hard choices right there. I can't imagine being away from my girl for so long, but I also commend your efforts to follow your dream.

Don't lose sight of your goals, and take things one step at a time so you don't get overwhelmed. I'm really easily discouraged; my ambition is easily deflated by self-doubt. I think it's really promising that you got an interview already! That's a decent wage too. Consider how bad the job market is right now. The simple fact that someone has expressed interest is HUGE! With patience and perseverance you'll do just fine.

By the way, my dixieland group plays once a month in San Francisco in the Mission. You gotta come hear us!
