Interviewing yet again...

Is my eternal search for gratification a dire and hopeless one I wonder?

As many know, I have interviewed more than more people dream about... and I'd say I'm so good at it now that I can land most jobs (hit rate is down from 95% to about 75% -- its getting harder). But as I age, its not wise to keep jumping ship.

So.. I had 3 rounds of interviews compressed in 1 week. It was quite hardcore and was a flash. I'd say it went quite well and I may take this new job. I don't know if it means more money, but the responsibility is bigger and will require alot more dedication.

But it has 5 less vacation days.. at my age should I strive for balance in life or challenge? I enjoy slacking and coming in late, leaving early.. getting paid max $/hr.. but at the same time I feel like I'm not really accomplishing anything with my life. Now the question is... should I build a life outside work or let work become life ?
