After being "a really amazing candidate, ɓut we just had this other person with x" for way too many jobs, I've finally been offered a job that's interesting, uses some of my skills, is 20 minutes from home, and is good money. Fucking finally.

That's amazing. I think my work being so close to home has made it a lot more tolerable than more interesting jobs further away

Congrats! You deserve a break after such a long job search. And to hit the trifecta of easy commute + interesting/relevant + $ is particularly awesome.
