With my concern being able to survive, do I take this position in the hopes that ill find something else (my current job is temporary and ends in two weeks) or pass up on it? It's the only offer I've received out of 60+ applications but I'm very much concerned about being able to afford my bills...

I agree with the previous posters and would suggest that, if you decide to take this position, you adjust your budget accordingly. When you start looking carefully at what you spend money on you'll find (as do most) that a lot of what you spend is frittered away on totally unnecessary things. You can get some very helpful ideas in the "frugal living" forum!
1) Income is better than no income
2) No employment gap is better than employment gap
3) New environment to meet new people and faces (read potential network) that may lead you to a better gig is better than no networking and getting that lead at home from behind your computer.
That's a tricky one... you don't want to be stuck without a job but you don't want to take a job that doesn't even permit you to make ends meet... I would probably take the job and keep searching full force.,, I guess that's the best you can do for now
It's MUCH easier to find a job when you already have a job. Chalk this one up to a life lesson.
