You don't drop it. You grow up and make the best of what you have, until a new opportunity presents itself. Persistence is the key. I once got a job, by applying to the opportunity every day for a month, and they finally called me and were impressed at my persistence.

My Advice to you is two pronged: 1. Stay in the market and looking (always, never stop. If you find an incredible opportunity take it) 2. Do your job, your mundane, boring (boo hoo) job, and then you do more. Get yourself noticed by the other location. Get to know the management team at the other location, be it by email or phone calls. Offer to do stuff on your own time for them. Soon they will want you there. They will extend an offer to you. If you want it bad enough you will get it.
