Do you think it's a coincidence that all my ads are for moving to different countries after the state of the union?

I limit myself sometimes, choosing not to apply for jobs because I don't consider myself qualified. But then I remember something my late spouse used to say to me when I was job searching. "You can do anything." Not a platitude. Not even a compliment. Delivered as fact because she believed it.

Bear is happy because she has frightened away every living thing with her sonic bark

Despite applying for many, many Community Manager and Developer Advocate roles, the job ad I keep seeing is to be a Wedding Day Dog Chaperone, which is both a) only a weekend a month and b) so very, very Portland

Here is your Bear of the day. Why is she hiding in the bush? Because I was trying to brush her fluffy butt

Anyone else ever have the desire to just look a hiring manager in the eyes and yell "I could do this job sooooo good!" or have I have been job searching long enough to lose my mind

Sometimes the world is so overwhelming, but then in the quiet of my house, I hear my dog snoring, and I know that at least for now, everything is okay

Things I said to the dentist during my cleaning: - I'm worried my teeth know I'm depressed - I brush my teeth while I cry to save time - If tears built enamel, I could bite through this drill right now

Earth 💜 the more I think about/learn how bizarre and strange and complex planets and moons are, how difficult and random even geology is, the more I appreciate *life.* We look for things like ancient signs of simple bacteria but ! polar bears exist and they PLAY. All that randomness for this majesty

The Skyline seems troubled today. May I offer Bear at her puppy school graduation (she ripped the certificate out of the trainer's hand and shredded it)

Rest is not a reward. Rest is a necessity. You don't have to earn it. It has no moral value.

Question: how do you deal with nosy neighbors who are mean and tell the neighborhood kids (unprompted) he doesn't like you bc you're fat and "eat too much candy"? Obviously my network of child spies is on my side
