I love my job... should I quit?

Trying to find the balance between staying in a secure job vs leaving in pursuit of a "dream job"... does that even really exist, though?!

Lyrics to Risk This? (the original song I played at the end of the episode):

I’m terrified Don’t know what I’m Doing with my life

All I know Is I could do this forever I could sit here and never Be dissatisfied

And I simultaneously Can’t wait to see, but dread What all of this will be(come)

Come on at your own pace, darling Even when the races are calling A big mistake or “leap of faith”, who knows?

And time machines, if they existed, Do you think that you would risk it? I’d like to believe that I’d consider it.

We are back in session! In this episode I gush about how truly happy I am these days... and how bad I feel about that. Doesn't happiness feel like a guilty pleasure sometimes???

Thanks for listening.

Cliche, but perhaps for a reason-- "never say never!" Sometimes time & effort are the only things standing between us and the things we never thought we could be, do, or accomplish. Who knows?... surprise yourself. :)

My middle school teacher’s wedding… the global Microsoft server outage… $$$ spent, yet priceless relationships earned… this was my beautiful weekend trip to New Jersey.

What if the personality traits, imperfections, and insecurities we feel self-conscious about are actually someone's favorite thing about us?

This one is dedicated to my older friends, and especially Laurie!

Keeping with Episode 93’s theme of loneliness, here is a song I wrote last year— called “sleepless”— in Seattle. ;)
I’m starting to think this will never end
I’m starting to lose gravitation
I’m starting to wonder if you never did wonder if I could ever be patient…
And in dreams I go home
“Only to no home I’ve ever known”
I wonder— if I leave,
I wonder if anybody would miss me

...Not really, but also yes. Some honest thoughts/feelings recently on being so surrounded yet so lonely at the same time.

BONUS CONTENT… this is the song I performed in the open mic mentioned in last episode! Written/recorded in 2022.

You would always walk all over me

Take a good thing and make it bad

I used to chalk it off as reality

But why should I have to say that?

My tongue’s on fire, it’s life and death

My lungs are tired, you're every breath

Needless to say,

We are done

I hope you

Grow up someday

Into someone

Who can

Know that there's more

To feeling secure

Than making someone else feel dumb

I know you be-

Lieve me a fool

But believe me, you

Would be leaving too

If I said and did

The things that you do

You think I'm a kid

But darling that’s you…
