Bringing down the patriarchy one petty comment at a time. MD in training. PhD researcher. Naps aggressively. Called “too much” by several ex-es. Dog in the profile pic is unimpressed by your banter (mine, too).

Was supposed to be waking up in Kauai this morning but both flights were canceled or delayed yesterday. *shrug*

Sad to miss that tropical paradise and also grateful to sip coffee at sunrise while Kona carefully inspects the first carrots peeking through the soil.

Our own (less tropical) paradise.
Brown and black rescue mutt is carefully sniffing the first tiny shoots of carrots peeking through garden soil. The mutt, my sweet girl Kona, is standing next to a raised garden bed, with a bark-covered yard behind her. It is peaceful early morning and there are birds chirping happily away in the background.

Mood.
A black and tan mixed breed dog is laying on a bed. The comforter and pillows are cream colored. There is a ombre pillow behind her that fades from pink to blue. Her legs are stretched out from her body and her cute little ears are flopped up. It seems as though she is too tired to do anything but lay flat out on the bed. I can relate.

A rare day off in the life of a med student. Trail run this morning and long walk with the dogs.

Now reading @naomiaklein.bsky.social with a sleepy pup warming my knee and a bottle of Oregon Pinot Noir.

Perfection.
Cover of the book “Doppelgänger” by Naomi Klein in the foreground. In the background a black-n-tan dog sleeps on the picture taker’s (me!) legs. A furry pillow shared the foreground. It is a cozy, comfortable tableau.

A black and tan mixed breed pup is lying on bed covered in cream colored linen. She is stretching one paw towards the camera, looking relaxed after a busy week.

Me: Hey swee—

Kona: Shhhh. Watching #Andor

Me: (nodding solemnly) May the force be with you.
Black and tan rescue mutt named Kona sits on a circular “cave” bed, her front legs dangling casually off one side. Her gaze is fixed elsewhere, she appears to be studying something intently.

Black and tan rescue dog sitting on a bed, looking back over her right shoulder at the. Amara. She looks unimpressed and slightly annoyed at the interruption.

This is my Kona. Quite possibly the sweetest dog ever born. Who will also drag me around the trails for hours even though she just turned 13 in April, haha.
A brown and tan medium-sized mixed breed dog lays on a raised cot bed in a sunny backyard. There is bark on the ground and the fence behind her is concrete block and cedar planks. She is looking intently in the distance at sometime, probably a squirrel.

My 13-yr-old Staffie-Shepherd mix (pic) literally pulls me along the trail for an hour and then runs around the yard barking at squirrels. Meanwhile, the 5-yr-old pup and I are exhausted!
Black and tan dog lying on a rust colored dog bed looking expectantly at the camera. She thinks a treat is coming. She is wrong.

A few photos from my recent (life-changing) trip to Saõ Miguel, Açores.
Amazing food, nature, and people.
Trees wrapped in fog near a trail that crossed through a grassy meadow and disappears into clouds. Covered picnic table perched high on a cliff overlooking an ocean vista. Lush green grass and trees just starting to show leaves are near the picnic tables surrounding hillsides and covered in evergreen trees and gorse. Dramatic, angled view along the infinity edge of an aqua pool in a lush green lawn, overlooking the ocean beyond. Black and white photo of a stone table and benches. A white and orange cat is sleeping curled up in the sun by one of the benches.

Well played, @oregonhumane.bsky.social.
Well. Played.

Look at that smooshable face!! 15/10
Adorable older dog sleeping in the sun, “wearing” a pair of sunglasses. His name is Rolland and he is available for adoption at the Oregon Humane Society.

“If you’re not feeding me, like, what are you even doing here?”
Cute and sassy black-n-tan young dog looks dismissively over her right shoulder at the camera. Her expression coveys a sense of complete superiority. She is a puppy dictator.

German shepherd mix adult dog sleeping with her squishy face smooshed between both front paws. She appears to be sleeping on a plush faux fur electric blanket that her amazing human bought for her.

OOOOOOOH. “A riding.” Got it.

Couldn’t figure out what all the equestrian-themed Canadian debate was all about.

I’m not a lawyer and I know I’m saying what many others have said before…but reading this part of the SC opinion on Noem v Abrego Garcia was…bone-chilling.
Screenshot of US Supreme Court opinion in the case of Noem v. Abrego Garcia with the following text highlighted: “To this day, the Government has cited no basis in law for Abrego Garcia’s warrantless arrest, his removal to El Salvador, or his confinement in a Salvadoran prison. Nor could it.”

My partner of 15 years died suddenly last September. He and I spent hours circling dream trips in catalogs. Trips we never went on.

Take the trip. Do the thing.
No one is promised a tomorrow.

I went on one of those trips last week and scattered his ashes on an unnamed beach. Miss you, love.
Dramatic coastline with cliffs and the sea crashing against boulders.
