As a social media manager, I can do with a break from exciting announcements about new platforms, features, tools, resources or opportunities. I'm tired.

Can we just get Meta to work for a whole day, our alt text to get accepted, and Twitter to decide what it's doing?

Y'ALL! I SAW AN OTTER IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD! I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS HAPPY! (I know this picture is bad but they were so cute and suspicious 👀)

I am SO EXCITED to finally find some of these 🐛 guys in my yard. #HappyFlippers 😍

I enjoy that my lunchtime, decompression walks around @UF campus include so much wildlife.

Birditude is a thing, right? 😜

Communicators everywhere, can we stop using the word Eblast? It's a jargony word that means nothing and sounds like a condition you suffer after eating tainted food.

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

New friend. 😍

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

Welp, #MuseumLife social media professional achievement unlocked. Just got offered a live rattlesnake.

Is it Friday yet?

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

Guess I can't go running now.

New backyard friend 🥰

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

My face all day.

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

My Queen's Tears are about to pop off and I am so excited! I ... uh ... liberated these from a vacant lot and have been anxious to see if they survived the move 🥰

When the collection manager is on a Zoom, the mice will play.

Or something like that. 🐋

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

I love that my morning commute onto @UF campus often includes direct or indirect wildlife encounters. Campus seems so busy with human activity but there are also many natural spaces that support biodiversity. Also raccoons are urban opportunists 🦝

I looked up on my walk at lunch and saw this dead leaf being held up by living leaves, and I felt that too much today. #FindingBeauty #MuseumLife

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

#MuseumLife self care looks like this. Taking a moment to enjoy something I see every day.

(Please note, this megalodon jaw has wheels and I have *refrained* from driving it around the building like the best scooter ever.)

Favorite part of my day 👀 #MuseumLife #TerrorBird

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

Yesterday's #FindingBeauty project left me with tough choices. But it was great to have a record scratch moment in my day when I stopped a mundane task to appreciate something beautiful right in front of me.

[Radha 👏 Happy Flippers @happyflippers]

I can't shake the anxiety of peak-covid life so I'm going to try to rewire my brain to seek out joy. I'm going to look for things in my day that make me happy and share pictures of my favorite.

Leaving work late has its advantages. The moon + pink clouds 🤩 #MuseumLife

@TheJennyLi I live vicariously through people who run wild and free like this. 👏👏👏
