Punishingly Intricate

Should I apply for a job I think I'm probably underqualified for (both on paper and in real life), but which could be really cool, and pays a TON of money?

Yes! Right? Why not?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK. OK. I think I'll wait until after my career advice brunch tomorrow.

Seriously, even thinking about applying for real jobs makes my hands sweat.
