I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers
There comes a point in every day when you start to question not just what time it is, but what day it even is. Today was one of those days. You know the kind where you’re running around like a headless chicken, except this chicken is also holding […]
Do you need time? Do I need time? What does that even mean? I live by time. I run on it. I am time. My calendar and I are so in sync that if it ever disappeared, I might actually disintegrate like a Marvel character in the blip. […]
There was a time when getting mail was exciting. Maybe it was a handwritten letter, a glossy magazine, or if you were lucky a package from a friend. Now? The mail has become a bit of a roulette wheel, especially if you’re an online shopping enthusiast like me. […]
There are places you want to visit because they’re famous such as Paris, Rome, and Walmart the day after Thanksgiving. Actually, I’ve never done the latter. And then there are places you want to visit because a movie you might have watched once (or maybe just saw the […]
What are your favorite websites? We all have our digital comfort zones. Those little corners of the internet we crawl back to like loyal cats to a warm laptop. Once upon a time, mine were the news sites and TV gossip pages. You know, the ones that whispered […]
There’s something oddly comforting about the fact that, while we’re up here arguing about pumpkin spice versus peppermint mocha, ocean scientists have just discovered dozens of new species hanging out at the bottom of the Southern Ocean including, a carnivorous “death ball” sponge. Yes, you read that right. […]
Halloween finally arrived. The day of glorious weirdness I’ve been waiting for all month. And naturally, I woke up at 4:14 a.m. because my body apparently wanted to pregame the day with exhaustion. Who needs sleep when there’s candy corn to contemplate and costumes to coordinate? By the […]
What’s something you believe everyone should know. There are few things in life as satisfying as an underdog story except maybe a perfectly toasted bagel with schmear on a Sunday morning. But this World Series? It’s pure underdog magic with extra innings of heart. Who knew the Toronto […]
Every weekday morning, I step onto the same train car like it’s the opening scene of a movie. A psychological thriller meets slow-burn social experiment. Somewhere between the first and last stop, a small community forms in that it that runs on caffeine, quiet judgment, and the delicate […]
Lately, I’ve come to accept that my phone knows me better than my closest friends. Which is both impressive and deeply disturbing. Every time I open a social media app, the algorithm whispers softly, “You good?” and then promptly floods me with dog videos, mental health affirmations, and […]
