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

I’ve been riding tbe subway a bit more these days. I am extra vigilant. I don’t stand near the platform. I wear earphones with no music on. Just a couple of dollars gets you far in New York City. Well, gets you far distance-wise on the subway system. […]
Flawed like a diamond Lucky thirteen is my faith Devoid of all thought Tender is my brain Let me share a few haikus Simmer, boil, and torch Fried tendons so ache But the soul, even more so Where’s the aloe vera Tick, tick, Tick and go No one […]

This is a sad post for me to write. I used to be a big fan. But now, I’m beyond annoyed. I am over Uber. Now, mind you I rely on Uber for a lot. I don’t drive. Never have. I didn’t even drive when I lived in […]
