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
Some Wednesdays stretch like hot taffy left on a dashboard. Sticky. Slightly regrettable. And somehow still oddly satisfying. It’s that time of week where the to-do list has morphed into a didn’t-do-it list, the iced coffee lost its chill hours ago, and your inbox has become a crime […]
Some say Mondays are the worst. But Tuesdays? Tuesdays are sneakier. They lull you into thinking the week has begun, that you’re already mid-stream… when really, you’re still paddling in circles with coffee that isn’t quite strong enough and eyelids that are on strike. Today, I am operating […]
List 30 things that make you happy. There once was a gal in high heels,Who spun joy like spokes on her wheels.She’d scream to the skies,With no compromise,Then dance till she shattered all feels. Joy is the fire I fiercely chase,In pink my forever riotous grace.Give me magic, […]
I sit in the stillness between two livesTwo windows, two eyes to the world.One looks forward with wanderlust pulsing,The other looks back with quiet knowing. The front window, a travelogue in fabric and light,Orange curtains parted like sunrises,Framing a blue seat, a launching padThe place I dream of […]
There are a few life truths I know for certain: coffee is sacred, people will absolutely not use their blinkers, and dog kisses are both a daily ritual and a divine mandate. Let me break it down from the dog couch. A sacred, slightly chewed-up, fur-blanketed arena where […]
Lately, I’ve been on a binge. Not of chocolate-covered espresso beans (though those were involved) but of music documentaries. You know, the kind that unwrap a legend’s life like a glittery, bruised onion: layer after emotional layer, until you’re left sniffling and singing along in your bathrobe. The […]
Sometimes you read a news story and think, “Surely this is the pitch for the next Marvel movie, right?” But no! This is just Tuesday in 2025. Here’s the scoop: down in South Carolina at a former nuclear weapons site (because of course), employees discovered a radioactive wasp […]
What’s your go-to comfort food? Let’s talk about pizza. Not haute cuisine. Not microfoam cappuccinos or farm-to-table kale. Just good old-fashioned, cheesy, slightly greasy, possibly folded-in-half New York-style pizza. The real universal food or as I like to call it, “the one thing that unites my household, my […]
Was today typical? Some days are so quintessentially typical they loop right back around into chaos. Yesterday was one of those. A day that screamed, “You know better!” while I marched forward like a caffeine-fueled general on a self-imposed battlefield of calendar invites and step goals. Let’s start […]
I just watched the documentary Pee-wee Herman Himself and let me tell you, I didn’t expect to end it feeling misty-eyed while sitting next to a bowl of popcorn and existential nostalgia. Here’s the thing: growing up, Pee-wee wasn’t just a goofy man-child in a too-tight gray suit […]
