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 had a hard week and it’s not even done. I’m tired and cranky. Yet, I’m also dreamy and streamy. Oh wait. I have no idea what that means. I’m sleepy. Yes, sleepy. Running on empty. Hoping for a change of course. What shall, no one knows. I’m […]
Look, I’m a diehard New Yorker. I don’t drive. I love pierogies and bagels. I can walk for hours on end. Yet, lately I’ve been holding onto my pepper spray a little tighter and have been glad to wear a mask. Let’s start with the latter. New York […]
Her hearing was phenomenal. Super sharp. It always was. It had to be. It was a defense mechanism growing up. When she would hide from the monster she needed her sense of hearing to be on point. She needed to even hear his nostrils flare. Today was no […]

Let’s face it, the year 2021 is coming to an end rather soon. Sure, there are 147 days left to 2021. Depending on your perspective that may seem to be a lot of days left to this “covid/delta/vaccine/unmask/remask” year. Or it may seem to be too little days […]
Darkness calls The moon beckons Stark mind and heart Fight, fight, fight Box through the haze Find the light It is somewhere
We love our hero stories. We love our conflicted antihero. At some point we want an origin story. Why? How? One question we’ve been readily grappling with as a society is who is a hero. These days I’ve been a bit of a curmudgeon feeling that we bestow […]
I have a public announcement to make. I like to make pronouncements as it is fun to do so. However, I do take it seriously. Take this as it is meant to be taken. This is just a motto to live by. Of all the money we spend, […]
All through spring, I had been looking forward to travelling again. I had a ton of accumulated vacation time and sadly what is worded as “use or lose” time. Considering that Americans are notorious for not taking time off or not even having time off in certain positions, […]
I heard the song “Yellow” by Coldplay and I teared up a bit thinking about my son when he was a baby. It sounds so cliche to say, but hold on tightly onto your babies as they grow up so quickly. When I was pregnant I didn’t want […]
