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 couldn’t sleep the other night. It has been happening to me with some increasing frequency. But instead of being a couch zombie or runinator – two bad extremes- I have looked to do things. Get some tedious things done. I mean really tedious. What did I do […]
Nostalgia. A powerful emotion. Some might argue it’s not an emotion. I certainly don’t care. Nostalgia. I’ve been feeling it a lot lately. It courses through my veins and into my the right and left side of my brain. I looked at some old photographs on my dresser […]

For the past year, I have not really taken a day off. I haven’t taken a vacation. Neither have millions upon millions of people. But we each reach a point where maybe we need a day off. For the past few months, people have been repeatedly telling me […]
Let’s face it. Life would be wonderful and less stressful if there were less toxic people in the world. Or perhaps better yet, less toxic people in one’s life. And, sadly it is not like toxic people beep an alarm to let you know. Sometimes some people may […]
Cookies. Yum. But bad. Happy but sad. She loved baking them. But she couldn’t eat them. Everytime she went to take a bite, tears would start streaming down her face. She was reminded of how she would bake with her loved ones. Now, she baked and there was […]
“A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.” When I became pregnant I knew that one of the values I would immediately try to pass onto my child was the love and appreciation of travel. In psychology, we measure […]
This might seem weird to some. Bit April fool’s day makes me a little sad. It’s a day of jokes and I love pranks. Pulled one off last week on a colleague to great delight. I got that love of pranks from my mother. She took great pleasure […]
In New Yok, you see everything. You can experience almost everything. And, with enough money you can certainly buy pretty much anything. Thus, when walking the city streets of New York, you have to be prepared for just about everything and anything. Yup. The other morning it looked […]
