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.

I am a very messy person. I try to neaten up every week and within minutes, I clutter things up again. I like a good mess. Not a bad mess, mind you. Sometimes, the mess is just too messy and you startle yourself into some kind of cleaning […]
My mom loved election day. She loved voting. She truly cared and felt her vote counted. Or that she wanted it to count. Had she still been alive for this election, I know she would have stood happily in those lines. Election day often fell on her birthday […]
Perseverance. There’s strength in those stones. She could feel it emanating from the ground into her bones. She was not ready to give up and she was going to get the will from all that she touched. She had lost much and had been knocked down many times. […]
