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

Here we go again. Another national holiday in the midst of a pandemic. Another time we should be rejoicing. Yet, our nerves are a bit frayed. Do we really want to think about our weekend plans? I most certainly do not care to. We are in constant negotiation […]
There are occasionally those days where nothing goes right. It happens. You roll with it. Sometimes you can even steel yourself against such days. There are also those days where one thing is supposed to occur and it doesn’t happen. It saddens you a bit. Thriws you off. […]
