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
When I was a kid, my mother used to have me participate in storytelling contests. I have no idea how that ever came about. I don’t know whether such things even still exist. However, that love of words and stories stayed with me. Became a part of my […]
I don’t cook. I don’t bake. I’ve put my stove on twice in the last four months or so. I used to cook. I cooked curries, chowders, and stews. I baked fudge brownies and sour cream apple pies. I used to. And, then I didn’t. And, now I […]

We love our long weekends. We get to decompress. We get to give the mind a mini vacation. We get to catch up on things. Normally, as a result, we wish everyone a great long weekend politely asking about their plans. Normally. Typically. These are not normal times. […]
To dream of a past where groups danced and the band played on all night. She stared up at the ceiling and saw visions of wet sand and bongo drums. To dream. To dream. Oh she could taste the raspberry dreams. They were sweet, sticky, and sumptuous. She […]
I love New York City for many reasons. One of which is the ability to walk everywhere. And, at the moment, I am walking anywhere between 15,000 to 22,000 steps a day. Each day I’m walking to work and I’m loving walking to work. I listen to a […]
We are constantly, as a daily endeavor, being asked to forecast the future. What will the weather be like tomorrow? Will stocks go down? And, no matter what job you may have interviewed for in the past, you were probably asked “where do you see yourself in five […]
Today was a long day with very little sleep. Three hours of sleep as a matter of fact. Just three hours. I was in zombified mode all day. Words were in and out of my brain. Meaning remained at the surface level. Digging deeper wasn’t meant to be. […]
