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.

Imagine this scenario. Someone is leaning over a toilet throwing up. One person pulls that person’s hair back and says it’ll be ok. Another person stands back perplexed trying to figure out what caused the stomach problem. While a third person goes back to look for the purse […]
The moon was bright. Shining, casting a light on all that was wrong. It didn’t let up. It couldn’t. But it didn’t matter. All transgressions were to be forgiven the morning after. There was always the morning after. There was always a way to explain things or find […]
