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.

Windows onto the world What do you see? Who do you want to be? What do you want to be? Sometimes we can see far out Other times, it is murky and gray Frayed nerves Hurried pace Blurred lines Frantic thoughts Seek your reflection And you might just […]
I often digress and take a while to get to a main post in order to have a well worthwhile buildup. However, I will just go ahead and note the movie Joker was phenomenal. It was dark, depressing, and disturbing. It was also dynamic. Undoubtedly, Joaquin Phoenix deserves […]
Nostalgia often got the best of her. Even nostalgia for things she never experienced herself. Research now showed that you could remember other people’s experiences as if they were your own. Tonight was one of those times. She was feeling antsy and went for a walk to the […]

Today I had two separate conversations with the same individual that left me tired, more tired, and worn out. I wanted to let the person know that the conversation could have waited or could have occured via email. Personally, I prefer texting. But, I did not advise this […]
