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
Mid-spring I had decided I wanted to take my son to Puerto Rico. We hadn’t been there in more than four years. Hadn’t been back since hurricane Maria. I was sure much had changed and yet not much at as well. My son doesn’t recall his last trip […]
The word “friends” has lost its meaning. It has lost its way. I use the word sparingly. Yet I seem to be surrounded by people who use it on a drop of a dime. Is that the correct phrase? Let’s look at the television show Friends. They were […]

Sometimes no matter what some people will never get you. It may be a concerted effort on their part to just take everything you say and twist it. It may be that they don’t like all your cute shoes. It may be that they felt they deserved your […]
I have loved key lime pie for a good twenty years. I love sour. I love sweet. I like brightly colored food. Despite such love, I hadn’t made it yet to Florida’s Key West. That is not until this past weekend. And it was a most wonderful quick […]
Maybe your space was not mine to occupy You invited me You encouraged me Then I came to an understanding Despite your entreaty I was never meant to be there I waved hello and My clock started running Don’t fool yourself that there was no clock There was, […]
As I wrote this, I am laying out by the pool in the Florida Keys. It is one of the few places I havent been to in the US. I’ve been to all 50 states except Alaska. And that became both slightly harder and easier to do. Harder […]
Strange voices are saying (What did they say?) Things I can’t understand -Bananarama Yes, most definitely strange voices are talking to me. They are telling me all sorts of odds and ends. They are telling me I need to step it up. But I counter that I always […]
