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

Happy new year. It is the year of the pig starting today. I personally think pigs are very cute. They may be cuddly but have never had a chance to cuddle one so I do not know about their cuddle factor. There are many who have had […]
Early in the am, I stopped and took in this rainbow public art. And, just thought of how much I love my beloved New York City. It’s a place where even at 5am, you can find a place to be yourself. It’s a place where at 5am everything […]
Many years ago, I taught a session on how many of our popular sayings contradict one another and leave some people in a state of mass confusion. For instance, you have “birds of a feather flock together” and “opposites attract“. Both are correct in different contexts. Friends […]

I have never been that great in taking a compliment. Although, I most definitely know how to toot my own horn and blow my own trumpet. I actually wish I had learned to play the trumpet in school. It is such a vibrant, energetic instrument. Instead I learned […]
