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
This morning I woke up singing that Michelle Branch song “Goodbye to You.” It was a song that I first heard on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Which, by the way, is in my top five ever favorite shows. I know that the name of the show, and the […]
A long time ago, I lived abroad in Spain. It was a fabulous time of growth for me as I learned to see the world with new lens. I got to eat new foods and drink great wine and walk the city streets of a city that […]

My son and I have a nice nightly ritual. We pick a show to watch together that we then deconstruct. It is fun to hear my nine year old son’s perspective on plotlines. He may have a future on scriptwriting. One show that we have had a blast […]
For a few seconds on a saturday night I was ecstatic at the thought of you Happy that I had forgotten your name Your face still brings anger Your venom still poisons But your name, your name Is no longer powerful You name is a memory gone And […]
My family has always had a fraught relationship with lady luck. My mom had fantastic luck until she didn’t. Then it became horrid. I had great luck for a few things and no luck for a few others. I learned from an early age, I had to either […]
We went on a quick weekend trip and it was such a grand reprieve from the grime, sadness, and fake glitz that is Los Angeles. Ah, why did I even start off with that bit? It’s quite silly of me to have done so considering that is not […]
Dear Friend: I believe that I have previously mentioned I have lived in 17 cities, both internationally and domestically. Majority of the cities being domestic. That is a lot of instances in which I have been uprooted. Maybe that is a wrong way of phrasing it as […]
