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
I hate arriving early to meetings. I just hate it. I detest it, as a matter of fact. Yet, I do it consistently without fail. Do you know how horrible it is to arrive early to meeting after meeting? Sure, I can pat myself on the back and […]
When you make it to 5pm and haven’t yelled at anyone, thought someone was insane, or managed to not bite your nails all the way down, it was a good day. Sometimes you look at your fit bit for the time and you think you are free from […]

Ever since my son was six months old, I have loved taking him on trips. For his first birthday, we went to Atlanta, Georgia. Not super thrilling but I had a business trip and he got to go to the Coca Cola factory there. Oh wait, that was more […]
This past weekend, I spent it in a quaint town of Solvang where we got to eat danish food all weekend. It was my birthday weekend and since I couldn’t really ditch work again, I elected for a weekend getaway trip. The town is a complete tourist […]
When I was a young kid, I maybe skipped school twice. I skipped it once to catch a New York Mets game. And it was so worth it. The thrill of being bad for something so innocuous was cool. Or at least I felt super cool at the […]
I have started making my son’s bed. Am I finally growing up? No. That’s my answer. But let’s rewind and take this from the beginning. I don’t make my bed. I just don’t care how rumpled a bed may be. Here is my thinking and philosophy […]
I have a never-ending love, craving even, of travel. I just got back from a trip and am looking forward to the next. I think of Willie Nelson’s song “On the road again” with great fondness not only because my mother loved it but also because I’m always […]
