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’m a lucky mom. My son means the world to me and he knows it. He goes out into the world secure of my love. I feel happiness in that thought. His birthday was two weeks ago and we’ve been celebrating it the last two weeks culminating in […]
Just this morning Facebook sent me a reminder that it was one of my “friend’s” birthday and that I should send a message. I admit, as of late, I do so reflexively occasionally mixing up the birthday message by a word or two. I hated the birthday Facebook […]

I have been having a rough few weeks with torn knee muscles, being home bound and having had to work countless weekends in a row. Staying home and watching television doesn’t help matters as most of what you can find on television is fairly depressing. And I […]
When I lived in Spain many years ago, I was considered exotic by many Spaniards and Europeans in general. I was different looking as I am brown and curly-haired. The fact that I was American bewildered many as I did not fit the images that are often […]
Since I first saw the movie Silence of the Lambs, I wanted to be a a superhero. I know that Clarice was an FBI agent and not a superhero in the comicbook sense of the word. But to me she was a hero. I too could hear the […]
The universe, as well as Hollywood films, is filled with stories of two individuals who grew up in similar circumstances yet widely diverged in how they went forward in life. In Hollywood, one becomes good and the other evil. It is a completely worn out trope. To […]
Despite my recent (well over five years now) lack of movie theatre outings, I love movies. Although, since I am slightly snobby about it all, I should note I love film. I love old school screwball comedies such as Bringing Up Baby and old film noirs such as […]
I already know and have shared with you all that if a zombie apocalypse were to occur it would happen in the month of August. We have just a few more days left to see if it comes this year. Comets, weird elections, wildfires, floods are running rampant […]
