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 have often complained about the fact that it almost always rains on my birthday. Its in early May still undergoing the transition from April showers. This past year, I didn’t have rain on my birthday and it was wondrous. I had a colleague that similarly complained of […]
My son had looked forward to San Francisco last year. He definitely missed New York. However, he noted upon landing in San Francisco the first time, that it was beautiful and the water was so clean. I thought he was throwing shade at New York and had […]
