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
Do you remember that Loverboy’s song “working for the weekend”? I wished that applied to me. Instead I work all weekend long. So, I work during the workweek so that I can keep working on the weekend. Such is life in the non-profit understaffed, bleed-you-to-death world. Besides working […]
I hate business cards. I conveniently forget to pack them in my luggage or everyday purse. When people hand their cards to me, I look at them once and throw them into what is labeled my handbag abyss. Every six months or so I clear out that space […]
Today in New York, it is a declared gridlock alert day. Next Wednesday will also have such an alert. This means that cars will go crazy in the streets and pedestrians will zig zag wildly about the sidewalks. This past weekend, there was also a Leonid meteor shower. […]
Kicking it old-school style gratitude Every morning on my way in to work I pass a huge billboard that says “gratitude.” I have not quite bothered to figure out what the billboard is trying to sell -I recognize that sounds a bit jaded-but the phrase has been on […]
Teeth dripping blood from the finger stumps Tongue salty from the anger-shed tears that have clumped Be gone you mythical beast of compassion And show your true moral compass and self-passion That lies strewn about the restaurant gutter Take your falsehoods and buy some twenty-percent friends They […]
Another week, another soggy diaper and salty trail of tears. Such is life. Wackiness abounds in great big buckets of slop. Not only are politicians their usual two-faced selves but we have a slew of apocalyptic behavior and my own private wacked-out hell. Enjoy the weekend folks. The […]
The year is 2013 and tongue lashings are all the rage. Thanks in large part to a Ms. Miley Cyrus. You may have heard of her. She has literally been pushing her tongue to and fro and side to side. I bet she did well as a teenage girl […]
Heart furiously pumping out the belly button lint Fingers twitching out blood and vinegar-laced tears Eyes darting feverishly building up a violent tint Deeply scratched cheeks highly bitten, raw and far from cashmere The words spill out before the mind knows The eardrum amplifies the backlash The lungs […]
A massive typhoon is hammering the Philippines. Nature is filled with fury as is the American public. All sorts of lawsuits have been filed and animals have gone missing. Politicians continue to attempt to bend reality to fit their will. Science has produced some interesting yet possibly scary […]
It was just voting time in New York and I am feeling a tad bit nostalgic. My mother’s birthday, which falls during this week, oftentimes coincided with election day. She took such great pride in voting and passed that sense of civic duty onto me. It was an […]
