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

They are coming Must rise up against the quicksand They are coming Must be steadfastly strident and headstrong They are coming Must push back against the naysayer’s wall They are coming Must not blink the confidence asunder They are coming Must reabsorb the jitters into the veins They […]
We listlessly got in a car and drove and drove Freely with no clear destination in mind Other than wanting to find a restorative spirit trove Upon Manoa Falls trail we stumbled And then we merrily toiled and slid Ascending the trail that was muddy but not disgruntled […]
It is 3am and I just cannot fall back asleep. It could be the immense jet-lag that I feel. It also could be that I came to the sad realization that summer is almost over. Well, it is half way done and I guess I am a glass […]
I am a diehard New Yorker. Let’s just get that out of the way immediately. Why? Because despite having lived in six US states, living abroad in Europe, and visiting 43 out of the 50 states, plus Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, I am still in […]
The doors to the commuter train are jammed up again, the bells are ringing and we are not moving. Sigh. It’s hot. It is 6pm and the work day has been long and brutal. The train staff start speaking to each other over the PA system. It is […]
