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
Is it Thursday already? Or should I say, finally? This week has felt like it’s lasted a month, and last week’s 4th of July falling on a Thursday didn’t help. Celebrating freedom with fireworks only to drag myself to work on Friday was a mental challenge of epic […]
After years of commuting through the urban jungle, I’ve come to a startling conclusion: we should subsidize earphones for everyone, especially those crammed into crowded trains. Picture this: it’s 7:30 a.m., and you’re wedged between a chatty Cathy on her morning call and a big, burly 20-something guy […]
It’s a totally random Tuesday, and I started with a grand plan for tacos. But life had other ideas. Instead, I stumbled upon an offbeat restaurant I’d never been to (and probably won’t return to), where I watched an epic Spain vs. France Eurocup match. The game was […]
Ah, Monday—our old, uninvited friend. This one starts with a bang: my car refuses to work, the weather forecast promises a toasty 90 degrees, and a heat rash has made an unwelcome appearance. Classic Monday, right? Pop culture has a field day with the Monday blues, and it […]
Oh, the world of weird news never disappoints. Just when you think you’ve heard it all, the universe throws you a curveball so wacky that it could only belong in the annals of tabloid glory—or maybe in a Lifetime movie. First up, we have a headline that screams […]
Ah, a steamy Saturday in the height of summer. It’s 7 a.m., and I’m already sweating like I’ve run a marathon. The windows are fogged up, my eyeglasses are mistier than a Sherlock Holmes mystery, and the air conditioning is fighting a losing battle. The dogs, bless their […]
Ah, the day after the 4th of July. The sky is a bit gloomy, the air is steamy, and the remnants of last night’s fireworks still linger in the streets. Welcome to the dog days of summer, where the excitement of Independence Day gives way to the sluggish […]
Ah, the 4th of July—a day filled with barbecues, patriotic songs, and fireworks lighting up the sky. I haven’t watched fireworks in ages, but I have fond memories of those dazzling displays. There was that one time in D.C. when the sky exploded in color over the National […]
How do you express your gratitude? Gratitude—it’s a word that gets tossed around like confetti at a New Year’s Eve party. We’re all supposed to be grateful, but how we express it can be as varied as our choice of coffee orders. Personally, my gratitude toolkit includes saying […]
Here we are, July 2nd. Halfway through the year, yet it feels like a lifetime since January. I remember stepping into 2024 with hope and a twinkle of optimism, the kind that only the end of December can muster. But life, ever the unpredictable trickster, had other plans. […]
