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
What TV shows did you watch as a kid? It’s amazing how sometimes we subject ourselves to things, situations, and events that are disagreeable to us. I used to watch the Tom and Jerry cartoon despite disliking each of those characters? I suppose that was a way to […]
What’s your favorite time of day? I’m an early bird. I can’t help it. Even when I want to sleep in, I can’t. My body considers 9 am to be late. Sadly, or unfortunately, my dog is an even earlier “early” bird than I am. This past morning, […]
A non-fictional band has a top 10 hit. Stevie Nicks wrote a rave review of a Amazon series that is a fake documentary of a fake band. However, many would say that tbe Six -Featuring Daisy Jones- could be based on the great, legendary band Fleetwood Mac. I […]
Tell us about the last thing you got excited about. This has been an extremely trying year. And, after each challenge, I felt “excited” about either moving on or making it through to the other side. You don’t go through a year of a spouse’s death, cancer diagnosis […]
I am currently in a foreign country, having a glass of wine watching my son across the table. The waiter asked him whether he wanted a glass of wine as well. I chuckled and noted that he had just turned 15. The waiter shrugged and asked again. My […]
I love high heels. For work. However, out on cobblestone streets or potholed New York City streets, high heels are a bit impractical. I laugh a little bit when I see women wobbling in 5-inch heels on the Brooklyn Pier. Why do people subject themselves to that? I […]
I am truly hoping that I will get some sleep tonight. Actually, a lot of sleep. For me, that’s six hours. I would be ecstatic at seven hours but will happily take six. Sigh. I had one of those days where I did not have downtime. I woke […]
What do you enjoy most about writing? Writing is an outlet. It’s my friend. It’s my pal. It’s my confidant. It’s my confidence builder. Words can be true and can serve as escapism. Words can enlighten. They can obscure. Writing provided comfort to my mother. She wrote poems […]
What do you love about where you live? The past year, I’ve really been thinking about what it is that I love about New York. I’ve always lived it, and I believe that I always will. New York is both an easy and difficult city to love. So […]
What positive emotion do you feel most often? Serenity. That is a nice word. Calm. Peace. Zen. A beautiful kid’s name, as well. It’s a state of being that I fear too little of us experience. It seems that nowadays, we’re in a constant state of cacophony. We […]
