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’s the oldest things you’re wearing today? I have several closets full of dresses and more dresses. A closet full of shoes and more shoes. A closet maxed out in blouses, shirts, and jeans. And, many of these are older than a decade. I just can’t follow that […]
I’m a bit of a night owl. I’m tired but wife aeake at 2am. And, what a night it has been. First off, we haven’t seen the resident groundhog. We are afraid that the fox ate him. Second, we heard a terrifying cry from an animal. I looked […]

What’s one small improvement you can make in your life? This week was supposed to be one on which I could finally get some certainty and make decisions. Yet, the week continues to be one in which I continue to have a mounting set of problems and decisions […]

The dog woke me up at 7am and wanted a long walk. And, he was peppy. He did his business, sniffed the roses, and looked up at me with his brown/green eyes. I was going to take this to be his way of communicating “happy mother’s day” to […]
In chaos, there is calm. And, in calm, there are storms. Fire. It stirs the belly. A coloring book reminds one of a time when coloring within the lines was a cheered-on skill. We once felt good with such little tasks. Now, she knew this was a momentary […]
What was the last live performance you saw? It’s been ages since I saw a performance in some kind of stage. I have actually been quite fortunate to watch live performances-really good jazz ones- on the block down from me in Brooklyn. That is one beautiful, awesome part […]
I was recently, at midnight, watching a stand-up comedy special to try to help me sleep. I specifically was watching John Mulvaney’s latest stand-up special. The one after his rehab stint. It was funny. It was self-deprecating. It was timely. I think, in many ways, there are a […]
