I do not do staycations, really. I like to go on foreign vacations or cross-country roadtrips. Occasionally, around the Christmas holiday I do a small staycation right before I go on holiday vacation. I don’t want to pay the increased costs associated with going on vacation during […]
Let me just state from the outset I love the television show The Gilmore Girls. I am ecstatic that we get four more episodes come this fall and that we finally get to find out what were the intended final four words. If you understood that sentence […]

As I write this, I am alternating between having the giggles, feeling guilty and repeatedly singing (and wanting to mute myself) “It’s a small world after all.” Talk about a horrifying earworm. But before I explain my current state of being, let me provide a backdrop. I am […]
I am a clumsy person by nature. Ever since I can remember, I have been twisting my ankles, walking into walls and just generally walking a zig zag pattern. If people didn’t know better, they would think I am drunk. I’d like to attribute my clumsiness to the […]
