What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time? People love to play that hypothetical game of “If you could only carry one thing with you..” And usually, it’s practical stuff. Wallet. Keys. Cell phone. The classics. But here’s the thing. Wallets are becoming […]
The sky in Antigua this morning is giving big “I stayed up too late but I’m still showing up” energy. The sun is there, somewhere, trying to peek through the clouds like a shy celebrity avoiding the paparazzi. It’s that awkward moment between night’s gossip and day’s to-do […]
There’s something magical about watching my dogs operate as a pack. Not magical in the Disney-princess-singing-to-birds kind of way. It’s more like the “oh dear lord, the neighbors think we’ve lost it” kind of way. It usually starts with the middle one. He’s the ringleader. The union boss. […]
Some Wednesdays stretch like hot taffy left on a dashboard. Sticky. Slightly regrettable. And somehow still oddly satisfying. It’s that time of week where the to-do list has morphed into a didn’t-do-it list, the iced coffee lost its chill hours ago, and your inbox has become a crime […]
Some say Mondays are the worst. But Tuesdays? Tuesdays are sneakier. They lull you into thinking the week has begun, that you’re already mid-stream… when really, you’re still paddling in circles with coffee that isn’t quite strong enough and eyelids that are on strike. Today, I am operating […]

Lately, I’ve been on a binge. Not of chocolate-covered espresso beans (though those were involved) but of music documentaries. You know, the kind that unwrap a legend’s life like a glittery, bruised onion: layer after emotional layer, until you’re left sniffling and singing along in your bathrobe. The […]
Sometimes you read a news story and think, “Surely this is the pitch for the next Marvel movie, right?” But no! This is just Tuesday in 2025. Here’s the scoop: down in South Carolina at a former nuclear weapons site (because of course), employees discovered a radioactive wasp […]
What’s your go-to comfort food? Let’s talk about pizza. Not haute cuisine. Not microfoam cappuccinos or farm-to-table kale. Just good old-fashioned, cheesy, slightly greasy, possibly folded-in-half New York-style pizza. The real universal food or as I like to call it, “the one thing that unites my household, my […]
Was today typical? Some days are so quintessentially typical they loop right back around into chaos. Yesterday was one of those. A day that screamed, “You know better!” while I marched forward like a caffeine-fueled general on a self-imposed battlefield of calendar invites and step goals. Let’s start […]
