I love to travel, try new foods, ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. A psychologist by training trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
It’s Monday. Again. The eternal return. The alarm clock’s betrayal. The caffeine scramble. That moment you look in the mirror and say, “Is this the week I finally catch up… or unravel spectacularly with flair?” But lo and behold—it’s Cinco de Mayo! And while I’m not a margarita […]
Cue the music, flash the lights, and someone hand me a slice of cake — it’s my birthday and my birthday month! Yes, I’m celebrating, and no, you absolutely cannot contain me. What’s wrong with being confident anyway? We spend so much of our lives being told to […]
Where’s the remote? Under the dachshund. Where’s my phone? Also under the dachshund. Where’s the one document I need for this meeting that starts in 2 minutes? You guessed it: dachshund butt territory. He sits on the things I need most. But maybe, just maybe, he’s onto something. […]
It’s Friday, my friends. And not just any Friday—it’s one of those Fridays. The kind where your freshly done hair bounces with just a little more flair, your garden is blooming with possibility, and your inner voice is humming, “Yes, queen, we are making moves.” I bought myself […]
It’s the first of May. My birthday month. A time when some people post their baby pictures, others their biggest flexes, and a few brave souls post their actual faces unfiltered. Meanwhile, I remain… strategically obscured. Un-selfied. A fog machine away from full noir. Let’s talk about that. […]
Let’s talk about something no one put on their vision board in January: curated nostalgia. It’s not just a vibe. It’s a survival mechanism. And it might just be the most underrated form of self-care we’ve got. You see, I’ve been time-traveling lately—not via DeLorean, but through carefully […]
Some people treat your emotional energy like it’s on tap. Unlimited refills. Always available. Open 24/7 like a neon-lit diner in the Bronx. And the worst part? They never deposit. Just constant withdrawals. Suddenly, you’re left drained, annoyed, and questioning all your life choices, including answering that one […]
Ah, Monday. The great illusionist. The David Blaine of the calendar. One moment it’s 8:00 a.m. and you’re mapping out your grand plans, whispering motivational quotes to yourself like you’re about to scale Everest in heels. And then—poof!—it’s 5:43 p.m., you’re unsure of what actually got done, and […]
Today, I got one of those oh-so-helpful “On This Day” memory nudges from my cloud drive. You know, those digital ghost notes that chirp: *Hey! Remember this magical moment from April 27th in 2017, 2019, 2022…? Well, apparently, I was very busy pretending to enjoy things on past […]
Every morning, like clockwork, my middle pup stakes out the sun spot. You know the one — that little slice of golden warmth on the rug between the hours of 9:00 and 10:15. And every morning, he lies in it like he discovered electricity. He doesn’t care that […]
