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.
Today, I have nothing snarky to share. Go figure. Today, I have no mundane anecdote to share in the guise of furthering a larger, deeper conversation. Today, I have no pet peeves to rant and rave about. Today, instead I present my tradition, where I thank my mother […]
The lushness was indescribable and just awe-inspiring. She felt more alive then ever as her bare feet crunched the leaves beneath her. They were so crunchy that she wanted to eat them. She did have some carrots with her that would go well with the leaves. She never […]
