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.

The Psychology of Unicorns and Professional Lines in the Workplace: Mythical Entities?

By psychologistmimi on February 7, 2013 • ( 3 Comments )

Dear Diary, Yesterday was as loopy as the day before and probably just as loopy as today promises to be.  It is amazing that people are always talking about not crossing a certain line, but they then find their own line they feel comfortable crossing to the dismay of […]

The absurdist theatrical nature of the non-profit workplace

By psychologistmimi on February 3, 2013 • ( Leave a comment )

Have you ever seen a production in the genre of the “Theater of the Absurd”? Plays within this particular theatrical universe are absurd in that they focus, not on logic, realistic events, character development, or traditional storytelling, rather on a world where anything goes, no matter how illogical, […]

A Celestial Psychological Birthday Party: My Mom’s Death Anniversary

By psychologistmimi on February 2, 2013 • ( 1 Comment )

Punxsutawney Phil emerged from his burrow in Pennsylvania this morning and saw his beautiful shadow; thus predicting an early spring arrival. Boy, am I excited by that news. Could really use it. Today, besides Punxsutawney Phil’s shadow dancing, is also the two-year anniversary of when my “Puerto Rican […]

The Psychology of Workplace Dynamics: It’s ok to be a phony, as long as it is authentic

By psychologistmimi on January 27, 2013 • ( 183 Comments )

“Societies are being commodified and virtualized, with everyday life becoming saturated with toxic levels of inauthenticity we’re forced to breathe” –Gilmore & Pine (2007) Here in New York City, you come across phonies all the time. Go to Chinatown and you can get a fake Louis Vuitton, Gucci […]

To Sneeze: Blessing Evil Spirits Away, Acknowledging One’s Humanity

By psychologistmimi on January 22, 2013 • ( 15 Comments )

It is a major flu season. Local pharmacies are running out of the flu vaccine. There is a high probability that you just sneezed in the last few hours. If you just sneezed, something was probably irritating or tickling the inside of your nose. And if you just […]

Oh, The Fear of Fog (Homichlophobia) and Global Weirding

By psychologistmimi on January 18, 2013 • ( 1 Comment )

“I fear no army or beast, but only the morning fog. Our assault can survive everything else.” —Lord Hilneth (the fog card in Magic the gathering)  Fog. It can bring the darkness to the world and fill one with suspicion.  You can round a corner in San Francisco […]

..and the Oscar goes to Me at the Golden Globes?

By psychologistmimi on January 14, 2013 • ( Leave a comment )

Growing up, as probably many of you have done as well, I used to fantasize my name being called out after the known little phrase “and the Oscar goes to” was uttered. In my fantasy, I would run up the stage in a stunning deep red gown. I never […]

Pro Milone: Ode to my Imperial, Diva Dog. May He Rest in Peace

By psychologistmimi on January 12, 2013 • ( 4 Comments )

As a Puerto Rican, I am naturally (genetically) superstitious. Everything had a supernatural or karmic sensibility to it. I always was afraid of Friday, the 13th and tried to avoid doing certain things on those days. My mom would try to not really have us step out of […]

Screwball Comedy Films: Its Time for a Comeback

By psychologistmimi on January 10, 2013 • ( Leave a comment )

Thankfully (having just returned from an exhausting roadtrip to Amelia Island, Florida), I had a rather restful New Year’s Eve celebration, one which entailed watching CNN’s countdown with Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin. They have been doing this now for over five years and what keeps people watching […]
