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 briefcase was heavier than it looked. Gold bars would do that. But, of course, no one knew about the briefcase’s content. None of it. She parked the car gently because that was all she knew to do. Plus, her mind was racing. Thus, everything else needed to […]
Pet peeves, despite being fundamentally annoying, can be fun. Or rather, one can laugh at them. Or rather, one can laugh at the people who have some silly pet peeves. Or, you can commiserate and list out your own. Today, someone shared with me several of their pet […]
