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.
I, like many nowadays, love traveling. The world has managed to get smaller. Sadly, I must work and as an American I only get so many vacation days a year. So, I have to make my vacations really count. For me that means, I wake up at […]

She loved arts and crafts ever since she was a little girl. Even though the teachers terrorized her with their critiques. Who would have done that to a twelve-year-old? Only monsters. As she mixed the newly created paints together, her tears got swept up within. She mixed […]
