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’m going to start this piece with a phrase that perhaps sounds a bit trite. But a mother’s love knows no bounds. My mother sacrificed much for me and I can never allow myself to forget it. With my son, I would do anything for him. I do […]
I have always been attracted to fire. Mesmerized. Intoxicated by it. It’s beautiful and dances alluringly so. Sadly, I have also seen firsthand the detriments of fire having had my home many, mnay years ago burned down. I was actually a young girl, a toddler and it is […]
A long time ago I caught this great film, a documentary, called The Thin Blue Line by Errol Morris. It is the story of a man who was convicted and sentenced to death for a murder he did not commit. The film was haunting. The musical score stayed […]
When I’m watching television these days, more often than not, I’m watching pre-recorded shows on my DVR. I don’t have time to watch live shows. I’m tired from work. Have more work to do at home. And have to first watch my son’s nightly cartoon shows. How does […]

I am still figuring Los Angeles out. What makes it tick. What makes it grand. If it is grand. One of the things I do love about Los Angeles is the street art. Everywhere you go there is street art that makes you think, laugh or get […]
There was a period of time, when I was young, in which it seemed I was headed towards a career in holography. I wasn’t a STEM student, although I was labeled as gifted. Yet, holograms were part of my thought considerations. There were times when it appeared that […]
I have a ton of allergies. I’m severely allergic to shellfish and cat dander. Just sitting next to someone who has cats sends me into a sneezing frenzy. I’m.allergic to mold. But considering how gross it us, shouldn’t everyone be allergic to mold as well. I suppose mold […]
As a New Yorker I have a horrible relationship with rats. I dislike them. I fear them. I have run away screaming from them. We have them in the subways. We even have bubonic plague. We do. We really do. We had them in the empty yard across […]
