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 just had a mentally and physically hard week. Ten to twelve hour days filled with stressful interactions while I tried to maintain a smile and calm demeanor. I would have loved a primal scream moment. But, alas, no such opportunity arose. Most others would treat themselves to […]
When I was a young girl, I was a major nerd that definitely tried to get in good with the teachers. I was sweet, timid and smart. The teachers did, for the most part, like me. I was their success story. When school district administrators came by […]
Sometimes I like to watch really bad televison to just either fall asleep or to numb my racing mind after a long day of work. Have you ever watched the television show Scorpion? It is one of the most ludicrous shows out there. Each episode gets more and […]
