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.
Some Wacky Poor Choices We are nearing the end of 2014. For some it can’t come soon enough. Myself included. It’s been a bit of an off year. The last few months, as a result, have not had my usual wacky weird news posts. I have come to […]
Despite my parasite, I still trust my gut My parasite this past year knocked me down for a bit. Knocked me over physically for sure, although the day after leaving the ER I was back to work. I’m crazy and dedicated like that. Plus, the work just needed […]
Here we go again: Nuyorican, Gringa, and Puerto Rican what shall I be labelled? Nuyoricans are a funny bunch. They have a mixed cultural identity that is extremely strong that forms a strong core component of their being. The term broadly refers to the Puerto Rican diaspora experience. […]

Loving hands exploring the world There is one month left to till the end of the year. Deep-seated nostalgia takes root. Remembrance of trips, happy moments and lessons learned from throughout the year. Combing through some old photos, made me think of how quickly my little boy is […]

The dark side of living each day as if it were your last I recently read someone’s Facebook post that had me laughing for a few minutes. This particular individual is quiet dark so most of their posts are dark, dark humor. Their post noted that if […]
