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.
It’s past midnight, and here I am, eyes glued to the glow of my phone, scrolling through Twitter like it’s the key to unlocking the mysteries of the universe. Spoiler alert: it’s not. Instead, I’m bombarded with cat videos, political rants, and that one guy live-tweeting his epic […]
In today’s edition of “What the Heck is Happening?”, a small town in Idaho has been thrown into a tizzy over a mysterious waffle iron that supposedly fell from the sky. Yes, you read that right—a waffle iron. It seems even the cosmos is craving some breakfast carbs. […]
So there I was, minding my own business, when a squadron of bees decided I was prime real estate. Not one, not two, but three stings. Arm, neck, leg – a trifecta of pain and puffiness. Now, I’m walking around looking like a bizarre version of the Michelin […]
I finally got stung by a bee. For years, I’ve been mortified of this very moment, ever since I watched “My Girl” and sobbed through the tragic bee sting scene. That was the first movie that ever made me cry, and it left an indelible mark on my […]
Ah, Saturdays. A day for rest, relaxation, and perusing the oddities of the news world. Let’s dive into a couple of head-scratchers from today’s headlines and find some levity amidst the madness. First up, the story of a Florida man who tried to evade arrest by cartwheeling away […]
Ah, Generation X, the cohort that practically invented resilience. We were the latchkey kids, roaming free without GPS tracking, learning independence from a young age. Our afternoons were filled with MTV, where Madonna’s “Like a Virgin” was the anthem of rebellion. Commercials taught us how to battle everything […]
Is it Thursday already? Or should I say, finally? This week has felt like it’s lasted a month, and last week’s 4th of July falling on a Thursday didn’t help. Celebrating freedom with fireworks only to drag myself to work on Friday was a mental challenge of epic […]
After years of commuting through the urban jungle, I’ve come to a startling conclusion: we should subsidize earphones for everyone, especially those crammed into crowded trains. Picture this: it’s 7:30 a.m., and you’re wedged between a chatty Cathy on her morning call and a big, burly 20-something guy […]
It’s a totally random Tuesday, and I started with a grand plan for tacos. But life had other ideas. Instead, I stumbled upon an offbeat restaurant I’d never been to (and probably won’t return to), where I watched an epic Spain vs. France Eurocup match. The game was […]
Ah, Monday—our old, uninvited friend. This one starts with a bang: my car refuses to work, the weather forecast promises a toasty 90 degrees, and a heat rash has made an unwelcome appearance. Classic Monday, right? Pop culture has a field day with the Monday blues, and it […]
