My family is a bit kooky. And in that we're perfectly normal I suppose. Since I don't have a "fly-on-the-wall" access to my friends and neighbors' homes, am assuming that their kookiness can rival and often outdo mine. Those who are painfully normal, I don't know what to say...you are clearly the minority amongst us.... Continue Reading →
Driving Dairies
Imagine this...you're driving on a crowded market road; pedestrians jostling with vendors, buses bearing down on you and the inevitable morons who insist on driving with the high beam on; blinding you for what seems like eternity. To add to the fun, imagine shielding a plastic bag full of fish for the aquarium; on the... Continue Reading →
Riding In The Car With A Boy
I don't have to drive my kid around much since he started going to grade school 2 years ago. By the time he gets home it's usually late afternoon and then he snacks, plays, does his homework or has play dates in the community we live in so we seldom step out during weekdays. On...

Frankenstein and Kettle bells
Disclaimer: I have no verifiable knowledge that Frankenstein's Monster ever used kettle bells on those brawny arms of his. However, if he had, it would totally explain why he walked like he had an atomic wedgie going on 24/7! * For the uninitiated am going to add a link here about what an atomic wedgie...

The Non-Pathological Word Salad
Psych 101 introduced me to the notion of a word salad and initially I found it quite an interesting concept while it was still a theory in my books. Then over time I actually witnessed, heard rather, quite a few word salads while I was interning in various places; attempting to become a psychologist. And now,... Continue Reading →

Another year, another cake and more food for thought!
Of Mat Jumps and Face Packs…
I don't consciously try and make the blog titles esoteric or cryptic even..they just pop out of my head, all baked and ready to go. Quite like how this happened. And in case anyone is interested (Pshaw! Yeah right...) how that happened...read it right here. Onto the actual stuff I wanted to convey...I've been doing... Continue Reading →
The Shackles of Empowerment
After publishing my post last evening, I was thinking about how things are in the world around me these days and I can't help but think of women and how some lives are changing every day and others might be stuck in a different era for all the changes they have been exposed to. While... Continue Reading →
