An alternative for March Madness


I was on a Zoom video chat with some high school friends last night and someone mentioned that they had seen this on another blog and just had to share it.  It definitely let me have a giggle while all of the rest of the world seems to be in chaos.  For full blog post associated with this, click here.

For me, 'can't identify a single solo hobby you even have' wins in the top bracket.  For the bottom bracket, I feel like I want to pin 'still touching your face 69 times per day' and 'laughing and then crying when your 6th grader niece rebranded COVID-19 to The Boomer Remover', but that isn't how brackets work...... so the still touching your face would probably win.

When those two go head-to-head, pretty sure that not being able to identify a single solo hobby comes out on top!

Who would 'win' for you??

    My final four would be:

    1. This is the new me, I just look out the window? - 7 Seed!
    2. Genuinely enjoying that marble racing video - 1 seed
    3. Plan to exercise on lunch breaks is over on day 2 - 6 seed!
    4. There has never been a better time to keep not going to the dentist - 5 seed.

    Championship would come down to the marble vid vs the dentist probably - and the marble vid would win. I want more marble racing vids!

    Also maybe i should go to the dentist... hmm...

I've recently started doing some research on the recommendations for women when they begin trying to conceive (TTC - a new abbreviation that I've become aware of).  The internet, as many of us know, can sometimes be a bit of a black hole.  You go in looking for one thing and come out with a million more questions and even more confusion than you started with.  Which is why, I didn't JUST go to the internet.  I also sent texts out to all of my friends who are already mommas and asked them to share with me what they did during this stage. What I received from friends was a sense of excitement that this journey was close to beginning for me, knowledge sharing about what worked for them, questions about the timing we were considering, and ultimately just support and an offer of being there for whatever questions come up during my research & the process in general. I maybe shouldn't have chosen the week of my period to dive into all of this.... as most women know, hor...

I have two fabulous friends who both work in the TV/film industry as second assistant directors.  I wish I could say that I was even one tenth the connoisseur of their art as they are, but sadly I only dabble.  I just recently started watching a show that one of them worked on a few seasons of -  Younger .  More on that later...    This weekend, I found myself getting the scary news that one of my best friends was suddenly in the hospital.  This friend is a generally healthy, active, and wonderful individual.  Their partner texted me early one morning that they had an arterial dissection on the back of their head at the base of their neck. I'm not happy to share that I've actually had two other close friends go through something terrifyingly similar over the past few years.  Neither of these friends were really given a clear answer as to why they had these episodes.  The recovery, though lengthy and requiring close monitoring near the ...

I've recently started seeing a new therapist.  As you may have seen from my last post, I've also been thinking about visiting smash rooms to let out emotions (still haven't managed to try one out yet!).   For me, therapy has always been a space where I am able to get vulnerable and real with someone who really doesn't know me.  And even though it happens every time I return to therapy for support, I'm always surprised to hear the shock that many mental health professionals have at my steadfast and lofty standards, for myself exclusively.  These standards, of course, began for me at a very young age. In psychology, the concept of nature vs. nurture is often discussed.  This is the idea that both nature and nurture play a role in how someone turns out. Experiments have shown that even identical twins can develop significant differences when they grow up in different environments.  Most research, however, eventually posits that both nature and nurtu...
