Let’s paint a picture; when we sit and think about the culinary industry it is almost natural to imagine a man with a thick British accent screaming at the cooks about everything they are doing wrong, tearing everyone down piece by piece. Is that what really happens though? In some cases, yes, but not in […]
Whether you’re looking for culture of the theatrical kind or of the service kind, this weekend holds something that will get you involved or help you escape from the world around you, if only for a little bit. The Monster Within Quite possibly the most famous (and misunderstood) monster in our popular culture anymore is […]
For some couples, it can be frustrating to go out into a wintery landscape and work together as a team. I for one say it’s important to get outside as a couple, and learning how to ski or snowboard or even teaching your significant other how can really help build a relationship. Now granted you […]
It’s Movember, the time when men grow mustaches to raise awareness for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and big health issues for men. The Movember Foundation is dedicated to improving quality of life for men, 60% of whom don’t go to the doctor and only 7% of whom actually talk about their health. Men […]

A while back, we’re all […]
As many of you know, I have epilepsy. Last month I celebrated being 18 months seizure free! I started having grand mal seizures when I was a teenager. I had several tests, but the doctors could not find out what was causing them. The medical professionals told me I could have multiple seizures every day […]
Let’s talk about boundaries. I have spent the last month in a state of increased awareness about my absolutely terrible ability to set boundaries. Or, maybe the problem is that I’m really good at setting them, or knowing what they should be if I were to set them, and I have an absolutely terrible time […]
This weekend brings us many things, including Fall Back (or you know, more accurately, the end of Daylight Savings Time). But, if you dread that kind of change, you can get your mind off it with a plethora (though a smaller plethora) of new events this weekend. Magic! Friday nights at Gryphon Comics and Games, […]
Let’s face it Colorado is beautiful in the fall but for some, it just is not their favorite time to camp.
