A Strong Fighter and an Even Stronger Woman

Posted on May 11, 2013 | 1 Comment

Oh, QL ,I have missed you sooo … M is back after a short break!!

Born Boyd Burton, Fallon Fox became the first transgender fighter in mixed martial arts (MMA).  It has been a difficult road since she came out to the public in Sports Illustrated. Receiving supports from her trainers and gym family, fans on Facebook , and kind words from locals in Ohio. Fox’s announcement has not gained as much support as  basketball players Jason Collins and Britney Griner did when they came out to the public. This was such a good story of an inspiring woman and her passion.I admire Fallon Fox for who she is as a fighter and as a woman competing in the MMA. I admire her for coming out, for taking a stand for transgender athletes. I support her.

MMMMadness …..March Madness Or Mustache March

Posted on March 4, 2013 | 2 Comments

Its that first week of March, I thought I would take time and give a couple of reasons why I am excited about March:

1. The NCAA Basketball Tournaments start! These Gents play for the love of the game and I love this game! ( with that said I used to play sports as well as a cheerleader in HS and college. )

2. Spring is coming! The birdies are gonna chirp and the flowers bloom and this confounded snow will melt!

3. St. Patty’s day- Green Beer and Black n’ Tans.  Best part …my Creme de Menthe cupcakes. Yumm-o and a Lime Gimmlet Martini

4. Mustache and Mullets !? Priceless =)

What type are you ? and the case of the Mondays

Posted on November 12, 2012 | 1 Comment

Happy Monday to all! It’s a fine cold and snowy day; my projects have forced me to get silly. I would give a shout out off my mountaintop and break the monotony of a first day to the work week. This is something fun so don’t let the title deceive you .

First some insight, I am studying Graphic Design at Weber State and it is my senior year. My colleagues and I, have grown to know our type and where it comes from.This site is both enjoyable and gets people excited to see what type they are. It can even make you go and research your type further. And no it is not what you think.( And no, I do not normally post things like this.)

In less than a minute you to can learn what type you are in a sophisticated and yet fun manner.

C’mon… break your Monday monotony. What type are you? I will tell you if you tell me :)

Check out the rest of the site. One of my favorite designers Paula Scher( One of the first female graphic designers to hit the “big time”) is a partner for this firm.

A “Spirit” Visit From Utah? Huh?

Posted on September 30, 2012 | Leave a comment

Hey Ya’ll ! You know out of all the states I have lived in, Utah  ( believe it or not) has an array of things that make it a state of its own. I know , I know, you are  probably thinking “Utah? Really? I thought it was just full of Mormons and conservatives…oh and Mitt Romney ( if that interesting name rings a bell or better yet sounds off a warning siren.”)  On the contrary, I too thought this when I  moved from my lovely , beautiful, sunny California.  Over the years , I have learned to venture out and found the great things about this state. For example, I have mountains in backyard, I can hike at some of the most gorgeous place I have ever seen (especially in the fall), the art scene , the lovely open minded people , not to mention the Pride community here is awesome, and lastly, the connoisseurs of locally produced fine beverages! Woot Woot!
