I’m a fitness obsessed gamer chick who happens to have spent the last 9 years working in the video game industry, and the last 6 as a designer and producer. As for my specific work history and real life identity, I’ll leave that outta this blog because I occasionally like to (god damn mother fucking up the goat ass) swear and that might not jive with the spirit of my work. I do love working on games. In an average day, I get to scream into a microphone, get in the middle of people chasing each other around with nerf guns and hulk hands, write stories about trolls, and get a lot of use out of my talent for bad puns. There is a lot of making schedules, stress from bosses wanting perfection in an imperfect world, and repetitive stuff in there too, but at least I can show up to work in shorts and a t-shirt or pajamas if I want!
Outside work - I spend at least 5-7 hours per week on athletic endeavors and the pursuit of fitness, specifically running, dance dance revolution 
on the hardest settings, yoga, weight training, rockclimbing (not outside), cycling, and skating. My latest passion is running races, I’ve done a handful of 5ks, a 5 mile, a 10k, and 2 half marathons. I plan to run a full marathon in Nov 2010, and hopefully come to my senses after that and stop running so much (not likely).
I have lost pretty much a whole person since January 2007. You can check out my progress page if you are curious about my mass, that is, if I ever start updating it again. In case your wondering - eating take out and drinking lots of beer and liquor for the better part of a decade makes you fat, and fat is not fun. Oh, the process of getting fat is fun, but once you’re there, it’s teh suck. 
Fortunately, you can still drink beer and eat takeout and be skinny, you just have to do it less often. And in smaller quantities. And move your ass a little (lot) as well.
When I’m not ordering people around at work or doing laps around my neighborhood or shedding people, I enjoy spending time with Zliten, my husband and partner in crime, playing video games, cooking up new tasty and nutritious recipes, making beaded necklaces which one day I hope to sell on Etsy, writing novels I’ll likely not finish, shopping at thrift stores, watching DVD series of sci fi, anime, or 
anything by Aaron Sorkin, and drinking tasty beverages with my gaggle of geeky friends. I used to do some art and writing stuff which you can see at the main site, but it’s all well over 5 years old and getting pretty stinky by now. I pretty much draw stick figures and write really whiny and/or technical non-fiction type stuff instead.
Also, in spite of what your parents said, my face did not freeze like this. Make funny faces, laugh, love, and be silly. Life is too short not to act like you’re 10 years old when you can get away with it.
