<\/p>\n…I dunno, I made up the title because it looked cool.\u00a0 I do these things.\u00a0 Please excuse my brain fritters today as I don’t have all that much to talk about, and it’s WAY too late in the day to start thinking of a coherent post on a super serious subject.\u00a0 So I’m-a gonna go for a bunch of different tidbits today.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I Love Game(s), or Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n Everyone is doing the questions thing, and I’ve been trying with little to no biters (perhaps I’m like Mrs. Fatass and a little too much of a sharer?) – but I’m going to try again.\u00a0 I’m trying to come up with some gaming\/game industry posts and I’m curious… what do YOU want to know from the world behind the curtain of making interactive entertainment?\u00a0 I can only give you my biased and generic opinion, but I have been at this going on 9 years now in a variety of different positions.<\/p>\n So, my friends – ask me ANYTHING about my day job in video game production or games or the industry in general.\u00a0 Is it all really like EA Spouse says it is?\u00a0 I’ll answer what I can without getting fired\/burning bridges\/etc.\u00a0 Knowledge is yours for the price of one comment below.\u00a0 Or you can email me – pinksparkly at yahoo dot com.<\/p>\n For The Love (of Running):<\/strong><\/p>\n I am now just about 50-some hours post-half and honestly?\u00a0 Really stoked to be lacing up my shoes here shortly for another run.\u00a0 If you’ll remember (old skoolers), last July saw me take almost the WHOLE MONTH off running save 2 very half hearted 5ks.\u00a0 August wasn’t much better.<\/p>\n Today, I anticipate needing to keep myself under race pace because I am rip-roaring-ready to go.\u00a0 Not terribly looking forward to the treadmill (damn you early sunsets), but really feel the want to be moving.<\/p>\n Love running.\u00a0 Love the 3 day a week training.\u00a0 Feeling lots of love woogies today for my sport.\u00a0 I am my own dutch fan.<\/p>\n (In My) Tummy Love:<\/strong><\/p>\n One week from today, I get on the scale and begin Project: Lose the Half Marathon Weight.\u00a0 I haven’t weighed in a few weeks, but I’m pretty sure that I’m up there.\u00a0 Or my body image is VERY twisted right now, as nothing looks right on me and I feel like I have this oddly inflated tire around my midsection.\u00a0 I’m looking forward to figuring this out again after a few weeks of refreshingly NOT CARING AT ALL.<\/p>\n Tonight, when I am done eating, I will be tracking everything.\u00a0 I’m going to estimate my intake today at around 1700 with everything I have eaten\/have planned.\u00a0 I’d like to shrink that closer to 1400? 1300?\u00a0 It will have to depend on my activity but all I know is that I don’t seem to succeed in losing weight unless those numbers are lowlowlow.\u00a0 My maintain window is about THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSS big, and my lose window is about <> big.<\/p>\n I did some reading about marathoning and one expert suggested eating 4.5g carb per 1 lb of bodyweight. 675g of carbs?\u00a0 I’m pretty sure that’s what I eat normally – oh yeah, divide that in 3.\u00a0 On a really carby day.\u00a0 That looks like juice instead of water all day (oh yeah, and you need to stay hydrated so probably both), and chowing down Michael Phelps sized portions of pasta, rice, potatoes…\u00a0 Right now I am NOT looking forward to that because I’m really really ready for my half-appetite to go away and not feel like a bottomless pit for a while.<\/p>\n …but I’m not going to lie.\u00a0 I think I’m up to the challenge.\u00a0 And I don’t know HOW far my appetite is going to really go down as I’m still planning on a long run every 2-3 weeks.\u00a0 Argh!\u00a0 I am going to be the fattest marathoner ever.\u00a0 Tee hee.\u00a0 Not really.\u00a0 If I’m not pushing pace as hard, I can suck it up and be a little weaker for a few.\u00a0 I’ll figure it out somehow.\u00a0 I’m pretty sure I can throw out “underate” for the reason I didn’t lose weight during this 3 months (fo sho), so now it’s just figuring out what will work for this jumble-y wumble-y bod of mine.\u00a0 Or maybe next Tuesday I’ll hop on the scale and it will scream “UNDER 155 STOP STRESSING NOOB” at me, and I’ll go on my merry way.<\/p>\n And stop stressing I shall.\u00a0 Starting right now, when I lace up and go for a nice relaxed run, not training for a damn thing, not worrying about my weight, not even worried about my job.\u00a0 Today is for abandoning the worry and becoming one with the ‘mill.\u00a0 Let’s see how long THAT lasts…<\/p>\n EDIT:\u00a0 No post today (2\/18).\u00a0 Taking the night off. \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 But – I’m hopping on that “ask anything” blogger train.\u00a0 Submit your annoymous questions<\/a> here!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/media.fukung.net\/images\/12034\/funny_pictures_44915.jpg\")
