marathon training and lifting during SDCC

because no one wrote an article about this.  A few observations: you can do it, but it's probably better to take it as a deload week due to all the walking, standing, and jostling on top of the runs. my calves are so shot that I didn't run at all today. BUT, again, you CAN do it.  while there are less crowds running towards the airport from the Star of India, you can only get about 9 miles without running into Liberty Station and having to run through random shopping districts  and you can't really run the famous Embarcadero route because it's full of Hall H queuers -- the paths are not all open. you can run one of the parks, but not the one near the con If you run towards Seaport from the Star of India you will run out of path, even with taking the peninsulas, after about 2.9 miles.  so much looping. so much freaking looping around to hit mileage targets. holy hell.  Please note, all of this assumes starting at the Hotel Little Italy / Courtyard Marriott Little...

Strange denizens of the Parc on center gym

The Two Ghosts I either lift at Parc or at Orem Rec depending on the day. But when I go to lift at Parc pre-dawn, there has always been this couple that is running on the treadmills in pitch darkness.  It's super creepy. Are these NPCs? Ghosts? No matter. Lights ON, WAKEY WAKEY EGGS AND BAKEY. If you wanted to run in total darkness, there's this thing called "outside", and it has cool coyotes and shit.  Slides and Hoodie Guy It's July, and currently hotter than Satan's sweaty armpit. But this guy is lifting in a hoodie and sweats, and is wearing slides and socks. If he's the only one in there, the fan will be off. ???? The gym is lucky I wear more than just my Janji half tights this time of year. And why lift in slides? Do you want to die? I Have Chosen The Dumbbells For My Cell Phone's Perch This lady always puts her cell phone ON TOP OF A PAIR OF DUMBBELLS, WHILE THEY ARE ON THE RACK, and then goes to lift with a different set of dumbbells. She does ...

There is no love in the world

All around me I see nothing but people settling.  I will never do this. Either I find her or I die alone wishing for her and searching for her in the next life.  There are no compromises and no exceptions ever. I will never do what everyone else is doing. I'd rather lie in the dirt and let the earth reclaim me.

Evil fortune cookie ideas:

You will die alone in a basement apartment with 27 cats. Others will always recognize your many flaws. There are no silver linings on those dark clouds above you. Your final memory will be choking to death on a chocolate chip pancake smothered in syrup and whipped cream while at an IHOP in the middle of Indiana. The spider you couldn’t get last night in your bathroom is currently laying eggs. When you lie awake tonight, always remember that no one is ever going to love you. Your mom. Your friends have an extra group chat without you in it. You will sneeze during a job interview and a visible amount of saliva will land on the interviewer's desk. Your friend will get an empty slot on their Super Duolingo plan and will give it to another friend instead of you. You can’t just wait on the pizzle and on the dizzle. You must also wait upon the shizzle. Do not commit tax fraud. That is a felony. Just because it’s moral doesn’t mean it’s legal. It is not advisable to commit se...

Utah logic:

Take Vyvanse: ok uwu Take caffeine (not even coffee or preworkout) because you're an endurance athlete who doesn't want to mess with your heart rate like Vyvanse would or have that intense of withdrawals: OMG ADDICT ALERT AAAAAAA My GPA shot up to 3.98 when I started managing my ADHD-PI with caffeine. I felt like for the first time since early elementary school, my output actually matched my intellectual ability. My dreams are finally happening because the disorder isn't controlling me anymore  except for with the messy apartment thing, which I AM working on.

you know you've had too much caffeine when

you are blasting Pierce the Veil and Three Days Grace and Children of Bodom while drawing and you are FREAKING FIRED UP HOLY HELL  I'd better sleep a lot tonight because tomorrow is going to suck. But this was intentional -- with water park crowds amping up, I knew I wasn't going to get writing and coding done until after dinner, so I had to fight against the exhaustion preemptively.  Pierce the Veil: So Far So Fake Pierce the Veil: King for a Day Pierce the Veil: A Match Into Water Three Days Grace: Animal I Have Become Children of Bodom: Bodom Beach Terror Straight Line Stitch: Dark Matter Children of Bodom: Don't Stop at the Top  Eleine: Death Incarnate  Somebody wake me from this nightmare I can't escape this hell

not happy with smith's boost so far

turns out this store sucks and hardly stocks anything. why do people always rave about it?  - no hillshire farms spicy calabrese salami snack plates. I eat like 4 of those per week.  - no crystal light energy variety pack. I go through 16 packets each week.  - no dole LIGHT pineapple juice, which I drink daily because it saves me 60 calories compared to the normal one.  but at least they have silk vanilla soymilk...? going to the grocery store is a waste of time, yes. but... why did I buy this garbage?  might switch to walmart or target...
