Q&A Post

I haven’t had a Q and A post in a while and I’ve honestly had about 100 Q&A questions…well not 100 because I don’t have that many friends but like 10.

1.       How many calories of cream do you add in your coffee?

I honestly don’t know.  Probably about ½ cup and that isn’t a joke.  So maybe 100-200 per 24 ounces?  There are some things in my life that are worth it.  Being lethargic after cream of coffee is one of them.

2.       Do people think you are as funny in real life as on your blog?

Um, well I think so.  I’m not anyone different on my blog then in real life…I really don’t try and hide anything from anyone in “real life” or become a different person online.  Many real life friends (shoutout to you guys…comment away if you want) have found my blog and I love it.

3.       You mentioned you suffer from social anxiety…what do you mean by that?

Though this isn’t something that comes up a lot but I do not like to be around a lot of people at once.  I have had panic attacks (not in the last couple of years) from being in extremely crowded places.  I can’t control them and it’s obviously not every time or even half the time.  I know when one is building and I just remove myself from the situation so it becomes not a big deal.

Think of social chlaustrophia.  Very crowded places for too long or being around a group of people for several hours can trigger them.  It doesn’t really hinder me from living life-however I will say during the start of a few road races, I have felt really panicky.  (Another reason I enjoy smaller races).

4.       When do you think you’ll start biking and doing Triathalons?

IF I start biking, it will be after I have expelled all my energy to running and have grown tired of it.

5.       Dogs or Cats?

I’m not a dog person.  At all.  I just don’t care for dogs and when I’m on my own I will not be getting one.  (I guess unless my future husband wants one…granted I find a future husband) but enough rambles I like cats.

and this is my cat.

6.       Will you add more photos on your blog posts?

Sure.  I just haven’t really had any relevant ones.  I have a fancy camera, but it’s big and I hate to lug it everywhere.  I think I’ll start taking more photos of my iphone and adding them to posts.  I know wordy posts are boring.

Here is a photo of me and beans. I won said can of beans in game of BINGO in nutrition class.

7.       Will you do more of your life posts, you seem to have an exciting life and I would love to hear about day to day musings.

Yes, I can do that. I really don’t have that thrilling of a life (I promise).  It’s mostly just laced with sarcasm.  I have literally just been working, driving, running and sleeping.  I’ll get on my real life posts.

8.       Why don’t you work during the school year?

I work my booty off during the summer so I didn’t have to work during the school year.  As much as you probably don’t believe me, I’m pretty good at sticking to my budget.  I buy a lot of specialty food online then just buy the rest at the grocery store. I have a pretty strict budget with clothing and stuff,  I just choose to explode your tweet feed when I do decide to go shopping.  I was a full time student and with being a varsity athlete as well, if I threw a job on there it would be instafail.  Don’t get me wrong, my parents helped me out as during college but I did not rely on them like in high school.

9.       Would you ever pace someone in a race?

Yes.  I pace my younger kids in their road races but I would pace someone older too.

10.   Do you still eat a high protein diet?  I haven’t seen any posts about it in the last few weeks?

Yes, my apologies.  I’ve been busy with work and life and everything to write up so more decent posts.

I still enjoy my steak.

As always you can ask me a question on formspring, email or comment and ask…. 

Question for you:  Tell me something random about yourself.
