It was clunky and silly -- small pieces of images of giant angry tomatoes behind me mixed with feeling a desire to growl and yell. I made little rumbles but was too shy to go all out. I held the game in my mind for most of the run, and found a full on joyful sprint for a mile of the descent. A major theme of why I chose my goal for the next 100 days: where am I meant to play, and replace my default of taking everything so seriously and rigidlylyly? - Smai Lo hice en friega en la noche, incluso desde mi celular lool.
