Once More, With Feeling

So, my last attempt to kick the blog back into shape was an impressive failure for some very obvious reasons.  The first was that I was still pretty much depressed (though to be fair, I still am, but I've found a new way to manage it) and the second, biggest and glaring reason was that I thought a setup wherein I try to cover, what, two months-worth of posts in about two weeks? was a good idea.

It was not a good idea.  It was a very bad idea.  I do not recommend it.

I very quickly became paralyzed with the enormity of the task, as I literally invited onto myself the sensation of drowning in work, responsibility and obligation and it just killed all my ability to actually just sit down and write anything as a post.  My lack of attention span and focus didn't help either, but that's more of a secondary thing than anything.  As a result, as you can tell, my ability to write anything shot right to hell, scuttled my confidence and set me back another month, which, when you already have those feelings described before, it just starts to feel cumulative.

There has to be a point where it ends, though, and that's tonight.  And if you would believe it, Octodad: Dadliest Catch had a hand tentacle hand in helping me with that.

So we're going to go with a far more sensible plan.  I'm going to get back into things, trying to post every night, and dealing with the big gap in content when I can.  Some posts are going to be written as if on that date, since I have a lot of posts -started-, but other posts are going to be written explicitly 'from the fuuuuutuuuuuureeeee' and just post-dated to an appropriate date.  It feels like 'cheating' and I suppose that's because it is, but oh well.  I just want to write, and that's what I'm going to do.  These posts will all be funneled through the Comeback Tour Hub as before, which I'm going to make a widget for in the upper right corner of the blog.  Probably just titled what it is and then listing the latest update date so you know when there's new stuff to pick up and look at.  It's going to be purely when I can manage it, though.

Things will start up tomorrow with a piece on Octodad of some sort.  Not quite sure -what-, but it's going to happen.  Nobody will suspect it.

okay seriously this time, it's all good dudes

The Kupowered Come-Back Tour!

So, I've been gone and that sucks and I've been working on coming back.  Easiest way to prove that, however, is...by coming back.  So that's what I'm doing!  I'm going to use this post as a sort of Mega-Post (since all my posts that are going to fill in the gap will come before this one, meaning it'll be at the top of the list) to keep an update log of what posts go up and when until I'm fully caught up.  As such, just check back every other day or so to see if there's been another Wave posted and read at your leisure!  I think it's a good idea, at least, and it'll help you, the faithful reader, keep up as I work through this silly process.

Remember that I'm going to be posting these updates in waves so I can -actually- catch up, but I will be spacing them out a day or so in an attempt to keep from triggering spam flags or anything of the sort.  Because that wouldn't do, to come back and have to deal with that sort of nonsense.

Anyway, thank you for your patience and for sticking around - hopefully when I get back on track for real, you'll still be around as well.
