Is This Thing On?
2007.05.17 (Thu) 08:59
As our astute readers have no doubt noticed, we've been awfully quiet lately. Our last post was over a month ago, and we weren't exactly lighting it up in the weeks leading up to that entry, either. We've also been pretty bad about responding to comments and replying to submissions via our contact form. The bottom line is that our daily lives have been way too busy lately to do much of anything. Between all of our members, we have new jobs, new domiciles, new babies, and a mountain of miscellaneous "stuff" — oh, hell, let's call it shit — taking up our time. And frankly, when we do get a little bit of a break, all we want to do is to set the old eyelids on Vaguely Twitch and collapse on the bed, couch, or whatever other surface is handiest — not a very conducive state of mind for Two Percent Company business.
So first things first: our apologies to anyone we haven't gotten back to (a list which, unfortunately, dates back many months). We've received some interesting opinions, some cool links, and some insightful ideas, and we hate the fact that we haven't even been able to acknowledge that we've received them.
Second, we want to make it clear that we aren't done here. Throughout these last few months, we've had more than one conversation about the future of Two Percent, and one thing has been very clear to us — no matter how busy we may be right now, we have no desire to throw in the towel. We'll be back, and we'll be Ranting...
...but it won't be right away. Based on our best guesses, it looks like the first half of June is a reasonable (though not dead certain) target for starting to get back on the Ranting bus. By then, a lot of our personal issues should be coming to a close (or at least becoming more stable and predictable), and we should have a little more free time. Until then, don't expect a lot from us, other than the occasional comment, and maybe a linking post or two. In addition, if the mood strikes us, we may try to re-post a few of our older Rants that some readers may have missed.
Keep in mind that we do check out every new comment that comes in, and we scan every form submission — we really appreciate those of you who've been batting cleanup for us ever since the whole Sylvia Browne explosion at the beginning of the year, and we really get-a-kick-out-of and/or get-our-mad-on-upon-reading (whichever fits) the links that you've sent in. Thanks for your patience, your comments, your submissions, and your ass-kickings of the asshats who leave stupid comments about phony psychics. We hope you'll stick around — we can see light at the end of the tunnel, and we're pretty sure it isn't the Mack Truck of God coming to strike us down. After all, we've seen no evidence that God even has a Mack Truck. Though we all know that won't stop certain folks from buying him some mudflaps depicting silvery naked Jesuses lounging about in stiletto heels. (Photoshop gurus, have some fun. We know we will, once we get some downtime.)
Catch you all soon.
