Hey, didn't ya have a post up?

Why yes, observant reader of my blog, I did!

As time goes on, I will talk about it more. Right now, things are at a weird place and I really need to make sure before I proceed further. This is not the time for me to go into detail. I do promise a somewhat good explanation down the road.

But I will assure you, dear readers, that my family and I are well. There has been no deaths or anything tragic and serious, just a really strange wrench got thrown into the gears. I promise you all that.

Until then, here, have this:

Though I think you're a good-looking dude, Mr. Gaffigan. :D

Glad to be back!

Sorry for the long silence, folks. I had an Internet issue, which took days to fix. The modem wasn't working, giving me DNS look-up errors and other sorts of frustrations. The funny thing is, I thought my computer had been hacked. But nope, it was something just as bad!

It's good to be back here. Not sure about what to do now, but I'll think of something.

Stay tuned as always!

What's with this nonsense?

I don't know if y'all are having this problem, but for some strange reason, certain parts of my posts will have a white background, like I highlighted it. It has happened here and over on Jupiter_Nova. I apologize for not spotting those errors earlier (if you've seen them at my blogs).

But this has happened too many times for it be a strange-ass error on my part. So I ask you, the programmers of this fine blogging establishment... if there is anything you can do on your end to fix this problem, it would be greatly appreciated.

I had a nice, silly post ready to go...

And Blogger ate it up. I managed to save it, after searching for a solution for about twenty minutes. It's too much work to fix the post at this time, so I will fix it all in good time. Probably not this week, due to my friend's wedding this weekend.

Either way, I'll just move on and work on some reviews for my other blog. Check soon for the inaugural Jupiter_Nova review!

Small update

Hello everyone, it's your favorite unpopular blogger coming to you from a computer I'm borrowing at the moment. So far, I've only updated some things on my Tumblr and Facebook, but nothing here. I'm happy to report on the swift moving of Part 2 of Invisible. I'm also planning to submit poetry very soon to various magazines, so I'll update you on that.

As for the Murakami challenge, since the moderator welcomed me so kindly (hi tanabata!), I've finished Sputnik Sweetheart and will not begin on after the quake, but Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World instead. I read somewhere that it's a book to read if you liked Inception. Hey, I liked Inception! So why not? And yes, I will do a review. In fact, for those in the challenge, I plan reviews of Hard-Boiled and 1Q84. So there you go!

I'm gonna sign off for now. Bye!

Okay, here's the situation...

Yep, the repair guy confirmed it was a dying hard drive. Thank God I saved everything I did. Don't worry, Invisible and Blues and everything else I've talked about are perfectly safe. I'm happy to report that. According to the repair guy, I won't expect my beloved laptop to return until early February. Until then, I'm using an older personal computer (in which the Internet is about as slow as a snail on tundra). So obviously, I won't be on the Internet as much as before. I hope to do some major reading and writing in the meantime during this 'Net downtime.

Until then, I will try to make some appearances, but I'm not promising anything. Take care and see y'all next month.

Whoops, we borked...

Y'all, I'm having some computer issues: overheating, clicking noises from hard drive (?), and battery problems. My updates will be intermittent until I get the problems taken care of (see: getting computer sent off and fixed).

BTW, if it is true my hard drive is clicking, I'm gonna thank God I saved everything when I did. 'Cause it meant it was dying.

Yikes.

Apologies all around, we'll be back soon to our scheduled programming...
