Congo Gum

Let me start with my apologies. It has been almost two months since I’ve written anything at all. Anywhere. Life has gotten to that stage at the moment where days seem to be measured in seconds and I have no idea where it all goes. To say I’ve fallen out of the loop wouldn’t be too far off.

The last anime I watched was Kiki’s Delivery Service on channel 4 when it aired over Christmas. The last show I watched was Angelic Layer back in November, and I still haven’t finished that yet. I’m sure there is a smorgasbord of shows that I need to see. After all, I still have shows from 2006 to watch. But at the moment I just cant find the time to sit down for an hour, watch a few shows and then do something else. That’s not to say that I’ve fallen out of love with anime but rather, as time goes on, I have more things to do with less time to do them.

This leads me on to my next few points. 2008 is going to be a big year for my writing. I’ve got another project that I’m working on that, I hope, is going to be a huge success for the Tenchi Community. I’m also going to be making a few changes to this blog.

Style – To be fair, I like this layout. But I buggered around with the kubrick theme in wordpress and I’ve noticed that this page loads like crap. I’m going to ask some of my more theme friendly bloggers to design something better in exchange for beer tokens so that’s one improvement.

Writing – When I first started this blog I was aiming at delving into the deep, artistic beatuties of the anime environments. But as I look at them it turns into more case studies on the ideas of the show, and I’m not sure if I want to do that. I’m not going to drop the idea, but I’m changing my style. Instead of big, long winded posts (which are great and interesting to read, but a pain to write) I’m going to aim for a shorter, better written and more regular postings. Once a week is fine, but ideally I want to update it more with things on my mind.

So I’m still here, I’m still going to be posting. But boy, there are going to be some big changes around here.
