But I'll be making a newspost tonight, and I'll try to get back onto a daily schedule from then on. The daily updates aren't dead. I'm just wondering whether it would matter if they were.
I concur with Alexia's post (thanks Alexia!) and also PHJ's. 5MV matters to all of us -- it's the only site I visit other than the Onion that makes me laugh -- and more importantly you matter to us. Not because we want stuff from you but because we're grateful for everything you've already given us. Not only have you created laughter in the world, but you've inspired a lot of other people to do the same in emulation. Plus we've gotten to know you in a very e-Universe sort of way and I don't think there's a single person who's a part of the 5MV world who would not agree that you're good people.

I've been a one-man web-site before, and I've been daunted by how onerous it is and how people seem to want stuff from you all the time. But then you look back on how much came from the mustard seed of creating a little web site long ago, and you just sit back in amazement that you had anything to do with it at all.

Ask for help if you need it, take a break if you need it. Take a deep breath. Make some hot chocolate and talk to a dog for a while. That always works for me.
