NEWS UPDATE: News Straight Outta SHITVILLE

Hello, remaining readers!  Here we are again, doing updates at your favorite educational internet entertainment website.  Well, here we are RIGHT NOW doing them!  We wanted to let you know that we didn’t forget about you, and we didn’t just get way way lazy again and forget or not care to write because we were being disobedient to Kevin.  No, we have a much unlikelier excuse this time.

We all got simultaneously, hideously, IRL busy.

That’s right, we writers actually had real life intrude upon our normally-ample leisure time and it was the PITS, readers, it was the PITS.   And we never want it to happen again.  Frown frown frown.

So What Did We Do?

Billy works at a hospital and somehow was scheduled to work two thousand hours every week.  And while it is comforting to us as potential hospital-goers to know that hospital staff are all overworked and underslept, and it was for certain comforting to Billy’s bank account, it just did no good at all for site content here.  The good news is that the hospital recently hired new workers and he has been cut back to only a hundred hours per week, meaning that he can start (and has already started) writing articles again.  Oh, also in addition to all of the work, he also had to move which is a time eater, always.

I (Amanda) have been inundated with more work in one month than I have ever had to do in thirty years – COMBINED.  Three hundred full-color textbook illustrations in five weeks?  Never again.  There will probably be an article all about it as soon as I come out of my Post-Work Reward Bender because I have a build up of melodrama concerning the activities, but to summarize – I have been drawing and painting for about 15 hours every day since the end of March AND STILL AM (why am I taking time to write this news report?).  My hand and wrist almost exploded but survived somehow, and also I haven’t cried yet but I think it is because I probably died inside and can no longer feel real emotions.  Oh also I took a road trip to Nashville which probably was ill-advised considering all the work I needed to do.  No regrets today, but ask again tomorrow.

Jeremy got a new job, a real job.  This is astonishing.  And Jeremy P is like eating crabs or something, but seems to actually be other kinds of busy too.  The point is that 3 or maybe 4 out of 4 of us miss writing and really want to get back into it.  NO PROMISES THOUGH I GUESS I think we all learned lessons long ago about PROMISING anything.

Here is a thing I drew, you can look at it as a reward. It is an octocorn.

Additional News from SHIT CITY and SHITOPOLIS

Billy Holiday says, “The news is WE DON’T HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR ANYTHING.  Those bastards can hit F5 all day, but there ain’t gonna be anything new till WE say so!”

What a charmer.
