ALMOST. It’s been not yet 48 hours since we re-launched the site and miraculously, I’m not yet in the foetal position in the corner rocking quietly back and forth. Close but not yet rocking…..
Instead? I am trying hard, so VERY HARD to channel that little Buddha dude right there on the Apple. That is so me. Except not.
It’s been rather an extraordinary experience this New Website Launch Caper. I don’t quite know if I’d recommend you rush out and do it. But one thing that’s been fantastic is having that post about dealing with anxiety on the homepage (you can see it if you scroll or go here). Not only have all the comments been sage in their wisdom and advice, each time I come to the home page these past couple days, I can get a visual hit of Rescue Remedy. Now if only they made it in an industrial size I could shower under.
Now just to REALLY fuck with my remaining brain cells, the commenting system back-end (called Echo) has just been up-graded because that timing could not be more convenient. So YES, I know the comments look different today than they did yesterday and YES, I know you were just getting used to how they looked with the new site AND NOW THEY’RE NEW AGAIN AND AM I TRYING TO MESS WITH YOUR MIND?????? and all I can say is welcome to my world.
I’ve been madly dashing around the front and back ends of the site (which sounds vaguely raunchy but I assure you is not) and reading all your comments on individual posts and also on the Welcome post where so many of you were lovely enough to say kind things. Thank you for those.
