What happened here?

...So I guess I owe you an explanation.

You can see that at the start of things, I was posting every day... then things dwindled... then I sort of got back into it, and now... I'm hardly ever posting.

The reason for this is that for a while, my blog was my primary project. I was willing to devote the time to putting in a lengthy post every day
Right now, I'm working on a ton of random stuff (I've been working on a game of my own, and some Egoboo stuff here and there).
It's not that I couldn't take time out of my day to post something, it's just that it wouldn't be interesting. I'm keeping my mind occupied, and I constantly have these ideas bouncing around in there for all of the different projects I'm working on. So there's not much room for dwelling on strange inconsistencies or annoyances that will eventually become the basis for a blog rant.

The point, then, is this:

My projects tend to run in "phases." You'll recall that at one point I was in a serious Egoboo "phase", and apparently I was into a pretty good game building phase at one point, as most of the games I have on YYG right now were posted in fairly quick succession. And as I already said, I was in a blog phase once, too. And I've been in ficiton-writing phases a couple of times.
Right now I'm in a "miscellaneous phase." I really don't know if I could say one thing is my "big project" right now... maybe I could, but that may not necessarily be true for very long.

Don't misinterpret this post. I don't mean that I'm putting my blog on hold, because it's not that I'm not trying. I've had an insightful post going for a while, and I've added bits and pieces to it now and then. I'll post it later on if it gets finished.
But right now, I'm just too serious about too many things to put much thought or effort into blogging.
Like I said, there's Egoboo. I want to start working seriously on the manual for that (in case I haven't mentioned it here, I'm rewriting the whole thing from scratch in order to make massive improvements).
Then there's my own game with the purple jelly. I'm determined to finish this one, so I want to keep working on it, even if progress is really slow (right now, it has been).
Then there's some other miscellaneous things that I don't feel like going into in detail right now, mostly because I can't remember what they are. =D
Plus, it's getting to be crunch time for the ACT; I'm taking that on the twenty-fifth.

Then I've been afflicted by an enormous distraction that manages to remove my focus from any task I try to perform. I know there are a lot of things that are contributing to this, but when I examine it, there's one portion that is much larger than any of the others.
I refuse to complain about it. That's childish and it accomplishes nothing (which, naturally, is why I only complain about things that are stupid, things that I know I cannot change, or stupid things I can't change).
I will, however, tell you (though I'm not going to go into the details) what I'm talking about. I remember one time I said "I won't be doing as many blog posts lately because I don't feel up to it and I don't want to tell you why" and that was stupid.
It's difficult to summarize a huge problem like this, but for what it's worth, here it is:
Our youth group is messed up, broken, and falling apart. Yes, you guys (if you're reading this, which is possible, though I think it unlikely), it is.
It really needs to be fixed, but it can't be if people refuse to fix it.
If something doesn't happen, things are going to get extremely miserable.
And they're not very pleasant as it is.



...That, then, is my explanation.
I hope to do more blog posts in the future, when I get more motivated. By "the future" I mean "it will be very strange if it gets to be a month or two from now and I have only posted two or three times after this."
So don't worry about it! I didn't say I wasn't posting at all, I said just not as often. And these "phases" I speak of are usually fairly short.
