Well, that's officially one more year of blogging under our belts. Amazing, too--a new post every day at 11 AM, like clockwork, except when Alex forgot it was his turn to post. Or when I forgot it was my turn to post and begged him at 10:59 to fill in for me.
December was a month of comfort posting--familiar topics we could easily write about, long-running traditions we'd been planning for, and personal stories requiring relatively little effort to convey. Enjoy a look back at this past month:
- A recap of my contributions to videogame humor website GameCola.net in November and December 2011
- A link post regarding the worthwhile and occasionally humorous Fan/Pro Bill of Rights
- An explanation of how I went seven months without a weekend to myself
- Preparations and delays for our annual Gifts for Geeks feature, which covers surprise gifts, gift cards, nightmare shopping, gifts for geekettes, and assorted specific recommendations
- Thoughtful questioning about the relationship between creators and their politics
- Volume 3, Issues 49-52 of Alex's weekly sanity check-in with a comics news endcap, Waiting for Wednesday, covering Hellblazer Annual, holiday plans, change of employment (which is described in further detail in a follow-up post) and musings on over three years of blogging
- A reflection on the anniversary of the death of John Lennon
- An unexpected radio ad for a movie from the 1990s
- The Third Easiest Contest on the Internet
- Encouraging sales figures for the comics industry
- A celebration of the completion of my first bonus video for Mega Man 6
- A link post regarding Alex's ideal comics shop, and a story about what might just be Nathaniel's ideal everything shop
- A scattershot status update complete with geeky Christmas tree picture
- A butchering of Good King Wenceslas for the sake of roleplaying humor
- Thoughts on holiday traditions
- An introduction to Dragon Warrior, the sword-and-sorcery NES RPG series
- An epic announcement of this year's Great Comic Book Adventure
