It’s fun when you learn something new about yourself.  Something like, “Hey, I do like dog food.”  Or “I always tap my toothbrush on the sink five times to get the water off of it (and it’s to the cadence of ‘Shave and a Haircut’).”

My self-epiphany is that I tinker.  Or rather that I tinker overmuch.  I am incessantly revising and altering everything I do to the point that it’s never finished and often results in some kind of disaster.  For blaring example, I recently tried to install WordPress on the King Sheep server over at Gate.com (our host), and I fear that this maneuver promptly dumped all of the comic archives from the SQL database.

My tinkering has screwed me, and hence the epiphany.  So the comics will be unavailable for a little while, but not to fret.  Sometimes we have to take these steps backwards in order to take a giant leap forward.

As Thoreau said, “Simplify, simplify, simplify.”  Just a little more tinkering and I’ll be good, so bring your hard hats.
