The Current State Of Affairs, Here In APW Land

Hello All-

For whatever reason, just now, washing the dishes I was overcome with the feeling that today was the day to put out my little ‘blanket apology/here is what’s up’ post. Basically, APW is growing. Kind of… faster than I’d expected after the re-launch. That is, in many ways, a huge joy. I love APW, I love you guys, I love all the writing and thinking out loud I get to do here, I love the amazing community discussions, I love the profound guests posts that I have the honor of sharing with the world.

But. I’m still just one girl on one laptop over here, same as I was on day one. And as someone supporting a small household in a rather expensive city while her husband does eminently worthwhile things like study for one of the hardest bars in the US, and figure out what’s next… well… I’m working around the clock. I go to work all day, and then I come home to a overloaded inbox, a million smart comments, posts that need to be written, and lovely sponsors (who make it all possible) that need to be tended too. Not to mention the small pile of APW side projects that I’m really supposed to be working on, but haven’t had time to touch this month.

So. All of this is to say – if I haven’t answered your email, or posted your wedding graduate post…. I’m probably wallowing in guilt about it (even, if you say, emailed me back in January with a really good question about your husband not wanting a wedding ring. See? I read things! I remember!) So PLEASE don’t think that I didn’t think your email was cool enough, or your wedding blog-worthy* enough, and that’s why I didn’t email you back. PLEASE. Because I swear to you, it was awesome. So awesome that I thought, “hum, I need to find a moment where I can think to email them back” (those of you who have gotten emails from me know that I’m incapable of not being chatty), or “hum, I need to find the right week to put this wedding up.”

None of this is to say that you should pity me (God no!). But just know, I adore you and your emails and weddings and comments. It’s just that I’m a better person (and, um, writer) if I also sleep and shower. Yes?

Smooches,

Meg
