Here's some stuff that happened in the past
In a perhaps unsurprising development, I'm going to be posting Saturday Night Live recaps three times a week from here on out.
I'm sorry. I pour my heart and soul into all my projects. I believe in my ideas. I don't know why.
Then, I'm inevitably devastated when they fail to meet even modest expectations. So, I'm going to slow down here. I love the work, but it's exhausting and depressing trying to make something succeed when the universe seemingly just isn't interested and doesn't care.
Other dreamers have get-rich-quick schemes. I have vow-to-do-an-insane-amount-of-work-for-an-exceedingly-modest-sum-of-money schemes. That would not be the smartest strategy, to begin with, but I never even come close to making the modest sum of money I'm hoping for.
I want to do a good job here, but I can't do that if I'm always exhausted, depressed, broke, and perpetually behind, as I am now.
Apologetically yours,
Nathan
neat, eh? Man, I LOVE this silly newsletter.
LOVE the recaps, and very very into this project. Not sure how much that means, but know that the work is most appreciated - at whatever pace makes sense to you.
FWIW, I am really enjoying these recaps! But you can only do what you can do. I've been wanting to revisit all of the first few years of SNL, but perhaps that's a fool's errand, but you're OUR fool! Take a deep breath, take stock, and don't let it get you down too much.
