OK, here it is, and I'm quite proud of it. Under 1,200 words and has only four embeds:

The Year That Wasn't The Year Of HyunA Screaming At A Chicken



Was a long journey getting there. First, when I was ready to post, I kept getting error messages from Tumblr. Then I posted and everything was hunky-dory until the post got deleted. Dave was able to retrieve the post (and I had the draft saved anyway, though Dave didn't know this) and so he himself re-posted it. But now when it was on people's Tumblr dashboards it was credited to "cureforbedbugs" rather than "koganbot." So Dave arranged things so that I could delete it and repost it again as koganbot's rather than cureforbedbug's. But Tumblr went back to its error-message ways, and when it wasn't tossing me errors it threw another whammy at me by not giving me access to the Rock Critic Roundtable from my dashboard. So I still couldn't do anything. Then Dave sent me a new invite, and this got me to the Rock Critic Roundtable dashboard, which maybe I could have gotten to all along but I didn't know this, and I still can't get there from my regular dashboard as I could before but that's no matter, I suppose. Anyhow, I deleted the old and posted the new, fixing a couple of typos along the way. It still doesn't say "koganbot" on top but it doesn't say "cureforbedbugs" either, or maybe it simply doesn't tell me that it's by koganbot because it assumes I know. I doubt that Tumblr is that clever, but you can never tell. I hate computers.

So, the fact that Dave's comment on my post now precedes the post itself is not due to text traveling faster than the speed of light.

[EDIT: Dave kindly re-blogged, and someone else clicked "like," and with those two notes atop the post on the dashboard, the name "koganbot" shines forth clearly. I still hate computers.]
