Broken laptop means I'll be out of action for a while (UPDATED)


UPDATE: Although still prone to lapses in general functioning, my laptop seems to be working well enough for now that I can start writing again. Since I'll need today to catch up on everything I've missed, the Archer and Breaking Bad reviews will be going up tomorrow. With full computer reliability still not guaranteed, there may yet be days when I'm unable to post, but from tomorrow I'll be aiming to resume normal service.

Unfortunately my laptop decided to short-circuit this afternoon, which means it's unlikely I'll be able to do any updates (here or at Flixist) until repairs are completed - and not being much of a techie, I have no idea how long that will be. It looks pretty likely to because of a loose power jack, if that provides any frame of reference.

Obviously it's a blow, especially this early in the blog's lifespan, but hopefully it'll be resolved sooner rather than later. In the meantime, I'd like to take the chance to thank everyone who has visited, commented and supported the blog so far. It has been bringing in numbers that are far above what I could have expected at this stage, which has forced me to stay on my toes, keep working hard and coming up with new ideas to hold onto your valuable 'net time. I've got a lot of ideas on how to improve the blog over the summer, so rest assured that it will only be coming back stronger after these setbacks. Please leave a comment here if you have any suggestions for improvements you'd like to see.

Many, many thanks for all your support, and hopefully I'll be seeing you again soon!
