Pre-Post Transition Post

This isn't a real post. I'm going to post the real post tomorrow. But it feels like there should be some sort of intermediate thing to prepare everyone for the abrupt change of speed ahead.

Here's a picture of an airplane.


I realize that airplanes don't look like that, but this has been a hard year for me and learning how to draw planes accurately wasn't exactly a priority. I maybe could have chosen to draw something else, but I started drawing the plane, and there was already too much momentum.

Anyway, I feel like this is becoming way more about planes than I had anticipated. Let's move on.

If, at any point over the last eighteen months, you've wondered what was happening to me and why it might be happening, my post tomorrow should explain everything.

I've been working on it for the better part of a year (partly because I wanted to get it exactly right, and partly because I was still experiencing it while attempting to explain it, which made things weird), and I'm relieved and excited and scared to finally be able to post it.

At this point, you're all probably wondering what is it? What's in the post?? Is it airplanes? And no, it unfortunately has very little to do with airplanes.* It's a sort of sequel to my post about depression. It is also about depression. In parts, it might get a little flinch-y and uncomfortable, and if I succeed in making you laugh during those parts, you're going to feel real weird about yourselves. But it's okay. Just let it happen. I WANT it to happen. Because it makes me feel powerful, and also because there are flinch-y, uncomfortable things everywhere. Seeing them is inevitable. If we can laugh about some of them, maybe they'll be less scary to look at.

Okay, so that's what's going to happen tomorrow. Hopefully this transition post makes the experience less jarring for everyone.

*As it turns out, there is a plane. I had forgotten about it (it's small and not the main focus of the post) and the coincidence was entirely unintentional. I'd never tell you there aren't going to be planes while being fully aware that there's a plane.

    I'm so glad to see that you're here!! Depression is an absolute bitch-and-a-quarter. I was just afraid it had gotten someone else that I knew (of)...

    ReplyDelete
  22. Welcome back! And I saw something somewhere about a book...I hope that's true. Can't wait to see what you've been up to - I hope it hasn't been awful.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Here I was sure that you'd been eaten by bears. Or geese. I am at once elated and disappointed.

    ReplyDelete
  24. It is so nice to hear from you again. I hope things are going better for you now.

    ReplyDelete
  25. It's great to see you writing again - I was sad that I only found your work during your hiatus, and thought I'd missed the boat.

    And hey.. life happens. I certainly know how things aren't all rainbows and sunshive. If you're comfortable with sharing, I'll definitely be reading your real post. :)
    Welcome back? (If that's.. even appropriate? I.. I don't know. /social awkwardness at its finest)

    ReplyDelete
  26. I'll ride that plane! As scary as it gets.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm so excited, I have to go pee! I feel completely unprepared for how giddy I am.

  28. Oh, Allie!!! I am so happy to SEE you!!!

    ReplyDelete
  29. YOU'RE ALIVE! YAY!

    ReplyDelete
  30. As someone who can relate to your previous depression post somewhat, I greatly look forward to what's going to be posted tomorrow! Thanks for all the hard work!

    ReplyDelete
  31. And here we discover just how goddamn many of us still use RSS.
    Screw you Google Reader for deserting us.

    ReplyDelete
  36. SO HAPPY to see you updating again, and I wait with baited breath to feel weird for laughing after your next post.

    Seriously, though, I hope things are better for you now, and I'm looking forward to the upcoming book!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Eeeeeeeeee!!!!! I'm so happy to see that you're back! Yay!

  38. OH MY GOD MY FEEDREADER SAID THERE WAS A NEW HYPERBOLE AND A HALF POST AND I THOUGHT IT WAS MALFUNCTIONING AND IT'S NOT AND OMGOMGOMG I MIGHT DIE I'M GOING TO GO GET SOME ICE CREAM AND CELEBRATE AND QUITE POSSIBLY JUST KEEP HITTING REFRESH ON THIS PAGE UNTIL TOMORROW.

    Sorry.

    Psychotic rant over.

    Honestly I do hope you're feeling much better and I'm trying really, really hard not to squeal right now. I'm hoping against hope against hope that your post tomorrow is about how much better you're doing. Depression sucks.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I'm ready to flinch with you.

    ReplyDelete
  40. WELCOME BACK. You were very missed.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  42. ALLIE.

    I have been waiting.

    ALOT OF WAITING.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I'm more than ridiculously happy to have seen this on Twitter, even though you didn't want it to auto update, but that's technology for you. We're just all happy to see you back!

    ReplyDelete
  44. I am so happy you getting back in the game. Your voice (and drawing) is too awesome to be seen and heard.

    ReplyDelete
  45. As someone who also experienced the last 18 months as awful, welcome back. You have no idea how much I missed you. It is great to read you.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Yes, I wondered where you went! Glad I did not unsubscribe.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Wow, that's really weird! After several months of absence (sorry!), just a few days ago I was like "Hey! I wonder what's up with Hyperbole and a Half and Allie?". And just to make sure my RSS reader hadn't missed anything I checked for updates, and even read the Wikipedia article and saw you gave an update on Reddit a while back. :-)

    Anyway, I hope that the update means that you're feeling better!

    ReplyDelete
  48. HOOOORRRRAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  49. I am so happy to see your words in this space!! Glad to read whatever tomorrow's post might bring.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Yay! I'm very happy (like VERY, and like FOR REAL) to see that you're coming back. I hope you'll bring us good news tomorrow.

    I have no idea what it could be but it looks very difficult and important so... Good luck!!!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Yay! Go ahead and flinch me. I dopey-dog dare ya!

    ReplyDelete
  52. That's an awesome airplane.

    ReplyDelete
  53. It's so good to hear from you! I am ready for your post tomorrow and very excited. :)

    ReplyDelete
  54. Hi, you don't know me, but I'm going to hug you now.

    *hugs*

    I hope everything is going okay, and you have NO idea how excited I am to see that you posted again. I genuinely missed your quirky stories and bizarre* sense of humor.

    *That's code-talk for "awesome"

    ReplyDelete
  55. I'm super happy that you are back, at least today, no matter what you reveal tomorrow. We are waiting with you :)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I am so happy to see you posting again! I have missed your wonderful work and hope that you are doing well!

    ReplyDelete
  57. Yay! Good to see you back Allie! Hopefully it will be an action-adventure post about how you defeated depression like St. George slaying the dragon.

    ReplyDelete
  58. I quite literally gasped when you came up on my Twitter feed. I don't even know you and I've been so terribly worried for you. I've been checking your site every month or so, just hoping you'd come back and tell us you were okay.

    It feels weird to say that I can't wait to read about someone's battle with depression, but, well, there you go!

    ReplyDelete
  59. Waiting slightly impatiently but on pins and needles nonetheless :)

    ReplyDelete
  60. Really looking forward to reading your stuff again! How is the book pre-sale going on Amazon?

    ReplyDelete
  61. OMG SO EXCITE!!!!

    As a person who studies rotting humans (Forensic Taphonomy) I am totally in favor of laughing at the flinchy stuff. Neils Bohr once said, "There are some things so serious you have to laugh at them."

    ReplyDelete
  62. You have been missed...so glad you are back.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Hi Allie! We love you! Alot!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I thought about your last post this morning on the train and was hoping that you'd be back and thinking of ways to tell you that you make people happy. But many people have written it better and it might only make a teensy difference when it is already in your mind and you feel worthless. But I am happy you exist.

    ReplyDelete
  65. You are back! So good to hear from you.

    ReplyDelete
  66. So glad to "see" you. So glad I kept you in my feed!

    ReplyDelete
  67. You're back! Huzzah! I am so happy! We were all so worried about you! ♥ I can't wait to see what you post tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I'm just so happy to see you coming back, love.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Good to see something from you! Don't worry about making us flinch. It's the internet, it's full of depression, we know what it's like. Flinchify us.

    ReplyDelete
  70. I was just saying yesterday how I missed your posts and boom! I miss money.....

    ReplyDelete
  71. I google searched you like a stalker because I was worried about someone I'd never met!!

  75. I actually did the same thing and sent an email last month asking how she was because I just genuinely wanted to know.


    +1 to the very excited people to see this post

    I'm tired now. Welcome back.

    ReplyDelete
  78. AHHHHHHHHHHH.

    I am so glad I randomly decided to check up on your blog for the first time in months.

    Well, not totally randomly.

    I was looking for a specific picture from one of your stories to post in conjunction with my status on Facebook, which led me to a recent article about your book, which led me to Reddit (does not everything lead to Reddit?), where someone had linked to your blog in a comment and I decided to relive some of the most hilarious content I have ever experienced, only to find THIS!

    Which is a far better outcome than anything I could have possibly anticipated from my finals-week internet procrastination.

    Thank the internet gods. Glad you are back, looking forward to your post even if it is a bit flinch-y at times.

    ReplyDelete
  79. I got so excited I actually screamed! I've been rereading the old posts SO MUCH in the past year. I can't wait!!!

    ReplyDelete
  80. Wheeee! I'm so excited you're back.

    ReplyDelete
  81. YAY!!! You rock, Allie!!! SO happy to hear you are doing even a little bit better. You have been very missed, and we are all here rooting you on!!! You have so many people who think you are great!

  89. I didn't believe it when I first saw this pop up in my Google Reader (which also reminds me, I need to find a new blog reader, oy).

    I am SO SO SO happy to see a post from you. Not just because of how much I enjoy your pictures and stories, but because I have been thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. I've even searched the interwebs a number of times to see if anyone has posted any sort of interaction they've had with you, but hadn't seen anything since your Reddit thread.

    Anyway, this is long and I'm sure there will be many other comments saying similar sentiments in a better way, but you were missed and your return is celebrated.

  93. I'm really excited that you've started writing again, and hoping that you've been able to work through everything from the last post. It's really great "hearing" from you again. Kept checking your page, hoping to see something new, and now that it is and there will be, I'm really excited. Just remember, you can get through anything.

  97. thanks for the pre-post thing. and the plane. which looks like what a shark would want to look like if it wanted to appear, you know, friendlier.

    laughing while flinching is a very important life skill, so I'm looking forward to tomorrow's opportunity to practice. in your company. welcome back.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  116. Your first post helped me explain to my loved ones what I was going through and made me feel so, so much less alone during my own depression. I still don't see a light at the end of the tunnel most days but having you back does make my heart happy.

    ReplyDelete
  117. Welcome back! There can never be too much fan mail. We have all missed you but are so giddily delighted in your return we don't care :)

  127. Hey Allie,

    I'm so glad you're writing again, we've all missed you something awful. I also hear the book is coming out soon(ish?), and this makes me happy too. I hope you're feeling less depressed these days, I know how tough that can be to go through.

  165. You have been desperately missed! So happy you're back and so excited about your post tomorrow. You are able to explain my own depression (even to me!) so much more eloquently and jauntily than I ever could. Thank you, and welcome back!

  171. Whew!! You are living and breathing. Sorry you went through hell...hopefully you are on the rise. Even scary, flinchy things can be funny...and I think you are right...laughing at them makes them, even ever so slightly, less scary/flinchy. Maybe it helps links us as humans...you know the whole human experience thing. Awesome you are the link for humanity...

    Hugs

  175. Glad to hear you're feeling better or least the book people are making you fake it. If you are faking, it might help.
