Hey everyone! Nothing too much too worry about, despite the title of the post. I just wanted to drop a note letting everyone know the release of A Very Confused Pokémon Adventure will likely be a day or two later than usual. In this case, it's a combination of 'oops, I thought that would take longer' and unexpected minor life complications.

The first bit is that, to my surprise, it only took like 5,000 words to get through the rest of Viridian Forest. I struggled more with it than expected, and what I finally settled on worked out, but didn't take nearly as much word count as expected. Since I didn't have Pewter fully outlined, I had to stop and assess exactly what I wanted them to do in the lead up to the Gym Challenge. I've gotten that sorted and put in another 2,500 words or so already, with a at least as much again likely to be done today. But that will still only put me at 2/3rds. I'll likely need most of tomorrow, which would normally have been the release day, to finish up the writing.

The other half is honestly more good news than bad. I've been having trouble with my eyes for the last year or so. My prescription is pretty insane, like coke-battle thick glasses even when I buy ultra-thin lenses. It's reached the point that I'm seriously looking into LASIK or PRK for vision correction...and was very surprised that the place my eye doctor recommended me to could get me in on literally a day's notice. Meaning that I have an appointment with them for consultation in like, an hour. Which is going to take a 3 hour bite out of my day.

Anyway, I'm not expecting it to be more than a day or two later than normal, but I did want to drop an explanation and warning while I had a chance! That's all for now!

Congrats, need to look into LASIK myself

Nice. I have done LASIK myself. Surgery is literally 3 to 4 seconds. Takes about 2 weeks to get back to normal afterwards.

All good, take care of yourself first and foremost, and then worry about everything else.

I’ll be honest. I expected you’d have to go with two out of the options in the poll, at least, so can’t say im surprised. Anyway good luck on your laser

I knew I would have to do at least SOME content in Pewter, I was just expecting it to be like, a third of the word count, not 2/3rds. As for the laser consultation, sadly they said it won't work for me T-T.

T-T. Sadly, they said I'm not a candidate for it. My eyes are too bad and cornea thickness to little to fix such an extreme. Not even PRK will work, apparently. So I'm sort of stuck now.

Sadly, they said it won't work for me. Guess I should have tried it 10 years ago when my vision was a bit better T-T.

Eh wearing glasses is not the end of the world. I’m 85% blind and getting worse bit by bit so you know, it could be worse.

It isn't, no. I've had glasses since I was 6 years old. It's just that my eyes have gotten so bad that they can't quite correct them fully with glasses or contacts. In particular, I'm getting constant artifacts off monitors. Letters on a screen have a sorts of blurry shadow under them which causes eye strain the longer I deal with it. Which is, you know, kinda a problem when I spend most of my working hours either writing or programming on a computer screen.
