Summary
Today was certainly a lot more intense than the usual "off day"! Unlike in previous months, this month I didn't finish the update video until 9am (i.e., working through the morning ). But making the darn thing was just the beginning....uploading literally took from 9 am to 2 pm, and used up 4 out of my 5 cellular GBs. Luckily I managed to steal a few hours of sleep while this thing was draining my data, and woke up to finish writing the update text / taking the screenshots.
But of course, that was only the beginning, because after I had already released the update and notified all 5,449 backers that a new video was out, a YouTuber was kind enough to point out that the last three minutes had no audio. Cool. So that first upload consumed 5 hours, virtually the entire data plan, and was completely useless. Nice!!! Obviously cell is not the correct way to upload massive files. Now I know. I drove over to some family members' house to use their high-speed internet and, after another 4 hours of uploading, arrived at the second version.
So yeah, it wasn't really as relaxing of a day as I hoped for, but that's ok...in the end, I'm really happy with the update video / March in general, and I hope April will live up to the same standards
Now then, since everything is finally over, I fully intend to take my rightful "night off," and I fully intend to spend my night off in a deep sleep. Wish me luck.
