So... about this blog...

I have been extremely and wholly negligent of this blog, and for those who actually follow this thing, I apologize. At least I haven't been loading you down with drama about my life (which there is very little drama in my life right now which is good), or telling you about the sandwich I had for lunch, or all the other mundane pointless drivel I could be writing in here or be posting here.

I've got a lot on my plate, and I'm young. I haven't gotten to the point where I am wise enough or diligent enough to be able to do large scale, post every day, blog projects, although I would like to.

I might delete this blog. There are a number of reasons why.

1. The name. The name was supposed to be a comic undertaking, where I made a bunch of comics about screaming fruit, because the concept of fruit screaming all the time amused me a lot at the time I created this. Now the blog has very little cartoons in it, if any at all, and so the name is just a strange non-applicable inside joke that everyone asks about. "Why is it Upset Fruit Bowl?" "What does Upset Fruit Bowl mean?" It's a question I would rather soon stop answering.

2. The content. I've got some new design stuff up that I am rather proud of, but I would like to make this a running portfolio or sketch book. The older stuff looks juvenile (because it is) and I'd like to get rid of most of it.

3. The viewers. I doubt I have any left, but if there are any here, I feel enormous pressure to make these incredible designs or entertaining drawings. I think if I made a site that was "Dallas Dingman Designs" people would be less dissatisfied when they went there because that is all they would find.

So those are just my thoughts, and in a while I might execute them or do something else with this blog. Who knows. My GSA blog kinda fell by the wayside, and that was mostly my fault for posting a really really angry and mean spirited article that I wrote myself about a Trans individual who basically ruined my night by testing my patience with a drunken phone call.

I just need to make something professional and do some re-branding I think. I will probably make a decision at the end of the week.

Thank you for your time and viewership.
