Before I get into the "details" of this former "monthly greetings entry", let me apologize for the somewhat lengthy blog entry title, but it is for a good reason. There are three things that I want to quickly announce as we start this all new month, and rest assured, this is all the real deal; no "April Fools" jokes here!

First and foremost, we have now entered into our "second quarter" of the 2021 year which means we're inching closer to when we have to gear up for the "summer months period" which usually occurs when we hit the month of June (which is also the month which sees the game release of Mario Golf: Super Rush hit store shelves for the Nintendo Switch console). But could there be some surprises waiting in store for us between now and the latter part of June to conclude this current quarter? We'll just have to wait and see.

Second, as I'm writing this monthly greetings entry, I am still getting materials together to finally write up that formal "11th anniversary statement itself". Only that it's now hit a snag and is slightly delayed because work outside of these operations has contacted me and are in need of my services for this coming Friday and the weekend itself (which just happens to be the Easter weekend as well). Hopefully during the course of next week, I can see about making more progress on the statement; I already have in mind what is planned to be addressed. Thanks to you all in advance for your patience regarding this angle.

And last, but not least, I would like to draw your attention to this image below:


The calendar image itself is from the Super Mario 2021 Wall Calendar (from Abrams Books) which I ordered online late last year. Before leaving my house to take care of business earlier today and switching my wall calendars to this brand new month of April, I just had to take a picture of the above image to share with you here. As some of you all know, I'm a huge fan of the Mario female characters as well and two are featured in this month (which just happen to be Princess Peach and Toadette, alongside Toad, of course). To this day, the Mario female characters have always been my biggest motivators in anything Mario fan project related for all these years... and that brings me to the third part of this formal "monthly greetings entry". I'm still slowly getting back in the groove of clearing my music arrangement target backlog as I write this, so when turning the wall calendar page for this month of April and seeing the two featured Mario girls there, I knew in my conscience we've got some very good stuff coming to share with you in the weeks to come. Details are still under lock and key, with the exception of this one clue that at least one upcoming music arrangement target might have Peach... or Toadette... or both involved! Maybe others might join the two? God only knows. In any case, you won't want to miss it when said music arrangement file postings hit and when they do, I'll obviously let you all know here.

Until then, everyone, I've got to end this here and head on out for the night. All of you have a fantastic month of April and definitely be on guard and look out for all those "April Fools pranks" around the 'net. Stay safe, friends; I'm gone for now.
