I wanted to say thank you very much for ze tarot widget! It was exactly what I wanted for my site but was too lazy to build ^_^

To answer your question, yes, I did convert to an SSG a couple months ago. Huge pain in the butt and I wish I would have known about them when I started my website. Still, I do really enjoy how much easier it is to make an update.

I can imagine! But the workflow is nicer and more nimble, no? I built my professional website after this one and used Hugo from the outset and love it. My one hangup with this one is the migrating of my posts. I COULD simply paste them in a folder and leave as is, but I'm so tooky that I would inevitably end up attempting to convert 150+ html into md and I think I need some major hyping up to even tackle it >.<

Yes, I definitely don't miss having to update all the navigation myself. No way I'd be converting all my 200+ existing posts to MD though; they can stay HTML for all I care. I am usually picky about these things but not here.

I've noticed myself growing more threatened by the prospect of having my time taken away from me and becoming agitated when it happens. Why does it feel like I have a million things to do? Nobody needs to track so many variables at all times. I suspect this is the true price of "convenience".

That's exactly it! I'm not sure if this is the case for you, but even things I enjoy gives me a haunting sense that I should have done the other thing(s). And then I swear that I can hoard time by streamlining all the things and spend a glorious few hours. But then I get that time and am like oh... I'm too tired because I was optimizing and overthinking it all and spend half that time in choice paralysis >_<

Can't do things because you're overwhelmed. Feel overwhelmed by having too many things to do. Yes, sounds familiar!
