I would use all caps if it wasn't rude in the extreme, but seriously, never use dates unless you're willing to figuratively swear on a Bible in the Supreme Court. Never ever ever. We understand Real Life, we understand Things Coming Up, but I don't understand a webmaster of your caliber still falling prey to faux pas like this. It's beneath you. Just don't say "I'll post on day X," then get all mad when day X arrives, nothing is posted, and we feel betrayed. Just reassure us that you are still here. That's all we want. There are untold websites that I've been to that haven't been updated in years, and the News area still acts like updates are occurring when they aren't and never will happen again.

Oh and please stop it with the "probably" day X's too. It raises our hopes just as much as if the "probably" wasn't there.
Well of course we get annoyed! Posting on day X means we have to flick back to the foreword.

Stupid foreword.
