This isn't real

I'm in the Union computer lab right now about to start writing a thrilling essay about formulation, implementation and evaluation of the No Child Left Behind policy. Sick. But I just wanted to give a shout out to my avid readers (does that phrase make sense?) to tell you to not worry because a good tate blog will come soon enough. I'll even write multiple times on this thansving break probably. So check back soon I love you.

Things to look forward to about going to Kirkwood:
-Mel and Gar
-Watching movies on our huge sweet TV
-My fat dogs
-The rest of my family--including my g-parents and my famous cousin that broadcasts for the Reds
-Watching K-Wood dominate on Webster in the Turkey Day game at home
-The Poshaks
-My married friends
-All my other friends
-Eating turkey and mashed potatoes
-Ted Drewes

Ok the list goes on but I gotta write my paper now. Hasta luego.

the story of the tateblog

In the spring semester of 2005 at KU, I took an online journalism class. Our job in the class was to manage, publish and create the University Daily Kansan web site in only its first or second semester of existence. One of the requirements was that we write in a blog twice a week about what we were learning and accomplishing in class. In its early stages, the tateblog gained attention from original fans Justin Hume and Emily Ashcraft, who for some reason enjoyed reading about my experiences.

After the class was over, I thought tateblog would die. But the fans demanded more. Tateblog started up again in September 2005. From there it grew into quite a phenomenon, until after a year or so tateblogs became less consistent (and arguably less exciting). I even almost decided to call it quits at one point, but I just can't do it. Tateblog must live on.

My life is in a pretty different place nowadays. After taking a two year break from blogging, most likely because in the midst of seminary I had no desire to write anything else, I think I might come back to my old blogging roots. Maybe not so much about weird stuff my friends do, but probably just some thoughts I have on life. So, read it if you like it!
