Friends, I apologize for the light blogging lately. I know, according to my stats package, that there’s been somebody from Tanzania who’s been hitting the refresh button like mad. Dear friend in Tanzania, please grant me grace. School’s been insane, work’s been even worse than school, and my thesis (which somehow seems to surpass the school category due to its sheer magnitude) is turning into a black hole of time.

Not to whine about all of this. But dammit, I’m whining.

But, just to let you know, I am working on a few things for this place. First, I’m trying to write a journalistic piece. Probably, I won’t post that here, but you might get some behind the scenes looks at Brandon, the journalist. We’ll see.

Also, and somewhat related to this whole journalistic escapade I’m embarking upon, I’m thinking of doing a whole other series on Christian t-shirts. Frankly, I’m finding the community here to be a tad “fundy-less” and I think that’s sad, for obvious reasons. I mean, what’s a blog without flames, right?

So, that’s a minor recap of what’s in the works, stay tuned.

    Well I haven’t noticed because I just started reading a little over a week ago, but you did inspire me to start keeping my own log of my thoughts on spiritual life and taking a more serious and direct approach on my inner-workings, so thanks for that.

    Best of luck in the weeks ahead.

    by the way I noticed you talk about reformed church, which makes sense if you’re from west michigan. i grew up in a reformed church in flint who’s sister church is in holland, part of the RCA synod. i found out my aunt was named christian educator of the year a couple weeks ago.

    anyway, i just thought it was a neat little factoid, our similarity…

    I’m a fundie. Want some flames?

    Seriously, I’m also a professional journalist. If you need any pointers, drop me a line.
