Completely missed the point

Posted on December 19, 2005December 30, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

So, the kids weren’t feeling well most the weekend, which tends toward a long and tiring (and whiny) time. Overall it wasn’t bad, especially being able to get out and see a great show by a band we know so well that its like home. We also got to spend some time getting to know…

Over the Rhine at the Taft

Posted on December 18, 2005January 22, 2020 by Paul Armstrong

We went to an annual Christmas tradition in Cincinnati – the Over the Rhine concert at the Taft Theatre. Wonderful show (though not any Christmas songs, which perplexed me). Here are some of my favorite pictures:

My mind is like a treehouse

Posted on December 16, 2005January 22, 2020 by Paul Armstrong

We were looking through some old photos today, for no other reason than to see how our kids look like us. We found this image: Which makes me immediately think of being 7 or 8 and listening to the Star Wars soundtrack or Victory At Sea. Ah, memories. Unfortunately there is this picture too. How…

It only makes sense

Posted on December 14, 2005December 17, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Today Elliott had a mini-Christmas show at his pre-school; where the kids sang a few songs and teachers told the Christmas story. I had brought the video camera and camera. Unfortunately the video camera was left on by someone cough Sonya cough, so we couldn’t capture what unfolded. And whate exactly unfolded I hear you…

Dear Adelphia – Stop making me hate you

Posted on December 13, 2005December 17, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

We’ve had our differences Adelphia, and you’ve done your best to make me happy. For months I’ve been indifferently content (and by indifferent, I mean that I haven’t noticed how much you suck). Yesterday around 1pm my connection disappeared. I went to play my drums. 45 minutes later I came back to my office. I…

As promised, here is the story I tell the kids (when not falling asleep). The Legend of Little Billy Tickle Not long ago, in a place far off from here, there was a small family that wanted peace and quiet. The Tickle family lived in a wilderness far from the glow of city lights and…

Tales of embarrassing parent moments

Posted on December 10, 2005December 11, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I’m not even sure I should be telling this story, but for the sake of free information and a great tale, I must share this. Only moments ago Sonya and I were in the kitchen talking and sharing as is usual on our Saturdays. Abigail was outside in the snow, playing and walking and being…

Did I just say that out loud?

Posted on December 5, 2005December 11, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

The bedtime ritual can be either incredibly easy and effortless or a battle with a relentless, excuse-laden and twisting foe (involving wrestling holds and a rock-solid exit policy). Last night Elliott asked me to tell him a story, one I made up, but that helps him settle down and sleep – “The (Imaginary) Legend of…
