I like to stuff things down my pants

Posted on March 28, 2006December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I supposed I should feel guilty about publicly exposing the idiosyncrasies of my children to the world – but in all honestly the world isn’t reading “The Circus”, nor is a small town — so for the handful of you loyal readers I like to share our world and what goes on; not sure if…

Say a little prayer

Posted on January 18, 2006January 22, 2020 by Paul Armstrong

If you happen to think of it, say a prayer for us today. We take Abigail to an occupational therapist for the S.I.D. (Sensory Integration Dysfunction). They’ll mainly just try to get a read on the “triggers” (clothing, scheduling, body, etc) by just talking with Abigail (and us, I assume) and probably come up with…

Drowning in my Thoughts

Posted on January 10, 2006January 22, 2020 by Sonya Armstrong

First it starts with one thought and then I find I’m surrounded by many more that threaten to drown me right where I stand and I frantically think of ways out and how to attack the them. The floods are rising and I get wrapped in frustration, fear, panic, helplessness and anger. Like Peter in…

My daughters first date

Posted on January 7, 2006January 22, 2020 by Paul Armstrong

Today is Abigail’s first date. I know, I know – she’s only six, but it is 2006 so you need get with the times. Ok, its not a real date but she is going with her friend Austyn (from her school) to see Dragon Tales Live at US Bank Arena downtown. My fatherly instincts have…

I Want To Be Like A Bear

Posted on January 5, 2006January 22, 2020 by Sonya Armstrong

I wish I could say I eagerly roll out of bed every morning, ready to start the day singing or something, but let’s just say I at least roll out of bed within 15 minutes of waking up (Paul may tell you otherwise, but he does\’t really know what I’m doing up there). It’s dark…

Loneliness finds her own way through parking lot cities with a coal miner’s sense

Posted on January 3, 2006January 22, 2020 by Paul Armstrong

Since I’m waiting around for my very large Photoshop file to save (a 7′ x 4′, 300dpi, 2GB file … doing anything takes ages; and being the smart, savvy designer I am, I used many layers, masks, and effects), I thought I might write. The idea of New Year’s resolutions have always been a sour…

Happy New Year!

Posted on December 31, 2005December 30, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Happy New Years to all of you our friends (and family)! Here’s to remember to write ‘06 (I know it’ll take me at least a week). If 2006 is as wonderful as 2005, then it will be an absolutely amazing year.

Please God, let this ‘vacation’ be over …

Posted on December 29, 2005December 30, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

… possibly in the next 3 days, before I kill the kids. This long with them together, with no school or (real) breaks from each other (and us) makes them … slightly … annoying. Very annoying actually. The punching. The fighting. The pulling. The pushing. And the crying. And then there’s the kids …

What just happened here – a year in reflection

Posted on December 28, 2005December 30, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

The idea of remembering the year gone by appeals to me more and more the older I get — mostly because I forget most everything that has happened. So, I’d like to reflect on the year (nearly) gone by — because I’m old and nostalgic that way. Sit back, relax and be prepared to read…

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

Posted on December 26, 2005December 30, 2019 by Sonya Armstrong

Dear Lady at the 8pm showing of King Kong, Next time you decide to bring your young son to a three hour movie that is really not for young kids, THINK AGAIN. Would it hurt you that much to be a little less damn selfish and stay home if you can’t get a sitter?! Your…
