The gift that keeps giving all year ‘round.

Posted on December 23, 2005December 30, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I just got my free iPod Nano video in the mail. I won it post-participatorily (?) from the cre824. I’m excited. Quite. I’m not sure what to do. I just keep starring at it. Merry Christmas to me, 2 days early.

My Hands

Posted on December 18, 2005December 30, 2019 by Sonya Armstrong

As I look at my hands I see my mother’s hands, as I remember them when I was young; the well defined creases around the knuckles that revealed beauty with aging. I used to love to hold my mother’s hand in church and feel her nails and look at her fingers; I studied them well….

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…

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…

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…

Uncommon weekend

Posted on November 17, 2005December 6, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

I don’t travel much, and I’m thankful. But in roughly 3 or so hours I\’ll hit I-75 South to Chattanooga TN for the CRE824 Design Conference. I believe there will be speakers and contests and people designing things in 24 hours. I’m not entirely sure, but when my friend Joshua invited, I couldn’t say no….

Updated some pictures

Posted on November 12, 2005January 22, 2020 by Paul Armstrong

I updated some of my beard growth progress. Have I said how much I love the new camera? I’m getting much more comfortable with it, and the settings, etc. Best purchase of the year.
