The Times they are a-changin’
It’s funny, but I always get this funny look when I talk about technology being alive, evolving, and maybe even slightly sentient. We dumped cable TV today. And it got me to thinking on how certain technologies just become obsolete after a while. We did it because the only ones who watched TV in our [...]
Photographic Memory sucks…
My brain is *SUCH* an asshole. I have a photographic memory, but I have *ZERO* control over it. I recall the strangest stuff but usually can’t remember where I left my keys. I had another life. Before this one. Before the kids, before my wife (well, after her, but before this iteration.) I was married [...]
Father’s Day Part 2 – The Family’s Revenge
(If you don’t care about the trainwreck that is my family, you can skip this post. It’s really intended for an audience of one – but as I *AM* a blogger and it’s my nature to air dirty-laundry online…here goes) Wow – I forgot that my sister reads my blog from time to time. I [...]
To my dad on father’s day…(Rated R)
Dear Dad. You’ve been dead now for 13 years and as I don’t believe in any form of afterlife I know that you’ll never know how I feel. This isn’t for you this is for me. Fuck you. You were never a father to me, or more specifically, you were never my “Dad” You made [...]
To the *Childfree by choice* idiots:
I wrote this comment in response to a post on the ChildFreedom blog, which is apparently a site for people who don’t have kids to bitch about the lame decision they think people who do have kids made. Just remember Einstein, our kids are going to run the world you grow old and infirm in, [...]
Drama…
Ever get that sense of impending doom? You know, the “The world is going to end and I can do nothing but sit here and watch it happen.” kind of feeling. Ok, well maybe this isn’t that bad, but it has the potential to go nuclear. My eldest son is 13. One of his best [...]
To the Car Store:
My wife brought this to my attention, and while I’m posting a link to the PDF, I’ll translate it here for you: ToTheCarStore “To Some Family: Please take good care of our station-wagon. From: Aidan” What makes this so special is that Aidan – who I usually refer to as “Panic” spent the time to [...]
4-year-old for sale…cheap…
Tonight I sent this tweet – and I’ll explain. It’s now 10pm and I’m just sitting down to dinner. My dinner is consisting of: 2x PB&J Sandwiches. 2x Smirnoff Ice coolers. Now let me explain why. Across the room on the loveseat sits my beloved 4-year-old-who-I’m-seriously-considering-selling-to-the-gypsies-since-walmart-won’t-take-him-back-thanks-to-my-having-lost-the-receipt… It’s 10pm. We went through the bedtime routine, had [...]
Little Feet….Big Feet
This morning Chaos climbed into our bed….I was out chatting with a friend last night and it seems this is the result of me not being home at bedtime is that he’ll come to our room at about 3am to check to make sure I got home ok. (and then just snuggle in and try [...]
Ah Disorder….
Ok – climbed out of the downstairs shower tonight, the one that everyone seems to use these days…and there was no towel. I yell out to the TV room to ask my son, ever-so-affectionately called “Disorder” for a reason, if he had taken it out with him. “No.” quickly came the reply. “Well then where [...]
