RUDE MAN ON ICE: March 2014
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Saturday, March 15, 2014. Of course, there is no beer in the house with which to celebrate because I once again walked by the liquor store two time today without remembering I need to buy some. So I guess we can call the day a tie. I'll take the point and move on. Friday, March 14, 2014. Remains of the night. It's not a lot of fun staying up until 3AM writing a copy deck for a less-than-fun assignment, but it's still oddly satisfying knowing I can still do it. By hand, no less. On an unr...

RUDE MAN ON ICE: October 2014
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Friday, October 24, 2014. Sleep, perchance to snore. Awoke this morning from my third consecutive night of at least eight hours of sleep. It’s my bold experiment to see (1) how many days in a row I can get the recommended full allotment of shut-eye and (2) if I notice any physical or mental benefits from consistently going to sleep before my teenaged son is even halfway through his algebra homework. Thursday, October 23, 2014. Creepy way to end the day. Wednesday, October 22, 2014. So wh...

RUDE MAN ON ICE: May 2014
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Only a man utterly stripped of his dignity, one who every night lays his slightly hydrocephalic head on a pillow of broken dreams, would allow himself to be seen this way: sitting at his desk in the middle of day, not wrestling with the creative tasks of the day, but with a jammed Swingline 747 Classic Stapler. Sent to me over IM, the rapidly approaching deadlines. Being a man of no shame, I’ll take this tale a step farther. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

RUDE MAN ON ICE: August 2014
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Monday, August 25, 2014. Ode to my wife, the paper stacker. My wife's anxiety manifests itself in stacks of paper. Like massage parlors in our not-so-tony town. These stacks are not conspicuous but if you actually look for them, you discover they're pretty much everywhere: innocuous little Stonehenges of real and digital paper that comprise the delicate sinew between an orderly household and the despair of anarchy. So L just came back from his first rehearsal with Stars Falling Out, the ...

RUDE MAN ON ICE: Creepy way to end the day.
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014/10/creepy-way-to-end-day.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Thursday, October 23, 2014. Creepy way to end the day. I felt like I was being watched this evening as I struggled to open my handle-less car door in the work parking lot. I glanced over my shoulder to find a murder of crows eyeing me with their beady, soulless eyes—not one of them appearing to cut me any slack for having held countless field funerals for fallen relatives of theirs during my childhood days as an aspiring priest.

RUDE MAN ON ICE: December 2013
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Tuesday, December 31, 2013. From the mouth of babes. Nipplethorp and I drove into the city this morning for a long overdue catch-up with Chuck. Our original financial consultant flew the coop a few years back and it was with a mixture of delight and unease that we realized his replacement bears a passing resemblance to Liz Lemon's agent on 30 Rock. Monday, December 30, 2013. A great film, by the way. Redford is a stud; the script tight and the director is smart enough to not have the...

RUDE MAN ON ICE: June 2014
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Monday, June 30, 2014. Oh, the travails of parenting continue. Nipplethorp and I are trying to nurture L's interest in filmmaking. This means easing up on the restrictions around what he can and can't watch. His current cinematic interest lies in the horror genre and during a recent respite from his current project reviewing every James Bond film ever made, we recently honored his request to watch The Exorcist. I thought you were sleeping outside, Dad," asked L. Go to bed," I snapped.

RUDE MAN ON ICE: Dumb and dumber.
http://www.rudemanonice.com/2014/10/dumb-and-dumber.html
RUDE MAN ON ICE. Sunday, October 19, 2014. Walking out to the car this afternoon, my life companion made a disparaging comment about her sunglasses and their apparent inability to cut down on the glare. When I pointed out that part of the problem could have been the fact that her right lens was missing, she gave me one of those looks that advised me to drop the subject (and certainly not blog about it). Here is what that look looks like:. There, Nipplethorp. we’re even. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
