Tonight I took my daughters to the bathroom while we were out for dinner. On the way down the bathroom hall, our five year old said somewhat sheepishly, “Do we have to go in the boys room, Dad?” I was a bit surprised by her sudden awareness that we would be using the “boys room”,…

Santa Claus to the Rescue!
We went out tonight to a cool old, historic house (Sonnenberg Gardens) to hear our friends Steph and Robert perform some Christmas music. Met up with some other friends there, too. Was a very nice night. But the best part was definitely when a poor concert goer got stuck in the bathroom. The door was…
Electrical Problems
You may have heard that the Buffalo Bills game last Sunday was blacked out a few times thanks to some balloons getting caught in the electrical wires outside the stadium. The entire stadium lost power half an hour before the game, and then once more in the second quarter of the game. Everything was shut…
The Sabres are Double Awesome
I just posted a more detailed article on our Buffalo Bills site, but thought I’d share the condensed version here for those who might not care about the game’s details… Last night the Sabres played a pretty tough team on the road. Minnesota was 4-0-0, and they are a great defensive team. Buffalo is good…
Tired
As you the readers of GregsHead may already know… I am busy. Busier, more stretched-thin, and just more tired than I can ever remember being. Maybe it’s just cause I’m getting old? Maybe I’m still trying to do too much. But last night, as I was reading the day’s emails, news, and various things around…
Feeling Old
Yesterday as I was walking through the mall on my lunch break at Apple, I was reminded again that I really am old. 🙂 Yes, I realize I am exaggerating a bit. Turning 34 soon does not in most circles qualify as old, but it seems that at the mall… it does! First of all,…
Now I Know What To Do
This morning, while I was checking email on the laptop and watching the kids play in my in-laws’ driveway, Kirstie stopped by to ask me a question. “Dad, how do I stop if I’m going down a fast hill on my bike?” Puzzled by the question I asked, “Well, what do you mean? Why do…
Two Cuts, And A Pig-Man
As I was putting Julia, our two-year-old, to bed last night, she was looking at my awesome, old-school Sabres shirt, with the vintage logo pasted on the front of it. She was touching it, exploring it, and without looking up she said to me, “Dad, you have two cuts.” “Cuts? What do you mean?” I…
The Crying Wall
Earlier this week, after a big storm blew through, I noticed my wall was peeling! The paint on the 6-inch wall under my office window had bubbled up and was coming off! There was water under the paint somehow, so I tried to dry it off, but noticed it was still coming. I checked for…
English Class
Riding home from the long weekend in Buffalo, Jen & I were talking in the front seat about anything and everything. (It is a 90 minute ride.) At some point we got talking about technology, and specifically the iPhone (I think wished we could look something up on the internet) and I said, “Maybe we…
