Well at least I will get to play one game before this weekend’s bonspiel. Then no curling only ice ice ice at the Olympic Trials for 2 weeks. Maybe I will sneakily throw a rock.

Watched the Jays game. Gutted. Immediately climbed into car and drove 1.5 hours to airport. Attempted to nap in car for 2 hours. Failed. Boarded plane, now in Winnipeg running on caffeine and fumes. Still wearing my Vladdy shirt.

In an attempt at decluttering we put out a basket of my kid's old stuffies for trick or treaters to take along with their candy. Our little neighbour just showed up dressed as a cop. He took a frog stuffy 🐸.
Really changed the semiotics of that costume 😆

If you have any Winnipeg-based curling friends and fans, NEXT! Casting needs a ton of specific background performers for the upcoming feature film, Sticks & Stones. The story centres on John Shuster and his road to Olympic gold.

One time when I was at spring training, I was putting sunscreen on in the media room before heading outside, and Hazel pointed at me and said: “Smart man.” It’s probably the most positive reinforcement I’ve ever received.

Non baseball related post between innings: we had two full sheets of brand new adult curlers tonight at the open house, most of them women! So exciting to see new people falling in love with the game. Fewer than a quarter of our members last year were women so this is amazing to see. #culring

That's the difference in the superstars right there: Vladdy is good enough to hit a HR off Shohei, but Shohei could never manage to hit a HR off Vladdy.

A person I know from high school repeatedly sends me follow requests on a different platform. I delete them. Dude, I haven’t spoken to you in decades, we have nothing in common, and your posts indicate you won’t like what I post anyway. *finger hovers over block button*

One of the rare times I’m glad my bags are taking a while to arrive on the carousel.
Just noticed the water fountain at the Ottawa Airport.
The water is spelling out: Go Blue Jays Go followed by a Canadian 🇨🇦 flag. So cool.

Other than pranks, I successfully made a plaster bat for my pottery studio, made a pasta bowl mould, and started the process to make a maker’s stamp. Oh and a mug.
