Whew. #Bluejays

You have no idea how gleeful he was about this. About the home run, yes, but mostly about the posts.

Volunteer schedule in hand for the Trials. Normal Curling Canada event volunteer: here’s your schedule with your 20 hours, in 5 hour shifts. Enjoy the event! Ice crew: here’s your schedule of 9 hr shifts for 16 days straight. And if you can do more let us know. #curling #benicetotheicecrew

Questionable umpires doing questionable things. #bluejays

The results of the bisque fire are in and everything survived!! #pottery #kilngodsbepraised

"History was full of the bones of good men who'd followed bad orders in the hope that they could soften the blow. Oh, yes, there were worse things they could do, but most of them began right where they started following bad orders." -Terry Pratchett, Jingo

When you’re up 7-1 and it’s the bottom of the 9th and you’re still nervous…Kev, you sure you don’t have 3 more outs? #BlueJays #bullpenjitters

CANADIANS and OTHER NON-AMERICANS: I’m looking for housing. Late 30s, nonbinary, doing an online university program. I’m Ontario-based, but open to relocating. It’s just me and a sweet, well-behaved indoor kitty. And a few plants. 🌱 Do any of you guys have space available, potentially?

How long until Boone gets ejected? #BlueJays

That Kirk jersey purchase by the 15yo back in April was a solid choice. #BlueJays

Me to my new boss:I have a volunteer commitment that will affect my work schedule in November. Boss: oh volunteering is great we have days you can use for that! How many hours do you need? Me: well based on my last experience…about 14 hours/day for 4 days, then 8-10 hours/day for 10 days? #curling

If you had “every time Djokovic’s age is referenced” on your US Open drinking card, RIP your liver.

Just had to delete a post because someone an atrocious apostrophe got autocorrected in. Do I look like a greengrocer? #roundworld

I wish ardently that there were different commentators for this match. #usopen

Having had to change out all the handles at events because of malfunctioning sensors, I hope it’s a solid system that works.

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's amore. When you swim in the sea and an eel bites your knee, that's a moray.

This is Leo. He is patiently waiting for this guy to throw the ball. Gonna be here a while. 13/10 (TT: twogoldenleos)

My kid, having grown up watching Bay of Fundy tides (around 7m where we live) upon viewing the tides in PEI (1.2m): nah Mommy thats not a REAL tide.

Hmmm…

15yo: can we paint my room? And add moulding to the ceiling? Me: sure I can do that on my break this week. Day 1: FFS how can one human accumulate so much junk?? And it’s filthy in here! Clean. other rooms and full of junk. Day 2: Prep. Repair, prime, caulk trim and windows, patch drywall. 1/6

Please clouds, my migraine and I desperately need rain. Or I need to move to Iceland.

Today is my last day with my current employer. We started with chocolate cheesecake and coffee for breakfast.

Any #Trans curlers in down east area of Maine, know you are always welcome exactly as you are at our little club just across the border in St Stephen, NB. And to all my US curling folks, hang in there. #curling

For shame, USA Curling. Cowardice.

Absolutely shameful. Curling is for everyone and gender doesn’t matter on or off the curing ice.

Baileyville wildfire mostly contained, no threat to Charlotte County 🔗: chco.tv/baileyville-...

Stone cold Mason Fluharty. #BlueJays

Turns out it’s a good weekend for making pint glasses and experimenting with texture. It’s also a weekend where everything is drying super fast which is usually NOT the case where I live! #heatwave #pottery #ceramics #beer #texture

Me: oh good it’s Friday I can stay up and watch the whole Jays game! Also me: dammit they are in LA aren’t they. I will be asleep before Blue Jays Central starts.

after sharing our book about making outdoor pigs pay, lots of people are sending us this meme:

"Yippee-kai-yay, outdoor pigs."

This is not restful activity conducive to a peaceful bedtime but it sure is entertaining. Allez Vicky! #tennis #mboko

When you get a sample of clay called dark granite and you’re a curler, you just gotta. #pottery #ceramics #curling

Also more jugs and my studio looks like a crime scene but this groggy red clay is lovely to work with. #ceramics #pottery

Had a stressful, exhausting day at work…so, to get out of my own head, I made a beer cup! Slab built, used a texture roller I made and a fun rock. I didn’t let the slab stiffen up enough before I joined it but what makes it wonky makes it appealing right? #pottery #ceramics

Go for the jugular today, I decided. #pottery #ceramics #lookatmyjug

Oh heck ya #PLAKATA #bluejays

Is it too early to start with Bieber jokes? #BlueJays

PLAKATA has entered the chat. #BlueJays

Woke up early, coffee and toast on the porch. Short run, shower, and made some stamp blanks. Left them to dry, coffee with a friend. Lunch courtesy of @scibri.com followed by several hours of carving. Now time to nap before the Jays game. #saturday #running #ceramics

Blowing it open 5th inning! #BlueJays

Time to vibe. #BlueJays

Just picked up my latest set of #pottery projects and learned my sheep has apparently been the talk of all the pottery classes for weeks 🤣

My brain has melted. No sleep, high anxiety, no running = barely functioning human.

My dream job: going from place to place, learning from masters of dying crafts the skills of their trades.

*cough*
