Apropos

That’s how you win a Game 7!

I legit almost just went to sleep. Like I took my glasses off and was just laying down with the sound and brightness on low. Then Springer woke up the whole country.

Where was Max Scherzer to scream in Schneider’s face for that decision?

That mound visit alone made staying up to watch the whole game - despite a 4am alarm - so worth it! Let’s go Blue Jays!

The hype videos for The Blue Jays have been fantastic this playoffs. I am 100% in! Let’s GO!!!

What a privilege to have grown up watching John Candy. I Like Me was fantastic.

Me logging in to see ticket prices for the RUSH reunion show in Toronto…

Being a Toronto sports fan sure is something…

Vladdy is SO back! My goodness.

It’s been a good run. A fun Summer. #BlueJays

Maple Leafs training camp begins, Blue Jays get shelled in KC….coincidence?

My kids no happier about my current age than I am, apparently. 🤣 Listen here: www.iheart.com/podcast/269-...

Cathy sang to me on the Internet and some guy wearing cowboy boots just told me he liked *my* shoes. Great start to my 40s!

Thanks Cathy!

Emptied my pockets at 3am… #MyHarvest

Wicked crowds yesterday!

Shout out to the person holding up this sign last night for The Head and The Heart! Hit me right in the feels and set the tone for the whole performance. What an uplifting Harvest experience in Officer’s Square!

The sound in Officer’s Square has been fantastic - no matter where you stand or sit! Another awesome night out at Harvest last night. Was the MC on the TD Main Stage. Ran into so many familiar faces! And the performances were top notch! Also, is David Shaw basically an honorary Frederictonian now?

Seeing the new Main Stage venue at Harvest in action, it looked awesome!I’m impressed! Some highlights: Connor Fox proved he belongs on the stage, Grace Bowers & The Hodge Podge RIPPED, and the Revivalists gave love back to the festival & crowd: “Feels good. Feels like home. Feels like family.”

At the library, getting a peek at the new Harvest Music Fest tent in Officer’s Square. Giddyup!

One of the all-time great Leafs, Sundin put in the work! An honest look back at his life & career, and what matters most to an NHL legend (w/ plenty of fun stories about Domi, Patt Quinn, Pat Burns & more throughout!) Hard to come out of reading this and not think he gave his all!

Don’t be fooled: There are NO La-Z-Boys at Spirit Halloween LA-Z-BOY.

Purposefully parked beside an almost identical minivan, saying: “…be funny if they came out & got confused about which van was theirs!?” Only to return after the movies and earnestly attempt to unlock & enter the nearly identical van parked beside us. Anyway, The Naked Gun was wonderfully silly.

As a bald man, I find the amount of hair I just pulled from our shower drain deeply offensive. Staycation Day 4!

Goodfellas is a classic! Pileggi (who adapted his own true crime novel w/ Scorsese) provides even more detail in the book. An excellent rewatch companion! Some of the things you might think are over the top in Goodfellas, come straight from the Wise Guy himself. A fascinating read! Staycation Day 3

Staycation’s been good so far. Day 1: Slid n slide.

Alan Doyle in Officer’s Square. That was a time!

I’ve never felt more in control of a vehicle as I did changing lanes on Regent Street coming home from seeing F1 at the theatre today.

Taught the kids about the late Michael Madsen tonight. I voted for Resevoir Dogs, but….Free Willy would have to do for now.

I finally read The Stand! Only took me 21 years 😅 (Started it in college. Put it down for awhile, couldn’t remember what I’d read. Didn’t want to start over ‘cause it’s 1141 pages. Waited 20 years. Finally committed to it.) Ending was ‘meh’, but loved it overall. Well worth the wait!

It’s fun to be a Jays fan right now.

👀

Yes!

The day after Canada Day should be a holiday, so everyone can recover from staying up for fireworks. 10:40! PM!? 🫩

Looks like a promising adaptation. Loved the book! Can’t wait for this! youtu.be/vkcENinRJ-g?...

Back in Freddy after a week on PEI. Still in vacay mode. I am Man of Green Gables.

BBQing under cover. #Rain #UmbrellaBackpack #RedGreen #DadLife #Vacation

Gotta support the local economy! #PEI

How you dune? #Cavendish

On vacation in PEI, but don’t even bother going by my house while we’re gone. The way my family packs, there’s nothing left there to steal.

“Take a chair” 🤣

There are people out there who call Timbits “donut holes”, but the hole of a donut is the donut hole. These are just lil donuts, whole. They should call ‘em Donut Wholes!

Got to hang with my college buddy, CTV’s Katie Kelly, this past weekend during the IWK Telethon! The auction for this Bedazzled Team Canada jersey she’s sporting - from the ICON, Anne Murray - is open until June 12th! Support the IWK and own a piece of Canadiana: www.32auctions.com/AnneMurrayAu...

Based on the amount of reusable bags we have in our home, I’d warrant they are also considered “single use”.

Over the weekend, while my kids were at their grandparents', I got a notification that my youngest blocked her sister on Kids Messenger. lol This is WHY, according to her...

“Supper was really good, but, next time, don’t put weeds* in mine! -our 9yo *spinach

It’s not so much that it ended the way it did, it’s that we KNEW it would end the way it did. We knew. #Leafs

Go Oilers. I guess. Cripes. #Leafs
