Broken Area

It’s one of those weird days (17 and overcast) where it feels sort of warm and humid and chilly in a way. I’m not complaining, it beats the heat waves in more eastern parts of the country

People vandalized a bell at the museum. This annoys me. Isabelle takes a more nuanced view, as she does.

Jon added things to the list as I shopped.

Isabelle’s hands hurt from cycling, and we’re going again tomorrow damnit!

Yup, we didn’t have one last week, we were away!

Away where you ask? We were in London, ON, for our niece’s wedding! It was cool. there was a tea ceremony.

We drove there last Wednesday, and returned partway home on Sunday.

We stopped in Sudbury on the Sunday and boy was it smoky, the worst either of us have ever experienced.

I mean so bad it felt like I’d smoked a pack of Players’ Plains.

There was a monsoon while I was shopping.

Nice day today.

Tom, Isabelle’s former prof and our former colleague, is in town.

They are checking out the public art project from last year.

We hope another colleague stays.

No real smoke today, though it tastes like.a steel town.

Recorded on a Friday.

Released on a Saturday.

Rob Lee in a shambles!

Today is convocation day, and Isabelle has a thing, which explains the odd recording time.

The smoke has been crazy.

The heat wave has broken.

Friday?

Yes Friday, deal with it.

Crazy week. I had a departmental retreat.

Isabelle was a camera operator for the local cable tv channel.

It is insanely hot.

Today is also the fifteenth anniversary of my Dad’s death.

Also, it’s pride month and the grocery store we usually go to has cool flags up.

LCBO run! Bag, and no sign!

now that’s a title.

Isabelle had a hectic week, all over the place.

Our mayor speaks French.

We got the last bottle of propane!

(Oh that propane stop means an extra break this week).

I have a departmental retreat next week. Yay?

I looked and this title was in my notes on backpack studio. Now, is it the one I typed in on Thursday? Look I don’t know, its not Monday.

Monday? WHAT?

Yes, we recorded most of this one on Thursday shopping, then finished up on Monday in the backyard.

It is a holiday today.

We went to Sudbury and Isabelle’s film was in a show!

Jon was amazing (he came with us).

Spring is finally here.

Early this week, as Isabelle has a thing in North Bay over the weekend.

What a nice day! Definitely will be some cycling in store today. Well, not in the store, but you know what I mean.

My cycling injuries are pretty much healed.

Isabelle got fish and chips from a place.

Trees are budding!

A bit early today as Isabelle has a thing.

I got into a cycling accident this week. Don’t worry I’m fine.

It’s not a pleasant day. Rain, 11 degrees, not great.

Isabelle will be a cable access star!

Still settling into the spring groove.

That title is, obviously, ironic….

12 degrees and rainy today. Beats the hell out of last week.

Isabelle has grants to work on, as usual.

My term is done!!!

I received a very nice email yesterday from a student.

I GOT MY BIKE OUT.

I’m going to BBQ steaks tonight. I didn’t mention this on the podcast, but damn am I excited.
