Sunday evening ⚽️T
By now, Canadian sports fans are either really happy or very sad.
So here's something completely different.
How're you all doing?
The Gallery
It’s your weekly Photo Gallery! Come on in, take a look at what people have been up to over the past week and share some of your own photos.
They don’t need to be taken with a fancy camera or works of art. Share any SFW photos you’ve taken with even the poorest of potatoes. Of course we love to see that arty stuff too.

Fur Face Friday
Hello and welcome to Fur Face Friday, where we soothe the savage breast of the working week with the most precious of the paw-laden. Last week’s fuzzy friends engaged on all the levels. This week they took it a little slower. Like simon’s new friend Speedy.

| Okay, not so much of the fur but those swirls give me a fuzzy feeling. |

Thursday evening open thread
I went to the chiropractor, did some grocery shopping (cheese popcorn for lunch!), and that was pretty much it.
How about everybody else?
Blaurgh!Talk
The world just keeps setting traps for us, for which we must be vigilant and sometimes a little extra bouncy. Hop on the blaurgh and get it all out.
Thursday Morning Open Thread
Today in 1982, Bladerunner released in theaters. Rutger Hauer still has the best death monologue in cinema history.

Wednesday morning open thread
I have a busy day today; meeting my friend Andrea downtown, and heading to Sonic Boom Records to see if they have Angine de Poitrine's CDs in stock, as their website says, and maybe pick up some headphones while I'm there. Then heading to Mountain Equipment Co-op, because I want to add some stuff to my solar farm; maybe a second mini solar panel, solar light or power pack, and then to the Eaton centre to look for various things like a linen blouse. I aim to spend some $$$!
What's everybody else up to?

A: “Nathan, how could you lose the rent money on a silly crap game? You promised you’d give them up!”
N: “I didn’t, honey. I lost the money on a bet over polka dots.”
A: “In the entire world, only you, Nathan Detroit, could lose $1000 bucks on polka dots.”

Biscuit had his checkup, but was so agitated (this was unusual), and looked not great, so that they couldn't get blood for his kidney and thyroid tests, and they gave him oxygen for about 20 minutes, since he had such laboured breathing. They've given me some gabapentin to calm him down and we'll try again next week; I'll give the gaba to him about 2 hours before going in.
I had mentioned Angine de Poitrine to one of the receptionists (yes, I'm proselytising), and she is now a huge fan too. Another cult member!
We had rain, and sun, and storm and rain, and more sun.
Blaurgh!Talk
Yeparooni, folks, it's another week near gone, having tried hard to squeeze the stuffing out of ya. Slap it right back with a blaurgh or two.

It's supposed to rain for the entire day, so I guess it's a stay inside kind of day.
How is it where everybody else is?
