Episode 188 - My Clamps Are Limited

So we had an eventful week.

We went down to London to watch Maddie get her MSc.  Stayed with my Mom which was pretty great, and also ordered Chinese food, which I have a thing for.

The convocation itself was truly excellent.  UWO know how to do this.  Frankly, it is way better than ours at AU  (which is pretty good, but Western's is just better).  The band played them on to the Olympic anthem, which was great.  Oh and they played the Raiders of the Lost Ark theme when they were leaving, then, Sweet Georgia Brown.

They don't have the full video up yet, but they do have the honorary degree speech, which you can see here:

I'll post a link to the part where Maddie gets her degree when it is up.

Halloween is coming, which means I have to hide candy from Isabelle and Jon....

Isabelle bought some wood for her work (you can see the pic above) and she explained more about her final project.

Back to the normal Saturday shopping.

Eye update, no change.

We've got a big week coming up, it's Maddie's MSc convocation, so a mid week trip to London is in order.

Isabelle has been having lots of visits with artists.  They come by her studio space and offer their thoughts on her work.  Some have a sort of ideological approach.  I find that crazy.  Of course, what the hell do I know.

It is way too warm for this time of year.

Hey, Yooper, you can hear me get the Pernod today!

So, tomorrow, which is our normal shopping and recording time, Isabelle is making a drum.  So, we went today, Friday.

I took the bus down to where her studio space is, at 180 Projects.  You can see a picture of her on the left there.  

So, what are the demographics of Friday shopping?  It skews old, and slow.

An artist Isabelle is into is coming to town next week, so that's pretty exciting.

We've been watching The Orville, which we like, Star Trek: Discovery, which we like, and, The Leftovers, which we like but find disturbing.

Jon's a big Greyhounds fan, and can't miss a pregame show.
