Last Friday, I went on a impromptu expedition to Yorkville with commanderteddog. She wanted to show me some unusual mall architecture, and, hey, who am I pass that up? The mall in question was significant in that it still showed some real signs of life, yet was clearly operating on the edge. It had been updated in sections, and the demarcation lines between mall architecture of the 70s, 80s, and 90s was very sharp.

Following this, we took a stroll over to see the Judith Merrill Science Fiction Collection, at the Toronto Library.

Last Saturday, we attended a small gathering for doc_mystery's 42nd birthday, where I learned by Wii Fit "age" is several years higher than my actual age. There were some fantastic steaks, and we all played a round of velvetpage's new game, Pompeii. Naturally, I took photos of the game, and not the people.



Ah, Pompeii! Thriving metropolis, comfortable in the shadow of that curiously cone-shaped mountain!


Several turns later...velvetpage won, BTW.

And, of course, this past week it was Canada Day!
