The road work in front of our house has been completed, but it is still raining cats and dogs, and it's expected to continue until the weekend. Sigh, it's such a drag ....
This weekend, I'm finally going to get my new gaming rig up and running. I have to switch out some hard drives with the old system and then use the old setup as a workstation. It's not too difficult, but I've been putting it off all week.
Once I've done that, I'm going to check out Eve Online. Some of my gang/clan/guild members have been asking to give it a try, so we can all hang out together. We've been splintered around various games ever since the Vogster debacle, so it'll be good to team up again with people who you can trust and, most importantly, know how to play as a team.

The computer probing continued today, and while progress was made, not everything got resolved. A friend's computer started having .NET issues a few days ago, giving an error upon booting, but also not letting any .NET updates being installed. I think we are closing in on resolving the issue, but it really makes you wonder. If Microsoft has a dedicated phone number for this particular issue and various tools to clean up installation issues, why hasn't this been addressed with a Windows update?
So far this week, not too many interesting games shipped to stores. There's been a bunch of DLCs, but apart from a straggler here or there, I think most of the holiday titles are in stores.
On a different note, we watched Bones, Castle, Fringe and The Sing-Off.
