Yesterday was a bust, again! I was looking forward to our boys-only excursion to the city for beer & BBQ, and while we were supposed to meet at 4pm-ish, I didn't get a call until 8pm and the entire plan changed to dinner and a movie.
Since we were planning to go to the movies on Sunday, I declined and instead we did some chores, groceries, played some Wolfenstein, watched Supernatural, a few episodes of Heroes, and FlashForward.
The plan of attack for today is to do some errands and watch Law Abiding Citizen and Zomebieland. Should be a good time!
