Well, Wednesday was quite the fiasco. We went to dinner at our neighbor's place, and a few bottles of wine and various beers later, it was suddenly 1am. Luckily, we did not have to go far, but a quick nap turned into an all-nighter. Neither one of us heard the alarm, so we woke up at 8am.
Oops ....
We didn't have any plans last night, so we decided to just play some video games and watch TV (Psych and The Good Wife).
