Wednesday is my favorite day of the week because we have homemade tacos for dinner. It's not some roach coach stuff or Taco Bell junk (OK, those aren't too bad, either).
Last night, we watched
When In Rome, which was nothing special but all right; the latest episode of
Entourage; and we started catching up on
Caprica, but so far it's not really drawing us in. It seems a bit weird in a sense that there is no clear direction for the series yet.
