No concerts this weekend, so if we're good, we'll probably get some time to catch up on a variety of things. Then again, we might just end up doing nothing at all. Got to love weekends!
Last night we watched Psych and
Leap Year, a romantic comedy that was better than expected. Tonight we'll probably watch
Legion and
Fanboys, while a trip to the theater might result in finally catching
Salt. Lots of movie goodness going on around here.
Of course, there will also be plenty of CrimeCraft, StarCraft II and some APB, which I've been neglecting lately.
