MOTD
Hope everybody had a good Valentine's Day! Normally we head out to a fancy restaurant, but a few years back, we decided to save ourselves a wad of cash by staying in and cooking instead. We had a fancy meal, tossed a log in the fireplace, cuddled up and watched some shows on the DVR. Nothing too exuberant, but no less enjoyable.
I haven't quite figured out yet why A.V.A. keeps rebooting my PC as soon as I enter an instance, but I've installed it on another PC, and it works just fine there. Weird stuff!
