It seems that we were not the only ones who liked Captain America: The First Avenger, as Cap unexpectedly kicked Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 off the #1 spot this weekend by making nearly $66 million. Granted, the Potter movie is in its second week, and most people who wanted to see it have already done so, but nobody expected the Captain America movie to perform THIS well. Kudos!

Yesterday was rather uneventful as predicted. We had dinner with friends, and then we watched Falling Skies and Leverage.

Yesterday was a perfectly good, lazy day.

All we did was run some errands and grab groceries, plopped ourselves on the couch to watch Torchwood, Burn Notice, Weeds, and finally The Tourist. The last one disappointed a bit with too much talking and a very slow pace. Oh yeah, and we washed all of that down with some ice cream!

Tomorrow we're meeting up with a few friends for an early dinner. Apart from that, we have no plans, so I foresee some more couch time in our future.

Not sure what GamersFirst is up to. There have been some small patches over the past few days, but none seem to fix the (very annoying) lag spikes that have cropped up over the past week or two.
