I Think We Can Save Your Husband's Arm. Where Would You Like It Sent?

by Rainier on Nov. 29, 2010 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

As expected, we didn't do a whole lot yesterday. The in-laws left way early in the morning since they have a long drive ahead of them to get home. We went back to bed and inevitably woke up in the early afternoon. We skipped our usual errands, and after cleaning up the place a little,  we saw Faster (with Dwayne Johnson AKA The Rock), which was an OK movie at best with a somewhat hasty ending (and a few plot holes).

After some leftover ribs, we tossed a few logs in the fireplace, plopped ourselves on the couch and watched The Good Wife and Human Target.

Our condolences to the friends and family of Leslie Nielsen (84), known for Airplane! and the Naked Gun series; he died this weekend from complications from pneumonia while trying to fight a staph infection.

The Core Of Mans' Spirit Comes From New Experiences

Yesterday was filled with a whole lot of doing nothing. We ate some more, took a nap, and played Fable III, Vindictus, Stronghold Kingdoms and Enslaved.

The in-laws are leaving in the morning, so they had to squeeze in a bunch of shopping really quick. Luckily, I was spared from the experience.

Nothing on the agenda for later today, apart from some errands, maybe tidying up the place, watching Faster and undoubtedly catching up on stuff that the DVR recorded over the past few days.
