You're Not Clean Enough To Bring Into The House

by Rainier on Jan. 17, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

We pretty much did what we'd set out to do yesterday: nothing.

We watched NCIS, Mad Men, Smallville, Human Target and a stand-up comedy bit from Louis CK, which was totally hilarious and so, so politically incorrect.

While the holidays have been over, we finally finished off the last of our New Year's dinner leftovers, and tomorrow we will be stripping down the Christmas tree and bid it adieu.

Last night was also the 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards, and The Social Network seems to be the big winner, so it'll be interesting to see how well it does at the Oscars.

Two Things Aren't Paralyzed, My Imagination And My Memory.

by Rainier on Jan. 16, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

Yesterday was a pretty quiet day. We managed to do a whole lot of nothing, just the way we like it, and it's pretty much the same thing that we have planned for today. We did visit some friends to celebrate their daughter's one-month celebration.

If we feel like it, we might make another attempt at seeing The Green Hornet, but we also have a few Netflix movies lying around, Three Kingdoms and True Romance. If all else fails, I've been jonesing to see the new TV series, The Cape.

You Better Plan Your Massacre More Carefully Or I'll Start With You

by Rainier on Jan. 15, 2011 @ 12:00 a.m. PST | Filed under MOTD

Last night, we wanted to see "The Green Hornet," but amazingly enough, both showings in the time frame we wanted were sold out, so we opted for checking out The Dilemma instead.

No other serious plans for the weekend. We have some family party to attend, the usual groceries and then we'll just lounge about and watch our DVR.

If I get up the courage, I might even gut my work computer and do the much-needed upgrades I've been lazy about doing, but with all the parts lying around, it's a bit daunting.
