What a perfectly good lazy day it was yesterday. With our early start, we got a lot of nothing done,. We ran some errands, and apart from that, a lovely nothing. Played some Crimecraft, of course, and some Borderlands; we also watched Bones, Supernatural and NCIS.
Today, the plan is to go for a hike, but our flaky friends seem to be MIA, so not sure if that's still going to happen or not. I wouldn't be adverse to another lazy day.
Going to do some work, and then off to sleep I go.
