Man, who knew watching TV was so tiresome? Being comfortable, cozy on the couch, snacking, and watching stuff sure makes you sleepy. However, before we dozed off, we managed to make a dent, checked out a few episodes of Bones, Kitchen Nightmares, Blue Bloods, Camelot, and Glee (thankfully, this is where I dozed off!).
At bat today: more of the same!
A big F**k You goes out to Fox network for canceling The Chicago Code, easily one of the best shows on TV right now. Obviously, nobody over there uses their brain.
The Event also got the ax over on NBC, but we were only watching that because we picked it up and wanted to follow the story. It was decent but nothing brilliant.

This will be a busy weekend. We have the usual chores to take care of, but we also have to do some packing/moving, as we're getting new windows installed next week, and the office desks have to be moved out to make space for the window installers to do their thing.
The main thing to do is watch shows on the DVR. We've been neglecting it for the past two weeks, and it has skyrocketed to 96% capacity, so we HAVE to veg out on the couch, eat chips, drink soda and watch TV. Such punishment! Luckily, there is nothing in the movie theater that we want to see. "Priest" looks interesting, but it's not something that we need to watch immediately.
Next week, we'll be switching to E3 mode to set up a slew of appointments and even attend the first pre-E3 event. Joy!
