Quite a busy day ahead of me today, partly caused by me zonking out last night and getting a late start, but also because we are heading out early to see that musical I mentioned a few days ago. Some people may be shocked at the thought of me sitting through that, but it's called
Rock Of Ages and has nothing but '80s rock music in it. That makes it all bearable, probably even enjoyable!
Gaming-wise, it should be a big day as well with quite a few
hot titles shipping to stores, including Crysis 2, LEGO Star Wars III, PlayStation Move Heroes, and a bunch of others.
But for now, back to work ...

We just got back from our Kevin Smith show, and while it wasn't his typical Q&A gig that we have seen a few times on DVD (check it out, they are called "An Evening With Kevin Smith"), it was their
smodcast show, more of a panel discussion where they talk about all sorts of topics. It was funny as hell, but I was a tad disappointed because I had an awesome question to fire his way.
It's been raining cats & dogs over here for the past few days, so no excursions are planned, aside from some errands and loads of DVR watching.
Look for a new contest to kick off this week. We're going to be giving away thousands of Lord Of The Rings Online newbie keys to give "new" players a bunch of free items.
