We just rolled in from a night on the town with our friends from Kalypso, who are showing off a few of their upcoming games today, but more on that later. A great time was had by all, an entire slow-roasted pig was consumed, and we're so stuffed that we vowed to eat no more meat for the rest of the week.
Here's a blast from the past: A new patch for Soldner came out, and out of curiosity, I'm currently reinstalling the game. I used to love playing Soldner, so let's see how well it aged.

Yesterday was kind of a mixed bag. We went to the museum to see the Pixar exhibit, and it turned out that they only allow a limited number of people per day, and they were sold out an hour after opening. While we were there, we decided to check out the rest of the museum, since it happened to be free admission day.
We went to see
The Town (bank robbery movie from/with Ben Affleck) which was quite good and very intense. We also watched
No Ordinary Family, a new TV series with
Michael Chiklis (of
The Shield) about a family who gets superpowers. It's very reminiscent of Pixar's
The Incredibles.
Then the power went out for a few hours, so it was pitch dark and quiet. It's amazing how little there is to do without electricity these days ... well, except going to bed and sleeping.

The weekend is off to a good start with four hours of Hell's Kitchen (my goodness, that Raj dude is a whack job!) and two hours of Sons Of Anarchy (good stuff). Maybe later, we'll scratch off a few more episodes (itching for some Fringe), so unlike our failed attempts of last week, we might actually make a dent in our backlog.
This weekend will also feature a cultural outing, as we are taking a trip to the local museum where they have a Pixar exhibit, so it shouldn't be too horrific.
I've been playing Darksiders and having fun with it, and I've also played some more Vindictus before they end the closed beta. I reached the level cap a little while ago, but mat farming is always fun, and we still gain points to upgrade skills.
