MOTD
Yesterday was a beautiful day. We didn't do anything. We stayed up late, worked late, slept late, and then made up excuses so we wouldn't have to leave the house all day. We put off our errands and even changed our dinner plans just so we could stay in, and what a perfectly lazy day it was.
We played some more Plants vs. Zombies on the iPod, checked out
Greed: Black Border (very
Shadowgrounds-like, and loving it so far) and watched some more Olympics, a few episodes of Heroes and Leverage.
Now, this only means we have more to do today, but we'll see about that when we wake up. :)
