The weekend is over, but it was filled with gaming, TV watching and sleeping. It was great!
We're basically all caught up, apart from a few series I have to watch by myself. While we munched on cookies and M&Ms we watched Amazing Race, another ep. of Heroes, Bones, V, and two movies,
Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, and
17 Again. Going in, we were more excited about the superheroes cartoon, but oddly enough, the
Zac Efron/
Matthew Perry comedy/drama turned out to be the better movie.

Don't you just hate it when you just can't seem to wake up from a nap and it turns into a five- to six-hour stretch? Anyhow, the weekend is here, so it's all good.
We plopped ourselves on the couch, put a few logs in the fire, and watched Stargate Universe, Supernatural and an episode of Flashforward before we succumbed to the sleep monster. Not a bad stretch of TV watching. If we can maintain this pace tomorrow, we might actually make a dent in the backlog.
Seems our
Assassin's Creed II review kicked up a little dust. Sorry, Charlie; we call it as we see it.
