The first day back to work after a little vacation is always tough. Getting back into the swing of things takes a little effort, and I'd rather be hiking up Mt. Rainier. I'll be putting up some photos later on so you can enjoy some of the views we got to experience.
On another positive note, the CrimeCraft update was released yesterday, and so far, the new patch and content are being well received. Unfortunately, the nightclub feature did not make it into the new patch, although no reason has been given for its omission. The rest is good, though, and from the looks of it, the game population is on the rise. Hurray!

Ahh, it's good to be home again, sleep in our own bed and drive our own car. Always love leaving for vacation, but equally enjoy getting back to our own place.
Apart from a little scare when the check-in terminal and the customer service desk couldn't find my reservation for the flight, the traveling went without a hitch.
We came back just in time, too, because our DVR was 79% filled with recordings. Luckily, quite a few were repeats and double recordings, but once we plopped ourselves on the couch and watched NCIS, Stargate Universe and Human Target, we're back to about 50%.
