We didn't go see Red Tails, nor did we watch the Australian Open men's final (won by Djokovic over Nadal in an epic 5-hour, 53-minute match). Suffice it to say that we got lazy.
Instead we ran a few errands, popped some pork chops in the slow cooker for dinner, and watched
Alcatraz, House, Fringe,
Russell Peters: Red, White and Brown, and Leverage.
There was also some The Old Republic in there, and I have to admit that Balmorra is still my favorite planet (on Tatooine now).

Not sure if we're going to be watching any tennis this weekend now that our favorite Kim Clijsters has been ousted. We watched the Federer vs. Nadal match yesterday, so that highlight of the tournament is also over with, and we're definitely not watching the two biggest squealers in the sport play. My ears are bleeding just thinking about that match.
Guess we'll have a nice relaxing weekend, watch some Netflix, DVR, and maybe go check out
Red Tails.
If you haven't yet, check out our
Most Anticipated Games Of 2012 articles. Personally, I'm most looking forward to Max Payne 3 and Ghost Recon.
