Yesterday was filled with a whole lot of doing nothing. We ate some more, took a nap, and played Fable III, Vindictus, Stronghold Kingdoms and Enslaved.
The in-laws are leaving in the morning, so they had to squeeze in a bunch of shopping really quick. Luckily, I was spared from the experience.
Nothing on the agenda for later today, apart from some errands, maybe tidying up the place, watching
Faster and undoubtedly catching up on stuff that the DVR recorded over the past few days.

In my haste to call an end to the big video game conferences, I totally missed Tokyo Game Show (Sept. 16-19), and while it may not be of such great importance as the Western exhibits, I expect that a few interesting announcements will be made.
We finally saw "Salt" last night, and while we had been wanting to see it, we all walked out pleasantly surprised at how good the movie was. We enjoyed it a great deal. It was suspenseful and had a few good twists, so it was definitely worth seeing. We also watched the first episode of the second season of "Dexter," and while the previous episodes were all based on a book, the series writers are now on their own, and it sort of shows.
