This week has been a bit whack with us trying to get over our jet lag. It's never been this tough, and not sure if it's a result of that, but I couldn't figure out what day of the week it was. Glad it's Friday. Hopefully, some good sleep over the weekend will put us back on track.
No particular plans, but with the DVR back in working order, there will be quite a bit of couch time involved.
Looking forward to the upcoming Star Wars: The Old Republic
content update, but more interested in the new "Guild features" mentioned for one of the future patches.
