This week promises to be a busy one, with more pre-E3 stuff and the premiere of the
Red Faction: Origins movie.
We watched Chuck, Kitchen Nightmares and Game Of Thrones, which has long surpassed Camelot on the awesome scale. Talk about a brutal way to get a golden crown!
No trips to the theater this weekend, but we'll most likely watch The Hangover II next, and that should be a good time. We are also looking forward to the upcoming long weekend, and there so happens to be a sale on baby back ribs at the local market. Coincidence? I think not!
Don't forget, APB Reloaded goes open beta today ....

Now that we're all still alive, I wonder how many people actually gave away all their earthly possessions. How awkward it must be now to ask for them back!
We had a relaxing day yesterday, did our usual errands, watched NCIS, The Good Wife, Bones, Castle (oh, the cliffhanger!) and
Robin Hood (with
Russell Crowe). We're still undecided on whether or not to see Pirates of the Caribbean, but there isn't really much else playing right now that we do want to see.
While the official open beta for APB isn't due until next week, you can "unofficially" sign up and start playing, so have at it!

Is this the end of the world? Did the rapture happen, and I'm in heaven now? No, you say? What a scam!
The window mess is over and work has been completed, so now we can move everything back. Well, first we must clean a bit. It's amazing how much dust can accumulate when you have a bunch of PCs humming. I'm surprised we're still breathing ....
No big plans this weekend, we went out with some friends last night and had some
In-N-Out burgers as our last pre-rapture supper. Now we're going to plop ourselves on our beloved couch and watch some TV.
