The weekend was great! The weather held up great, we went hiking, played a few games (Red Faction Armageddon, Stronghold Kingdoms, APB Reloaded and even some Duke Nukem Forever), and yesterday we went to see
Super 8. It's not the best movie but entertaining enough. Somebody described
Super 8 as a mixture between
Stand By Me and
E.T. Seems like an odd comparison, but now that we've seen it, it's pretty accurate.
We also watched some more
Leverage and the newest episode of
Falling Skies, which is shaping up to be a solid series.
Now on to work ...
Gabrielle has sneezed her soul right out of her body! Only by busting out the ghostliest dance moves and thrilling and chilling people will she be able to scare up the power she needs to get herself back into her body.
In Solatorobo: Red the Hunter you enter a world of epic fantasy action in an RPG set on the mythical floating islands of the Shepherd Republic. Take on the story of Red Savarin, an anthropomorphic dog with the ability to take a human form, battle giant robotic mecha and other enemies as you explore the floating islands.

Yesterday was such a beautiful day. It was nice and sunny but not too hot, with a nice little breeze. Doesn't get much better than that! Amazingly enough, we actually decided to put down the cookies, get off the couch, strap on the boots and go for a hike. Nothing too crazy, a few hours just to ease us back into it. Maybe we'll crank it up a little next week.
We also watched some more Amazing Race and a few episodes of Leverage. Perhaps later today, we'll head out to watch either Green Lantern or Super 8.
Apart from that, no plans whatsoever. Should be great! :)

We went to see
Bad Teacher last night, and the movie did not disappoint. To our surprise, the theater was packed when we arrived, so that bodes well for the revenue. If you like raunchy but hilarious humor, then you have to watch it.
I also watched
Sniper: Reloaded, mainly because I've seen the other three movies in the series, and while it's not bad, it was quite mediocre with plenty of cliches.
Our sympathy goes out to the friends and family of
Peter Falk, the Oscar-nominated and Emmy Award-winning actor best known for his role as TV detective
Columbo, who died Thursday at the age of 83.
