We had friends over to watch the series finale of Lost, and while it's been a good six seasons, we have no idea what just happened. Questions were answered, but equally as many new questions have presented themselves. Guess it's open to interpretation so people can form their own conclusions and make of it what they want. I personally don't like these kinds of endings. So many other shows get canceled and you are left hanging without resolution, and these guys had six years to wrap it all up, and they didn't.
We also went to see Date Night, which was surprisingly good and quite funny in a more sarcastic/adult way. Tomorrow, we're going to go see Prince of Persia, so hopefully that won't be a disappointment like most game movie adaptations.

Yesterday was a sunny, nice and relaxing day. We ran some errands, watched "Kitchen Nightmares" and a few episodes of the "V" remake. We went out to Best Buy and bought a new case for my gaming computer since the old one has so much stuff and cables inside that the graphics card is overheating, as well as a netbook for Adam so he can get back to conducting interviews (his laptop died). Quite the productive day...
With the warm weather approaching, that also means summer concerts tours are being announced, and boy, have we got a few lined up. Over the next few months, we are going to see Iron Maiden, the Scorpions farewell tour, Queensryche, Slash and Danzig. \m/

We have quite a few things to do this weekend! We've made a list of all the errands we need to run and chores that need to be done. Apart from trying to the catch up on DVR programs (we watched NCIS, Chuck, Bones and Stargate Universe), we have some E3 prep to do and a ton of household stuff.
If the good weather keeps up, maybe we'll even squeeze in a run. I've lost about 25 pounds since last year and ideally I'd like to shave off a few more, but at the very least keep it steady. Last weekend's trip to Häagen Dazs and double-header BBQ meals sure didn't help in that area. I still feel bloated.
