Weekend again, and this one has special meaning since we are celebrating our eighth wedding anniversary! No super special plans, apart from a nice dinner, probably a movie and lots of smooching!
No hiking or concerts this weekend, so it should be nice and relaxing. Maybe i'll even get around to doing my long-overdue case and HD PVR projects.
Last night we watched some Burn Notice, and I also just received the first issue of the Kane & Lynch comic book.
