MOTD
In case you hadn't heard, the weekend has arrived!
We kicked it off in style with Sloppy Joes for dinner, watched Stargate Universe (I love the sound of the spaceship), NCIS, FlashForward, and Dollhouse.
Apart from doing some errands and groceries, there's nothing planned for this weekend so there's time for plenty of gaming mixed with a hike or walk around the lake. Leveling up my CrimeCraft gunsmith is what it's all about!
We got our Dragon Age review copy today, so maybe I'll get to check it out, but you'll still have to wait until the launch date for a verdict. Damn embargoes!
