The weekend's over, and mission accomplished. We've done all that we set out to do: watch Iron Man 2 and not much else. Yay us!
Well we did catch up on some more FlashForward (everybody should watch that show, it's awesome), some Chuck, The Amazing Race finale (booo, our favorite team didn't win!) and The Time Traveler's Wife.
Of course, we also sent flowers to mom for Mother's Day! :)

Iron Man 2 was good stuff! It was action-packed, with good special effects and lots of humor. There's a lot more linking to SHIELD and the upcoming
Avengers movie, with plenty of screen time for Nick Fury. Be sure to stay until after the movie credits for a little something extra ....
Apart from movie watching, we did not really get anything done. Slept, ate, ran errands, and watched a few episodes of Fringe.
