The weekend is over, but it was filled with gaming, TV watching and sleeping. It was great!
We're basically all caught up, apart from a few series I have to watch by myself. While we munched on cookies and M&Ms we watched Amazing Race, another ep. of Heroes, Bones, V, and two movies,
Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, and
17 Again. Going in, we were more excited about the superheroes cartoon, but oddly enough, the
Zac Efron/
Matthew Perry comedy/drama turned out to be the better movie.

Yesterday was a beautiful day in the area, another nice fall day that's cold but sunny. Perfect for walking to the store to get our groceries — especially since we sort of live uphill.
Doing some errands was the only excursion of the day, so we gamed a bit (yes, CrimeCraft) and watched some Bones, Heroes, FlashForward and Fringe. If we watch some more later today, we might actually catch up!
I've gotten House of the Dead Overkill and Darkside Chronicles ready to roll when my zapper laser guns arrive, and it won't even cost me a fortune in quarters! I also ordered a black Wiimote and Nunchuk, which should be here in a couple of weeks.
