Oh my, that nap sure was longer than we anticipated. We were (trying to) watch
Running Out Of Time, and not 10 minutes later, it was lights out. Bet that was a snore-fest right there ....
We don't have much else planned this weekend — the usual errands, including picking up a new iPod so we don't have to listen to the radio in the car, especially morning radio, which hardly plays any music at all. No movies are opening that we want to go see, either. We're waiting for Green Zone next week, so we'll just have to hunker down and watch Netflix and the DVR. Life is tough. :)
