The weekend is over and done with again, so it's back to the grind.
Even though the weather sucked, yesterday was a fun day. Due to the constant raining, we did not get to plant any of our bulbs for our spring flowers, but we got to play The Smurfs' Village (iPod) and Stronghold Kingdoms, and we watched The Walking Dead, Burn Notice, a few episodes of Hell's Kitchen and NCIS.
We might be housebound this week. There's some major construction work that's being done to our street, so we'll find out tomorrow AM if we can leave the place at all.

The new quad core is in the house! I'll be setting it up later today and then take it for a test drive. Got a few friends bugging me to try out Eve Online, which I haven't played since 2002 when it was still in beta, so this should be interesting.
We don't really have any big plans for this weekend. Some chores around the house, some shopping, errands and lots of DVR watching before things get out of hand again. Last night, we caught up on the latest Human Target and Chuck, which had lots of "Die Hard" references.
Where my turkey leftovers at!?
