A strange weekend.

After spending some time on what I will call Project #1 (for the time being). And with some help from Pearly and J-Cat, I hope to unleash it at some point this month. But overall the weekend was relatively uneventful. We wrapped up Viva Pinata; TIP on Saturday, around the same time as ATC’s lovely wife finished hers. Then we went on to play a TON of Dead Space, a bit of Co-op Castle Crashers, a fair amount of Dark Sector, and finally watched a pile of DVR that we have been neglecting over the past 2 weeks.Sunday I spent a portion of the day making a big batch of pea soup(I love the fresh radioactive green that it gets when it’s fresh). I even managed to break 57,000 gamer score, with the JRX breaking 15,000 it was a rather productive weekend.

But this morning was the big surprise….on our way into work (we carpool together since she works across the street from me) JRX tells me she would be interested in going to the LAN…. THIS IS AWESOME!!...we have both wanted to see Chicago...get a REAL deep dish pizza...see the sights....it's just a matter of timing now, will we be at a point where we can get away from work? or will we both be trapped under an avalanche of work. EDIT; we will be able to make it (or will atleast be available for it) so long as it is NOT the weekend of August 16th (hell week for us).

On another note, we have been looking for an effective stress reliever, so first thing after work today we are hitting the gym, and not for the sissy treadmill, we are going straight for the free weights, then after that, if we still need it, we’ll be blowing up some poor unsuspecting Timmy….or whoever else may happen to join the other team…but since the first thought was to play Gears online…but who knows what we might end up playing.

Way to go on 57 K.....LAN is awesome so plan for it even if you have piles of work. So prepare to take thursday- monday off. You need that one day of recovery after getting home.

Deepdish pizza sucks!!! NYC pizza FTW!!! Chicago is a great place! If you can, check out the Shedd Aquarium. It's not just for kids. http://www.sheddaquarium.org/
