Dang I've been busy. Besides logging about 1,500 miles on my car in the last 3 weeks between New Orleans, Little Rock and Nashville (and around Memphis) I've been using my season tickets to the Travs' game pretty well. I went to 3 of the 6 games in the first home stand... not too bad. I'm sort of thankful they're out of town for a week though so I can catch up yardwork, housework, reading, DVR etc... you know, the important stuff. Also it's about time to clean, fuel up and launch my boat ("Sweet Amber") for the year. The next nice weather weekend should see me up there firing up the grill and the tunes and getting things ready for another awesome Summer. I've got to get the tent out this weekend too and make sure some parts didn't mysteriously disappear or something.
Caught the season finale of Spartacus: Blood & Sand over the weekend and I must say, one of the best season finales of all-time. Awesome bloodletting and such. This has become one of my favorite shows on TV and I'm really looking forward to another season next year, which I hear is in production. I'm going to re-watch the whole 1st season on Blu-ray just as soon as that sucker hits the shelves, you can bet.
Lots of new stuff out yesterday to catch up on, and I'll start it with one of my favorite bands...
