Mansgiving was fun. I reffed soccer all day, then came home and the wife cooked my dinner and I drank some beer. Then on Sunday I went to a 10-player clix battle royale complete with 3d buildings. Twas epic.
Then last night I did the house of cards workout and my arms are dead today.
Never seen it but I'm always looking for movies to watch.
If you have access to Netflix streaming, I highly recommend a Doctor Who marathon. Over the weekend, I just had to re-watch "The Wedding of River Song" due to the sheer awesomeness of the episode. You would love this TV show, especially with the current Doctor.

His statement was not one of arrogance or sexism, it was a statement of humility. Here's his true statement:
"I suck at cooking. Could you please use your awesome cooking skills to make a sandwich for me? I'm not worthy of your full cooking prowess where you make a 7 course meal fit for royalty, I merely was for you to grace my palate with a simple sandwich, and this simple act will re-affirm my world views that you are indeed awesome."
My wife asked me a question I never thought I'd hear her say this morning.
She asked who my favorite Doctor was.
I was literally flabbergasted, I couldn't respond. My wife hates Doctor Who. After a second I stumbled out "Oh, uh, probably David."
"Tennant?"
*my mouth drops... who is this woman???*
"Umm, yeah. Why?"
"Oh, no reason, one of my patients asked me who your favorite Doctor was and I didn't know, so I'll tell him today."
Just an odd marriage interaction.
I while back, I had something similar happen. We were watching Big Bang Theory and they made a comment about Green Arrow (likely asking his real name or something), and someone said Hal Jordan or some such. I chuckled and surprisingly so did Krista. I actually paused it to ask,
"Did you just laugh at that?"
"Yeah, it was funny," she replied smiling.
"Wait, why was it funny?" obviously fishing to see if she was just laughing because myself and the canned laughter unexpectedly moved her to.
“Because Green Arrow’s name is Oliver Queen.”
I nearly fell over. Seriously I was overwhelmed and had to hug her right then and there. I was on cloud 9 all night because she actually remembered one little bit of nerd crap out of the thousands of nuggets I’ve thrown at her over the years. Of course I have Smallville to thank for that, but whatever.
Actually... I got mad cooking skills...just no oven in the efficiency apartment I'm in right now. Both parents worked so I grew up cooking for me and my brother most days before they got home. Really looking forward to getting into a 2BR or maybe a townhouse (with a full kitchen) once we get the financial crud figured out through the lawyers.
At this point I would treat anyone like royalty that made anything for me though. For one it would be home-cooked food. Two; I wouldn't have to make it myself and three...a little variety would be great. My limited kitchen confines me to cold items and meals I have to microwave for 4 min.
