Ended up watching like 5 episodes of The Office in syndication last night, started on WGN then TBS. It's good background stuff. Also watched it because all the television we do watch and record is on Mondays and Thursdays, especially Thursdays. We can't even check out Flash Forward because there's no DVR tuner available. Awesome. And they didn't offer the pilot as a free iTunes Store download. Which is fine. Maybe if it continues to get good word of mouth, we'll get the entire season in iTunes and watch it all in one go, without commercials. I'm back off the Redbox wagon, picking up He's Just Not That Into You and Monsters vs Aliens last night and Speed Racer (again) and Confessions of a Shopaholic tonight. Went to Xoco for lunch with Tracy today on her day off. Pretty cool to go jetting through the city on my bike to lunch. Food was good too. Would be better if they had some sort of signage or instruction visible. Take out orders can go right up to the register. If waiting for a table, tell the hostess, and wait in line, then when seats are available, she'll give you a number placard. Use this to place your order, then go find the hostess again to get seated, and display the placard. Churros were really good. The agua fresca del dia (Pineapple, cucumber and lime) was refreshing.
