Weekend rewind (audioslave)

Sometimes you get one of those e-mails that you can't help but be drawn in by. Got one on Thursday night; a bargain to sign up for XM Satellite radio and get one of the MyFiXM2Go at a ridiculously low price. What could I do? I had to take this offer. We've talked about it more times than I can count. I'm in the car everyday; we're always out and about on the weekends--it just makes sense.

Yesterday, I stopped in a local Best Buy to check out car stereos--nothing fancy or powerful--just something to replace the totally shot factory system in the car. Wound up buying a nice, great sounding new Pioneer stereo with two sets of new speakers (the bigger speakers were free, so you can't beat the price) and having them installed. Jumped completely into the here and now. Gives the car even more value now.

The weekend in general was great. Left work early; saw X Friday night at Roseland. Never have been a fan, but I thought they were tight and powerful. Liz loved it; bitter cold out but we sat in a Starbucks before the show (the Xmas Blend kicks ass) and we were in the door by 11 p.m.--a show that actually saw the headliners on at 8:45--oh, the joy.

Saturday--more Starbucks; groceries and a fun lunch at the Southern-style buffet, then braving the insanity of Xmas shoppers just to get the necessities at Target. Yesterday was laid back; had the ride tricked out with the new sound and then a whirlwind busy day at work (all good things--'tis the season to kick it into overdrive). Home at last and feeling wiped out.

Punch Line weekend ahead?
