Highlight of the weekend: front row seats for the Comedy Central taping of Patton Oswalt's upcoming special. Kath and I might very well make it on screen - there was a camera in our face for most of the evening. Patton was hilarious, although 70% of his material is on his CD and 20% is from an HBO special he did a while back; no Tivo and no Robert "Cokey McSnortFuck" Evans, unfortch.

Lowlight of the weekend: not much, really, although Mariano's meltdown on Friday night was sad. But, then, there was Saturday and Sunday that made up for it.

My fantasy baseball team, which somehow made it to third place before the league playoffs started, has completely fallen apart - after leading most of the week, my team died over the weekend and I finished in 6th place. Don't know whether they overperformed or I just got lucky for the entire season, but I had hoped to have a strong showing in the playoffs.

This is going to be a very expensive week. Consider:

DVD: Star Wars, Mr. Show Season 4
Books: Final volume of Stephen King's Dark Tower series
Games: Star Wars: Battlefront, Tiger Woods 2005
