Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good news, Shir!

I've got nothing for you, Sophia, since my dumb cat has no reaction to any other animal nearby, if they aren't right in his business.

I saw Iron Man! Good times, good times. And I remembered to stay past the credits.

Soon I will walk up the street to see the Memorial Day parade that Somerville puts on....

That parade will always live in my memory for this story: Several years ago, but post-college, I was home over Memorial Day, so we went to see the parade. While walking in the parade, Mayor Mike (possibly Congressman by that time) totally called me out. He said, "Jesse! Did you bring your laundry home with you?!?" And I totally had. I was super embarassed. (My dad used to work for him, which is why he knows me.)

Oh crap. What happens past the credits?

This: Samuel L. Jackson shows up as Nick Fury at Stark's saying, "You think you're the only superhero around?" and tells him about some Initiative connected with S.H.I.E.L.D. -- the govt org that one guy was from. Which I knew had to be an acronym, but I couldn't keep the words in order in my head long enough, and I thought maybe it was SCHLEP. Yeah, no.

Speed Racer did not disappoint mac. I did indeed bag the Y and we are in central park. He has been climbing on giant rocks and I am trying not to be a worrywort.

Always Anti-fascist!

Jesse, McNutty went back to a foot beat because DW was up for James Bond(Which of course, he didn't get. But he made other films.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I ended up seeing Indy, and thought it was great fun, even if suspension of disbelief was key.

So the after the credit stuff, except for the SLJ part, none of it means anything to me! Which is fine. I get that it has something to do with the rest of the comic books, but it's all blah blah blah to me. Which means I'm not sad that I missed it! YAY.

Hey, Grey's Anatomy people, what is the deal with the sparkle pager ?
