We ate at Panda Express, went and saw The Avengers and spent the evening with our friends in that order. It was the first day-long outing we've had in quite a while and I was glad for it.

The Avengers is the kind of movie that just makes me happy, truly a Joss Whedon masterpiece. Our experience was sullied somewhat by a particularly loud and obnoxious audience member who felt the need to cackle like a pack of hyenas every time something even slightly funny happened onscreen (i.e. every 10-15 seconds.) She was also fond of loudly repeating dialogue back at the screen. I won't go into detail but she looked like she was ready to be on Springer. It was sort of an interactive movie experience with us trying not to turn into the Hulk in real life to deal with this woman. I wish we would have gone to a midnight showing on opening night as it would have been quieter.

But it still did not ruin the movie. Nothing could ruin The Avengers.

Our friends made dinner for us and we just had a pleasant night together. I see them for rehearsals but it was nice to go there as a couple.

Last night was topped off by me getting the main verse riff finished on for the song I'm currently writing. It's a very chaotic thrash metal-style song, the kind I didn't think I could figure out how to write. But it's getting easier as I get the hang of it. This must have unblocked my creativity for songwriting since I was finally able to write some more lyrics today.

So it's been a decent couple of days, I guess. I'm grateful.

I want to see the Avengers, though I'll more than likely be going alone..which is fine...I would like to hear your music too by the way!

Sometimes it is fun to enjoy an awesome movie privately.

I hope to share my music with you some day! I've probably told you this but I'm dubbing what I do "Cosmic Horror Metal." Think doom metal with lots of lyrical inspiration drawn from gothic horror and occult fiction. There's a hefty thrash influence in the music too though.

I'm ready to see The Avengers again! Maybe this time I'll get Becki to go with me. (No Comic Book marriage for me. She had her fill of the entire Marvel Universe while raising three boys!)

Say what you will about Marvel, they have made a statement with this run of movies that the superhero genre is ready to be taken seriously. Supposedly all future Marvel movies will be set in the same universe. I look forward to the possibilities.

It helps that Marvel has it's own movie studio now and it's not relying on like...say Fox who still has the rights to X-Men and Spider-Man. :( Though I have to say, I was very impressed by X-Men First Class. They made a lot of stuff stupidly incorrect and needlessly changed things, but it was either in a good way or it was so minuscule it didn't matter. And the awesome FAR outweighed the negative. So...for Fox that's pretty impressive! LOL
