okay, one more post for tonight...
one of the great things about being here and having help with rex is that we've gone out to see a couple of movies. we *never* see movies -- we didn't even before rex came along -- so this is a big deal.
(spoilers ahead for both 'up' and 'star trek')
we saw 'up!' in 3D (loved it, although the sad beginning was really, really unexpected and made me cry) and 'star trek' (very fun, and now i've got a crush on either chris pine or zachary quinto or both). i kept joking (during it, which probably bugged steve) that it was very much the same movie as my beloved 'star wars'. certainly, i wasn't the only one to notice this, and there's a very astute summary of the similarities of 'star wars', 'star trek', 'the matrix' and 'harry potter' here.
