Bits and Bobs
I booked a Harry Potter walking tour of London through Muggle Tours today. It runs from London Bridge to Leicester Square, so it'll cover some cool territory even without the Harry Potter thing.
The Sweetie has taken to singing "My Patronus" to the tune of "My Sharona." He is evil.
Finally saw Age of Ultron tonight. I liked it. Not loved it (at this point I think that would have taken lots of Steve moping about Bucky, and then him and Sam going off to bring Bucky into the Avengers fold, followed by lots of OT3 sexy tiems, but then that's why I read fanfic) but liked it a lot. What I did love was Paul Bettany as The Vision. And I thought Natasha and Bruce were sweet together. But I was rather annoyed that Jeremy Renner being a sexist ass on the Marvel promotional tour has rather soured me on Clint Barton's character, because Barton was basically a good guy in the film.
I got Ros and I tickets to see a Canada v. England friendly match on the lead up to the women's World Cup. Still a little bitter that the world cup is in Canada, but Toronto doesn't get any games. WTF, FIFA?
Soccer season is gearing up. I'm coaching Ros' team again this year, and I've drafted the Sweetie to be lineup guy again. He's even got an official coach t-shirt this year. I picked up the uniforms yesterday, and will be meeting the team and handing them out on Saturday morning. It'll be my fourth year coaching, and yet again there are no kids we know on the team except for three of Ros' friends who requested Ros as their teammate. (Getting the four girls on the same team is totally awesome, though. The club's head coach definitely likes us!)

Good luck with the coaching!

I have been following Paul Bettany for aaaaaages (I own Legion! On Blu-Ray!) and I thought he was indeed AH-MAZE-INNGGGGG as The Vision. He's got stunning eyes, and I loved his low key snark as well. And the Mjolnir scene paid off very nicely indeed with him.
I would pay good money to watch Scarlett and Ruffalo clip Renner around the ear. Repeatedly. And I used to really like him as a performer. Now I see his face and a voice in my head says "You, sir, are an asshole!"
Thanks! My goal this year is to get them (sorta) playing positions and to (occasionally) make real passing plays. A girl can hope!
