Default Mushy brakes?

I think I may be crazy, so I thought I'd ask in the forums.
How far down can you press your brake pedal?

I was driving the other day, coming off a highway exit to stoplight. I swear for a second, it felt like my brakes lost some pressure. It was enough to cause a microsecond of panic.
After that I think my brakes seem mushier. I can press the brake pedal all the way to the floor with a little effort, even though they seem to engage normally with just a little pedal pressure.
Because it's the brakes, I will of course take it in to the dealer. But I don't want to get to worked up over things in my mind.

I am driving a stock 05 V6 Manual with the ABS, Traction Control.

Default RE: Mushy brakes?

Check the master cylinder to make sure the cap isn't leaking. Isn't there a TSB that could be related to this.
