Happy 30th Star Wars

Today marks the 30th anniversary of one of my all time favorite movies and series, I can't believe it's been 30 wonder years. I was six going on seven years old when I saw this space movie for the first time. As soon as the little ship being fired on came across the screen followed by the really, really big ship I was hooked. Seeing Darth Vader walk through the blasted door was amazing and it only got better from there. Star Wars started me on my path to Geekhood. Star Wars has shaped my life so much, that I couldn't imagine my life without it. It was Star Wars action figures that began my now very large toy collection. Star Wars let my imagination soar and started my love of sci fi and fantasy. Star Wars was and is simply the best, and will forever be a huge part of my life and I wouldn't want it any other way.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY STAR WARS!!!!!!!!!!

Star Wars Movie Marathon

Well I wasn't lucky enough to attend this event but my brother did and he would call me after every movie. For the first time in the history of the world they screened Star Wars Episode 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 back to back for seventeen hours. It was in celebration of Star Wars 30th anniversary. May 25 marks it official day and this weekend in Los Angeles is the big Celebration IV Star Wars Convention. I will be attending only Saturday and Sunday unlike my brother who took vacation time and is attending all six days. So for now I am living vicariously through him. Sounds like the movies were great.

Shrek The Third

Well we just got back from watching Shrek The Third. We really enjoyed it, the story was very simple. The Frog King dies and Shriek is next in line to be the king, of course he doesn't want it and finds out that there is one other person, Arthur so he goes to get him, while he is gone Prince Charming gathers all the villains and attacks Far Far Away taking over. There were alot of laughs and some very memorable moments.. my favorite being Snow White and her song of attack. Also the Ogre babies are the cutest thing. The movie just flies by it's about 90 minutes. If you liked the first two Shrek you'll enjoy this one. As with the other two Shreks this one has an underlying message of not be limited by how people think of you.

Daisy

Well it's been two years since we rescue Daisy from the pound... two years of not going to Vegas, two years of not taking a vacation, two years of being pretty much restricted on where we could go and for how long. But with that said we wouldn't want it any other way. Daisy has brought so much joy and love into our lives. She loves us unconditionally. She greets us with enthusiasm even if we are gone for just five minutes. Not that she can't be a pain in the butt sometimes.. we still love her and wouldn't change her for anything.
