May The Fourth Be With You

Sort of in the middle of a bunch of stuff.

Going to see the Marvel screening of Thor this evening.

Still have a bunch of stuff to do.

However I had to post today since it is International Star Wars Day.

Star Wars has been very very good to me.

I have friends I have met through both the fandom and my time working at Del Rey on Star Wars fiction and non-fiction.

I am grateful for all the lovely things that have happened in my life due to Star Wars.

Okay, this has always confused me...why is today Star Wars Day? Shouldn't it be May 25th?

The answer is in her subject line: "May the Fourth [Force] Be With You." Bad puns always trump release dates. :)

Because you can twist May the 4th to May the Fourth (force) be with you. Lucas films came up with it.

Lucas films came up with it.

I did not know that. I was happier thinking fans came up with it.

Ah, of course, that makes sense. Thanks...I told my mom and she cringed before saying, "That's stretching it, isn't it?"

lol

I saw Thor the other night. It was fun! Hope you enjoy it,
