Thursday and Counting...

Hmmm. Almost out of holidays, and there's still too much to do around here.

Oh, well.

Adam's friends came over today and watched "The Empire Strikes Back", which was hilarious because one of the girls had never seen it, and the rest of them wouldn't shut up with the comments throughout the entire movie, and she was getting very annoyed (although she was gracious about it and didn't pull out an Uzi).

How is it possible for someone on planet Earth not to have seen the entire Star Wars trilogy yet? (I don't count the prequel movies, because those were just bad dreams, the output of a fevered mind, and should be completely removed from the canon.) This is something beyond my comprehension. And it makes it very difficult for the other members of the audience because they're all aching to spill all their trivia knowledge, but in order for the poor soul to get the complete experience, they really need to keep their mouths shut.

Well, they tried. And we got through the movie and no one was killed. Except, of course, in the movie.

Now we have to wait for another day to watch the "Return of the Care Bears" -- I mean, "Return of the Jedi" so she can finish up the rest of the trilogy. I don't remember if she's seen the prequels yet. I hope not. We're going to try and convince her not to see any of them, because it is a known fact that they cause brain implosions.

May the Force be with you.
