A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....

Happy Friday, my friends. By the time, you read this I'll be at the movies meeting Rey, Finn, Poe and Kylo Ren from Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

The truth is I'm hoping this guy will show up:

He has to. Come on, its Lando!

The bigger lure is this guy for me.

Is he still Jedi or did he go dark side? I'm still betting on Luke being Jedi. My adoration for Luke Skywalker knows no bounds. If you have been reading my blog, you know of my not so secret love for Mark Hamill. I'm sure Mark does too since I'm sweetly stalk him on twitter. (He has favorited three of my tweets to him, so far.)




Of course, Leia ,now a General, Han, R2, Threepio, Chewie and The Millennium Falcon are all back too. Double yay! It's great to go back to an universe I grew up watching again.

Have a Force Filled Weekend, my friends.

May The 4th Be With You

Today is May the 4th also known as Star Wars Day. A play on the famous tagline from the Star Wars Movies: May The Force Be With You. If you are a new follower, then let me share that I love Star Wars. Seriously. I do. I have since way back in May 1977 as a kid. I have watched them so much especially the original trilogy that I can practically say all the lines. Yep. My favorite is The Empire Strikes Back.

Before I go on my how I love Luke Skywalker monologue. Let me give props to Carrie Fisher who rocked as Princess Leia. She radiated strength, wit and beauty.



Now, let me get back to my how I love Luke. My adoration for Luke and especially to Mark Hamill knows no bounds. In my own life, Luke became a touchstone when I had my own difficult paths to walk. True story, I did get to meet Mark Hamill way back in the 90's. He was so sweet to me. My heart just melts thinking about that. I still have his autograph on my wall.

Also from Empire..


I was fascinated by the Jedi Knights as a kid and still am. I like to think that I am Jedi in some ways.


I love this picture of James Earl Jones, who voiced Darth Vader, and Mark Hamill. Father and Son together.


Before I go, I can see this is getting to be a long post. There is so much more that I can say about Star Wars.There are other characters that I adore. I may have to do another post on them. I can't forget Billy Dee Williams as the charming and daring Lando Calrissian.




Sending Love to all my fellow Star Wars fans out there. Can't wait for Episode 7!! I am hoping the omission of Billy Dee Williams in episode 7 will be rectified!
