Day 2351 – My Reaction To Star Wars (Spoiler Free!)

I have been looking forward to this day for a long time. I bought my ticket a few weeks back and planned on going alone. I had some last minute company and I was happy about that. Turns out that even though I got the 9:35 a.m. showtime, there was still a pretty long line….even at 7:30. As it turned out though, most of the people in front of us were there for the 9:00, so we were the first ones in our theater.

I have decided that since a picture is worth a 1,000 words, I’d share that.

I even got to meet R2 in person after the movie. Very kind in person. No autograph though…

Day 2345 – Sometimes, You Just Have To Let Go Of Something You’ve Held Onto For A Long Time

A few days ago, I let something go that I’ve been holding on to for about 16-18 years.

This was a piece of baggage I kept on my person every day.

I never took it off.

People commented about it.

I never thought it would ever go away.

It would hold me back when climbing.

I can’t believe it never turned my skin green.

Friends (especially LONG time friends)….I took off my toe ring….and threw it away.
