Lady Liberty = Sith Lord ??

WARNING: Star Wars Nerdity Ahead!!

When I saw this picture of the Statue of Liberty recently being hit by lighting, all I could think of was Emporer Palpatine using his Sith Lightning (below) ...

"UNLIMITED POWER!!!!!!!"

Does this mean that Lady Liberty has mastered the Dark Side of the Force???  Then again, I WAS ONCE STRUCK BY LIGHTNING and I'm not evil ... much...

Star Wars Movies To Be Released In 3-D!

OMGOMGOMGOMG!! Yes, the Star Wars nerd in me just peed myself a little while reading that all six Star Wars movies are coming out in 3-D!. According to THR, The Phantom Menace will hit theaters in 2012, with the other five films to be released (in order) each consecutive year.

Which means I'll be 48 years old when Star Wars: A New Hope is released.  Oy - I hope my brittle old bones will be able to make it to the popcorn counter.

May 4th = "Star Wars Day"

I found via Twitter that today is Star Wars Day.  May the 4th be with you...

Monday Weigh In - You're Not Going To Believe This...

As many of you know, on Thursday I WENT BACK ON THE LOW-CARB DIET I’ve had success with in the past.  I also started walking again (5 miles last week) and I even did 30 minutes of aerobic exercise at home yesterday.

I must say I'm quite pleased with the results - 10 lbs. lost since Thursday – yeah me!!  Now I’ve been down this road (many times) before, so I know the first week is always the easiest week to lose weight.  These results are in no way astonishing or abnormal for me - and, trust me, when you are as big as me it doesn’t take much to drop 10 pounds.  But I am still happier than Oprah in a biscuit factory over the results so far.

My first goal is to lose 10% of my total weight (as of Thursday) – which would be 29 lbs (do the math – it’s not pretty).  So in the first 4 days I am already 1/3^rd of the way to my first goal.  Yeah Me!!

Thanks to all of you for your encouragement – it really helps.  I must say that doing this “publicly” makes me think twice before reaching for a Big Mac.

In non-diet-related news, this is how I spent my weekend…

Dust Bunnies Mrs.  Alaineous and her hubby Mr. Mischief send me the boxed set of the original Star Wars trilogy!  They no longer wanted it, so they mailed it to me – along with a hysterical “National Smell My Hand Day” postcard.  It was wonderful spending the weekend in “A galaxy far, far away…”.  Thank you Mrs. A and Mr. M!!!!!

So ... how was YOUR weekend??

Afternoon Dance Break - Star Wars Disco

A combination of two of my favorite things - Star Wars and disco music.  Enjoy...

Keep on Dancin' ...

Lightsaber Flash Mob

I love the whole "flashmob" phenomenon - where large groups of people descend upon a public location, carry out some sort of pointless act, and then disburse as quickly as they came.  So the Star Wars nerd in me REALLY loved the Lightsaber battle flashmob (above) which went down in a U.K. mall.

Via The Daily What, which gave it the most awesome title: "Begun, the Cabot Circus Lightsaber Flashmob has."

Yes, I am a total dork for Star Wars...

Caption This ...

I'll start:

"Now witness the firepower of these fully ARMED and OPERATIONAL battle station BOOBIES!" 

Star Wars Weather Forecast

According to the Star Wars Weather Forecast, NYC's current climate resembles the ice planet Hoth.  Furthermore, it's telling me I may need to climb into a freshly killed Tauntaun for warmth.

What's Star Wars planet is YOUR weather like?
