Spoiler Free Star Wars

Today I was able to go and see the new Star Wars movie. I can’t say anything more about it at this point but after 3:01am I’ll be posting up my SPOILER FREE Review. So, this morning I was supposed to go and drop Andrew at school and head to the movie location. However, close to when it was time to leave for school I got a call from Andrew’s teacher. No school today, the school has no power, no backup power, nothing. So then it was scramble time to figure out what to do with Andrew. I contacted my Dad (he was to pick up Andrew after school and keep him for the afternoon) and also Allison since I couldn’t get in touch with Dad.

Goofing with Lightsabers

Eventually, I ended up having to bring Andrew over to Allison so that dad could pick him up from there. Luckily, the school was flexible with Andrew being there and he was on his best behavior and didn’t disrupt anything too much.

After dropping Andrew off I headed to the highway. Saw that it was bumper to bumper, I was already a 1/2 hour behind, so I tried an alternate route. I ran into a bunch of traffic and worked myself into a huge anger/panic. I did get to the city with about 15 minutes to go and parked in the first garage I could find then went up and up and up to find a small spot to wedge in my car. Then I hustled down, down and down to street level. I took off running to the theater only to get there and try every door to see that they were locked. Expletive! Luckily, that didn’t mean that I was going to have to sit out the movie. Someone inside opened it up and let us know that if there is ever another screening in the morning they have the side door open. Good to know.

I headed upstairs to take my seat. The rest however, you are going to have to wait until 3:01am to read.

Star Wars Collectors Tin

I was in Target tonight before work, checking out the toys as I am apt to do. I’m always on the hunt for new Star Wars Hot Wheels vehicles. Tonight I found the BB-8 one from the upcoming Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens. I have been looking for this one ever since I heard it was going to be released. I’m very excited that I now have it. This completes all the ones that I know of so far. I’m hoping for more of them when the movie is released.

In order to keep my Star Wars vehicles organized and in good condition I could leave them in the packages, which would take up a lot of space, they do already as I have not opened any of them, yet. Or I could put them in a collectors case. I have been looking at the Neat-Oh Star Wars collectors tin ever since I first saw it come out. It had been $12.99 and I wasn’t ready to buy it, however it was on sale for $9.99 today so I picked one up. I checked out the Neat-Oh site and there is going to be an Episode 7 themed tin to be released as well. I may have to get one of those, too.
