Life on Yavin IV

Hello there. I'm Jedi Knight G. Since the creation of the New Jedi Order by Master Skywalker, the Jedi have been free to take part in previously forbidden activities. One of those being Marriage. The following are the tales of my experiences being married with children. May the force be with you...G.

There's Ice on Yavin IV

"You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy" - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Obi-Wan may have been referring to Mos Eisley space port when he said that, but I'm sure it applies to the state of the residents here in the Bryant sector on Yavin IV when the ice storm hits. Crazy I tell you! C-R-A-Z-why? Because it's gonna Snow/Sleet/Ice or some combination thereof.

Question! Which is the absolute worst time to go to Wal-Mart?
A. Day after Thanksgiving
B. Day after Christmas
C. Sundays after Church
D. Anywhere from 1 to 4 days out from a (possible) snow/ice storm.

The answer would be "D" I've heard stories that would make a wookie cry about being in Wal-Mart during a mass winter weather panic. If you don't believe me, check my fellow Jedi in the force Darren the Dashing and his blog on this winter phenomenon. Now the folks up north in the Hoth system. They're used to it. Not a problem for them, just another day. If only we could learn to deal with it in such a calm and calculated manner.

So what do you do when the ice comes down and Yavin. Well, when you live in my house and you have endless hours of time to kill indoors you do the only thing you can. Watch both of the Star Wars Trilogy from start to finish. We're halfway through right now. Xander hasn't quite gotten into it yet, but Haven she's sooo cute "Darf Bader daddy...Bader" It's been a fun morning. Jenn decided to clean out her closet instead. Sometimes I just can't figure out women! Sink into the couch with a drink, your kids and a really long long movie or clean out your closet....huh?

Well, atleast she did a good job. I'll give her that. You can actually walk into our closet now and see what's in it. "Impressive. Most Impressive."

Well, I need to get back. Got a lot of movie left and I haven't had my hot chocolate yet. Snuggle up and stay warm.

No Star Wars for me, either... I'm with Jenn!! Let the daddy deal with the youngin's and get something constructive done!! Though I'm not cleaning out my closet, it needs it.. So tell her when she's done come on down here and get busy!!!

I would've picked B: The day after Christmas.. But your right... The folks around here get mighty ugly when it comes to the ice storm... I guess better safe than sorry..

Me, myself... I try and keep all of my stuff stocked up so that if we need to stay in the house a few days, we are prepared..

I'm having spiced tea, and surfing the computer...

I gotta go check out Unc's page.. I'm sure it's good!!

Stay warm!! Love you all!!:)
