Star Wars Uncut

Posted on by

You guys already know about my love affair with Star Wars. So when it came on my radar that Star Wars Uncut: The Director’s Cut had FINALLY been released, I couldn’t be more excited. Created by Casey Pugh in 2009, A New Hope was cut into more than 470 15-second segments for contributors to fill in. In 2010, Pugh’s team won an Emmy for their work on the project. (BTW- Lucasfilms give the project his blessing!)

There are reenactments with toys, dolls, animations, Toy Story figures, salt shakers, pets – almost anything you can imagine. And, ta-da! You can watch the entire film, right here.

(Pause for getting popcorn…)

Jedi Angry Birds and birthdays

Top: Shop Ruche
Skirt: J Crew
Shoes: Go Jane
Bracelet: H&M

This is not what I wore on my birthday, but earlier in the week, and it’s proof that I finally fixed this top! I bet you guys thought it would be lost in the abyss of my closet forever. Well, proved you (and myself) wrong.

My birthday was very Star Wars heavy! Did you see the cake Joe has made for me? It’s a Jedi Angry Bird!
This is the birthday cake Joe designed for me. :D

My sister gave me a Darth Vader cookie jar and Star Wars cookie cutters. Every time I go near the cookie jar I start singing the Imperial March. I’m sure Joe will get really sick of it very soon!

The one about Star Wars

May the fourth by with you.

I’ve been saying it all day, laughing as I go, getting odd stares from coworkers, friends and even my husband.

But today’s Star Wars day was the best ever because I guest posted on my equally Star Wars obsessed, long-lost twin’s blog, AND my Star Wars post from exactly one year ago is Freshly Pressed on WordPress today!

I wish the weather would’ve cooperated enough for me to take photos with a light saber, but this will have to do instead.

It looks so natural, right?

It’s a Star Wars Christmas

Shirt: Target
PJ pants: gift from my mother-in-law (American Eagle)
Socks: Target (yes, they’re mismatched!)

Happy Christmas Eve! And to those that don’t celebrate Christmas, happy Friday!
I’m taking a brief break from blogging to celebrate with family, but I will be back next week (actually sometime this weekend) with my 2010 year in review posts, discussing my favorite outfits from the past year.

Now I’m off to wrap gifts, watch Star Wars and eat the rest of Jenni’s cookies, while attempting to stay quiet because Joe had to work an overnight shift last night, and is very, very tired.

Hope you have a good holiday!

May the Fourth Be With You!

Yes, I am super huge uber dork. It’s Star Wars Day!

And, simply because I can, I have put together a couple outfits inspired by some of the Star Wars charracters (don’t worry, I won’t add lightsabers. I don’t think most normal people can walk around with them all day and not look crazy. I’ve tried.)

I don’t think my weird little outfits need any explaination. LOL. That is all. May the fourth be with you :) Happy Star Wars Day!!

My super cool holiday weekend

Posted on by

This weekend (starting Thursday) has been really fun!

Thursday, Joe and I both had to work. I got done at noon (thank you Pres. Mark for letting us go early!), Joe got done at 3:00. We went over to his aunt’s house and had dinner with the family. We always do puzzles when we’re up there (they live north of us), which I love, since I can’t really to them at home because Ruckus and Meatloaf would probably either sleep on the puzzle and/or eat the pieces. I don’t really want to risk it!

Friday we got to sleep in a little – we were up at 6:30. We went to his parent’s house first, because we live about five minutes away from them. His younger sister are awesome, so we got to see them first thing.

Then, we went to my parents house. My sister was there (hi Cher!) and my brother and his mom came over around noon. We opened our gifts, give our (lame) gifts out and had a fabulous lunch. Then, around 4 pm, we left to go to Joe’s other aunt’s house to see that side of the family. Around 7 pm, we were both getting really tired. You see, Joe worked 6am-3pm on Wednesday. Then he went back to work at midnight and came home around 3pm on Christmas Eve. We both really needed to sleep.

Yesterday we slept in, which was awesome. I woke up with a stuffy nose and a terrible cough. I have no idea what’s wrong with me, but I think I’m getting sick again. Joe went out to get me medicine while I watched five episodes of Primeval on Netflix online. Then, after we took showers and got dressed we went back over to Joe’s parents house for another family get together (my family is very small- these get-togethers are very different for me).

Anyway, we both got some cool gifts. Cher made me a sweet octopus table, but she couldn’t bring it because it was raining when she left to drive here, so I will just have to go visit her soon and get it :)
I got all six Star Wars movies and Fan Boys (I’m a geek), How I Met Your Mother seasons 1 &2 and The Beatles Rockband, not to mention some awesome clothes.

I don’t really have any photos of anything, because I’m going to mix it all in with the clothes I already have. I wore one of the sweaters last night, so I need to post those pics. But it was a pretty fun weekend in all. My kitties were given a “special” Christmas breakfast and dinner that they LOVED and they are still very happy and lovey and sleeping on me.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to wash some clothes or else all I’m going to be wearing is the new stuff I got for Christmas and PJ pants…
