May The Fourth Be With You…Again
The next best thing to our Anniversary and Connor’s birthday is May the Fourth. As much as we 🥰💖😍LOVE😍💖🥰 Star Trek, we also love Star Wars and all things Sci-Fi. How can you go wrong with a Sci-Fi Holiday?
Power Corrupts
The story being told in ‘Star Wars’ is a classic one. Every few hundred years, the story is retold because we have a tendency to do the same things over and over again. Power corrupts, and when you’re in charge, you start doing things that you think are right, but they’re actually not. ~George Lucas
One wonders if they actually think they’re doing the right thing or if they’re just trying to see how much they can get away with before the country erupts into open revolt.
It’s quite disheartening.
In the meantime, I’ve got plenty to keep me occupied and no energy to do it.
I’m still not getting a very good night’s sleep.
I thought it might be because I was getting up early to get back at it.
Nope.
I tried sleeping extra last night and I’m just as knackered as if I had only slept an hour or two.
I don’t know what’s wrong but it can’t go on much longer like this. I can’t get anything done in this state.

What more needs to be said?
Oh, she’s the one in charge of the new Ministry of Truth. Good luck with that…
Exercise
Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. ~Joseph Addison
All the author sites and chats say it’s important to be as avid a reader as one is a writer.
It’s a way to study what’s working in prose and to get an idea of what sells.
Reading is to my eyes what a squirt of lemon juice is to an open cut. ~Me
Problem is, I’m still not 100% on the vision front.
I’m fine for walking around and driving places, but stuff that requires serious concentration is still incredibly uncomfortable.
It doesn’t make it very easy to stay awake when my eyes want to be shut.
However, it doesn’t seem to help me to get any rest if I go ahead and close them.
🥒 It’s quite a pickle. 🥒
Even so, I’ve still got things that absolutely need doing and I’m trying to squeeze them in while I have moments of lucidity.
Use The Force Luke…
Unfortunately, my midichlorian count is quite low and I’m not up to superhuman feats of niftiness.

In fact, I’m not up to basic human feats of base mediocrity at this point. I just need a decent night’s sleep.
That’s it for me today. May the Fourth be with you because I’d rather just go forth into the sheets. 🛌🏼
