September is rapidly coming to a close, and with the new blue ray release of the Star Wars series work looks like the Death Star. I'm a big Star Wars fan. My wife is a Trekkie. Some of you may say "what's the difference?" and others will understand. Jamie will watch Star Trek movies and television shows, and sometimes even read a book or two, and that's about it. No conventions, no collecting memorabilia, nothing really geeky.
I'm a self-professed geek. I visit Star Wars websites. I like collecting the toys. I say dumb quotes from the movies. Yeah it's really nerdy. Yeah I could really care less. She just rolls her eyes at me. She says she doesn't care but I get the impression she is wondering what is wrong with me. I'm not saying there isn't something wrong with me, I'm simply saying, if it is wrong I don't want to be right. To her credit she is very tolerant.
So anyways, since my wife doesn't want to hear it, I may very well start expressing my gusto for all things geeky all over this blog.
So anyways here's my first R2D2 astromech droid I've drawn since I was a little kid. Star Wars appeals to me visually. It makes me want to draw and illustrate in a way I haven't felt in a long time. I'd love to see some sympathetic posts on here, I need some good excuses as to why I need to start a Lego mini figure collection!
Hope everyone in cyberland is doing spiffy. I'll write more frequently now, I promise.
