I finally got to see Star Wars the Force Awakens this past Sunday. I was asked on Facebook what took me so long. The answer was simple, I refused to go until I could see it with the family. And, getting our schedules to sync up is a lot harder than I thought it would be. That's okay; it was worth the wait. It was exactly what I needed a modern Star Wars movie to be.
I didn't cry sharing the moment with theBoy, as I was afraid I might. But, there's something really special about being able to put the armrest up and revisit your childhood with your kid snuggled up in your lap. Touseling his hair while Stormtroopers stomped across the screen.
And yes, for as many enjoyable scenes as there were in the movie, I was smitten with TR-8R (FN-2199 "Nines").
