h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

And I have Princess Leia hanging over my shoulder right now watching me type this. And trying to tell me what to type. And will get chased off if she doesn't stop it soon.
I think the whole princess-thing has gotten to her head. Well she mustn't expect any royal treatment from me!

Well, I'm at home now.
Took a while for me to get here coz the docter was sorting out my meds, forms, etc...
But I'm here now!

They moved the old lady out of my room yesterday (party on!).

And dear little R2D2 came to say hi to me this morning. He's one of the kids that was playing Star Wars yesterday. He wanted to know if Obi-Wan was coming outside today. So I told him that Obi-Wan was leaving in a while, and the poor kid almost cried. We'd made up the story as we went along (though Gordon and Prov kept correcting me anyway - s!) coz I didn't know it very well and so R2D2 had been my robot instead of Luke's.
Then Prov arrived at my room trailing little Luke behind her, also all upset because his Leia was leaving
Luckily Vader works there, so they'll have him for company.

In case you missed the other thread and are wondering what on earth I'm on about, yesterday I got roped into helping sort out a star-wars game with two kids who decided they both couldn't be Luke but neither wanted to be Vader. And my crutches would make good lightsabers so they told me.
So Prov got myself and Gordon (male nurse and Prov's bf) involved. She was Leia, he was Vader and I was Obi-Wan Kenobi (sp?).
It got mighty funny when little Luke wanted to whisk his Leia away...

So we messed around for a bit, using appropriate quotes from the story (that's actually very difficcult if you've never seen it and have to rely on jokes that you've heard), but I impressed myself with the whole "May the Force be with you" effort, while Gordon potted around feeling tremors in the Force.
Except when Luke was dying though and I started on "By the sands of Utah...", Gordon told me I had the wrong movie. Apparently I was supposed to be telling him that the Force will always be with him, yada yada yada. I still think the whole avenging by the sands of Utah sounded more impressive.

And now Leia dearest has just had me rego through this changing all the little f's to capital F's in Force.

God I can't believe at my age I'm out playing Star Wars with 7yr olds!

And I've got two weeks left of no JD, and then you'll see how strong the Force is with this one!

A-ha!!

And I thought you were resting yesterday

The force is obviously strong in this one.

You may have found your calling in life - plaything for 7 year olds - finally, someone you can communicate with on your own level


Welcome home - just remember that you still have to take care of yourself

*pokes Feisor for that*

There's nothing like Star Wars and pretend light sabers to bring out the child in everyone

DUCK! Blatant plug coming...






A16028714





You can get up again now.

(vroosh, vroom, clang, fizz, vroosh)

*dives for cover as plug flies overhead*

Got that one

hhhhhh..fssssssh...hhhhhh..fssssssh...
LUKE, I AM YOUR FATHER.
hhhhhh..fssssssh...hhhhhh..fssssssh...
YOU WILL JOIN ME.
hhhhhh..fssssssh...hhhhhh..fssssssh...
IT IS INEVITABLE
hhhhhh..fssssssh...hhhhhh..fssssssh...

And with that I've used up all of my relevant star wars quotes.

May the Force be with you...

Although according to the kids yesterday, lightsabers went "bowwwwwwwwwowwwwwwwwwowwwwwwwwwwwowwwwwwwwowwwww"
