May the Fourth — May 4, 2020

I’m a Star Wars fan, born and raised.

I also enjoy a good pun.

So I think it’s great that there’s an outpouring of Star Wars-ness on May the 4th, even if at times it feels a bit like St Patrick’s Day when suddenly EVERYBODY claims they have a little Irish in them.

Nonetheless, any excuse to celebrate a saga set long ago in a galaxy far, far away… well… I have a good feeling about that.

This year I signed up for a virtual half-marathon… Covid-19 may have disrupted racing events near and far, but the running must go on!

I will say I used to be better at running. Unlike in past days gone by when I would trudge out for a half-marathon, I didn’t feel like I could keep going once I hit 13.1 miles. Truth be told, I started struggling long before then, but needed to finish what I had started.

Still, a great disturbance in the running force continues to plague me.

But that’s for another time… instead, here’s a Baby Yoda drawing.

May the Fourth be with you… today. And May the Fifth bring us tacos.
