A look at today’s Edmonton weather by Environment Canada.
Happy Star Wars day! I’m going to be honest, I’m not a hardcore fan so please don’t quiz me with movie trivia or ask me how I feel about how the last movie ended. I have seen all the movies, more times than I’d like to admit. I have two young sons that absolutely adore Star Wars. Although, I will be bold and say that I actually enjoyed the Mandalorian. That was a fun show!
I wouldn’t say I’m your stereotypical nerd. I dabble at best. May the fourth is just a fun day to celebrate movies and that is something I can get behind. I would be lying if I didn’t say that when the Marvel trailer dropped yesterday I got tears in my eyes when we hit the end font and it said see you at the movies. How many amazing moments have we enjoyed sitting in a dark theatre, buttery popcorn in your lap and completely engulfed in a story. I miss that.
So for today when I woke up to sunny skies, and not the gloom I was expecting, I decided today was going to be a great day. Maybe I’ll watch a movie in honour of all the great flicks that I love but first, I must dress my son up as a stormtrooper to go to school.
