Watching The Empire Strikes Back for the first time in years & I’d forgotten what a delight Yoda is. So muppety, delightful goofy old mentor, so not here for Luke’s BS. 🎥

Between supplements & prescriptions, I swallow 24 pills every day, take 2 tinctures, 1 chewable/dissolving lozenge, 2 powders, & 1 nasal spray. This is what I do just to attempt to achieve homeostasis, before sleep, diet, hydration, exercise, & environment even come into play.

Wasn’t sure how I would like it, given the responses I’d seen. I decided going into it that I would have fun. For the first 30 minutes or so, I thought, “Uh oh, am I NOT going to have fun?” Then things picked up and I DID have fun, but I also teared up because Carrie Fisher, because speeches about hope and working together and not being alone, because fan service services me, a fan.

Carrie Fisher is gone. But “what she stood for, what she fought for… that’s not gone.” 🎥
