May the 4th Be with You

May the 4th Be with you is a day that takes after the phrase, “May the Force Be With You,” as this is known as Star Wars Day. Cinco De Mayo is tomorrow, and is about the Mexican war with France. I feel Cinco De Mayo is an excuse for some people to get drunk. As a recovered alcoholic, I know better than to drink anything, even non-alcoholic beer.

Day of the Dead is a long way off, at least six months away, and I want to do something at the cemetery. This is why I need pictures of beloved dead. My uncle Alfredo is now amongst them. This is why I need pictures of the family. My aunt and grandma were artists along with my uncle. I want to start doing this more as a way of using my talents because I have turned writing into a career. This why I think I need some newer hobbies.
