On May 4th, I got on Facebook after I dropped my boys off at school. I saw a few of my friends wishing people a "Happy Star Wars Day" and a bunch of people saying "May the Fourth be with you." At first I thought there was some inside joke about a speech impediment... you know, force, forth. ;) Then I wondered, no, maybe the forth of something... but, may the fourth of "what" be with you? It didn't dawn on me until later (When my sweet thang kindly told me it was May the 4th... like the date) what they were talking about. I laughed, and then channeled the force (or the 4th), because this was the day I was going to tackle my very own sculpted Darth Vader head. I was a little freaked out.
I figured it would either look like Vader, or Java the Hut.
Here is the structure of his big old head before the carving began!
And just for laughs, I had to throw this in! This is classic.... 5 year old helps mom make frosting. Gets over ambitious when dumping sugar into mixer, and nails mom's foot and leg. Mom at first says "OH NO!" Then after .30 seconds, asks frantic son who is saying "I'm sorry! I'm sorry--- I will clean you off!" to get the camera thus confusing the heck out of him... "What? You think this is funny?"he asks me... Umm... Yes. Yes I do.
