she's the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy

**waves** Hi new friends!!

Okay, I feel like life is settling back to normal after the trip. There is still a small pile of laundry on the floor that will get done Sunday, but I found some time tonight to sit and read LJ so that was nice.

Tomorrow we are going to RenFest! We missed it last year because of the buying a house/getting married. Believe me, I was very upset! But we are sneaking it in tomorrow, the final weekend. I just want my TURKEY LEG! And maybe a bee sting (hard cider + mead = yum! You don't worry about what time it is when you're in medieval England!)

BIGGEST NEWS OF THE DAY - DONALD GLOVER WILL BE LANDO! I went from having no interest in the Han Solo prequel movie to being totally invested.

Things that everyone already saw but I'm just now seeing - GUARDIAN OF THE GALAXY VOL 2 TEASER! I'm feeling good about this, mostly because it is the same team as the first movie and that feels right. No change in director or anything like that. And I like that the trailer is just about the group, not trying to show me a million new villains or subplots etc. The first movie was such a pleasant surprise.

I've never been into makeup, but I see there is a #nomakeup movement going on right now. One of my favorite artists just posted on her blog about how to make your own natural face powder. Seems legit. I'm actually kinda tempted to try it.

Round 87 sign ups are open for character20n20 and I'm trying to brainstorm who I want to focus on this time. Last time I did Rey. Almost feel like I should do a TV show character so I have more images to choose from...anyway, I have some time to ponder.

Anyway, going to bed now because gotta get up early for RenFest - the actually had big issues with the car line last weekend (people were stuck for hours in traffic) so we're going to try to get their right when it opens.

Toodles!

I like that they cast Donald Glover, I know he was the fan choice for Lando hopefully it's a good portrayal.

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

Yeah, now it is in the hand of the writers (though I feel like Glover is smart enough to speak up if he doesn't agree with some choices)

I am mixed, I wanted so badly for BJ Britt to be Lando but I think Donald will do a good job so I am not complaning

I AM SO EXCITED FOR GOTG!

Have fun today!

I love Guardians of the Galaxy. I hope the sequel is good too. The teaser had a similar feel to the original.

Have fun at RenFest :D

I love Ren Fests! Bee stings are so delicious. Have fun!

Have a blast at Renfest! One thing I don't love about where I live is the mediocre renfest here. I grew up near Bristol and it was amazing, with tons of shows and interesting new things all the time. We'd go several times every year and there wasn't enough time to do everything over a few visits. The one here the shows are exactly the same every year, line for line and the horses in the joust are always lame. Takes the fun right out.

I'm staying away from teasers/trailers/spoilers for Gotg2, but I am very excited for it.

Did you get married, Sam? Congrats! :-)

Oh yeah, the Han Solo movie has suddenly become more exciting! Donald Glover love! <3

I was surprised when I saw the GotG teaser because I expected them to wait longer before showing us anything, at least until the release of Dr Strange.

OMG...turkey legs are the REASON. YUS...and owls (if they have them) love owls...

*HUGS*

It's such a good time to be alive and a Star Wars fan :')

Also, love your Rey icons. I've saved a few and will credit you.

*almost spits out the water she's drinking* THERE'S A HAN SOLO PREQUEL!? WHAT.. WHY.. HOW... I NEVER SAW NEWS ON MY REDDIT. WHAT!?

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

Tsk Tsk! The link I posted to Club Jade is my go-to Star Wars source. It's been around for ages and they love Star Wars but they don't worship it? If you know what I mean. Anyway, I highly suggest following them or signing up for the emails, you'll always be in the know. :)

Thank you :> Will do so I won't be much of a nerf-herder haha

[blakmagjick]

I'm SO EXCITED for GotG2!!!

[meathiel]

I can understand you being upset for not making it to RenFest. I didn't make it to any this year due to being on holiday, the weather or not having somebody to go with ... ugh ...

[geckoholic]

The GOTG 2 trailer was SO FUN. :D I hope the second movie is gonna be as good as the first.

I'm soooooo excited for Donald! I love him and I think he'll be a great Lando! <3
