Not

I'm not awake yet. I don't think I'll be fully awake at any time today. Two hours of sleep just doesn't do it for me.

We all know the reason I'm short on sleep, Revenge of the Sith. Is my deprived state justified? Yes. George did not let me down. The three-hour queue to get into the movie was not spent in vain. Here is my list of reasons why I am not at all disappointed in my late night/early morning Star Wars experience:
  1. We—meaning the office crew plus the ten-year-old—were able to snag some decent seats together.
  2. No one in my immediate vicinity got up during the movie to pee— a plus at any movie.
  3. I did not sit in a state of utter discomfort the last hour because I had to pee.
  4. I bought the large tub of popcorn, and actually got the free refill.
  5. ClonedHotdog smuggled in candy and kept my child in constant supply of sugar.
  6. The opening scene was awesome.
  7. Hayden Christensen did not blow. I actually thought of him as Anakin in this one and not as the guy who replaced Jake Lloyd.
  8. Ewan McGregor is Obi-Wan Kenobi.
  9. All the questions I needed George to answer, were answered. I didn't like one of the answers, but at least I know now.
  10. Hayden Christensen did not blow. The Anakin/Padme scenes worked this time for me.
  11. The final scenes weren't cheesy.

Nap time starts now.
