At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend I don't care if you're not here with me
-- (don't go back to) Rockville [R.E.M.]
I hold a lightsaber at night, instead of a teddybear. I hold rocks at night, instead of a teddybear. I used to hold a grungy old Birk.
...The lightsaber was given to me by Darkside. Well, no. That's not entirely correct, and I have to keep this straight for the record.
The lightsaber that was given to me by Darkside got broken. It was in the wrong place at the wrong time and got sat on and utterly crunched. Lightsabers and squooshy couches do that, if sat on at the wrong angle. Especially when there's a bunch of other junk on the couch too. Votania was given a lightsaber too, by Darkside, and when she saw what had happened to mine, she gave me the one she'd been given.
Passing the torch.
Occasionally, when I ought to be asleep, usually when I'm not the only one in the room, I fling my arms and legs out to all sides, brandishing the lightsaber up in the air, and yell: "Lightsaber!!" -- and then go right back to sleep. Or near enough sleep. Then I hold conversations with people, usually with Darkside. I do have to learn German one of these days...

That's so dementedly cute.
Yay lightsaber, though! That's just really inspiring in a funky way, and it's something I can see myself doing a few years ago for completely different reasons. (I was velly velly obsessed with Darth Vader then, and had a Darth Vader costume which I frequently wore places just to see how people would react . . . even funnier when you understand I'm rather young, about 5'6", and not very butch-looking.)
never heard those two words that close together before...
You see, the wedding march starts. Piano player. Suddenly, Darth Vader appears, points hand at piano player. Piano player grabs throat, chokes, falls off piano bench. Darth Vader marches out, sets down boom box, hits Play, and I march down the aisle to the Imperial March.
If the person I'm marrying doesn't like the idea ... then I shouldn't be marrying them.
Re: never heard those two words that close together before...
Um, and if you haven't heard "dementedly cute" before, you need to go to a con at which people are doing odd sleep-deprived things with aforesaid plush Cthulhus. Na!

...but if you're in the area when/if I ever do get married, feel free to pitch in...
if I ever get married, it's going to be one fucked-up affair.
