Despite the enthusiasm of several of my students, I think that I'm going to wait to watch the Bad Batch (whose first episode was released this morning in honor of Star Wars Day) sometime during this summer. While the boys would probably like it, I don't think Janelle would appreciate watching the cartoon with me, especially since she hasn't seen The Clone Wars series. I've heard it was good, so it does give me something to look forward to watching.
As for watching, I had fun cheering Connor on as he ran the 400 meter race in our Borough prelims today. While he did not qualify for the finals outright, he did well enough to be an alternate. I could tell he was pleased with the results, earning a new personal record in the process. I also think that he is happier only having to worry about the 1600m on Saturday.
Although today did not contain any massive celebratory gestures on my part, I still enjoy this kind of faux-holiday as it reminds me of something I enjoy while connecting me with my culture of nerds and geeks from around the world.
May the Fourth be with you!
