I've been thinking lately, am I too old for these plastic lightsabers? Now, don't get me wrong, I love the thrill of imagining being Anakin in the deadlock duel against Obi-Wan, or being Obi-Wan fighting against Dooku. But seriously, am I growing up or just denying my inner child?

My best friend and I have always had pretend lightsabers, rather it be the Hasbro light-ups, or just broken pipe laying behind the house. Today I got to thinking.

And now, I come to the conclusion, "Heck no!" It's a part of my childhood, and there will always be sore fingers to show it. I am going to hang on to the thrill that I experience whenever the lightsabers clash.

I guess the real point of this entry is to let those that feel the same way know that they are not alone, and that you should not give something up, just because you are 'growing up.'
