#about me #2024 mood #Batuu Bounding #I've been planning on doing Savi's on our Batuu trip but I'm just not feeling the saber hilts themselves #I want something sleek and fairly smooth and relatively light that I can spin with #that is so not what's going on with the Savi's sabers #so just as we're getting down to the wire here I thought why not look online and see what's out there that more matches my vision #and I found one on Amazon. that can arrive on Sunday. that checks all the boxes of what I was looking for #and it's like. a quarter the price of Savi's #I have heard only wonderful things about the Savi's *experience* but mixed things on the sabers themselves #when I started out on this plan to Batuu-bound for my birthday Savi's sounded like a fun addition to the day #but since then I've come up with a whole Star Wars character with a backstory and a personality and a LIFE #and Savi's is not her path. absolute respect and love to everyone (including my family members) for whom Savi's was the right choice #but I am E X C I T E about the saber I picked out #not sure if I'll take the blade to Disney with me but I'm going to try to rig up the hilt to attach to my belt at least #see kids? getting older is really just about being able to buy yourself the toys you wanted as a kid #with no one to tell you no #and if you're lucky a supportive spouse who yells DO IT! when you doublecheck your instincts lol #hey one minute to go until b i r t h d a y
