Believe it or not I am smiling in this picture….I was however VERY sick when this picture was taken. I had the “MUMPS” if you are not sure what that is, follow the link. Why am I smiling? Well it was Christmas morning, and I had in my possession the Millennium Falcon, the fastest ship in the galaxy. I was the ONLY kid in the street with this, and at that very moment, my life was complete. I was so excited to find this picture, because it proves that I actually owned an original piece of Star Wars history. I loved that ship. If I had it today I could probably retire.Being sick with the mumps sucks, I remember trying to eat a snickers, my first snickers ever (they were called Marathons in Ireland). I could not open my mouth to eat it….how sad is that? I did however have my Star Wars toys, and life was good for that very reason.
