Permanent Bedhead

I'm thankful that I have never had any part of my head stitched up. No bad cuts because of childish antics or bar brawls -- just a round head. However, a rather peculiar spot on the right side of my head between my forehead and scalp looks like a long, straight scar. And I've wondered how long I've had it.

As silly as it sounds, but I believe all of my twenty-nine years of sleeping on my right side caused this. Call it permanent bedhead if you like. Well, since I've slept many a night on my left side as well, I wonder why I don't have anything on there. And there's nothing on the back side of my head since I've never been able to sleep for more than two hours on my back.

On top of this, the only time the mark is really noticeable is when I wake up in the morning. Every time I look in the mirror, there it is. It's not like I want it removed or anything. I just wonder how in the world I got it.

I was not aware of this until I was in college, and frankly, does it really matter about the twist or the context of the day for fans? I think it does, as history has a way of repeating itself. These eleven films (along with a couple of animated shows, a holiday special, and a couple of live action shows) continue to mean something, even when they come out to mixed reviews. The Star Wars saga itself is bigger than those reactions, and I’m happy to see the saga transcend generations. I’m only a few days removed from seeing The Rise of Skywalker for the first time. I thought it was a fantastic film in the Skywalker saga. And since I’m not a filmmaker or a producer, I’m not one to make a bold claim about how I would have done it better. Because Star...
