Now I just gotta figure out how this lightsaber works. There's only one button that allegedly changes the color and sounds. It's really loud. There are all sorts of samples, along with the typical lightsaber buzz. Tara got me one that is akin to a katana hilt, which is very nice. There was one of those 'instruction' cards with a QR that just led to the website which wasn't very helpful. Saberforge lightsabers are allegedly battle worthy and it says in their materials that they can withstand combat with Kendo shinai and HEMA nylon wasters, but the blade is held in by a tiny screw and doesn't go very deep into the hilt. We'll see. I haven't assembled it fully. I'll wait until I get home for that.
We hit Lofty Coffee in Little Italy this morning. So freakin good. Our fav breakfast joint. I had the poached eggs with avocado and a coconut milk cap. It's dog friendly because it's basically outdoors, but we kept Yuki in the car to get him used to the idea. He did great. I wonder if I'll ever return there. I imagine I'll be back for SDCC - I hope so - but it's a decent hike out to Lofty from the convention center and SDCC is already a lot of walking. We'll see. SDCC may be completely different when it happens again.
We'll be taking Yuki over to Tara's apt. She and her apartment mate Bri have set up a dog sitter for Yukz & Bottles for the graduation. We'll walk there from the She-Rat-On, but they will drive with Bri's grandmother and brother (her grandmother doesn't walk far).
After the graduation, we have reservations at Piazza 1909 in La Jolla for the two graduates, us and Bri's family.
If interested, Tara is part of Eleanor Roosevelt College (ERC) which has commencement at 1PM - broadcast live here: https://commencement.ucsd.edu/ Keynote speaker is Alicia Garza, one of the founders of the Black Lives Matter Global Network.
