What Are You Doing for May the 4th

I tried to kick off a conversation about this in the Celebrate Star Wars thread, but it would probably be better to do this as a separate thread.
So what are you doing to celebrate Star Wars Day aka May the 4th?
So far I've gotten the PS4 downloadable version of the old game Bounty Hunter, which deals with how Jango Fett became the basis for the Republic's Clone Army. Comixology is doing a sale of a bunch of the canon comics, so I got the 3rd volumes of Star Wars and Darth Vader, the first collection of the Poe Dameron comic, and the collected edition of the Han Solo miniseries.
I had started the first couple pages of Smuggler's Run, the Han centric middle grade novel, but now that I've got the two collections that come after it I'm going to switch over to Vader Down, Marvel's Star Wars/Darth Vader crossover instead. I'm also wearing my BB-8 shirt.
 
I've watched an episode of TCW (which I would have done anyways since I'm rewatching arcs I want to see), I've read a few chapters of Bloodline (which I started yesterday), but the big thing is watching Episode IV, which I'm starting in a few minutes.
 
Just been to a Star Wars pub quiz, we did very well but lost in a tie break question (name of underwater gungan city in Epi 1, we weren't quick enough) But it was fun

I've read a few chapters of Bloodline (which I started yesterday)

What do you think of Bloodline so far?
 
Burning my fav SW fanedits to disk and creating custom case and disk label art for them.
 
What do you think of Bloodline so far?

I'm about 4 chapters in, and its interesting. Leia is written well, and the New Republic political situation makes sense. There is a secondary character I'm not a huge fan of, another senator, but its early. Its written fairly well so far.
 
I've been spending the past few days getting through The Approaching Storm, the prequel to AOTC by Alan Dean Foster which I recently purchased in order to take advantage of a certain promotional offer. Meanwhile, my copy of Rebel Rising, the Jyn Erso centred YA novel arrived in the mail today.
 
Now that its "Revenge of the 5th", I'll be watching the last few TCW episodes I want to rewatch, and then I'll watch Episode III.
 
I had been working my way through the saga over the past few months. (One of the good points of looking for employment in a new city.) I watched Empire and Jedi on Star Wars Day and Force Awakens on Revenge of the Fifth.
 
I complained (loudly) that Star Wars day is May 25th.

But I also wore a SW shirt and found the theater (and release date) of where I saw Star Wars in 1977. (July 13th!?!?)
