Well, let's just get the LOST conversation out of the way. I was disappointed, yet I don't know what I was expecting.
Hubby and I had dinner at my parents house, then settled on the couch for three hours of LOST goodness, only to yell at the TV during every break for commercial, "STUPID!!!" I really don't know what I was expecting... certainly not two alternate realities. Certainly not a near opening shot of the island UNDERWATER for who knows how long (very poor CGI by the way). Certainly not Desmond on flight 815 and then suddenly he's NOT on it anymore... Certainly not a soap opera return to the living by Sayid. Certainly not a cryptic message from Juliet beyond the grave, claiming that the hydrogen bomb worked. Even though in one reality we see that it DID work, all of their lives are still going to pot anyway, and in this life, Jack and Kate won't be together and that's just TRAGIC!!!!! (At least they brought Boone, nka Damon from The Vampire Diaries, back!)
And I've heard from interviewed cast members that they still don't even understand how it's all going to tie together, so I'll be patient. :::Taps foot until next Tuesday:::

He's like his own plot generator. Follow his blog for a daily dose of hilarity and unexpected inspiration. He even helped me come up with some scenes and dialogue from my novel Between the Letters!!
