"Lost" is over but I'm still probably going to be talking and thinking about it a few months from now. I actually started watching Season 1 again with new eyes. With everything I know now...it's exciting!
What did everybody think of the finale? (I say "everybody" like anybody actually reads this. Buaha!) I was hoping they wouldn't settle for the "we're all dead" ending.....but they did it in a way that was just lovely in my opinion. So as I understand it.....EVERYTHING that happened on the island actually was real. The sideways reality was just some sort of purgatory they all created for themselves after the characters died on their own terms....and they needed everybody to "wake up" (as in: remember their time on the island) in order to move on. Some of them died on the island....some died back on the mainland. I could go into detail about what theories I've been thinking about late at night while coughing my lungs out (I'm still sick. Boo!) but for the anti-Lost people, I will save you your bewilderment. I will miss being addicted to the confusion that Lost brought me! But I always thought it over and came to my own conclusions......which made me not confused anymore. That's what I loved about "Lost". We weren't spoon fed anything. We Americans always want a straight answer to everything. Leaving a little mystery and room to actually think for ourselves is very refreshing when it comes to television shows. "I never understood trekkies until I became a Lostie!" Sooo true! =P
On Saturday, I finally saw "Wicked" in San Francisco. It was absolutely positively wonderful! I was a little disappointed that Eden Espinosa wasn't going to play Elphaba (I'd heard great things about her!) but I was quickly impressed with Alyssa Fox! What a beautiful voice! She really rocked "Defying Gravity". I was fist pumping during that whole scene! I am trying to save up my money to go at least one more time before the last show in September. Maybe for my birthday? =)
For some reason I can't shake this chest cold. I've been congested and coughing for almost 2 weeks. It's so annoying. I haven't been able to exercise or put my Jillian Michaels DVD to use. I'm so bummed. When (if?) I actually get better I will be back to square one. I want to lose like 10 pounds by my birthday but I don't see that happening. C'est la vie. I haven't really been super sick in awhile.....just the occasional allergies or a cold...so I guess it's just my time to feel miserable. I hope it doesn't turn into bronchitis or pneumonia! You're supposed to get a lot of sleep and drink lots of liquids.....but I don't know how I can do that with 2 little boys running around...not to mention when I drink a lot of liquids all I do is end up peeing every 5 minutes. It's annoying! I don't know how this turned into a rant post! Let's end on a happier note.....
I think I'm going to continue with Season 1 of Lost and decide which episode is my favorite. Barrett and Owen are making a mess on the floor with Cheerios......ughhhh....gotta go deal with that. Later taters!
