Something Lighter - After LOST

If you were not an avid fan of ABC's Lost, this post will probably not make any sense to you. But those of you who did watch Lost, perhaps you can identify.

Things I've discovered or done since Lost ended two weeks ago:
1. Children? I have children?
2. Vacuumed 500 square feet of months-old sawdust. (really)
3. Primed 48 (blankety-blank) bookshelves. (really - I have the back trauma to prove it!)
4. Attended 4 baseball games in stifling heat and the threat of storms.
5. Watched it rain 8 or 9 inches (had to be).
6. Thanks to all the rain, mowed the yard 27 times. (minor exaggeration)
7. Realized that Star Trek:TNG is sooo 1980's. It was even 80's during the 90's.
8. Checked EW.com and Doc Jensen's Twitter page twice a day out of habit.
9. Rewatched the Lost finale with those useless pop-up notes from ABC, that only seem to say the utterly obvious.
10. Resisted the urge to run out the back porch screaming "WAAALLLLLTTTTT!!!!"
In closing, in honor of the contributions of the Dharma Initiative to the island mystery, a closing video from the Hanso Foundation, courtesy Jimmy Kimmel Live:


Sigh. Time to "move on." But it was fun. What a great, deeply thought provoking show.
