Happy Lost Day!!

Happy Lost Day! That's how I've greeted my bff on days that contained that wonderously fab television series Lost since she got me addicted to the show about three years ago. I remember it well (editor's note: read with an echoey voice) that summer day some three years ago . . . I had just had outpatient surgery and was happy, happy, happy (drugs are a wonderful thing!). I felt fine (really fine, actually . . . ) but was under doctor's orders to lay on the couch for a week, so my bestie showed up with a fat folder full of Lost DVDs. I had never watched the show, but spent that week watching episode after episode, one right after the other. I lusted after Sawyer, was impressed by Sayid, and fantasized about what it would be like to be in Kate's handcuffs - ahem, I mean, shoes. Yeah, that's what I meant. When each episode was over, I would happily shout "Bad Robot!" and prepare for the next episode. Ah, yes, that was a wonderful week . . .

OK, you can stop reading with that echoey voice now.

We're back in 2010, and there's only 2 episodes of Lost left. EVER. I'm really looking forward to tonight, and seriously hope to get some answers that make more sense than some campy light in a cave. I have faith in the writers. They have carried me along for three years, inspired me to read more and to research things I never thought I would research (slave ships, Egyptian mythology, etc.). I played the online games, was sooooo disappointed to learn that I was unable to join Lost University (it sux to not have a blu-ray player yet), and watched every episode live. I've even missed writers group meetings because Lost was on - now that's serious commitment, folks.

So, tonight I look forward to the next to the last episode with longing and sadness. I'm excited to see what happens (Please tell me Sayid isn't gone for good! Please tell me that there's more to that cave with light than we saw last week! Please don't introduce any new characters!), and I'm excited to get answers, but I am oh, so sad, to see such a gripping, thought-provoking series come to an end.

By the way, I've wanted a tattoo for ages. Thought seriously about getting the numbers tattooed on my hip or something to remind me of this exciting "journey" by BFF introduced me to. Or maybe the Dharma symbol. Or a little bunny. If you were to get a Lost tattoo, what would it be?
