so long, lost!



Thoughts or opinions on the last season and series finale? I've heard a lot over the last few months. This show generated more heated debated than any other I've watched. It's followers are passionate. I have friends that missed maybe two episodes of the last season and are legitimately pissed off because they were lost (pun intended) during the finale. Something was mentioned about "alienating your fans," but I still made the point that ABC offers the entire season online for your viewing pleasure.

While I still have a sense of confusion about it all, I think it was wrapped up neatly enough. There might be loopholes, but there are no loose ends. I respect them for not making the island a dream or a version of purgatory. That would have been too easy, too obvious. Yet, they didn't go completely off the deep end and pull a "it was all a dream" a la Dallas. I'm satisfied, even if other hardcore fans aren't.

don't judge

Ugh, just spilled my glass of wine because of the condensation on the outside of the glass! Slippery devil! Seemed like no major damage at first. The only prized item in the line of fire was my phone, but that was functioning normal. I believe the case saved it. After reapplying the case (without checking to make sure if it was dry) my phone is now acting up. Soooooooooo it's now chilling in a vat of rice. Let's cross our fingers.

Ooooooooooo I do love my droid. And I so do NOT want to pay my $50 insurance fee.

On a somewhat, in some way, related note. The boyfriend is watching The Dark Knight while attempting to fall asleep. Due to my recent phone trauma and loss of wine I have resumed my insomniac tendencies. I had little desire to watch aforementioned movie, but after the agitation of the pinot grigio flood I decided to depart and find my entertainment on other TVs. Sleep will not be happening any time soon.

Please remind me, my phone may very well be alright and if not, it's not the end of the world!!! And it was an honest accident! Oh the judgment inherent in drowning (exaggeration!) your beloved phone in a glass of wine. Oi vey!

i live in a topless bar?

Aside from our electric bill's steady increase, there are other "issues" with the current living situation. What's with me and living situations in Hawaii? Is it me? I don't think I'm overreacting or being irrational.

The estrogen half of our roommate couple, already prone to walking around in panties that are 3 sizes too small so that her lady bits are not left to anyone's imagination (or worse, short dresses without panties underneath) has now taken to walking around in short shorts and a lovely topless ensemble. She always has her hand wrapped across her somewhat generous rack, holding them up and shielding herself from a distinct R rating, but she is still topless...in the middle of the afternoon...for no reason...while everyone is wandering around the house. Why???????????? Mind you, she's not hot. She's over 6 foot, overweight (not that I'm the pot calling her black), and a Norwegian looking giantess. She could take out small children with one fell swoop.

I am no prude. Walking into the kitchen in your underwear at 3am to get ice cream is one thing. Topless afternoons are another. Not that I really care. They're boobs. It's just random. I care more about the electric bill than this because it has a more direct effect on me. The boyfriend has no interest in a topless Amazon roommate, so it's not a jealousy thing. I just don't get it. It's like she's trying to prove something. The girl is strange. From a strange planet called Minnesota.

the lights are on, but nobody is home

Again with the lights being left on?!?!?!?! Is it that hard? I quite obviously walked intentionally from the kitchen to the bathroom (in plain view of their open bedroom door) to do nothing but flick the switch off. I avoided making direct eye contact, as I figured that would cross the extreme passive aggression line, but I was very obvious about my efforts.

Mild passive aggression is better, maybe not more mature or effective, but better. Or at least that's what I tell myself.

no not sun and jin

Oh, Lost. Perhaps your most shocking and emotional episode to date, although it's hard to judge the first four seasons as I viewed them in rapid succession on DVD. The tears were nonstop for the last 15 minutes of the episode. I really wish they could have killed off anyone else.
