OK, both Jennifer and I watch too much TV.
And sometimes that bites us in the butt, as it did this am, when we both dragged ourselves out of bed after watching Lost until early this am.
But unlike other times, when we just watch too much TV and should read a book instead, this time, we planned for it. She at first was going to have me call in sick for her, but changed her mind when she realized that she would have a chance to drive the car to school.
But as we watched first the Lost wrap up, and then the actual Lost (not counting the pilot this weekend, that's coming on 8 hours of Lost) we were glad for the commitment. I think that they ending is good (not as good as MASH) but good nevertheless. I was crying, she was looking sad, a and we'll miss our weird Lost fix every week.
This blog, and it's comments in the NYT, has a pretty good wrap up.
This blog will cover the collision of two cultures - parents and teen children. They don't understand us, and view us as spoilers or walking ATMs (adults with teen malcontents?) We are left wondering what happened to our cute cuddly kids of a few years back, and when they may return. If ever.

Break out the smoke monster mojitos!
It's time for lost at 8 p.m. tonight.
And fortunately, my hubby the non-Lostie in the family has a PR meeting after work, so he'll be AWOL until the show is almost half-way through. So now questions about smoke monsters, time travel, Ben's lineage, John being alive (no one really dies on Lost), Jack being a dick, then a hero, then a dick, etc. And of course, since Jennifer's watching with me, the mojitos will be non-alcoholic of course.
She's even turning off her cell for the event, so you know this is quite an occasion.

Lost countdown
Only three more days. And we're banning my hubby from the TV room when the new, and last season of Lost comes on. He's not allowed.

Losties unite! And my hubby ain't in the club
Jennifer and I were gleefully reading up on the upcoming , and last season of Lost, when a promo comes on the TV for our said favorite show.
"I don't know," says hubby. "This show has gone off the rails and it's just turned too weird."
"Just turned too weird? Heck inthe first episode they had the others, a smoke monster and a polar bear on a tropical isle. What part has gotten weirder than that? And besides you don't watch it consistently..you can't do that with this show," says I.
"When I do watch I can't understand it," he shoots back, not realizing that Jennifer and I aren't going to let him win this.
"When you watch it," Jennifer jumps in. "You can't do that with this show. You have to watch it get out."
