Sorry, I’ve been LOST

February 4, 2010

Basically I’ve been a bad blogger. I have no good excuse.

Well, I have a good excuse for last night. Last night I meant to blog before LOST, but I got so caught up in the LOST anticipation, then the 3 hours of LOST on TV while simultaneously talking with Laura about what was happening on LOST, then the post-LOST euphoria that I just couldn’t squeeze in the blogging.

It went a little something like this:

Laura: 3 MINUTES
Me: ahhhhhhhhhhhh! man, you have noooo idea how insane this is going to be. the stuff i read was crazy
Laura: do not say a thing. or I will hate you forever

Let’s pause here. First of all, yes, we chat about shows we’re watching at the same time from separate, far away states in different time zones.

And yes, I read spoilers. I read spoilers like it’s my job. I’m the person who asks you what the ending of the movie is before we watch it and if you won’t tell me, I’ll look on IMDB. I read the ends of books before the beginnings. Yes, it’s a problem. I JUST LIKE TO KNOW!

Laura doesn’t like to know. Thus, I have to be careful. Because otherwise she won’t be my friend AND she’ll hate me forever. She’s so serious too. This is the girl who wouldn’t answer the phone the day I finished Harry Potter 7 and instead made her boyfriend answer and tell me that she couldn’t talk because she was afraid I would tell her pivotal details.

She should have gotten up early, picked up her reserved copy of the book, and finished it in a few hours like me. Problem solved.

I digress.

I don’t know if you have ever seen LOST, but basically it’s a show full of confusion and stuff you never saw coming, and even if you read the spoilers you’re like HOLY CRAP! WHAT JUST HAPPENED? WHY? WHAT IS GOING ON?!

And no one knows what’s going on. It’s like willingly being high while in a maze while eating ice cream. You’re dazed, you’re confused, you don’t know what’s happening, BUT IT’S SO TASTY.

Examples:

Laura: Im already confused
Me: this is insanity

****

Me: man you are so lucky i keep refraining from telling you the things i know
Laura: HATE FOREVER. BE STRONG
Me: i am, i am

****

Laura: WEIRDNESS!
Me: that is CRAZY
Me: holy shitttttt. holy mother effing shit
Laura: WHO THE HELL IS THAt?

****

Laura: WHY IS EVERYONE DYING 😦

****

So, that’s basically what will happen if you watch LOST. YOUR BRAIN WILL EXPLODE. And you’ll like it.

(And you won’t be able to blog).

Sarah #1 has a Mac and Sarah #2 has a PC. So, while she’s got Ecto (which took her 2 min to download), I’m working out the kinks of Windows Live Writer (which took an hour to download and then restarted my computer which I hate).

We’ll see how this goes.

Anyone ever tried to use ecto for blogging? Sarah #2 found it and suggested I try it for my mac. I’m giving it a shot!!

Testing … one … two … three …

Fondly,
