Farewell LOST

Oh LOST, it makes me sad to write about you in past tense. My little LOST group and I went out with a bang. We celebrated in style, watching our fave show on the Big Screen at Central Cinemas in Seattle. The theater was rented out specifically for LOST, so we enjoyed snacks and Dharma wine during the recap, and pizza, popcorn, and treats during the 2-1/2 hour series finale.

Here's our group photo at the Finale, like our t-shirts?

It was a such a great time! I even partook in the LOST trivia competition which got a 10-second segment on the Komo 4 local news - who knew my 10-seconds of fame would be while wearing a LOST inspired t-shirt naming Dharma stations...

I'm sad to realize this is the end, especially since watching this series has been a constant, an anchor in our ever-increasingly busy lives. I'm so glad we got to come together one last time to reminisce and bid farewell to a beloved tradition and show that always inspires curiousity and wonder.

I won't say I'm left without questions, because I do have many. Jacob's brother? Charles Widmore? Dharma Initiative? The sunk island? Are they really all dead? But the connecting stories did bring an element of peace and finality to many character's stories that was comforting.

Your thoughts?

LOST: The End

It's finally here - the end of LOST. It's too surreal, I'm having a hard time believing it's all coming to an end. A group of 8-10 friends and I have been getting together once a week for the past 5 years to watch and discuss the show. We've affectionately referred to this gathering as "Our Little LOST group." It's been a tradition we've settled into, looked forward to, and will surely miss when it's over.

The 2-1/2 hour finale debuts tomorrow night at 9:00 PM. So many questions we hope to God are answered! Debriefing is sure to follow...

Any other LOSTie bloggers out there? How are you feeling about this end of an era?

The Return

It's been 9 long months but the beginning of the end finally arrived. LOST, the final season. Dun Dun DUN!

My friends and I've made a tradition of gathering together to watch. Last night we celebrated chips, guacamole, and other goods pasted with Dharma food labels, played LOST bingo which was pretty hilarious, I highly recommend you try. You'll find yourself rooting for "cry Jack, CRY!" or "Sawyer, take off your shirt," or "John Locke, rub your bald head!!!"

If you're not a LOST fan, there is no way you can possibly understand the obsession. If you are, I'm curious what you thought of last night's premier...Supposedly all our questions will be answered, but it definitely did not feel that way last night, as I walked away with more questions...(sigh). Can't wait for next week!

LOST lust

I admit it, I am obsessed with the TV show LOST. If you're also a fan, you are definitely aware of the love triangle (well, now "love square") mounting this season between Jack, Kate, Sawyer, and Juliet. Personally, I've always been a fan of the Sawyer/Kate pairing, but hey, that's just me. I came across this lusty LOST photo shoot on Entertainment Weekly of Matt Fox (Jack) and Evangeline Lilly (Kate) prancing around in the jungle. Premonition much?...images/ew

My Evening

First and foremost. The 2-hour LOST season 4 Finale. My fellow LOSTy's are I are gathering at a friend's "hatch" to watch this special event on the projector screen. SO EXCITED!!
