Tomorrow is a big day. A day when we will begin to see some of the mysteries unravel. We’ll find out if Juliet is still alive, if Jack, Kate, Sawyer, Jin and Hurley are back where they began, if time got rebooted, if Sayyid lives, and “what lies in the shadow of the statue?”
Oh – and our daughter turns four. Could the day be more exciting?!
In preparation for the final season of LOST, Lee and I have been staying up, ahem, rather late this last week rewatching all of last season. And last night, even though we knew that the boys would probably wake up in the middle of the night due to colds, we decided to watch two episodes because we had four episodes left to watch and we, my friends, know what’s important in life.
And sure enough, not two hours after I went to sleep, Landon was crying/hacking in his bed. It was 1:01 am. So I dragged myself up, gave him medicine, cuddled and rocked him and stumbled back to bed.
At 2:02 he was crying again, so I brought him to bed with me in the hopes that we could both get a little sleep. At 2:22 he was sitting up in our bed, his chubby face inches from mine whispering, “Hi Mommy. I yub you, Mommy? Yere’s (where’s) Woan Tia (Sloan and Tia) Mommy?” And despite the fact that I needed a crowbar to pull my fatigued eyelids apart, I had to smile at his cherubic little face grinning at me in the dark.
So I dragged myself back out of bed and took him back to his room. We rocked a bit more, then I laid him down and got back in bed at 3:03. At 3:23 I stumbled back to his room to give him his doggy book, which had fallen out of his bed and he was insisting be returned to him.
At 4:04 (I swear I’m not making these times up – it was weird) I looked at the clock for the last time as Landon moaned and whimpered from his bed. The next thing I knew, it was 6:26 and Sloan was standing over the bed.
The timing of all the wake ups was a little creepy and served as evidence that when you spend too much time lost in the mysteries of LOST, strange and crazy things start happening. Not to mention the fact that you dream about polar bears, time travel and smoke monsters.
If we were smart, we’d forgo the LOST viewing this evening and go to bed early. But that’s not going to happen. We’ve made it this far so we’re committed now. And so I shall drink my coffee, yawn so wide I suck the oxygen out of the room and power forward. Because life is all about priorities, people!
I’m off now to pack the make up under my saggy eyes…
Wow I really need to watch the 7pm review of LOST before the new episode starts at 8pm, I total forgot and need Cory to refresh my memory on what is going on with Sayyid and what lies in the shadow of the statue, have no clue what you are talking about and I watched every episode lat year.
Julie, I didn’t remember 90% of last season either. You guys can probably watch last season’s finale on hulu just to refresh your memories! I’d offer to let you come over and watch it with us tonight, but we’ve been laying in bed watching it on the laptop and having you and Cory pile up in bed with us would be…awkward. 🙂
I never remember from one season to the next. I need to watch the 2 hr recap in order to get in the game! Is there one this time? We watch everything online, so i’ll have to keep my eyes peeled!
I am assuming there will be some kind of recap – maybe only an hour, though.
randy and i started watching LOST 2 weeks ago when we had the flu and we have officially been sucked in. we watch 2-3 episodes every night…and usually at dinner…and if he comes home for lunch we watch it then too. we are half way through season 3 so we are going to wait and watch the new episode online after we finish the old ones…but i feel your pain. hailey has been sick too…and waking up several times a night…yet we continue to stay up late and watch it =)
