get LOST

Well, we finished watching the first season of Lost last night at about 1 am. I loved watching it again, but especially I loved watching it with people who hadn't seen it before. It was so fun to know what was coming and hear them gasping and yelling and screaming. It was also very cool how much you catch on the second go round. I think Janel and I drove them nuts when we would start whispering about stuff that has come up in the second season.

So, while watching my favorite show with new folks was great...I've made some new friends from it, too. I don't really remember how it all came about, but Lesley had mentioned it to me and I probably invited myself along. We make dinner (highlights: Mandy's individual cheesecakes and last night's breakfast for dinner shmorgasbord), watch, recap, laugh, recap, and have a great time. And here's what I've learned:
1. Walt is a freak.
2. Lesley is hilarious to watch serious shows with...She gets so into it, it's precious.
3. From liking crusty food to hating feet, Mandy may just be my soulmate.
4. Speaking of, never tell Cory you don't like feet or his will be in your hair in about 10 seconds. (Shout out by the way to Cory's group Vocal Union who we learned last night is going to record a demo for McDonald's: Ba da da da da. I'm lovin' it. Mwaaaa.)
5. JJ Abrams is a friggin genius.
6. Susan (my Stumps, my Stumps, my Stumps) can bestow theme songs in a nanosecond.
7. JT is hiLARious. And good at picking up on details.
8. There are fine nuances in the difference between Dirty Hot and Filthy Hot.

Now I better go...my newest acquisition from NetFlix is Nosferatu and I need to start paying attention...
