An earthquake just struck my area during the last 8 minutes of Lost, and all I could think of as I was holding on to my coffee table and listening to my dishes rattle was 'they better not break into the show before I see that new preview'!

So, what's the most obsessive thing Lost has caused YOU to do?

Ok, this is really embarrassing.....but, well, Lent is coming up - and usually a good resolution is to give up TV for that time period (6 weeks). Its amazing how much family time you can find to spend with each other when TV is not an option! Not to mention extra time to focus on prayer and meditation...

Well, we all discussed it (the addicted spouse and I, and the addicted kids) and the thought of giving up Lost was so horrifying we couldn't even continue the conversation. And that's a gift to GOD we were saying we just couldn't manage! :fear2:

I'm totally ashamed now...... (slinking away, hiding in back of room)

:blush:

But....but....but....

FEBRUARY IS SWEEPS MONTH!!!!!!!!! :blink:

(Lil wails plaintively, "I'm only human!") :unsure:

:bye:

I think God would understand. *Think of all the religious references in the show. * ;) *

He might even get mad if you didn't watch! *He might crash a plane you're travelling in, you could get Lost . . . hey, wait a minute, I'm getting obsessed again. ::)

Yeah, yeah, that's the ticket!!!! ;D Thanx!

But along more "normal" obsessed lines, here's a true one:

I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and checked the Fuselage on my way back to bed - how sick is that?

:jump:

I make sure nothing clashes with me watching LOST. In the beginning of the show I would unplug the phone especially if it was a new episode. no loud interuptions allowed, I need to fully concentrate on the show. now people know better to not bother me at 8.

i was talking on the phone to a friend and something about lost came on the tv in the background, and i said 'call ya back' and abruptly hung up on her!

Edit:* thought of another one, all this week i have been thinking it was the next day, monday i thought it was tuesday, tuesday i thought it was wednesday, and then today at work a co-worker asked me if i thought today was thursday, and i promptly said 'no it's wednesday', and she said 'oh yeah lost day!'* and sighed and walked away!* :-[

btw, what's sweeps month?* am i going to feel stupid not knowing?* :-[

it is the middle of the night (2am* my time) and look where i am!* ;D

something to give up for lent...mmmm....

I went to see 'Hide and Seek' with the honey last weekend and in the movie the little girl in the movie has a doll who is named Alex. I heard her call the doll Alex and the first thought I had was of Lost and Danielle's Alex. I also spend my entire work day on here, so that is enough of an obbsession! :laugh:

February is one of the "sweeps" months. It's when the networks trot out their best episodes to get the best ratings possible. I'm not sure of the details, but we should expect some seriously great episodes!!

Another obsessive moment: After spending hours on The Fuselage after a great episode of Lost, I dreamt about it, and then woke up spouting theories!!!

I see the paddy wagon coming . . . :D

In my economics class, we have to get with a partner and create situations concerning the public's relationship with business and govt. so we used characters from lost (ie Charlie, Claire, Sayid) and created situations for them before the crash. Like, their jobs, what they bought, what their wages were etc. lol. it's lots of fun! I've also incorporated Lost and some of its 'morals' into two english papers ;D

In my French class we're making family trees to present to the class (obviously, we'll be speaking French). We were allowed to make up our own families. I decided to use characters from LOST, a coconut tree, and my pet is going to be a polar bear ;D

How cool! :lol2:
Your teacher is going to love your creativity - 8)

Hey, I've got a request....when you're done with it, will you scan it and let us see it? That could be really funny seeing how you related the characters to each other!

;D

Sure thing, LiL. Things are...well, they're certainly interesting. Do you want to know the relationships now or do you want to wait until I'm done and can scan it?

SURE! ;D
I didn't realize you had it all mapped out already -
Yeah I'm dying to know who is related to whom..... :lol2:

Ha ha! Of course I had it mapped out! The moment the idea popped into my head---BOOM! Out came the pen and paper. It took me a bit of time to do this. Obviously, some of the relationships are definitely...um...interesting.

Geez. I just woke up after a very nice, much need, five hour nap. Where have my manners gone? Thanks for thinking my idea's creative. I always try to put a little twist on all of my assignments.

The Grandparents and Their Children

Locke and Danielle = Jack, Shannon, and Charlie

Bernard and Rose = Michael and Claire

My Aunts, Uncles, Parents, and Cousins

Jack and Kate = Sawyer and Boone

Shannon and Sayid = Nadia

Charlie and Claire = theG

Michael and Sun = Walt

Nadia and I Get Married (and Boone, Sawyer, and Walt don't due to lack of female characters)!

Nadia and Steve = love

theG and Scott = love

The Pets

Mon chien = Vincent (that's right, Walt! Vincent is mine!)

Ours blanc (polar bear)

I probably should have married Hurley... Now, I can and will make some minor changes (very minor!) if people have certain requests.

:o This is hilarious!

Oh, but you have to place Hurley somewhere - give him a really hot background chick ;) (ooh, ooh, how about the Diary Writer? she's sposed to be pretty buff and loves to surf!) We refer to her as D.W. - maybe she could be Dorothy Whitney ... lol!

And hey, it's the new millennium, let's marry off Jin and Boone and have them adopt Danielle... ;D
