I thought you might all want an update on the progress of Operation Let Haley Watch Lost.
Thanks to the valiant efforts of Cody and Erika, who each left a message on our answering machine last Thursday revealing one aspect of the plot of the "Lost" premiere, Dan relented, and allowed me to view the Tivo-recorded episode, but only on the condition that he was not in the house at the time. (It was more like he wrestled me to the ground and took the remote out of my hands to keep me from hitting "play" on the Tivo in his presence.) But I prevailed. So I can now proudly join the rest of America in saying .... "WHAT? There's a BOOK CLUB on the island? What kind of sick, twisted game are the writers of this show playing with my mind?" But that's about all I can say, because true to form for this show, that's about all I learned. I can't wait for next week.
Dan continues to avoid all conversations that reveal the plot of the show, and actually deleted Cody and Erika's messages before they were fully played, but I think he'll crack. Kind of like Locke, who wanted to keep pushing the button down in the Dharma station until he realized it was all futile. Except of course that turned out to be a bad call. Once again, I hate this show.
Back here in reality, we'll be spending the rest of the week with Dan's parents, who are coming into town on Wednesday for the latter half of the Balloon Fiesta. Should be good times, but maybe not a lot of blogging. Hang in there. A rescue plane will be here any day now. Or not.

OH! to Haley and all of you other bloggers...you need to check out this blogsite...
http://www.johnmayer.com/blog
Yes that is John Mayer, the pop star, and I know you maybe thinking you don't like his music. But aside from that, he is a brilliant blogger and makes me erupt in a gut-busting frenzy during the middle of work everytime I read his blog...AKA...its funny.

Sorry Sis, I'm with Dan on this one. I have decided to wait until the season is over and rent it at Blockbuster rather than endure the relentless teasing that is Lost. But that's my choice. You lesser mortals without such an extreme level of self-discipline can have it your way if you choose. Dan and I will just start are own fan club called "What everyone wishes the could be...but can't!"
