A love affair with February

Here is it, February, and I'm just getting around to writing in my blog. I like February, and I'll tell you why.

1. It's only 28 days.
2. I am taking a week off from work.
3. There is a Federal holiday.
4. So I only have to work 14 days this month.
5. The Lost season starts this month (today, to be exact).
6. Groundhogs make predictions and we listen.
7. Rob's birthday is this month.
8. Valentine's Day means guilt-free chocolate.
9. Strangely, there is usually a good day to surf in Washington.

I was going to make this a top-ten list, but I could only think of nine. I hate to be a broken record from my last post (as well as my list above), but tonight is the season premiere of Lost and I'm so excited I'm ready to pee my pants. Last night I rewatched the finale from last season and pondered what it all could mean. Predeterminism v. Free Will. I would say Good v. Evil, but that seems too simplistic for the themes going on in this show. I love that it is this complex. I love that so many people have so many different ideas about what it all means. Damn it, I love this show.

But if you read my last post, you already know this, so I'll shut up now. I'm going to get crazy and try to stay up until 11:00 p.m. tonight, a full 2-1/2 hours past my bedtime. I'll probably be a complete zombie tomorrow, but I think it will be worth it.

I think it's quickly becoming obvious that I'm unable to think, write or talk about anything besides the Lost finale, so I'll just close for now. Perhaps my next post will be all about the season premiere. Aren't you excited!?!
