It's official...

Lost is my favorite TV show and J.J. Abrams is a flippin' genius. The development of the story just keeps getting better -- more twisted and misleading and yet we learn more each week about each of the characters -- when ABC doesn't do three weeks of re-runs. I can't wait to pull it up on the TiVo and watch it. Last night's episode (Deux Ex Machina) left me wondering What IS on that island? What IS that big concrete thing with the hatch in the top? How DID Locke get paralyzed? -- and that is exactly how a television show is supposed to be written. Like the first couple of seasons of Alias, this show makes you want to watch the next episode, and the next, and so on. So, after watching the episode with Kels, I looked at her and said "that is the best show on television! I love it!" Pretty big words from a guy who hates normal, everyday television.

Afterwards, Kels fell asleep on the couch and I plunged into the world of Azeroth, playing my n00bie PvP character - Zilah - for about an hour. I'm just amazed at how fast World of Warcraft sucks you in with "foozles" (little rewards and bonuses) along the path to levelling. You're so busy just playing, collecting "foozles" and having fun that you don't realize DING! you've levelled again. I hit 13 with Zilah and then logged over to Argent Dawn to play Hargus, my main. He's so fun to play...especially with the almost-guaranteed-group that I play with made up of Randy (Tollo), Robert (Bogin) and Dusty (Dlangar).

So I was up till 2am, back from vacation-mode and back into the old routine. :P
