I stayed home from work today because I have a nasty cold. It is inevitable that I should get at least one each winter since I work around so many germs!!! I can handle the snot and congestion, but I seem to always get a really bad cough with every cold I get, which drives me batty. It often turns into bronchitis and I am hoping that this will pass without me having to deal with that. I took some really good cough medicine this morning just after the kids and the husband went out the door and I slept until almost noon! That hasn't happened in quite a while.
So, I had the afternoon to rewatch the premiere of Lost from the other night. I was left with several questions. For those of you who watch the GREATEST show EVER, feel free to add your thoughts. For the rest of you, please just humor me while I rant here...
OK, so I knew the island was moving through time (or I figured as much) but this episode left me wondering if the island was moving, or the people on the island were moving, or both. And was everybody moving? Because Richard Alpert was NOT with Locke after the first bright flash of light, even though Juliet and Sawyer seemed to "move" together at that instance.
The time travel explains a lot to me. I think that the time travel explains the "voices" in the jungle that we have heard for the past four seasons. People moving through time around the Losties making noise. I think it explains the visions that the people on the island keep seeing. For instance, the times when Jack saw his dad, and Hurley saw the dude from the hospital, and even when Kate saw the horse. I believe these were all people traveling through time. I also believe that all the visions Hurley has been having (visits from Charlie, Eko, and Ana Lucia, among others) can be explained by them traveling from a time before they died to the future to bring Hurley important information. Maybe Hurley can see Libby again after all!
Also, what's so special about Desmond? How come Daniel felt it was ok to alter Desmond's memories, but he told Sawyer that he couldn't speak to Desmond or he might change the future. I definitely think Mrs. Hawking will turn out to be Daniel's mother but I still am trying to understand the connection between these "off-the-island" friends and Ben. Were these people once islanders?
Did you notice the guy at the beginning that interrupted Dr. Marvin Candle's station orientation video called him Dr. Chang, or something similar to that? Not Dr. Candle. We know he has other aliases but I don't think we've heard that one yet.
What is Sun up to? It feels like no good to me.

And how about this HOT picture of Sawyer my friend Wanda shared with me! Whew!To trust Ben, or not to trust Ben. He is such a sneaky devil... and he is so knowledgeable about the island... but he is so BAD!!! I tend to go with Hurley and his instincts about the mysterious Benjamin Linus, although Ana Lucia specifically told Hurley NOT to get arrested, and he did anyway. Who is manipulating who? Who do you trust? Ooooh, it is just so good!!!
OK, I feel a little better having gotten those questions/thoughts off my chest. I can't wait for next Wednesday! Please, please, please post comments if you are a Lost addict like me... I need feedback! And if you are not a reader of longlivelocke.blogspot.com then you NEED to become one. Erika Olsen writes super comprehensive summaries of each episode.
Alrighty.... until I have more to add...

I emailed you my most pressing Lost questions after the new episodes, they are pretty much the same as yours. I really think now that Jacob is Locke in the future, Locke just doesn't know it yet, but Ben has known all along. Also, this proves even more that all the Losties have been there before, and that is how Ben and the others knew everything about them after they crashed. Just like knew all about Ethan right before Ethan shot him. It's just so GOOD but confusing! I just feel sorry for people who don't watch it. They really don't know what they're missing.
