Waiting to be LOST

Since we knew we’d have a lot of new expenses, my wife and I got rid of our (ridiculously high priced) cable about a month and a half ago, and because of where we live, we can get exactly 5 channels over the air. (FOX, NBC, ABC, CBS, and PBS.) At first it was extrememly difficult because I have been a cable tv junkie since I was a kid. I still mourn the loss the Discovery Channel (farewell Mythbusters) and USA Network (I’m a huge closet pro wrestling fan) but all in all I’ve adapted pretty well I think. Well, it’s about to get a whole lot easier to get my TV fix.

January 31st is the premiere of the 4th season of LOST, and we can’t wait. Granted, the writer’s strike threatens to shorten this season to just 8 episodes, but that’s 2 solid months of the island. I can live with that. Besides, at that point my wife will be 7 months along, and there will be baby showers and nursery painting and decorating to be done.

So I’ve got 17 more days LOST-less. The whole find815.com interactive game is getting me geared up for next season, and I may just have to go pick up last season’s DVD set to get in the LOST mood.
