Lovely Wednesday

Here I am, coming out from under my rock. Wearing maternity pants. They really are still too big, and yet they are the only thing that doesn't cut me in half and make my belly look like a two-tiered snowman. I'm in that very awkward, "she just looks fat" stage.

So, I realized I am being a little antisocial today when one co-worker asked another coworker if "everything is alright" with me. She added, "I'm getting a vibe from her." The other coworker said, "you mean like a mental vibe?" So, either they think I may be going crazy or really unfriendly.

I've been so afraid to answer the question, "how are you" and "what's new", just so TERRIFIED to say "it" out loud to anyone but my very innermost circle (the entire internet included, of course...) that I guess I have been a little aloof. Well, soon enough I'm going to have to let the cat out of the bag. I'm running out of baggy clothes.

In completely unrelated and trivial news, don't you just LOVE Wednesday?! Seriously, my absolute FAVORITE day! First of all, my students have early release on Wednesdays and that is just like having your favorite holiday EVERY WEEK! Then there is the fact that my two absolute favorite tv shows in the whole wide world are both on  Wednesday (Lost and Project Runway) and I am blessed to live in the age of DVR! Wednesday also happens to be the day I hit a new pregnacy week. Week 12 started today. My fingers are beginning to uncross. Just a little.

Now that I have had enough time to process it all,

I just have to say that the Lost conclusion didn't have any huge surprises, but it was great television, was it not? but really,  NO one out there got the total experience I did with my friend Jody next to me hyperventilating and squealing the whole time.

Some thoughts:

• What is with Libby's hair, and why is it always different? And why would she give her beloved dead husband's boat away to some guy who she just met in a coffee shop? Something fishy, there....She MUST be in on it somehow.
• Also, did anyone else notice that her husband was named "David"? Trivia question: Who remembers who else was named David (Dave) in this show? That's right, Hurley's imaginary (?!?) friend in the insane asylum...the same one Libby was at, too! Coincidence? Not likely!
• Dan pointed out to me that Kelvin was the same U.S. colonel (?) from season one that convinced Sayid to double cross his own countrymen and interogate his friend.
• Poor Hurley! He is going to have to find his way back all by himself after getting there with a bag on his head. This will be his vision quest. Hurley will become a man.
• What was that "knowing" look Kate and Jack shared at the end? I may be reading too much, but they are most definitely up to something!
• I got a BAD feeling about Walt. He is not good. The others wanted to get rid of him a little too much, and what was the "more than they bargained for" with Walt? Bad, bad seed!
• Could John and Eko REALLY be dead? I just can't believe it! I refuse!

Omigawd, Omigawd, Omigawd

I can hardly contain my excitement!! For absolutely no reason do I want anyone to  attempt to contact me tonight between 8 and 11. Call 911. Save any grim news for later. I'll be busy.

Lost is concluding.
