Im going to say it right now, publicly and openly. I love the television show LOST. I cant get enough of it.

About a month ago a buddy of mine at work told me that I need to watch it, and how great it was. I had heard a lot of buzz about it, but never checked it out.

I figured what the hell and downloaded the first episode via bit torrent and watched it on my windows media center (i would have bought them from itunes if my media center supported mov files!). The show was instantly like crack for us, my wife and I wanted more right away. I immediately got the entire first season.

I showed my buddy Jason and his girlfriend the next day, they became addicts as well.

Like heroin into the vein, night after night we stared at the TV and argued about what was in the hatch, what the numbers mean, the polar bears, the others, etc. It was Gilligans Island meets Twilight Zone.

Season one flew by in a matter of days; On to season 2. Thank goodness for bit torrent, and other people in my situation. I was able to download all of the episodes for season 2 with ease.

Things only get more interesting and confusing once the hatch is opened. We were sucked deeper and deeper into the story lines and twists of the island. Having all of the episodes at my fingertips was instantly gratifying and immensely satisfying.

In the last month and a half, Amy and I have crammed a year and a half of Lost into 6 weeks. 42 hours of Lost. We are caught up with the series. Now we are facing the reality of not being able to get our fix of Lost when ever we want. Its only been a day but Im already freaking out about the map on the blast door and who Henry Gale actually is!

To satisfy my craving, I have turned to lostpedia.com its an open source online encyclopedia of everything lost from obscure theories to character backgrounds.

I have also started listening to the official Lost podcast. The directors shed some light the past a future episodes.

Damn Im a nerd.
