Dang you world of TV!!!

I had a goal. A simple goal. I began it months ago when I started to see movies on the  horizon that may or may not make it to Oscar season, but my goal was to watch every Oscar nominee (namely best picture nominees, but maybe others), BEFORE the Awards. Sure, I still have time, I can still do it, and I only have 3 left (and quick access to all 3), but I'm not sure I will succeed... why?

TV. Specifically, a TV show I've been avoiding for 5 years now. A TV show I've heard rave reviews about, heard people becoming addicted to, heard people talking about. A TV show that I said I wouldn't watch precisely because people obsessed and liked it a little too much. I don't want to follow the crowd. I like to be unique. But less than a week ago, I caved and watched the pilot episode of the first season. And now I'm hooked. I've literally watched six 45 minute episodes in the past TWO DAYS. 

Curse you TV.

Curse you Lost.

I am a sheep being led to slaughter, a lemming, an Alabamian who likes Sweet Home Alabama, a Republican who likes Bush. I am a Wal-Mart shopping, coffee drinking, Mac weilding, poloshirt wearing, internet blogging, facebook using, recent addict of Lost. Is there anything about me that is the least bit original?
