I haven't had an ounce of time to blog about the LOST premiere, and I know that if I start now, my hubby's gonna come walking through the door, ready for date night. So, sorry folks, date night wins for now, but my thoughts on the premiere are coming...

Just one thing - Praise the LORD that Jack's beard is gone!

For Lostie Fanatics only...

LOST Season 5 premiers in 3 days - 3 DAYS!! Sooo excited! So of course I've been hashing through the last season trying to glean anything that might be important going in to episode 5.1 this week.

There are 2 scenes that bothered me from last season. 1. When Jack visits Hurley because he's not taking his meds, Hurley tells Jack that he speaks with dead Charlie frequently, and he has a message for Jack - "You're not supposed to raise him, Jack". Then Hurley says, "Do you think he means Aaron?" Jack doesn't respond. So dead Charlie tells Jack "You're not supposed to raise him" via Hurley.
2. Kate wakes up in the middle of the night, hears a noise down the hall. She guns up only to find Claire bending over Aaron, admiring him. When Claire stands up, she says in a very angry tone, "Don't you bring him back, Kate. Don't you dare bring him back!!"

I have always thought these two "visions" were in conflict with each other - Charlie says Jack's not supposed to raise Aaron, which can only mean that he's supposed to bring Aaron back to Claire so she can raise him. (this would follow the psychic's warning from Season 1 who told Claire she was supposed to raise the baby) But if Claire tells Kate not to bring Aaron back to the island, Claire obviously can't raise him.

SOOO - go with me here - what if the "HE" in both those visions aren't referring to Aaron?? What if they're referring to someone else? My guess?? LOCKE. "RAISE him"? "Bring him back?" Like raise him from the dead? Bring him back to life? If Charlie and Claire were both talking about Locke, they wouldn't be contradicting each other. Like they know what Locke did - or will do - if he's brought back to the island. (and you know these writers - it would be just like them to want us to THINK they're talking about Aaron...)

So that's my crazy theory going into season 5. Dan never thought the visions were contradictory in the first place and isn't going there, so what do YOU think?

Happy New Year, everyone!!

Hey, all - Happy 2009! I just wanted to share the cake I did for Jackie's 21st birthday - I think it's my favorite so far!
