charliesmumDoing a poll is a bit like getting metaquoted, I think. I really want to do another poll, but I can't think of anything to poll, and anythiing I come up with seems like forced humor, and it doesn't work. Polls, like saying something worthy of being quoted, needs to be an organic process. Eventually something will happen in my life that's worth doing a pole about.
It was a pretty good episode, although Kate sort of annoys me. On TWoP they joke about how Kate (or the actress) has two looks, pensive or sad; and once you have that in your head, it seems to be true. I'd like to see her look happy, just once. And we still don't know what she did that kept her on the lam for so long, but obviously it was something her mother sure couldn't forgive. There were some truly amusing moments, which is important in any genre show, I think; otherwise the drama gets too heavy. Sawyer calling Jin "Sulu" cracked me up, as did Charlie's song title, "The Monster Ate the Pilot".
It's too bad one of the survivors on the plane wasn't a lawyer or at least a mediator, because these people have a terrible habit of jumping to the wrong conclusion from a standing start. I wonder if that is a deliberate nod to Lord of the Flies?
Last night I'd put Charlie to bed and wished him happy dreams. He assured me he was planning to have good ones. A few minutes later he calls to me and says "Mommy, I'm putting my dream on pause to fix my bed."
