are you Lost?

as I sew my mind wanders around on it's own...to things that are bugging me...like Lost. I know that they are trying to make the fans and naysayers happy by answering some of the mysteries they have created over the last few seasons...but what is up with Locke? Why would he push that guy into the security-device-that-makes-blood-spurt-out-of-your-ears-thing? Didn't even bat an eyelash. Just did it. Then he said sorry. Like he just farted or something. Sorry. Wow! they have totally become desensitized to the violence haven't they? There was Jack playing football. Kate looked very shocked.

What else would ya do if you were reconciled to the fact that you were staying there with them? It seems like a nice place to live to me. Why would you want to go back to your old life? When you look at the big picture it's kinda nice to be on a tropical island with a bunch of interesting people. I think I might just sit on the beach and weave me some baskets.  I definitely would be  working in Sun's garden and  babysitting for Claire, and riding around with Hurley in his VW- at least till it ran out of gas!  I just don't understand why  the bit about Kate being flawed- what that one eyed guy was going on about before he got the sonic blast. I get that they have access to computers and the outside world- or that someone inside was feeding them info- we still haven't really met all the survivors- there could be another "Other" spy.

I don't know...but they have to leave some of the mystery or else it's a bunch of people on an island- like that reality show- which was one of our guesses about the plot line- Fred thinks that they are dead and that this is Pergatory. I disagree and can't seem to change his mind! I think that they are all spiritually lost and this is an opportunity for them to find themselves- but what is the problem with being in paradise? No bills? No phones? No mowing the yard? What's wrong with that?

I wouldn't mind that so much- I damn sure wouldn't stress out about it. I think I would talk to the Others and agree to a truce. Then if they didn't agree I'd send Locke and Sayid over. I apologize if you don't watch the show- (sorry Barb) but these are the things that float through my noggin as I am sewing ....I started a new couple of art aprons and some new-sort-of-old-fashioned- but-calamity-kim-styled things that I am dying to let you see but am not finished with yet and I guess I have to wait till I get them just right, before I show them off! I ordered some of Martha Negleys coffee and tea cup fabric and I just got the Moda sock monkey textured fabric in the mail today! I can't wait to start that idea! So, it's busy around here at the calamity cottage! I don't think I have ever explained the Calamity part of my blogs name, have I?

well, it has to do with several things...first of all I am fairly clumsy. Yes, that's right, I can knock over or run into just about anything in my path! I am a breaker too- I can strip a screw, scuff up shoes, break your brass monkey, don't take me near the china shop! I am just a bit heavy handed! Maybe from gaining and losing weight - I don't know my own size or strength?! It's kinda funny...and the other part of the reason is that I would have loved to have been Calamity Jane- not the drunk part(like on Deadwood) but the ridin', ropin', cussin,  hanging out with cowboys part! I would have worn some jeans under my skirts and never even owned a corset! I like the idea of the prairie and the west and Indians and all that. I could have lived it.  Give me the wide open range or the freedom of a gypsy to roam and see and make and do. That would make for an interesting life. So, I guess that is all for now...I felt famous when Amanda told me Louis had made an appearance on Ullabenulla's blog. I love going to visit her and seeing all the unique and wildly exotic things she features- so, Louis was in good company!

I was so busy Monday that I missed going to visit her! We had a call from the bank and long story short the Visa card numbers got hacked at TJMaxx and someone tried to use a fake duplicate of my card in Spain. So the bank killed my card and I had to go request a new one. HUGE  pain in the ass to have to go get cash- what's that?  Now it will be days before I get another card and have some  funds. She was saying how we won't even have cash someday-? What Miss Bank lady? How will we go to yard sales? buy girl scout cookies? get a paper?  It all keeps progressing but does it really have to?  Can't we keep the paper money? After they just spent all that on trying to design it so that it can't be counterfeited?  anyway... maybe someday we will use old money for collage...
