turn and face the strange

I thought I should address the new look on here in case any of you noticed and are wondering. I'm not too savvy when it comes to html and all that stuff, but Blogger just made it really easy to format and add gadgets, so I made some updates. The display is slightly different but nothing crazy, and a little cleaner looking than what I had before. Plus, there are some cool features on the sidebar. You can now listen to some sweet Potential Difference tunes and join our new mailing list while you're reading (I disabled the auto-play to spare you after the first few visits to the blog.) Also, at the top you can search within the blog for interesting items. I'll get you started with some examples: raccoon, Tom Hanks, Star Wars.

The other reason I'm posting today is because over the past month and a half, I watched the entire 5.25-season series of LOST, and now that I've run out of old episodes to watch, I suddenly feel empty. At least I've got about a dozen more new episodes to slowly watch live over the next few months until the series ends. I'm not gonna go into any details here about my thoughts on the series because it's really best that you go into it with no knowledge or expectations. But anyway, here are my personal ratings by season:

Season 1: 10 / 10
Season 2: 9 / 10
Season 3: 7 / 10
Season 4: 10 / 10
Season 5: 8 / 10
Season 6: 6 / 10 (There's still plenty of time to turn it around though.)

And finally, some comments about dreams again. I've had a lot of good ones lately that I meant to write down and share, but I've forgotten the details of most of them now. I do remember though that I've had a lot of celebrity cameos. I think I've had about 8 main characters from LOST show up in different dreams in the past month, plus one where I was friends with Stevie Wonder (who had ESP like in the VW commercial), and one where my brother was friends with Brad Pitt (I was hanging out with him at my brother's house and he proposed to Angelina next to me.) That's all sounding pretty fun right now. Maybe I should take a nap.
