building a mystery
I have just arrived at my mom's house for a visit when she tells me that my sister just called to say that she was abducted, and is being held prisoner somewhere in town. Mom seems concerned, but strangely not quite concerned enough. I take it upon myself to call Nina back to try to find out where she is. I have to walk out into the back yard in order to get signal and so the dog doesn't bother me. Eventually, in a halting and awkward conversation, I am able to glean from Nina that she's locked in a basement, but she doesn't know the address. She doesn't seem all that upset either.
I try to suggest to her that she call 911 so the emergency folks can trace her cell phone's location, but my signal starts to cut out again at that very moment. When the signal returns I can suddenly hear the voice of my sister's abductor on the other end, saying something to Nina. He speaks with an obvious twang, a stereotypical hayseed/old prospector voice. None of his words are distinct enough to make out, except for an address: 2023 Thomas Ave.
I run back into my mom's house, wondering to myself whether I'll be prosecuted for assault when I beat the living shit out of the old prospector, and I scribble the address down on a scrap of paper before I can forget it. I read the address back to my mom, and she shows me that this new location fits perfectly into the empty spot on the map for the Lost Experience Season 4 Reality Game we've been playing!
Cut to a scene from the Lost season premiere. A group of castaways are in the process of stealth-raiding the old prospector's station. Am I there with them or am I watching it on TV?
The character of John Locke has been replaced with a thirtysomething pale bald man in a neat charcoal gray suit with a blood red tie. Despite the fact that this man is replacing my favorite character, I'm growing to like him. He seems to be an ex-assassin or something, but with an incongruously pleasant, easygoing demeanor.
Someone in the raiding party makes a wisecrack involving the word "Hell," like "see you in Hell" or something. This causes Nu-Locke to burst into goofy, nervous laughter, thus supporting my theory that Nu-Locke is actually Satan.
Lost Season 4 begins February 2008.

god damn, I love lost dreams. I need to post some of mine someday.
more like a nightmare!!
Wow. your dreams are always fascinating. Mine have been so mundane lately. *sigh*
Joe: Yeah, seriously, get on the dream train. If you and I pool our resources we may be able to create a comic out of all our Lost dreams and call it LOST: DONUT SECRET BONUS SEASON -1.
Amber: Aw, thanks. I should point out, however, that this is the first dream I've even remembered in quite a while, so you probably have just as many interesting ones as I do.
wow, that drawing is hilarious. I haven't literally laughed out loud that heartily in a long time. I hope that was a desired response
