For whatever reason, I\u2019ve never watched LOST. I did watch a half an episode during the first season but never committed to it. But then, yesterday I had an unusually wild idea:<\/p>\n

To watch the entire 6 seasons in as few days as possible.<\/p>\n

I checked Hulu<\/a>. To my surprise, every episode was available online. I calculated. 121 episodes at roughly 45 minutes each would take 3.78 days to complete. Factoring in the need for nutrition, naps, and other responsibilities it seemed 7 days was a reasonable goal.<\/p>\n

Donna, never having seen it either, agreed that it would be a fun way to spend time together before my departure for San Diego in two weeks.<\/p>\n

Two people. One series. Six seasons. Seven days.<\/p>\n

This is day one. We are on episode 5. I will be updating via twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

P.S. My knowledge of Lost is extremely limited as I have never had reason to read up on it.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
