The firefighter wasn’t able to come today. He hurt his back and was taking some muscle relaxants and couldn’t drive the 4 hours to get here (understandably).

So, I stayed home (the weather is bad and we’re due for a big snow storm) and watched the SciFi Channel’s The Lost Room.

What a show. It kept me riveted to the television for six hours straight (it’s a three part mini-series).

It’s interesting and engaging. I didn’t know where it was going to go next (which is unusual).

Peter Krause (of Six Feet Under fame) plays the main character.

It will be showing again tomorrow so if you’re interested in an original mystery, give it a try (I actually Tivo’d it and that made it a bit less than 6 hours).

The ending doesn’t tie things up neatly — but I understand that there is a chance to make this a series. I’d welcome that.
