Like A Flood. Relief.

My dad’s surgery went well. They said he lost a lot of blood and they almost did a transfusion but decided against it. He woke up after the anesthetic and he never stopped breathing during the surgery itself, which was a big concern because of his weight and whatnot. He is in a surgery step-down unit for the night and if he continues to do well, they will move him to the regular post-surgery ward for several days. The only concern we have left to worry about now is post-surgery infections. I think if he makes it through the end of the week, we will be in the clear.

I can honestly say I plan to sleep like a log tonight for the first time in a week. I am so relieved. With my dad’s health as bad as it is, I was prepared - (as prepared as one can be) - for the worst and I am kind of shocked that it all came out so well.

I really appreciate all the good thoughts from you guys. <3s

And since I am here, let me ask a question to all the people still watching Glee. My intention was to finish season three, watch Puck graduate - (yes, he is my favorite character) - and then be done with the show. Season 2 just didn’t work for me very well and I have several episodes of season 3 on my Tivo that I still haven’t gotten around to watching yet, which makes me think my interest has severely waned. So today I was going to go through my Tivo’s Season Pass Manager and take Glee out and put in Collection Intervention and Paranormal Witness, as well as clean out any other things that needed it. When I went through my Wishlist though - the season 4 premiere of Glee popped under Mark Salling’s name. And imdb tells me he is still on the show. I know that they plan on following Rachel in season 4, which I think is both a mistake on the part of the show and on Lea Michele’s career but whatever. So, without spoiling me for anything else in season 3 or 4, tell me - are they following Puck post-graduation or did he get held back? I can’t imagine I will watch season 4 either way but I held off on pulling it from my manager for the moment. I love Puck so much, it’s ridiculous, but the show itself I have kind of fallen out of love with, That’s okay, all I need is season one and the Grinch Christmas episode - (which I got for Christmas last year!).

Supposedly all of the characters from before are still going to be a part of season four, but probably less of them than of Rachel and Kurt, who are going to take up about half of the show time.

That is so stupid. They would get a much longer lasting, fresher show if they rotated people out, brought in new kids and let older ones graduate and then the new kids would be moved up to the senior spots and so on - the show could last 15 years like that. It would be cool if they had let Finn graduate and then we don't see him for four years or so and then Mr. Schue leaves the school and Finn came back after all those years to be a teacher and take over the Glee club. Right? And this is such a bad idea for the actors' careers as well - you would think Lea and Chris would want to storm Broadway while they are still sought after names. You know, my biggest problem with the show as a whole is that it very much felt like The Rachel & Kurt Show, until I didn't like those characters anymore at all.

Ugh. Well, I am sure I am not watching season four but now I have to decide if I even want to watch the season three episodes I have left on the Tivo. I mean, when I thought graduation would be the end of their stories, I was all for watching it but now - what's the point?

There were some good things in season three. There were also some really boring episodes. Also, Ryan needs to stop trying to rewrite his own teens years through Kurt.

The Glee Project was FUN, though. Go watch that instead.

Ugh, yes. We all take our real lives and make them turn out better/make them more exciting in our heads. But they should stay in our heads. They certainly should not be displayed all over the TV for the world to see. Ryan should just get a LJ and start writing bad Mary-Sue fics featuring Kurt instead of forcing it on us every week. It turned me sour on Kurt pretty damn fast.

The Glee Project was FUN, though. Go watch that instead.

It isn't available through Netflix! :( Remind me next season to try it out.

I will! You might also be able to find some of it on the Glee website.
