A Kleenex Night

Hey y'all.

Oo.  I was just reading a southern girl's blog, and that came out of my mouth.  Keyboard.  Whatever.

We are yet again, can you guess?  That's right sitting in the library.

Jered is supposed to be doing homework.. He's looking at land in Wyoming, muttering something about me crushing his dreams because I don't want to move there.  My thought is, we're not moving anywhere until he's out of school and we're out of debt.  So why worry about it yet?

If you're worried, like I was when I saw what he was searching, just know that yesterday he was choosing the land in Iowa that he wanted.  (Compromise, right?)

Guys- tonight is the night.  Tonight is the night for which I've been waiting months.  Do you know?  Do you know??






Yes.  Yes, that is right. My beloved Grey's is returning.  Tonight, Jered and I will hop in bed, have some hot cocoa, and I will pull out a box of tissues because my heart will break all over again.

You think I'm joking, but I'm completely serious.  Last season ended with one of my favorite character's death.  And I cried.  I cried like a baby.  Like a real friend had died.

I know last year I told you that Cristina was my favorite character, but Lexi is a close second.  Lexi Grey was Meredith's sister.  I loved her because she was funny, awkward things always happened to her, and she was kind of tragic.





In case that's too small to read, it says, "I can't think about anything or anybody and I can't sleep... I can't breathe, I can't eat, and I love you, I just I- I love you all the time, every minute of every day."

This was, I think, the week before she died.  She said this to Mark, or "McSteamy," her ex-boyfriend and love of her life.  They were totally going to get back together.  And instead, they were in a plane crash, and he held her hand as she died. 

(I realize that I probably sound like an annoying, petty high school girl in this post, but what can I say?  I fall in love with characters.)

Lexi always seemed to get real tear-jerker cases.  She was involved in the case where they had to unplug a woman's life support and her husband came back to kill all the doctors who were part of it.  She witnessed a crowd of parents who lost children in a plane crash, stay at the hospital for one little girl who survived until her mom got there.  Then, when she arrived, the other parent's lied to the mother about their own children's deaths so she wouldn't feel guilty. 

She was super tender hearted.  It was always evident that the cases touched her, often much deeper than other doctors.  I think she probably had one of the best hearts on the show, and yet everything seemed to go wrong for her in her personal life.

Well, I think I've rambled on long enough about my fictional friend.  If you get a chance- check out the show tonight, but only if you have time to get addicted to another show.  Just a heads up.

Alright, I'm going to go.  Jered is now looking at land in Tennessee.  Heaven help us.

Later,
Aim
