so very random
So. Further along in the saga of my life.
Yesterday morning I found out my dad has been diagnosed with adult onset diabetes. He's not at the point that he needs insulin or anything, but by the time they diagnose it, my understanding is that it's already done some damage. And this? Is what killed my grandfather. Mostly because my grandfather refused to actually take care of himself, BUT STILL.
I know he's fine, my mom is fine, they've been taking steps for a while to get my dad's weight and cholesterol under control because he's had a heart attack and had stints put in his heart, so this is just another reason to keep at it.
And I cannot help but relate to me. I mean, I'm worried for my dad, but it sounds like my mom has everything under control, and I'll be going home at the end of May to see for myself. But this is now my grandfather and my father who have developed diabetes because of their weight. And I currently weigh a lot, a lot more than my dad did at my age. I'm relatively certain that I weigh more than he does at this point in time, because he's been on diets and such. And now I'm kind of panicking about getting diabetes myself, since clearly I've got a family history.
Trust Merrin to take her dad's health problems and turn it into worrying about herself. SIGH.
In other news, I decided on Tuesday that I was going to stop eating at fast food places almost every day. If I can make it to next Tuesday I'm going to buy myself a movie. If I can make it to July I'll. Eh. I don't know yet. But something bigger than a DVD. I'm going on three days now. :)
AND. OKAY.
WHY COULDN'T I HAVE THIS EPISODE LAST WEEK? I know I'm still the least popular kid on the playground for not liking that ep so much, BUT WHATEVER. THIS ONE MORE THAN MADE UP FOR IT.
So it's been talked to death already, but OMG. SAMMY. I just. SAAAAAAAAM. His little emo face. ALL THE TIME WITH HIS LITTLE EMO FACE. I don't even know if I have more to say about it than that. My reaction to this episode would read like a big love letter to Sam.
EXCEPT. OMG. The big emo conversation at the end. I love. love. LOVE TO PIECES the way that ended. "That's what you come back with? The moment's gone." OH DEAN.
JUST. GOD. GET TO THE END ALREADY. I WANT TO KNOW HOW THIS IS GOING TO GO DOWN. Ugh, I just had a wretched thought. Seriously wretched thought. Like. What if this doesn't get resolved before next season? What if the big cliff hanger is OOOH, DEAN'S IN HELL. And NEXT SEASON, at least the beginning of it, maybe the first half, is all about Sam trying to get Dean out. Wait, that wouldn't make sense. Unless they showed Dean in hell. It would be like welcome to the Sam show. EH. SEE. I JUST NEED TO KNOW SO I CAN STOP WITH THE WILD SPECULATION.
AND. OMG. DID YOU SEE THE PREVIEWS FOR NEXT WEEK!?!?!!?!?!?! *HUZZ* I do not know how I'm going to be able to watch that.
AND ALSO.
