Wrapped Up

Well, I just submitted my last assignments for my first quarter of my Masters Degree program.  It feels awesome to be done for a few weeks!  Okay...on to more important things.

I can't even begin to talk about all the crappy things going on in our world.  Fires are destroying California, it's snowing in the deep south, people are shooting each other all over the place, people are touching people they have no business touching and acting like they have a right to do so, corruption is rampant...goodness, does it ever stop?  I'm afraid not.  But I can explore those things another time. 

I started to include my review of the 98 Degrees Christmas concert, but it was getting too long to share with my thoughts for this post, so it will be published separately, probably tomorrow.

The Christmas Spirit continues to fall upon me.  I'm sending letters and cards and spending all kinds of money, and trying to make sure I spend time with everyone I can.

Also, another big announcement:  I'm probably crazy, but I have decided to run the Derby Mini Marathon in April.  AAAAAAAAHHHHHH what am I thinking?!  Several people have faith in me, but I'm working on building that faith in myself.  I've had a case of the sicklies the past few days, so my training has been thrown off, but I have extra weeks built in, so I am crossing my fingers I can progress in time.  I have something like 20 weeks left.   So, cross your fingers and toes for me! 


OKAY:
WE. NEED. TO. TALK. ABOUT. THE. WALKING. DEAD.
So stop reading if you're not caught.  And if you're a fan and you're not caught up by now, then you're not a fan and shame on you.

COOOOOOORAALLL!!!!!!!!!!!  NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Okay, so,  my first thought was "OMG WHAT THE HECK?"  Then, I started thinking about the show, and reasons and patterns and rationales and WHY and death histories and montages and flashbacks and stories and WHYYYY.  My thought shifted to "Maybe it's not a walker bite." Because we didn't see jack squat happen!  Like, he tugs at Negan's heart strings for a minute, darts, runs around and almost gets exploded on, then shows up with a walker bite?  Um, I refuse to accept this, AMC.  

Then on Talking Dead, Chris Hardwick was all sentimental about Coooral, and I thought he got teary-eyed for a second.  The executive producer of the show was all emotional, too.  Then I read some stuff on Twitter, and read Chandler's interview on the AMC blog, and I got all emotional right along with them all!!!!!!  I even Tweeted Chandler, AMC, and Chris Hardwick:  "Please tell me this is a big joke and it's not a walker bite."  They have yet to reply.  Whatevs.  I'm an inquiring mind.  I need to know.

But, seriously....COOOORAL??????   Why couldn't it be Carol?  Or Michonne?  Or Ezekiel?  Or FREAKING GREGORY?  Gregory has outlived Carl.  What a crock-o-poo.
