figuring out 40

empty.

I've been running on fumes this week. Restless sleep. No time for green juice in the morning. Only one visit to the gym. Pretty much non-stop work from sun-up to sundown. I sat down tonight to watch Grey's & skype with Barb and realized that it was the first time all week that I've done something "frivilous." (not really the right word. I take Grey's, and Barb, very seriously) I was rewarded with hottie-counselor-guy showing up on Grey's for the 2nd week in a row. Barb & I took a skype-moment to admire him. Nothing frivilous about that. I signed off of skype telling Barb that I was going to bed. Then had to check one thing. Which led to another thing...and another...and oh, what was that thing that I was going to do quickly? Ugh. Now it's past 11:00pm and I am already dreading the 5am alarm. 

Why is it so hard, I wonder, to do the things that we know make us feel rested & healthy & whole? 

going to denver.

Hands down, one of my favorite lines from Grey's last night...when Marc & Callie are at Joe's, and Marc looks at Little Grey and tells Callie..."I'm going to Denver." Damn the "rules". Damn the promise that he made to Derek. He's going to Denver. And I say...right on.

The whole Christina/Mer fight is familiar. I couldn't even really remember what they're fighting about until Barb & I emailed after the show...she couldn't remember, either...so I had to figure it out. They're fighting over the intern surgery thing. But it doesn't really matter what the fight is about. What matters is that neither of them have their person anymore. And that sucks. Because when you're dealing with a creepy serial killer...or just a crappy friday...without your person? Well, it doesn't feel so great.

And then there's Alex & Izzie & dead guy. I feel like the writers are weaning us off of Denny...even though we all just really want him gone anyway. My favorite part of that whole thing in this episode? When Izzie tells Denny that Alex told her that he loves her. She says "that's huge for him." Not "and I love him too." Interesting.

That's some good Grey's.
