Stuff, and LOST!

We met with our doctor on Tuesday to go over the genetic report for all our embryos. As we knew, we had two that were unaffected, for sure. There's a third that was also unaffected, but had incomplete control results, so the accuracy is reduced a bit. So the plan is to transfer the two blastocysts that we know are unaffected, and save the third if we need it.

We had three others that were affected, and the remaining three had either a contaminant or didn't give results for whatever reason. We may try to re-test those three, but we have no idea if they'll be able to survive a thaw, re-biopsy, and a re-freeze.

So cross your fingers, toes, think good thoughts that the two we have will work! The transfer is likely going to happen near the end of this month - I can sort of pick the day I want, but I don't know if I'll be able to push it to the beginning of June, so I may end up having to miss my very last day at work.

Okay, on to TV stuff. I thought "V" was very good this week - and next week's looks like it's going to be good as well. The ratings are still somewhat dismal, so I don't have a lot of hope that the show is going to get renewed for next season, which would be too bad, as I think the writing is starting to gain some traction. They still need to tighten up some of the green screen effects though, lol.

And then there's "LOST." Read no further if you haven't seen it yet.

That was a crazy episode! I got inadvertently spoiled for Sun a while back, and then accidentally read something that spoiled me about Jin just a couple days before the episode aired. I still totally cried (although it wasn't the sobbing, how-dare-you kind of crying like when Juliet died - the first time). I think I would've been more of a wreck if it weren't for the fact that they're still alive in the Alt, and I'm clinging onto hope that that's where all our Losties are going to end up in the end.

Sayid redeemed himself in a big way for me. I've been so down on the character lately, and I used to love him in the earlier seasons. But the way he grabbed the bomb, told Jack about Desmond in like two seconds, and then sprinted down the hall and blew up like a total badass reminded me of the old Sayid. It was great. Sad, but I think kind of a fitting end for that character, at least in the Island reality.

And of course, Frank, who I assumed did not survive being hit by the door and the sub sinking. Surprisingly, a lot of people seem to think he's still alive, but I totally just assumed he died. Kind of a lousy way to die, but I guess it's not worse than the way Ilana went. I'll miss Frank though!

I almost cheered when Kate got shot, and at the end, Marc was like, "How the hell is she still alive???" Kate is obviously meant to do something significant - at least that's my feeling. She's not a candidate, but she's still alive, presumably because "the island isn't done with her yet." I think Jack is meant to ultimately be the candidate, but I don't know what role Hurley, Sawyer, and Kate are meant to play until then.

I have no idea how this is going to all play out. I've read some spoilers here and there, but I've mostly been avoiding the big ones, so I have no clue how it's going to end. Even when I've gotten hints of things, I still don't know what it all means. Hard to believe there's only two more episodes until the finale. Aaaack!
