Am I the only one who recently has busied themselves with other actives in the afternoon other then tune into GH? When I was in college several years ago I would try to plan my class and work schedule around GH just so I could watch it everyday. Even now that I have a career and a family and plenty of other things to take my time up, I would still find time to watch GH. Even if it meant watching it on my phone at the gym. I used to look so forward to GH every day. I used to record it on BOTH tivos so I could either watch it upstairs or down stairs depending on what was going on that day. I used to sometimes watch it on the live feed first an hour earlier then it aired here just to see what was happening. Oh my love for GH has been a long time love.
But recently my love has been falling a bit short. It seems like a year ago when JaSam got engaged that GH was really on top. We were all watching and so excited about what would come next. We were in bliss over the engagement. Every board was a flurry of activity, everyone was watching. I think about those days a lot lately.
Honestly it has been several weeks since I have even turned on GH and sat down to watch. RC and FV have really changed our canvass as they had promised to do when they took over but I have to sometimes wonder if that change is for the better? I miss my old GH. The GH that was funny and clever and so addictive. My addiction is clearly subsiding these days.
We do have some amazing memories to hold on to though. I know we have heard spoilers and rumors of even more sadness and wreckage headed Jason and Sam's way. I just hope we all can hold on to watch before we completely lose our need for the addiction we have with GH. I guess in the coming months we just need to hold tight to the memories. Watch those shows in these coming months and remember how good GH was and how amazing our couple is and will be in the future. They have a rough road to go down but I hope they come out stronger on the other side. I am still hopeful. I just hope everyone can hang on for this to play out.
Right now I have to admit my faith fluctuates and my ability to sit through a whole show without either falling asleep or changing the channel is become a true reality these days. But am I the only one? Is anyone loving the writing and plot twists right now? Maybe I am. Maybe I need to look at things different but I just wonder if I am or not.

Horrific Act
My local ABC station did not air GH today because for those of you who don't know, I live in Colorado. Today, GH is probably one of the farthest things from all of our minds. I do not live in Aurora but I do live in the Denver area. Aurora is an eastern suburb. Everyone in this state who flies out of DIA has driven through Aurora. It is a large suburb that, honestly, has not been without its issues of crime and other issues that are in the local news here and there. But overall is it not a violent place. It is not a place you would think would ever have such a horrible crime take place. I know people who live in Aurora, who raise their kids there and shop in the stores. It is just another town, until now. Until the midnight showing of a movie changed that city's history forever.
I have lived in CO for 10 years. I moved here after Columbine but people still talk about it. It is something we all know about. We will never forget it. I don't live in Littleton but every time I think about how that community has never completely healed and probably never will. After I moved here there was a horrible high school hostage crisis near Conifer where one girl was killed and we all remember that too. Every time something like this happens we always ask our self 'WHY?'. It doesn't make sense why someone would do this to so many people. We can't comprehend it. But it makes you realize life is fragile and fleeting. It reminds you to focus on the big picture and be thankful for your loved ones. It reminds you there are crazy people everywhere even in movie theaters and walking the halls of a local high school.
The more I talk to people today in my northwest suburb the more I learn at least someone I know knows someone who either knew a victim or someone who was shot. The number is up to 71 shot and 12 died and out of the 71 shot 16 in critical condition. The numbers are frightening and horrifying . I heard on the local news someone say they didn't live here during Columbine but they remembered the name of the shooters but not the victims. They wanted us to learn the name of the victims and remember them. I encourage you to remember the names of victims not the shooter. Don't give him the 15 minutes of fame he is looking for. Don't glorify his act by giving him attention. Think of the victims and think of their families. Think of those mothers and fathers who won't ever hear from their teenage daughter or those families who went to the movies together and were trapped in the theater. Think of the young, think of the old, think of all the ones in between. I encourage you today to think of those lost and think of how we can prevent something like this happening again.
Today take a break from GH, believe me it has been horrible to watch anyway. GH is not what it used to be so today just take a break from it and all those other things that aren't truly important in the grand scheme of things. Today think of the bigger picture. We look to GH to escape, trust me today I wish there was a way to escape all this horror but we can't. So think and remember and pray for a world where it is safe to go to the movies and go to high school and to walk down the street. Pray for the families, friends and loved ones of these victims and hope for a brighter future.

Can't See The Rest of My Life Without Him
It is a tough couple of weeks to be a JaSam fan lately hasn't it been? We get a little glimmer of hope and then the wind gets knocked out of our sails once again. We really have to dig down deep for that courage and faith to keep on watching and fighting but I encourage you to do so.
I know most of you are selectively watching GH right now and trust me so am I. I could not take the Jizzer kiss yesterday. I had to FF thru it. I wasn't crazy about the McBam kiss though either. But to me it just looked like Calivia all over again. I was really waiting for one of them to sprout fangs and go at each other like they used to. The only chemistry McBam has is old left over vampire lust. Don't get too upset. RC is just screwing with us and also trying to maybe bring a few PC's fan back to GH. That is all. He is not stupid enough (I hope) to really make McBam a real item. I am still not abandoning the connection they feel for each other to be one that they are siblings. Or at least cousins. I mean look back, Ethan and Lulu were kind of hot before they found out they were siblings too and I did love them chemistry. So don't get too caught up in the idea of McBam.
Now for the idea of Jizzer 2.0 - Liz is terrible with relationships. She knows this, everyone knows this. She also can't be "friends" with Jason. She wants Jason that is true. Jason only turns to her when he sees Sam with another man. So what does that make her? Sloppy Seconds? Possibly but Liz has worked very hard to keep her inner husband stealing, whore self under control in the past year. So lets hope she has learned a few things like #1 - Jason only wants her as a stand in. #2 - Jason LOVES Sam no matter how much he tells her it is over. #3 - RC is just trying to get some spikes in ratings from the Jizzer lovers he isn't stupid enough to try to re-invent Jizzer 2.0.
Don't lose faith completely JaSam are not over. Jason and Sam still love each other more then anything. Though a lot has happened here is the truth:
#1 - RC really isn't stupid enough (and if he is Hell hath no furry like pissed off JaSam fans) to break Jason and Sam up for good.
#2 - Sam said it herself, 'I can't see Jason and I getting back together again. But I also can't see the rest of my life without him'. That is a big step today for Sam to admit this. She loves Jason we all know that but she also is starting to take small steps back towards Jason. Even though tomorrow she finds out Jason kissed Liz and might crush her even more. The fact still remains she is starting to take small (okay extremely small but they are still there) steps back towards him.
#3 - Heather is crazy and someone is going to figure her out very soon and that will mean JJ comes back and everything else will change.
#4 JJ is still alive. There is still hope.
Don't give up. I know it is hard! This is a really hard week. But just try to grit your teeth and keep watching and keep speaking out for JaSam. KEEP FIGHTING. CALL, WRITE, EMAIL, FB, Tweet - DON'T GIVE UP! It would be so easy right now to give up. Decide GH isn't worth your time because let's face it RC has done a number to our couple and show. But we have fought so hard for so long to keep GH on the air, do not give up now. Go to the root of the problem. RC is writing all over the board. He enjoys screwing with people and their characters. Let your voice be heard. Be positive and try to make it clear why you love GH. Don't let the current mess of the story lines take away all those years you have faithfully watched. Don't let him destroy your love for the show and your love for JaSam.
