Indeed it did list what it was going to remove. I misread it and went
along my merry "pressing y" way lol.

Looks like I was able to fix it. I reinstalled gdm and then set it as
the default desktop manager. Everything seems fine now again.

haha no, I didn't use -y. I'm not *that* new around here lol

Thanks again for the help everyone. I appreciate it. I just need to
learn to read a bit more before assuming things will just work out.
