So, maybe I'm not far off....

Know how I'm always saying I want to be Lorelai Gilmore when I grow up? Well, I'm watching this week's episode (again) and Lorelai says the following two things.

This is Lorelai "can I have a forklift for my emotional baggage" Gilmore.

and

I had a shoe crisis that undid the whole ensemble.

So.....

Check off 2 items on my list of Lorelai traits.....my quest is nearing completion.

Shoe crisis, I can understand. Totally. Of course that's not necessarily a good thing.

Sarah Cate said...

Shoe crises (is that the right plural of crisis?) are the worst!

Jam, do you have shoe crises? I thought with the plethora of Converse...well, you have something for everything, right?

Cate, I agree. We all know how shoes can push me over the edge. The other great part is that she makes Luke wait 1 1/2 hours because she can't choose shoes...I tell ya, I'm her in the making!

Some dude waited an hour and a half for someone who couldn't pick shoes? That ain't right.

Bill C said...

That's what I'm talking about. "Something for everything" is deceptive. There's such a thing as too many choices. Red-left white-right? Or the reverse? How about gray-white? Which shade of green: neon, or fluorescent?

I'll let you in on a secret. If my shoes match it means I couldn't decide. Either that or I'm going to church.

They talk funny on that show, along with Dawson's creek.

Jam - not good. Very not good. I see the problem. I had a mini panic attack imagining making all those accesorizing decisions every day. Not good.

Omar - *sigh* You just don't get the beauty of the moment nor the importance of the perfect outfit.

Bluths - The do talk funny, but as a fellow funny, too-fast talker, I just love it!

"I always knew I wanted be somebody, but now I think I should've been more specific." Be choosy who you model yourself after, no?

"Now you too can be like the greatest superhero of all time - ME!"

The thing that gets me most amazed when watching the Gilmore Girls is exactly how fast they talk when they're really talking fast.

Someone people talk at a million miles per hour.

See, that speaking time makes up for the 1 1/2 hours of shoe waiting time plus some.

So it's all balanced in the end.

Heya Grendel....and congrats on continuing your string of obscure media references ;)

Jen...that was fabulous! Poor Luke probably appreciated the time to catch up to the morning's convo!

glo said...

Probably, but I still love them. The last few years have been a bit contrived because Hollywood doesn't understand that mothers and daughters don't *have* to hate each other....oh, well. I still want to be Lorelai.

wait until the DVD comes out with the cut episode where Lorelai and Rorye have a passionate yet awkard make up session.
