Sure, it would be nice to have someone to clean the house. I also suspect that I could be picky and bark orders as well as Emily. The one reason that I really want help around the house is simply because I want to blame things on the maid. Remember the episode where Logan let the maid take the fall for an item he had stolen? The few people I know who have hired help or cleaning services blame everything from missing items, tardiness, their own inability to cook and global warming on the maid. I would definitely never be able to be in that profession, you have to be the fall guy for everything. However, having a maid really would’ve come in handy when I was a kid.
For awhile I thought that I hated both Logan and Christopher the exact same amount. During a recent season seven episode I realized that I like Logan a lot more for one reason: his furniture. I really love the polka dot couch at his apartment with green and yellow dots all over it. I’ve been looking for something similar. Yes, I already have a couch but not a polka dot couch. Even online I can’t find anything that compares with it. I’ve found a lot of polka dot pillows, but it’s just not the same thing. What is your favorite piece of Gilmore Girls furniture?
I don’t watch the DVDs of the show everyday but I tend to make it through all of the seasons about once a year, whatever that averages out to. I just recently realized the significance of this conversation in season seven episode two:
RORY: There wasn’t really a point you know because I get it. He is starting his first real job. I mean, he needs time to adjust and focus and learn the lay of the land. I mean it’s good that he’s trying to be a grown-up. You no so now I’m trying to be a grown-up. So why am I gonna get all pouty because I don’t get to do it?
LORELAI: Well, that sounds like a real grown-up talking.
RORY: Thank you.
LORELAI: You know the one thing that grown-ups don’t call themselves?
RORY: What?
LORELAI: Grown-ups. Huh they say “adults,” and they pronounce it “ah-dults.”
RORY: It stinks!
LORELAI: Oh, it really stinks.
I always refer to people who are even a year or two older than me as “grown ups”. I do not consider myself to be in this category. So what do you say grown-ups or adults or peer group?
In the episode “The Lorelei’s’ First Day at Yale” Rory and Lorelei argue whether or not various famous people are dead or alive. I’ve often had this problem. I always seem to wonder about Bob Hope. I keep thinking “Wow he’s getting old.” when in fact he passed in 2003. I now have a new website that I adore called “Dead or Alive“. Type in any famous person’s name and it will come up with whether they are dead or alive. Sure, Google can do the same thing but that requires reading and I won’t get such a swift response to my “Dead or Alive” question.
