It's been awhile, but...

I hardly ever post about Gilmore Girls anymore, but have no fear. I still love it. This week's episode was especially fantastic. For those of you who aren't avid watchers (and why aren't you?) let me sum up the season thus far: Rory is graduating from Yale in a few weeks and is lost about what she wants to do next. Lorelei married and divorced Christopher and is trying to rebuild a relationship with Luke (oh and Lane has twins, Kwan and Steve). So Rory has been rejected from a prestigious internship at the New York Times, passed over a job at ProJo, and the Chicago Sun-Times is not hiring. Basically she's freaking out with no job offers and she didn't apply to grad school (you know if Rory Gilmore was a real person she would have gone straight to grad school so I'm not really buying this whole plot line). So she, like 90% of the Class of 2007 is spazzing. What is she going to do, where is she going to live, will anyone hire her, is her college boyfriend Husband material? It's a scary time in people's lives and other than the fact that she would really be going to grad school at some Ivy League school, it's close enough to real life. Lorelei got drunk and sang "I will always love you" - the Dolly version, not the Whitney version. She started off singing it to Rory, but then Luke walked in. So she sang it to him. Brought tears to my eyes, not gonna lie (not gonna do it, wouldn't be prudent). And it kudos to Scott Patterson, he actually pulled it off. There was a Look between them, it was fantastic. (and he looked especially hot in this episode) This episode Will. Not. Be. Deleted. From. My. DVR. (get that Andrew? We're keeping it). It will be forever next to the series finale of The O.C. (and come someone explain to me why Seth's little sister wasn't a flower girl at his wedding? That's heartless. Heartless) Forever until we have to get rid of that particular DVR box anyway. Then of course Logan asked Lorelei for her permission to propose to Rory, but I already read spoilers on that. I'm really interested in if Lorelei and Luke are going to get together by the end of the series, which is in like 3 weeks, unless Alexis Bledel realizes that she will never get other work other than Rory Gilmore because she is terrible and has very bad bangs. But it will end soon, so I might as well accept that fact. Me and the Gilmore Girls, we've been together since the first episode when Rory got into Chilton. "I'm going to be in a Britney Spears video"? Classic.
