So it's entirely possible that I may have finally decided to sit down and watch the Gilmore Girls (last night. sleep? what's that?) and I have found myself on television because Rory, honey, that's pretty much me in a babble-y, awkward, shy, nutshell. I'm just not as skinny.
Also twink-y!Sam, aka Dean (at which I lost it, approx 3 min into the first episode) is one skinny, hot, debauchable, man-child. I feel slightly dirty because he looks about 16, but damn. I'd hit that from the back, turn it around, and hit it again, which as I'm re-reading this sentence makes absolutely no sense since I have no penis, but you get the gist of what I'm saying.
Rory also looks like she's about 13-14, not 16 in this first season. Not many shows have main teen characters that look younger than the characters are purported to be.
Josh:
Ok. So. Josh is my guy friend that is a pretty new acquisition. He's cute and I may like him and he may like me, or at least things are seemingly trending that way. SO. Josh's grandpa is in pretty bad health and he's had to be put in the nursing home because he needs round the clock skilled nursing care. Josh and his mum Mary came up to help settle him in, etc, and so we make plans to hang out the next day but only til about 5 pm because I'm suppose to go to a new exercise class with an old friend who I'm reconnecting with. So I get to the Bungalow, (which is totally what they're calling their vacation home) and we end up going shopping about an hour away with his mum and his other-side grandmum, who I got to meet, and Josh totally was sweet and we have strangely similar music tastes (Pavarotti, Beatles, Aerosmith, etc.).
Then we dropped off other-side grandmum and (since we were pretty close and Mary was driving) went to go check on new-in-the-nursing-home-Grandpa. (some how i've ended up meeting 2 of his grandparents?) and his mom was all telling me his plans to open his own restaurant in the next 5 years and silly things he did as a kid and it was nice. Then he decided that he should cook supper for us so we went to the grocery store, since they had no food at the Bungalow, and Josh with a shopping cart in the store that sells food is like a tall two year old on speed. (I had to call my friend and cancel because I ended up staying at the Bungalow playing video games until 2130 and I had to go to work that night at 2245.)
So getting to know his mum, check. Meeting 2 grandparents, check. Learning life plan, check. Similar music tastes, check. Getting cooked for again, check.
Thinking: this might be awesome, check.
