Girls best friend

If you are one of the few that actually know me...then you know I don't watch TV. However, you will find me stopping to watch during some commercial that strikes my funny bone. And usually if I even mention something to do with the boob tube then it has to do with just that. My latest one is the diarrhea commercial in the music store...I know it's getting a bit old now but it still tickles me.

However! Once in a fantastic while, one comes along that sparks some interest in me. A strange curiosity to see what may unfold and can actually hold my attention. I must say that I am now guilty of watching an actual TV program. And I have to say...That I absolutely LOVE the Gilmore Girls...
This is a show that I can relate to. The relationship between the Lorelei and Rory are so reminiscent of me and my daughter. The "buddy" aspect of the relationship and the way she treats her daughter as a peer versus a subordinate is the same. With still some mommy love and warmth thrown in. The show is amazingly written. The dynamic between the generations is displayed with an awesome perspective. A gem I have found and wear it proudly.

On a side note... I just posed a question to my daughter "Rachel? Do you have any intent on entering the shower before bedtime?" (I have been trying to goad her to take one for the last hour or so and she has been burying her head in the land of pretend with no regard for my words) She broke herself away..glanced at me with a mischievous smile and said "No..." very sweetly of course...little booger. Of course, some of you more stern parents might see this as deviousness or lack of respect. I happen to know her very well, she has my sarcastic personality and sense of humor and I know she will be wet and soapy here soon enough...
