I'm just putting this out there. I want someone, somewhere to be asked out this way...

By Build-A-Bear,

With the voice box inside asking the girl out.

That way the girl can relive the moment as often as they want.

This has just been in my mind for a long time. I think it's ridiculously adorable. Seeing as you can't very well plan how you yourself get asked out, I thought this way somebody else would get the idea and it could happen for someone else. Spread the word. =]

Forever Families and adoption

Well, I will be having another new sister next September. After an insanely long process, my mom and step dad have finally been approved for adoption. We are getting to adopt a beautiful little Chinese girl. Next September we are going to fly to Taiwan (where she is right now) and spend a week there. At the end of that week, we will get to bring Alison home with us. We could not be more excited. All we have to do now is pray that God will provide us the funding for the completion of the adoption and the trip to bring her home. It's a lot of money. I'm not worried though. God will provide. He has blessed us so much and He is enabling us to be a blessing in this little girl's life. What more could we ask for. Keep us, and little Ali, in your prayers!

To new beginnings.

These last few weeks have been very difficult for me. I felt like my world was being turned upside down mainly because of two things. 1. I was in a car accident and 2. I "broke up" with my best friend. The car accident is easy enough to get past...Take my meds, see my doctor three times a week for the foreseeable future, and deal with lawyer stuff and I'll be okay.

The breaking up with my best friend... That was hard. It broke my heart. I'd been struggling for a long time trying to figure out what was the right thing to do in that situation... I hadn't been happy in quite some time though and truth be told, she probably hadn't been either for reasons that I won't get into right now... Now anyone that knows me well, knows that I am constantly taking on the burdens of other people. I'm a fixer. That's what I do, I fix things. If I have a friend having problems, I take them on and do my best to help them find a way through that problem. However in this situation...I was overloaded. I was stressed. I spent most of my time avoiding being home or crying. I spent SO much time praying for guidance. God has blessed me with some wonderful friends, and family as well, who have taught me recently that it is okay to ask for help. I can't tell you how much time I spent crying and asking Kyle, Andy, Nicole, and eventually my mom for advice on what to do. Collectively they helped me come to the decision that as much as I love my friend, she wasn't being the influence that I needed right now. She's strayed from the right path. And as much as I, as a fixer, wanted to "fix" her, it wasn't my place. It had gotten to the point where I needed to sever the ties and pray that God would work his magic. Special thanks to my friend Koree, who posted the lyric, "Sometimes the hardest the and the right thing are the same." She put this on facebook on a day when I was just about at my wits end. It helped me for sure realize what needed to be done.

This has been very difficult for me because she's been my best friend for the better part of 9 years. But when all was said and done, as sad as I was, I felt at peace. I felt as though I had done the right thing.

I've spent the last week on the beach with my family. It was very relaxing and wonderful. Now I'm home and I have to deal with real life again. So, once I can drive again, I will be returning to my house where I now have to fill the empty spaces. I think that it'll be good for me though. I'm ready for my new start. I'm ready to start having the fun that I'm supposed to be having in this time of my life. I'm ready.

Thanks to my wonderful friend Andy for reminding me of this fabulous verse.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.

James 1:2-3

God is great, isn't he?

Bring on CHRISTmas. =]

Update

I went to the chiropractor today. I found out that I have a bunch of torn ligaments in my neck and around my spine. It will take me at least 12 weeks before I even start feeling better. That means 12 weeks more of wearing a neck brace. Lovely. I am so luck though. The doctor told me that had I seen the accident coming, I would have tensed up and probably would have broken my neck. How lucky am I?

On a brighter note, Thanksgiving is next week and I get to spend the week on a beach with a beautiful baby. I'm so excited.

Things I'm thankful for: Good friends, parents that take care of me, and good medicine.

Thank you God.

So this past week has been...

...difficult to say the least. I was in a fairly bad car accident. Three cars were involved. I was sitting at a light. My light was green, but the light in front of mine was red so traffic was backed up and I couldn't go. Someone apparently was not paying attention and didn't see that traffic had stopped. She hit the car behind me, forcing them into me. The impact of the car hitting me was at 45mph which means that car number 1 had to have been going at least 55 in a 40mph zone. The impact was hard enough that it pushed me a good 200 yards. I coasted into a parking lot, but was unable to move my legs. They were pinned. Luckily, they weren't pinned badly and it was one leg pinned under the other, so it was nearly as bad as it could have been. Well, I've never been good in situations such as this, so I called my mother. I was in tears and I was hysterical. I don't know that I've ever been able to use that term literally, but this time, I was literally hysterical. I was having trouble controlling my breathing and I was freaked out because it hurt to move my legs. I had to be taken out of my car by firemen and was loaded onto a stretcher and had a brace put on my neck and was taken to the ER via ambulance. I can't even begin to tell you how nervous I was getting that something was really bad. I was stuck on my back in the ER for 4 hours waiting on results from my cat scan and x-rays. They all came back clear. I was released with a prescription for Hydrocodone, a knee immobilizer, and crutches. Five days later and one follow up visit later, I'm still in the knee immobilizer, utilizing crutches, wearing a neck brace, and on Hydros and muscle relaxers. I have a visit with a chiropractor on Wednesday and another visit to the Orthopedic doctor on the 29th. My knee is supposed to be okay. The doctor said he's pretty sure that it's just a deep bone bruise which could take up to 6 weeks to heal. I'm not sure what's going on with my neck yet, but we're pretty sure that it's just tissue and muscle damage. Our only worry is that I'll have neck problems later in life... However, we're hoping that my chiropractor will be able to prevent this.

To all you people out there that don't believe in God or angels... listen up. There are SO many things that could have gone differently. I could have easily been pushed into oncoming traffic. I could have broken my knee or neck. I could have been shoved into another car. Don't tell me that there weren't angels watching over me that night.

I thank God for his protection...Not only his protection of me, but of the people in the other cars. None of the children in the first car were hurt. The people in the car behind me are doing okay as far as I know, and I hopefully won't have any long lasting damage. Even if I do...at least I'm alive. Thank you Jesus for sending your angels to watch over us that night. You are so awesome.

And to all of my friends: Thank you guys so much for your get well wishes and your love. You guys are wonderful and I love each and every one of you. Thanks for caring about me. =]

Somebody to Love

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Each morning I get up I die a little

Can barely stand on my feet

Take a look in the mirror and cry

Lord what you're doing to me

I have spent all my years in believing you

But I just can't get no relief, Lord!

Somebody, somebody

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard every day of my life

I work till I ache my bones

At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own -

I get down on my knees

And I start to pray

Till the tears run down from my eyes

Lord - somebody - somebody

Can anybody find me - somebody to love?

(He works hard)

Everyday - I try and I try and I try -

But everybody wants to put me down

They say I'm goin' crazy

They say I got a lot of water in my brain

Got no common sense

I got nobody left to believe

Yeah - yeah yeah yeah

Oh Lord

Somebody - somebody

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Got no feel, I got no rhythm

I just keep losing my beat

I'm ok, I'm alright

Ain't gonna face no defeat

I just gotta get out of this prison cell

Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord!

Find me somebody to love

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

What the WHAT?!?!

I AM IN SUCH A GREAT MOOD!

I just found out that one of my wonderfully awesome friends from KS will be coming to MSU for college next fall. He will be living not even two minutes away from me. I get to be real life friends with him again and I could not be more excited about it! ALSO, one of my other wonderfully amazing friends is looking at coming down here. I CANNOT even begin to explain how stoked I am. Next year is going to be STELLAR. =]

Shout out to my lovelies in KS- Amy, Kayla, Matthew, Jason, Joey, and JORDAN WOOTEN (You're going to live by me! BAH!) I love you guys and I'm always missing you. Always.

Always,

Make a wish and place it in your heart. Anything you want, everything you want. Do you have it? Good. Now believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is going to come from. The next smile, the next wish come true. But if you believe that it's right around the corner, and you open up your heart and mind to the possibility of it, to the certainty of it, you just might get the thing you're wishing for. The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it with all of your heart.

I honestly do believe this. Do we get everything that we wish for? No, of course not. If we did, the wishes that did come true would not be nearly as precious. I know that I, for one, have many dreams and wishes, most of which probably won't come true. But I have faith in God and I know that the truly important things will happen when they're meant to happen. I just have to be patient and wait for them. This is so hard for me. I am not a patient person. I'm working on this with a little help from my Father.

"The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe in it with all of your heart."

²⁴For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? ²⁵But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

-Romans 8:24-25

Always,

Wow, so this week has been sucky. I've had a really bad cold all week and then yesterday I woke up with what I'm pretty sure was the 24 hour flu. I was so mad because I thought that my incredible weekend was going to be ruined. However, I woke up this morning and felt fine. Thank you, God.

So this weekend is happening. Tomorrow night at 9ish, I will get to see Brittany and Betsy! I'm so excited to spend the weekend shopping and catching up. It's going to be phenomenal. Then next weekend, it's back to O-Town! I won't get to see everybody, but I'll get to see the people in Fantasticks, and possibly Amy and Kayla? *fingers crossed*

Movie Quote of the Day:

Can you tell when a girl looks at you and is thinking how much she likes you and is wondering if you like her and thinking how important it is for you to say how you feel before she says anything more about how she feels about you or anyone else they might be jealous of because she's already said how she feels how she's said in her own way?

Always,

Oh man. Some days it's hard to say what could have possibly made your day any better. Today was phenomenal. I made homemade pizza with the girls at work. I colored for about an hour. I got to sleep in this morning. I get free dinner. It's a wonderful premier night. Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, The Big Bang Theory, and My Generation. I love today. In 15 days I got to see Brittany and Betsy for a wonderful weekend. In 22 days I get to see Amy, Kayla, Joey, Swenson, Jason, and others. I CAN'T WAIT. Life is SO good.

Always,

I GET TO SEE MY BEST FRIEND IN 16 DAYS!!! I can't wait. She's coming to visit me for a weekend. We're going to spend the entire weekend shopping in Branson, shopping downtown, eating at fun restaurants, and watching movies. It's going to be splendid and I CAN'T WAIT. The weekend of the 8th can't come soon enough. BAH! =]

Always,

Perfectly Imperfect

"I'm not a perfect girl. My hair rarely stays in place. I spill a lot of things and I'm pretty clumsy. But when I take a step back and think about it, I remember how life truly is. And maybe...I like being imperfect."

I couldn't have said it better myself. Hence, the quote. To elaborate though...I'm really not perfect.

-I'm VERY clumsy. I'm constantly falling over things.

-I tend to say things before really thinking about them. My foot gets stuck in my mouth frequently because of it.

-I procrastinate.

-I forget simple words a lot. They just disappear from my brain.

-I'm emotional.

-I have a quick temper, however I'm fairly good at keeping it under control.

-My room is almost always a disaster.

-I can't cook. I can if I have a VERY descriptive recipe to follow. It still never turns out like it should.

-I don't like talking on the phone.

-I rarely take good pictures. I'm almost always sticking my tongue out or crossing my eyes or some other silly thing.

-I watch way too much tv.

-I'm addicted to shows like OTH.

-I'm a grouch in the mornings.

I know that maybe I'm not someone that everyone would like. I know that I'm imperfect. However I like that about me. I wouldn't want to be perfect. That's too much to live up to. Somewhere out there, there is some wonderful perfectly imperfect man who will love the perfectly imperfect me and we will live forever in perfect imperfection. I can't wait. =]

Always,

This may seem pathetic and sad...

I miss high school. I know. Four words I never thought I'd say. I do though. Those years may have been filled with pointless drama, but they were also filled with many friendships. The memories from those years will never leave me and I can always look back at the pictures and videos of the people that I thought would always be in my life. It makes me really sad that a lot of those people are just that...memories. People I loved, still do love, and probably always will love that just simply faded out of my life. People like Kristi Hanson. That is one girl that I miss a lot. We had our ups and downs, but when we had our downs we talked it out, cried on each other's shoulders and were okay again. Now we're not even facebook friends? There are also my friends that we're "keeping in touch." That pretty much means we facebook stalk each other but never really talk. How did my life change so drastically? Luckily, I still have a few of those wonderful high school friends. I still have a few people that I know I can still call whenever I need to. It sucks that I have to call or skype just to hear their voices, but hey, you take what you can get... And for those of you that I know I can still tackle in a hug the next time I see you...I'm SO thankful that I have you. You will never know how much I love you and miss you. If you're one of those I've drifted from or vice versa...I miss you. Please come back.

So yes, I do miss high school. I miss having one largely dysfunctional theatre family that I knew was always there. I love each and every member of that family and probably always will, even if I only have the pictures to remember them by.

Always,

Okay, if you're reading this, brace yourself. It's going to be a lot of complaining and getting everything that's bogging my mind down out of my mind so that maybe I can sleep decently tonight.

1.) I love my best friend to the ends of the world. I'm also very frustrated with her right now. Not technically her, but the situation. I still find it insanely unfair that she gets out of a relationship and not two days later she's in another one. I've been looking for someone for ages. I know, I know. It's just not in God's plan for me right now. Maybe when I stop looking my prince charming will appear. What a crock. (Not the God thing, the stop looking thing.) I just feel like it's not fair. Why don't I deserve to have someone to share my life with? Why must I be stuck watching everyone else in their adorably happy bliss? How is that fair? I'm SO genuinely happy for all of my friends who seem to be finding love, but it doesn't take the sting away that nobody out there finds me worthy of love. But I guess that's what you get when you're the girl that guys are friends with and not the girl that guys date.

2.) HOLY CRAP. I hate studying for psych. There's just way too much that's deemed IMPORTANT. It's impossible to know what's truly important when it all seems to be that way. I really would just like to throw my book at the wall, rip up my notes and notecards, and be done with it. I'll love the class again as soon as this test is out of the freaking way.

3.) BOYS. UGH. (That's all about that one.)

4.) I love my new puppy but he drives me insane as well. He's the sweetest dog in the world until he wants to play when I still have 30 minutes left of sleep time in the mornings...

5.) I'm missing my friends Amy, Kayla, and Joey something fierce. I could really use a group hangout/hug from them.

6.) There's so much more on my mind that I can't even focus on it enough to separate it to write it down. So I guess that's where this little rant ends.

My apologies.

Always,

A girl and guy can be just friends, but only for a time. At one point they will fall for each other. It may be temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe (if they're truly lucky) forever.

Someday everything will make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

Blast from the Past.

Remember the good old days? Here are some of my most missed shows.

Here's to the good old days.

I've been feeling very sentimental lately. I started looking through old picture albums and they made me realize just how much I miss people. Here are just a few of my favorites. =]

Just so that everyone knows...I love you. I miss you and I'm terribly sorry if I haven't kept up with you.

As always,

Week One of classes: Over and done.

Call me a nerd, but I actually enjoy school. I really do. Most of the time. Week one of classes is now over and I have already gotten a bazillion hand cramps from note taking. Not so fun. My notes are in pretty colors. Very fun. I love all of my professors. They're fantastic. I am going to ADORE my comp class. It's such an entertaining group of people. My sides hurt from laughing so much after my first day. =]

DOWNSIDE of school: H.O.M.E.W.O.R.K.

And GOBS of it. None of it has been terribly difficult as of yet, but there has been a surplus

of it. In every class, with the exception of piano. Speaking of my piano class...It makes me feel wicked cool to have a secret code to let myself into the Gillioz theatre for that class. I just feel awesome punching in that code. I know, I'm a weirdo.

As much as I'd love to stay on here and write a ton of more pointless things, I have a paper to write. =|

As always,

PS. If you have time, PLEASE go and see Vampire's Suck. It's so stupidly funny that you'll be glad you did. =]

Oh man.

There is nothing like staying in and watching movies like The Princess Bride with some of your best friends and talking to the boy you like. It's just so relaxing. It just makes you feel like nothing in life can go wrong. It just feels good.

On the down side...School starts on Monday. I'm not so upset about this as my brain would like to think. Am I sad that I must say goodbye to my free time? Yes. Am I excited to get back to homework? Not a chance. Am I glad to have the social aspect of school back? Absolutely.

I'm missing my Olathe friends something fierce. I know that they're all having a great time with college. Or senior year as it may be for some of them... I hope they all know that I love them and that I miss them.

I guess I shall get back to my wonderful movie.

As always,

A tribute to an all time favorite:

Gilmore Girls, in my opinion, has got to be one of the absolute best shows of all time. It will forever be a favorite of mine.

-[Lorelai's having Rory]

Young Lorelai: Okay, this is a big pain and I'd really like it to go away, please.
Nurse: Just breathe deep, honey.
Young Lorelai: Breathing doesn't help, can I hit you instead?
Nurse: What?
Young Lorelai: Or pinch you really hard, 'cause that might make me feel better.
Nurse: No, you cannot hit me.
Young Lorelai: Can I bite you or pull your hair or use the Epilady on you 'cause I really need to do something.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: What happened? The reception on the phone sucked. All I heard was "Rory" and "Chilton" and "Get down here." Whose butt do I have to kick?
Rory: We didn't go to breakfast.
Lorelai: What are you talking about?
Rory: We came here. They broke into the headmaster's office as the big initiation.
Lorelai: Ugh, those stupid girls.
Rory: Uh huh. Part of the initiation was ringing a bell. So, that's what I was doing when security showed up and they called you.
Lorelai: That's what you got busted for? That's it? Bell-ringing?
Rory: Yes.
Lorelai: Were you at least smoking a Cuban cigar while you were doing it?
Rory: Mom.
Lorelai: No, I mean, "bad girl, how many times have I told you not to ring bells?"
Rory: [interrupting] Let's go.
Lorelai: [continuing] "They can dent, or scratch, and they make dogs go crazy. Who do you think you are, the Hunchback of Notre Dame? Are you French? Circular? I don't think so."
Rory: I'm walking to the car now.
Lorelai: [later] Was it a big bell at least?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: Can I use the fun cutter thingy?
Luke: Not if you call it the fun cutter thingy.
Lorelai: Please?
Luke: Cut the boxes, not your hands.
Lorelai: Good tip, you should teach!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rory: Oh, I'm sorry. You wanted a party? I told everyone you didn't want to make a big deal out of your birthday this year.
Lorelai: You're not funny.
Rory: Ms. Patty and Babette wanted to hire these two hot guys to carry you around all day and feed you Bon-Bons, and Kirk wanted to hire the Red Hot Chili Peppers to play a concert in the square, but I said "Hey, please, respect the lady's wishes. She deserves that at her age.'"
Lorelai: Why are you so cruel to mama?
Rory: I have to go.
Lorelai: Where?
Rory: None of your business.
Lorelai: You *are* planning something for Friday night, aren't you?
Rory: I'll bring back Chinese for dinner.
Lorelai: And you tell people, no matter what they say, I just couldn't accept a new car. It would be beneath me and I would be completely humiliated. And a convertible would just make me fling myself off a building!
Rory: Bye.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Emily: You were on the phone?
Richard: Long distance.
Lorelai: God?
Richard: London.
Lorelai: God lives in London?
Richard: My mother lives in London.
Lorelai: Your mother is God?
Richard: Lorelai...
Lorelai: So, God *is* a woman.
Richard: Lorelai.
Lorelai: *And* a relative. That's so cool. I'm gonna totally ask for favors.
Richard: Make her stop.
Rory: Oh, that I could.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luke: Rory's not here yet.
Lorelai: Then you'll have to entertain me until she arrives. Okay Burger boy, dance.
Luke: Will you marry me?
[Lorelai is taken aback]
Luke: Just looking for something to shut you up.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: Hey, you didn't wake me up.
Rory: I set the clock.
Lorelai: Yes, but see, the clock stops ringing once I throw it against the wall giving me ample time to fall back to sleep. You, however, never stop yapping no matter how hard I throw you, thus insuring the wake up process.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: Heh, you know what I just realized? "Oy" is the funniest word in the entire world.
Rory: Hmm.
Lorelai: I mean think about it, you never hear the word "oy" and not smile. Impossible. Funny, funny word.
Emily: Oh dear God.
Lorelai: "Poodle" is another funny word.
Emily: Please drink your drink, Lorelai.
Lorelai: In fact, if you put "oy" and "poodle" together, in the same sentence, you'd have a great new catchphrase, you know? Like, "Oy with the poodles already."
Rory: Hehe.
Lorelai: So from now on, when the perfect circumstances arise, we will use our favorite new catchphrase:
Rory: Oy with the poodles already.
Lorelai: I'm telling you, it's knocking "Whatchu talkin' 'bout, Willis?" right out of first place.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: I think I have gangrene.
Rory: You do not.
Lorelai: And vertigo.
Rory: Oh boy.
Lorelai: And one leg suddenly feels shorter than the other.
Rory: This is gonna be the Vanity Fair paper cut incident all over again, isn't it?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luke: The truth hurts.
Lorelai: No, you know what hurts. Having a screwdriver jammed in the side of your head.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[many alarm clocks go off]
Lorelai: You are hilarious.
[Going down the stairs]
Lorelai: Okay, see, last night when I said to you: "Tomorrow, no matter what, make sure I get up at seven," what I actually meant was: "tomorrow, no matter what, make sure I have the option of getting up seven, in case, when seven comes, I actually wanna get up." Which, as it happen, I didn't. Therefore, you're currently responsible for the great alarm clock slaughter of 2002.
Luke: No survivor?
Lorelai: The one shaped like a bunny escaped with a mild decapitation.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: My life stinks. Hey, let's look into each other's eyes and say "I wish I were you" at exactly the same time - maybe we'll pull a Freaky Friday.
Rory: Or we can just pretend that we did and you can go around acting really immature. Oh, wait...
Lorelai: I can't believe you won't switch bodies with me.
Rory: Forget it. Then I'd have to date Kirk.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rory: We go. We look. Hi Yale. Bye Yale. It's over. No harm. No foul.
Lorelai: How many more two-word sentences can you come up with?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: Lately I've been having these dark premonitions.
Rory: About what?
Luke: [handing Rory and Lorelai their food] Dead cow... and dead cow.
Lorelai: That's weird.
Rory: He's always weird.
Lorelai: No, I mean my premonitions have been about death... about *my* death.
Rory: I don't want to hear this!
Lorelai: And the thing is, they're all silly.
Rory: What do you mean silly?
Lorelai: In one, I slip on a banana peel and fall into a giant vat of whipped cream.
Rory: Silly and fattening.
Lorelai: In another, a turtle eats me.
Rory: A turtle? How?
Lorelai: Very slowly. There's *lots* of chewing.
Rory: And in your premonition you didn't run away from what is perhaps the slowest land animal on earth?
Lorelai: His first bite injects me with immobilizing poison.
Rory: Well, you left that part out.
Lorelai: This last one's a little more gory. I'm hunting...
Rory: [interrupts] A favorite Lorelai Gilmore pastime.
Lorelai: ...and my shotgun backfires. My whole face spins around a bunch of times and winds up in the back of my head like Daffy Duck.
Rory: That's the silliest one yet!
Lorelai: Now if that's how I go, you have to promise to move my face back to the front of my head like Daffy did with his beak.
Rory: I should really be writing this down.
Lorelai: You can remember to move my face to the front of my head.
Rory: It depends on what I have going on that week.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rory: Who are the rosary beads for?
Lorelai: They're mine.
Rory: What do you need rosary beads for?
Lorelai: They're cute.
Rory: They're for prayer.
Lorelai: Well, pray they match my blue suit.
Rory: They've just upgraded you to a queen-size bed, jacuzzi tub, junior suite in hell.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: How ya doing there, champ?
Rory: Early.
Lorelai: Yes, it's a tad early.
Rory: No sun.
Lorelai: Well, he's not up yet.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rory: When is dinner ready?
Lorelai: Do I look like a timer?
Rory: I thought you might have set one.
Lorelai: Silly rabbit.
Rory: Timers are for kids

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: 'Mom, I'm getting married.' I'm an idiot. And you know, as my mouth was opening my mind was screaming, 'Don't do it, I mean it, you'll regret it.' But did my mouth listen?
Rory: No.
Lorelai: No. And it opened and the words came out, and Emily was Emily, and my mouth was stunned. And my mind said 'I told you so.' And then my mouth got mad because no mouth like's to have it's nose rubbed in it. And now my mind and my mouth aren't talking, and it'll be weeks before we can get the boys together again.
Rory: Your mouth has a nose?

Luke: So, back from the ball huh?
Lorelai: Yes, I left behind a glass slipper and a business card in case the prince is really dumb.
Luke: Good and desperate thinking.
Lorelai: Thank you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: Luke, we sleep around here. Okay, we like it. It makes us pretty and keeps us from killing our crazy friends.

Lorelai: Hey, I should bring steak sauce, right?
Rory: For what?
Lorelai: Pizza.
Rory: I just got back from Italy.
Lorelai: So?
Rory: So they'd shoot you in Italy for that.
Lorelai: Ah, but this is America, where we unapologetically bastardize other countries' cultures in a gross quest for moral and military supremacy.
Rory: I forgot. Bring on the imperialistic condiments

Lorelai: [while on the phone with each other, Lorelei and Rory are watching their Roombas together] Is this more or less fun than watching the same TV show at the same time?
Rory: I think more.
Lorelai: If we were to die right now and decompose, they would vacuum us up. No one would ever know.
Rory: Freaky.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai: Stop saying "mother" like that.
Rory: Like what?
Lorelai: Like there should be another word after it.

Lorelai:Oh I can't stop drinking the coffee...I stop drinking the coffee, I stop doing the standing and walking and the words putting into sentence...doing.
