The Ways Gilmore Girls Just Gets Me {Now and Always}

If you are unaware, Gilmore Girls is an amazing TV show that aired from 2000-2007 on the WB/the CW following a single mother and her daughter in the fictional town of Stars Hollow Connecticut. It involves family, tension over money, take-out food, pop culture references, and lots and lots of coffee.  

Yes the dialogue is so fast-paced that the closed captioning on my Netflix can't keep up.  Yes, it's on Netflix so go ahead and binge away if your life is deprived of this show.  

I'm Team Jess, btw 

Also if you didn't hear, there was recently a reunion panel (see here and here).  Reunion movie, please?!

I'm re-watching the series right now on Netflix because getting to re-watch old shows you love/loved is amazing. This show just gets me sometimes.  It reminds me how silly high school was and how much of a baby I still was when I went away to college at 18 and thought I was so old.  Or how baller it would have been to have rich grandparents, haha. 

 I thought I'd share some snippets of times this show expressed exactly how I feel right now (and pretty much always).

Me, everyday, any time of day. Especially on Mondays. I just love coffee!

This is how I feel when I scroll through Instagram & Facebook and see beautiful selfies and girls with perfect hair and makeup. Even after a workout sometimes. I don't really have those girl skills. Or there's ladies kicking ass at workouts and runs and races. Motivation for sure, but sometimes it feels like I can't win, haha. I just am friends with and follow too many kick-ass women, as I've said before.

 THIS. How I feel every time I look at my to-do list and planner. Correction: multiple to-do lists.  There are never enough hours in the day, no matter how late I stay up. This is also going to ring true when I start classes in the Fall. Just gotta keep hustlin'.

Despite my affinity for November Project workouts and some other early day activities, I am not a morning person. I'm a big ol' night owl and need to break my rut of staying up really late because I've noticed I need more sleep in the past couple of years. This gif is ringing too true for me right now as I get ready to start marathon training again in a couple of weeks. 

Hello weekend morning long runs and waking up before the sun rises.

This is how my boyfriend and I react anytime we see cute little dogs on the street. Or on Instagram. Actually anytime I see any cute little animals pretty much. #obsessed

I've always been a romantic. While I adore old school romance and grand gestures, the older I get the more I realize that we all just actually want someone to come home to and hang out with after working all day. Someone who has to listen to you talk, do boring errands with you, and ends up being the person you spend the most time with. Love is more often being together through the mundane days rather than the really fun ones. And no one wants to die alone. 

Have you ever watched Gilmore Girls? What TV show do you love from the past that's now on Netflix or reruns?
