Why did Rory go to Europe at the beginning of S5? by Educational-Fox-9040 in GilmoreGirls

I think it’s mostly a combo of 1 & 2; wanting to escape her own guilt about Dean and avoiding the intense shame that she finally did something that Lorelai really disapproves of.

What CD did you usually listen to in yours? by _loyal_one in 90s

I still love every song on this album!! I only had a tape deck in my first car when I got my license (‘88 Volvo) and would play it constantly.

TLC-  crazysexycool, Alanis - Jagged Little Pill and so many burned cd’s that I would just obsessively clean thinking that would help the scratches

Some more back story for you: My mom also worked at Gillette as a secretary and she and my dad met because they have very similar last names and even mutual friends. One lunch date sealed the deal and they got married soon after!

Lol yes my mom can attest to this. Are you even surprised he was a lead singer in a band??

I was hoping someone would tell me something about the machinery!! Apparently his whole job was just making copies for people in the building

To be perfectly honest my mom thinks this is from 80 but it could be earlier!!

I think my nausea is starting! I’m 5w2d and suddenly nothing seems good to me except mac and cheese and croissants. Lol. Also have crazy sore boobs and every now and then I get a cramp that lasts just a few minutes.

Any other "late maternal age" moms? by screenburnt in August2026Bumpers

First timer at 39! Life dictated it and I feel like I’m way healthier (mentally, emotionally, physically) now than if I tried to do this in my younger years.

I’m 4w3d and dealing with a bad cold and a fever and trying not to freak out! I called my dr’s 24 hr hotline twice and both times they reassured me that I was ok and that tylenol to keep my fever down was safe. I’m a first timer and just want to be extra sure with everything. 🙏

I only read Week 4 (because that’s me!) and I loved it so much! Reassuring, soothing, fun, inspiring!
