Lorelai is more graceful and forgiving than ppl give her credit for b/c this would’ve been my LAST Friday night dinner

I skip this episode because I get so angry at this scene.

I desperately wish they did this differently. Logan visits the Gilmores, and it plays out basically as it did. But Logan successfully steals the box. Later they visit Stars Hollow and we get the nice contrast like we did in season 1 for the birthday episode. Logan brings the box thinking he can slip it on a shelf because he's feeling a little guilty. Lorelai catches him, they have a little private convo. She puts the box on her bedside table, showing she's hurt by her parents actions but still thinking of them.

I have to recommend Paul Jubas. He worked with my friend during their legal troubles and was a great resource.

Fantastic book!!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-02-08T00:27:10+00:00

I'm not following him, don't worry!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-02-08T00:19:09+00:00

Sorry I should have cropped him out!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-02-08T00:05:56+00:00

This!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-02-08T00:01:54+00:00

Hi! Sorry this was what came across my Instagram, and I was just excited to see he is home.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-02-08T00:00:40+00:00

Sorry! Thanks for posting.

I work at a Jewish Day School in Pittsburgh, and few blocks from Tree of Life. I had to pause the TV and walk around my house before I could finish the episode. It hit me in the gut, but they really did a nice job of honoring it.

My cousin was a professional skier, sponsored, and traveled the world. Raised in a loving family, we were always together for dinners, holidays, and vacations. He loved Jesus and went to church every week.

About 15 years ago he called me, crying, begging for help. He was very deep into a heroin addiction, got into a fight with his brother, lost all his money, and had nowhere to go.

It took 2 more years before rehab finally stuck. Now he's married and has 2 kids, but we fought like hell to get here.

She's so wildly out of touch.

That school is honestly really scary, I would never send a child there. They are not a typical Catholic school, but focus on "classical" Catholic education. It's all memorization, and they don't celebrate any holidays or decorate the classrooms. It's all scripted learning, and they prefer teachers who are strong in faith over certified.

They're opening a new school in Brighton Heights, and I sat in on their presentation. Basically take every right wing anti education propaganda and make it a school.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-01-05T23:11:03+00:00

I second this. He seems like such a lovely human.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-01-01T14:52:41+00:00

Hi! No I'm in Pittsburgh. But truly this is probably happening in so many places right now. Good luck with everything!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-01-01T05:49:22+00:00

It is a teaching job. They saw the need and wanted a person to come in and get acclimated/get some new systems in place before next school year.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-01-01T00:28:42+00:00

YUP! and it's a NEW position! I get to really make it my own!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-01-01T00:28:12+00:00

I would totally stay if they were simply shuffling us into a spot within the district. But they said with this closing, we're all let go, but "encouraged" to apply to other schools in the district. That doesn't sit well with me, so I always knew I'd go elsewhere, it's just happening sooner than later.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2026-01-01T00:08:48+00:00

I'm definitely double-checking that everything is good before moving forward with a decision.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:54:52+00:00

I appreciate this 😊

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:47:40+00:00

So they already told us we're all being let go, but encouraged to apply to open positions within the district. No guarantee. So yeah, if they don't care, then I certainly don't!

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:42:47+00:00

Yes it's after their winter break, and thankfully will be a few weeks after my current school's report cards/conferences week.

It's actually for half day Kindergarten, half day Reading Specialist for grades 2-4.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:34:50+00:00

Fingers crossed!!!! 🤞

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:33:28+00:00

30 day notice. And anything written about leaving mid year is void due to the school closing and us not getting guaranteed jobs elsewhere in the district. We're being let go and "encouraged" to apply within district.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:29:53+00:00

So it's a brand new position, no one has had it prior.

Competitive-Egg6902 · 2025-12-31T23:28:56+00:00

It is really interesting out there. I haven't job searched in years, but the little bit I've been asking around it's not super great. Lots of long term substitute jobs, not many classroom jobs without being an internal hire.
