Black Friday was good for one thing: DVDs. We had no plans of actually going out to purchase anything, but with the need to run to the store to get a laptop for Carolina, I found myself browsing through the DVDs at Best Buy. Although the full Gilmore Girls series set was on sale for about $150, I already had two seasons and was looking for individual seasons (which were mysteriously missing from the shelves). One of the workers overheard me complaining to Luis and mentioned that they were located on a rolling cart. So off I went to find the cart. I was astonished to find that Gilmore Girls seasons 5-7 were $15 each! So I did what any logical person would do. I purchased seasons 6 and 7 (I already had season 5... one of my best friends,
Karina, came to my farewell testimony meeting before I went home from my mission and she brought this for me as a gift because she, like me, loves Gilmore Girls and knew how sad I was to have missed this entire season when I was serving).
Anyway, I woke up today still feeling exhausted from being sick, I called the office to let them know I wouldn't be coming in, and after sleeping for another couple of hours, I spent the rest of the morning in bed watching the 6th season of Gilmore Girls. I can't tell you how much I love this show. I remember the day I came home from my mission (after spending time catching up with my parents and hanging out with my siblings) there was nothing I wanted more than to be able to just sit on the couch and watch the above-mentioned Gilmore Girls. And I remember the sheer joy of hearing the theme song once again after being away for so long. I loved watching this show. And I cherish my DVDs of the show. These are the DVDs I always take with me on trips. I watch them on my laptop in the airport, and although they cause my carry-on to be extra heavy, it is a small price to pay for the hours and hours of quality entertainment they provide :)
