Things That Annoy Me Thursday: Husband Not Getting Excited Over New Gilmore Girls Episodes

It has been hinted that episodes of Gilmore Girls might be returning to Netflix. But nothing was confirmed.

Until Lauren Graham, who played Lorelei, shared this on her Twitter account:

I CAN NOW CONFIRM: it's time for me, and this jacket I stole in 2007, to return to work.@netflix #GilmoreGirls pic.twitter.com/tBb07J9oO1

I shrieked with happiness, causing my cat Max to glare at me, because he was on his 32897th nap of the day and I dared to wake him.

But I couldn't help it. Gilmore Girls is one of my favorite shows. I even did a blog post on why it's my favorite show. I wanted my husband to cheer with me, but when I told him he was like:

Then he continued with, "Isn't that the one with the annoying "la-la-la" music?"


I was offended:

"That's classic!" I hissed. "It makes the show!"

"It makes the show annoying as all shit."

"But you do laugh when it's on," I reminded him.

"Until the 'la-la-las' come on. I also wonder when the girls will stop talking."

"Oy with the poodles already!" I snapped at my husband. "Ruby!" I yelled when I noticed my other cat walk in the room. She flinched. "Ruby, you're excited that Gilmore Girls is returning, right?" I scooped her up, but then she bit me.

I knew Tommy wouldn't care--he's a male teenager and if it doesn't have boobs, isn't food, or isn't on his PS4 or WiiU, he's not interested.

So then I found my daughter and I told her and she was like:

Yay! Proper excitement!
