#remember when sookie was played by a fat actress and there were literally no jokes about her weight on the show? #remember how she wasn’t defined by her weight? #remember how she got to date and get married and have kids and not be just the token funny fat friend of the main character? #remember when she ~got her life together and was happy before lorelai and that wasn’t seen as threatening?

Richard: “Now, in planning our traditional first dance, I gave a lot of thought to the song that would represent the next phase in our marriage. The best phase, I believe. I went over all the greats; Bennet, Sinatra, Chuck Berry… and a story popped into my head. Now most of you know my daughter, Lorelai. Well, when Lorelai was three she went through a period of having chronic ear infections. It was terrible, screaming all night long, we couldn’t keep a nanny for longer than a week. So, it fell to Emily to sit with her all night long. She tried everything to calm her down. Finally, she found a song that seemed to soothe her. It was a popular song on the radio and it soon became Emily’s favorite. Of course, it drove me crazy. Some woman complaining about how she wanted to marry a man named Bill. Emily would tease me saying, ‘if only your name was Bill, this could be our song’. Well Emily, for tonight, and tonight only, my name is Bill, and this is our song.”
I say that all the time. Because it is.“Just once I’d like to be able to say, ‘Yeah, I’m not feeling so good, my leg is haunted.’”
