yes, i'm shameless in my enjoyment of the gilmore girls. after many a year of wondering what it is about a young mother and her daughter growing up in a small town ... i finally get it. cool (and completely unattainable) mother-daughter relationship. only a rebellious asian girl growing up with a conservative mother would understand. in any case, tonight, my gilmore-fascination coupled with the adrenaline rush of a thirty-second bidding war to make me completely and utterly happy. a happiness that can only be seconded to the reception of the said my-internet-connection-is-faster-than-yours won goods. aaaah, the onset of technology. who doesn't love it?
