Boy, had a lot of things changed since that fateful night 6 years ago. Well, actually 6 years 3 months, 2 weeks, and 4 days (not that I'm keeping count). Well, where should I begin. I knew that I just couldn't return to Stars Hallow, not with my embarrising rant to – well you know, so I tried things with Chris. That backfired in so many ways I can't even begin to explain. So, I moved out from Chris's apartment and found an apartment in New Haven so I could be close to Rory. I took a job at the Hector's, the most amazing taco place on the east coast, but that only lasted a year, partly beacause because it reminded me a bit ot much of a certain diner, and partly because of other circumstances which I will get to in a moment. In the meantime, Rory had not been doing to well after the disappearence of Logan. Yes, he did call every so often, but his calls were infrequent and short. However, with the help of Paris, we sort of managed to get her up and going again. Then, about three months later, he came back. According to Rory, they had one amazing night, and then the next day that jerk told Rory that he had an amzing life going for him in England, that he had found a nice girl that lived right down the street from him. That night he jumped on a plane and was never to be seen again. Rory was devasted. Of course, 6 weeks later, Rory comes to see me looking worse than she ever had before, tears streaming down her face.telling "I'm pregnant" she told me.About 2 months after that, we found out that Rory was having twins, a boy and a girl. Rory graduated from yale with top honours, and very,very large stomach. Then, she tried as hard as her swollen ankles would let her to get her name out on the media circuit before the birth of my grancchiildren. On June 3rd (I know weird right?) Rory very painfully gave to my grandchildren; Lorelai (just had to keep the tradition going) Emily Gilmore, and Logan Richard Gilmore. It was that night that really changed everything. After the babies had been taken away, and before Rory fell asleep, Rory broke the news to me.

"Mom" she said in a worried tone

"what's wrong ?" I immediately got concerned

"Calm down" Rory reassured me. She took a deep sigh and continued, "I've gotten a job as a correspndent in Kingston… New York"

"I'm sorry… where?" I questioned

"You know Kingston we stopped there once for nuts on our way to New York"

Oh..right" I said. And then it hit me like a ton of bricks, "Does that mean your moving?"

Rory sighed. "I want you to come with me" she said

Rory wanted me to move with her to Kingston, New York. Wow. Imust have looked pretty stunned because Rory changed the subject, sort of.

" Look," she said "I'm exausted. Why don't you sleep on it tonight and we'lldecide tomorrow"

Three weeks later, Rory, Lori, Logan, and I boarded a train to Kingston, New York to begin our new lives.
