This Thanksgiving, our turkey will be blessed with a side of Gilmore Girls. After being stuffed to the brim with an abundance of food and the sleepiness wears off, on Friday, our ears will be filled again with the gabbing girls and all of the shockingly relatable monologues. That being said, it seems only fitting that we use the show to look at Thanksgiving and remember that Stars Hollow is not far away.

1. You're back at your parent's house and you're rudely awakened by your mother at 8:00 AM.

2. You begin complaining about how you're not ready for the myriad of questions about school and how you don't want to talk to anyone.

3. Your mom asks why you're pre-gaming the pre-company pre-gaming.

4. Your company arrives, which sometimes includes your favorite cousin that you haven't seen since Christmas.

5. But with that cousin comes the other (littler cousins) that taunts you at every turn.

Darn munchkin.

6. It's time for dinner and that same blood related bully tries to get you to sit at the kid's table, but your parents tell you to sit with them.

7. However, as soon as you sit down and more adult topics that you're not sure you can contribute to come up, you realize that the kids table might have been a better choice.

8. But then you realize that the adult table is where all the drama is at.

9. You find out the Aunt Susan flew off the handle (again).

Which really isn't a surprise to anyone.

10. Uncle George brags about how he dislocated his toe, but it's okay because he "fixed it."

11. You find out the cousin Darla finally had her twins and Aunt Sherlie has photo evidence.

12. When the gossip dies down a little bit, your dad begins to whip out the jokes.

13. But then the attention turns to you and they begin to ask how you are.

14. You begin to start dodging all the intrusive questions that you can.

15. You try to turn the attention away from you.

16. They ask the "big question."

16. Your sibling senses your distress and tries to make sure you're okay.

16. At long last, dinner is over and you get to say sayonara to the family without trying to smile too much at their departure.

Happy Turkey Day!*

*And may the odds be ever in your favor.
