WEBVTT - Miss ValenTORI sTORI

0:00:08.760 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Misspelling with Tori Spelling and iHeartRadio podcast.

0:00:15.120 --> 0:00:19.320
<v Speaker 2>Oh Boy, it is officially Valentine's Week.

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.919
<v Speaker 3>Valentine's Week. You know what.

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:29.360
<v Speaker 2>It's so funny because I am such a believer in love,

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Like my journey has gone ebbs and flows when it

0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:41.160
<v Speaker 2>comes to love, obviously, but yet at the core, I'm

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:43.520
<v Speaker 2>still a romantic and I'm still a.

0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:45.320
<v Speaker 3>Believer in love.

0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:51.360
<v Speaker 2>I love love. I've always loved love. Funny probably unknown

0:00:51.400 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 2>fact is I used to hate hearts. I used to

0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:59.480
<v Speaker 2>hate hearts. I'm not even sure. I remember that one

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>time Dean got me a present. It was jewelry, and

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 2>I called my best friend Moran because he was always

0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:07.800
<v Speaker 2>like what do he get you?

0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:08.399
<v Speaker 3>What do he get you?

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:14.480
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, okay, he got me something that

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:17.759
<v Speaker 2>is beautiful, but it is so not me. It's something

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:21.120
<v Speaker 2>I technically hate. And he's like, no, he got you

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:24.240
<v Speaker 2>a heart necklace. I'm like bingo. I'm like, and he's like,

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.120
<v Speaker 2>you hate hearts, and I'm like, I know, but I

0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 2>feel bad. I feel like and he's like, everybody knows

0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:32.520
<v Speaker 2>you hate hearts. I'm like, well, I guess he didn't

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 2>know that one. And it was so lovely, but the

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>funny part is this was in the heyday of me

0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:43.280
<v Speaker 2>being like, love is great, love is beautiful. I love

0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:47.320
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day, but yet I hated hearts. And now I

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:51.360
<v Speaker 2>am very kind of anti Valentine's Day and I love hearts.

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:52.960
<v Speaker 3>Just didn't line up.

0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so for me Valentine's Day, and I know

0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 2>it means something to everyone differently, and that's fine. I'm

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:09.320
<v Speaker 2>just telling you my experience is growing up my mom

0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:13.560
<v Speaker 2>and dad they were married over twenty five years when

0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 2>my dad passed way longer, over thirty years, I think,

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 2>but they never ironically, they had this amazing romance. They

0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:29.640
<v Speaker 2>never celebrated holidays alone ever like my brother Randy and I,

0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, every year on their anniversary, we all went

0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:34.360
<v Speaker 2>out to dinner. It wasn't like my mom and dad

0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:39.280
<v Speaker 2>went out to dinner. And Valentine's Day. I grew up

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 2>never seeing it from a child's perspective as a romantic

0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 2>holiday because it was very family skewed and something I

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:52.440
<v Speaker 2>really loved tradition, and something that was part of my

0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:56.560
<v Speaker 2>tradition growing up is that every Valentine's Day, my dad

0:02:56.720 --> 0:03:00.359
<v Speaker 2>would get all of us a box of candy from

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:04.880
<v Speaker 2>seas candy, and my brother and I would get like

0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 2>smaller ones. My mom would get a big one, and

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 2>that was like his big thing.

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:11.399
<v Speaker 3>He always got us red roses, which.

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:14.800
<v Speaker 2>I ironically, if you know, you know, I'm not a

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 2>big fan of roses. I love flowers, but not roses,

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 2>and I specifically don't like red roses. I don't know why,

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 2>but he would always get us red roses, but it

0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:29.720
<v Speaker 2>very much was ingrained in me from a child that Valentine's.

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.519
<v Speaker 3>Day was all about the kids. It was like a

0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:34.960
<v Speaker 3>kid's holiday, which to.

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 2>This day because I always go back to like family

0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:42.320
<v Speaker 2>traditions and I integrated. We have new traditions with my

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:44.640
<v Speaker 2>kids and I, but I always bring a piece of

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 2>my childhood traditions into their lives, which I think is

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 2>kind of cool. To this day, I still get my

0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:54.720
<v Speaker 2>kids every Valentine's Day a box, a heart shaped box

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 2>from Seas Candy, because it makes me think of my

0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.440
<v Speaker 2>dad and what he would get up and it's just tradition.

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 3>Well, last year it was Valentine's Day and I was like,

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:08.640
<v Speaker 3>oh my gosh.

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Seize candy. Oh my gosh, I blew it. I didn't

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:16.360
<v Speaker 2>get to seize candy, so I'm like, okay, racing. It

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 2>was like almost kids pickup time, and once I picked

0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.560
<v Speaker 2>them up in school, I don't get a moment to myself.

0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 3>So I got to get the presence.

0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:27.680
<v Speaker 2>So I was literally like, oh my god, I got

0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 2>to get to seize candy. And I remember I was

0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 2>in the parking lot to seize candy and I was

0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.719
<v Speaker 2>trying to find it's the one I was going to.

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 3>It's in a strip mall. There's other places around.

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:41.159
<v Speaker 2>I think at home Goods. I always remember where everything

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:45.479
<v Speaker 2>shopping wise is in a good poke bowl restaurant that

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 2>I digress anyway, And I was trying to find parking

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:52.920
<v Speaker 2>spot and seize candy Valentine's Day. Hello, It's like there's

0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:57.479
<v Speaker 2>you know, men galore being like, oh shit, I didn't

0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 2>get her candy. I got to get in there. So

0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:01.279
<v Speaker 2>there's like a lot out the door and I'm like,

0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, I have thirty mens to get to

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:03.120
<v Speaker 2>pick up.

0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:03.920
<v Speaker 3>What am I going to do?

0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:06.800
<v Speaker 2>And I went, I don't know if you're this person,

0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:09.719
<v Speaker 2>but I'm this person when it comes to parking. I

0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:13.080
<v Speaker 2>always believe whoever gets the spot first gets the spot.

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 2>And I also don't believe in confrontation. So if someone

0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:20.039
<v Speaker 2>else gets to that spot and it should have been mine,

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:21.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm never going to start a fight.

0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:25.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm always going to be like, Okay, womp, womp, you win.

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:30.760
<v Speaker 2>But I remember specifically, and I don't like to sexualize

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:32.479
<v Speaker 2>things because I think as.

0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 3>Women, we win.

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:39.400
<v Speaker 2>But I was trying to park and two men snatched

0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:42.279
<v Speaker 2>two parking spots for me. I just remember by the

0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:43.520
<v Speaker 2>second one, I was like.

0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 3>What is going on? It's a female holiday. I don't

0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:51.440
<v Speaker 3>even believe in that. I was like, it's Valentine's Day,

0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:55.159
<v Speaker 3>give me the spot. I was here first.

0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 2>You wouldn't have even been here if it wasn't for women. Anyway,

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.159
<v Speaker 2>got in, I got my candy, got out, and I

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:03.599
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh my.

0:06:03.600 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 3>God, I got to get there. I got to get

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:05.800
<v Speaker 3>to pick up.

0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 2>And I'm driving and as I'm driving and I have

0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:11.240
<v Speaker 2>to make a turn and then get on the freeway.

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Have you been driving?

0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:16.280
<v Speaker 2>And there's like little there's like stands. People are selling

0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 2>things on the corner. And this man was selling all

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>of the marketable Valentines.

0:06:26.440 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 3>I like to say, because it's just it was too much.

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, there are the flowers, there are the teddy bears,

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:35.159
<v Speaker 2>and oh my god, when the carnations are spray to color,

0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 2>it really throws me over the edge. Lots of those

0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, milar balloons. It was just like Valentine's Day,

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Like Hallmark A Step Beyond had thrown up on this

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:49.000
<v Speaker 2>corner and this guy was selling it and outrageous prices

0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:52.520
<v Speaker 2>because you know what they're thinking. Everyone's coming to this intersection.

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 2>You got to turn to get on the freeway. There's

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 2>a gas station here at this corner. So I'm going

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:59.760
<v Speaker 2>to sell all of this here because people are going

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 2>to hole over and they're gonna buy it because they're

0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna be like, oh my god, I waited the last minute.

0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:09.640
<v Speaker 2>I didn't get my present. And he's smart. That guy's smart.

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 3>He was right.

0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:13.480
<v Speaker 2>So right as I was about to turn, and I'm

0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 2>looking at all of this and I'm just thinking, ugh.

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.280
<v Speaker 2>At this time last year, you know, I was just

0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 2>getting out of an eighteen year marriage and I was

0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.120
<v Speaker 2>seeing someone. But it was like, you know, I was

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 2>kind of anti Valentine's Day, and I was just like,

0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 2>oh God, look at all these suckers. Valentine's Day. Valentine's

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 2>Day sucks. And right as I'm like saying this out

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:40.680
<v Speaker 2>loud to myself in the car. This man was like

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day amazing. I got to pull over and get

0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 2>my girl something and he cuts in front of me.

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:47.840
<v Speaker 2>And as he cuts in front of me to buy

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:49.840
<v Speaker 2>this stuff that was being sold on the corner, I

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:53.240
<v Speaker 2>was like, Valentine's Day sucks. Oh my gosh, there's a

0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:56.120
<v Speaker 2>car in front of me. So I swerve to get

0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 2>out of this lane. And while I swerve, a guy

0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:05.920
<v Speaker 2>is merging and we bump. I say we bump because

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:07.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess technically it was my fault.

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 3>But I was just trying to do the right thing.

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>I was trying to save this man that was selling

0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>all of this vomitous Valentine's Day on the corner to

0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.239
<v Speaker 2>support his family. I was trying to save him from

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 2>getting like run over by this guy that was like,

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, I didn't get my wife something. She's

0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:27.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna be so mad. I got to pull over, so

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.960
<v Speaker 2>I think I was doing the right thing, and he

0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:32.240
<v Speaker 2>was merging, so technically was my fault. So we pull

0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.840
<v Speaker 2>over and he's like, you know, pull over. So we

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:40.960
<v Speaker 2>park and I get out of the car and I said,

0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:45.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. You know what, I guess this is my fault.

0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:49.880
<v Speaker 3>I gotta tell you. I'm like, fucking hate Valentine's Day.

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 2>And he goes, what and I go, yeah, I hate

0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:57.160
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day and he goes me too, and I was like, oh.

0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:58.360
<v Speaker 3>My god, Yeah, it just sucks.

0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 2>It's just like marketing, like it's just you know, spend

0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.240
<v Speaker 2>all your money on this holiday that means nothing. If

0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.320
<v Speaker 2>you love someone, show them love.

0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.680
<v Speaker 3>Every day of the year. Why is it one particular day.

0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:12.440
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like ranting about how much I hated and

0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:15.319
<v Speaker 2>all this shit that was being sold on the sidewalk,

0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 2>and he was like, I like, you, you know what,

0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:21.880
<v Speaker 2>let's assess our cars. Mine was in worse shape his was.

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 2>He looked at and he said it's fine. Let's just

0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:29.640
<v Speaker 2>let's go from one Valentine's Day hater to another. Let's

0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:32.000
<v Speaker 2>have a good Valentine's Day. And I said, you know what,

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.120
<v Speaker 2>thank you, this might be the best Valentine's Day ever.

0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 2>And I left, Yeah, that was that.

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:40.959
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean technically Tory two point zero, as my

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 2>friend Brian Green has labeled me, which I'm happy to

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 2>have that label because I'm.

0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:51.040
<v Speaker 3>Stepping this shit up.

0:09:52.520 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 2>This is technically my first Valentine's Day, completely single, and yeah,

0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 2>I still feel the pressure to have to buy my

0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:09.320
<v Speaker 2>kids stuff, you know, And I am grateful though, I

0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 2>got to say, I'm very grateful that my kids are

0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:15.000
<v Speaker 2>getting in this one sense, we hate when our babies

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 2>are growing up and things are kind of done with.

0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:20.839
<v Speaker 2>And I have five kids, and four of them were

0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:24.599
<v Speaker 2>too old to do the Valentine's gifts in class that

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.599
<v Speaker 2>you know that used to go from When I was

0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:30.600
<v Speaker 2>a kid, it was like you got these little cards

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.880
<v Speaker 2>that said too and from and you put the kid's

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.920
<v Speaker 2>name on it and you put your name on it and.

0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 3>You all exchanged.

0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 2>It was like that was it. You bought the pack

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:44.520
<v Speaker 2>from the store. It was reasonable. And then it just

0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 2>got so crazy. And when when I was younger, when

0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:52.079
<v Speaker 2>I had more energy with my first four, you know,

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm like DIY queens. So not only did I have

0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:58.920
<v Speaker 2>like cards for them to pass out in class, but

0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 2>I had to make every single one of them. Like

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:06.719
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh no, no, no, I'm known for crafting.

0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:10.160
<v Speaker 2>We are going to craft and come up with really

0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.600
<v Speaker 2>cool things. And we would we would come up like

0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:17.680
<v Speaker 2>I have great photos. We would be up all night

0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:22.080
<v Speaker 2>the night before handmaking, which AKA meant, you know, they

0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:24.680
<v Speaker 2>would help out with the first few and then they'd

0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:26.480
<v Speaker 2>be like, I'm tired, I don't want to do this anymore.

0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:27.920
<v Speaker 2>And I'd be like, okay, just put your name on

0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:29.440
<v Speaker 2>it so it looks like it's from you, and then

0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:31.000
<v Speaker 2>I would DIY all of them.

0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:32.679
<v Speaker 3>But that gets a lot, you guys.

0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:35.400
<v Speaker 2>You know there's twenty five to thirty five kids in

0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:37.840
<v Speaker 2>each class and four kids.

0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I was.

0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:41.680
<v Speaker 2>Pulling an all nighter and not for any fun reasons,

0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:44.840
<v Speaker 2>and it was a lot going on. So now it's

0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:48.200
<v Speaker 2>just Bo who is seven in first grade, and now

0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:53.839
<v Speaker 2>it's just his butt. He's kind of like he doesn't

0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:56.920
<v Speaker 2>want a DIY, and I give him this choice. I'm like, okay,

0:11:56.960 --> 0:12:00.600
<v Speaker 2>we can make something and come up with stuff, and

0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 2>he's like, Mom, can we just order it on Amazon?

0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:06.880
<v Speaker 2>And I have to bite my tongue and remember, okay,

0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:10.200
<v Speaker 2>you know what, it's okay to not do it all,

0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 2>it's okay to order it on Amazon.

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 3>God bless Amazon.

0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 2>So now instead of being like no, no, no, let's

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.800
<v Speaker 2>make and I'm like, okay, sure, great, So I'm head

0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 2>of the game. Valentine's is this Friday, and this is

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:29.240
<v Speaker 2>the first year that I'm set. I have all of

0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:33.400
<v Speaker 2>you really wanted these little tiny game like key chains

0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:38.680
<v Speaker 2>that was like a gaming system, not expensive and for

0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:40.440
<v Speaker 2>us to do a card and I was like, okay,

0:12:40.520 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 2>can I be a little creative here, like you know,

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:48.040
<v Speaker 2>game on and like you know, yeah, and he's allowing

0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:49.960
<v Speaker 2>me to do that, so I can put a few

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:51.959
<v Speaker 2>of my puns into them. But I have them ordered.

0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:56.040
<v Speaker 2>They arrived yesterday. God bless Amazon Prime. When it comes

0:12:56.120 --> 0:12:59.320
<v Speaker 2>between when they market, like would you it's free? Would

0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:02.520
<v Speaker 2>you like it between four and eight am? Or would

0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:05.200
<v Speaker 2>you like between eight and twelve, You're like, I really

0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 2>hit my doorstep, Like I really don't care, even though

0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:11.520
<v Speaker 2>there's something creepy to me about someone like sneaking up

0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 2>and dropping off stuff at your doorstep at four am.

0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.040
<v Speaker 2>But anyway, so it's all here, I'm doing it. I

0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 2>just have to get the Seese candy and then I'm

0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:23.680
<v Speaker 2>good to go. But I was never like into the whole,

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:29.320
<v Speaker 2>like let's go to dinner. I am just conditioned to

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:33.600
<v Speaker 2>think this. I feel like every partner I've had has

0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:37.880
<v Speaker 2>always been like Valentine's Day is cool, but you know,

0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:40.679
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of it's the preset menu, the jack of

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:44.760
<v Speaker 2>the prices. At restaurants, you know, you have to get reservations,

0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:47.240
<v Speaker 2>wait in advance, you have to sit and look at

0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.600
<v Speaker 2>people that look like they don't want to be there,

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:51.679
<v Speaker 2>but they're like, it's Valentine's Day. I have to pretend

0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:53.560
<v Speaker 2>to like the person that I'm with. I'm not talking

0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:55.800
<v Speaker 2>about myself, guys, I'm talking about my view of other

0:13:55.840 --> 0:14:00.199
<v Speaker 2>people in the restaurant. So Dean and I specifically kind

0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:05.120
<v Speaker 2>of really never did that. We would always yeah, and

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:07.240
<v Speaker 2>once we started having kids, which oh yeah, when we

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:09.800
<v Speaker 2>first got together, we started having kids right away, so

0:14:09.840 --> 0:14:13.720
<v Speaker 2>we always had kids together. We kind of made it

0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:17.679
<v Speaker 2>about them, and we would like, hang in, Oh those pizzas,

0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:20.840
<v Speaker 2>what about the pizzas they make for Valentine's Day? The

0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:24.320
<v Speaker 2>heart shape pizza that never really exactly looks like a

0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:26.760
<v Speaker 2>proper heart, which kind of sends me over the edge.

0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:29.840
<v Speaker 2>And then back then when the kids were younger, I

0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.400
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh god, and I don't like the shape

0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:32.960
<v Speaker 2>of a heart.

0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 3>I do like pizza though. I love a good pizza. Yeah,

0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 3>So we'd get.

0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:39.920
<v Speaker 2>That for the kids and we'd have like a night

0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:45.280
<v Speaker 2>in we get like matching like Valentine's pajamas.

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:46.240
<v Speaker 3>But yeah.

0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:52.200
<v Speaker 2>And then the person I was with last year was like,

0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:54.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't like Valentine's Day and I'm like, yeah, I

0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 2>mean either, and we agreed that we hate Valentine's Day,

0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:05.000
<v Speaker 2>which is perfect. So we actually I think it was

0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:06.840
<v Speaker 2>a Wednesday. I love when I say I think, But

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.440
<v Speaker 2>you guys know, like I have a memory, like especially

0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 2>dates and times, like I remember Valentine's Day fell on

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.720
<v Speaker 2>a Wednesday last year, so I remember he texted me

0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:19.360
<v Speaker 2>in the morning and bright and early, so it was

0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:23.440
<v Speaker 2>very nice and he was like, happy Wednesday, just another day,

0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:28.040
<v Speaker 2>and I laughed and I was like, yeah, it's Wednesday,

0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Happy home day, you know. And then we did celebrate,

0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:36.200
<v Speaker 2>but we did. We celebrated on the day after Valentine's Day,

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.800
<v Speaker 2>and we called it Our on Valentine's Day, which I

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:44.040
<v Speaker 2>liked because there was like no pressure. And then I think,

0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:48.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to think of my worst Valentine's Day. I

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:52.680
<v Speaker 2>guess it was back when I like, okay, I remember

0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 2>my worst one, and it wasn't even.

0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:57.600
<v Speaker 3>That bad, you guys, but it was the gift that

0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.280
<v Speaker 3>threw me over the edge. I'm going back. I want

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:00.520
<v Speaker 3>to say.

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:04.200
<v Speaker 2>I was like twenty six. I lived with my roommate Kevin.

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:06.920
<v Speaker 2>I was still on nine O two and oh it

0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:10.280
<v Speaker 2>was the final season I think her final two seasons

0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:12.640
<v Speaker 2>of nine two and oh to Maya's twenty five.

0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:13.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:17.640
<v Speaker 2>I was dating Vincent Young, who played Noah who went

0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:21.480
<v Speaker 2>out with Donna on Nino two and oh, and we

0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:22.400
<v Speaker 2>were seeing each other.

0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:26.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh what did the kids say? We were talking to

0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 3>each other.

0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:32.720
<v Speaker 2>We were dating for a while, but it wasn't until

0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 2>towards the end that it was like a committed relationship. AKA,

0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:38.440
<v Speaker 2>this is how it goes when you're young and girls

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:40.560
<v Speaker 2>and boys. He decided he wanted to commit to me.

0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.600
<v Speaker 2>I would have been like in sooner if it had happened.

0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:48.760
<v Speaker 2>So whatever this Valentine's Day was, we weren't committed to

0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:51.960
<v Speaker 2>each other, but I was all into him, like he

0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:56.000
<v Speaker 2>was my boyfriend, and he was like, we're seeing each

0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:56.600
<v Speaker 2>other kind of thing.

0:16:57.360 --> 0:16:59.080
<v Speaker 3>Or I don't know.

0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:02.720
<v Speaker 2>She sleeps over at my house Monday through Thursday and

0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Friday and Saturday go with my friends something like that.

0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:06.440

<v Speaker 2>Anyway, I remember it was Valentine's Day. We hadn't communicated.

0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:51.320
<v Speaker 2>It was a Saturday, and Fridays and Saturdays he always

0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:54.639
<v Speaker 2>went out with his friends, and then Sunday we would.

0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Sunday through Thursday we would be kind of in this

0:17:57.080 --> 0:18:00.400
<v Speaker 2>committed relationship. Oh my god, I was so rare. He's

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.320
<v Speaker 2>a great guy. But what was I thinking back then? Uh,

0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:08.320
<v Speaker 2>oh my gosh. Anyway, and it was Saturday, so he

0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:10.199
<v Speaker 2>had gone out with his friends Friday night and I

0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:12.840
<v Speaker 2>hadn't heard from him, and I was super stressing because

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.399
<v Speaker 2>we hadn't set plans. It was Valentine's Day, Saturday always

0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:17.359
<v Speaker 2>went out with his friends. But it's not like I

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:20.280
<v Speaker 2>was his quote unquote girlfriend, so I couldn't demand anything,

0:18:20.320 --> 0:18:22.320
<v Speaker 2>which you know me, I don't demand anything at all.

0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:26.640
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to say anything, and I just remember I.

0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:29.160
<v Speaker 3>Was super depressed all day because I was.

0:18:29.119 --> 0:18:32.240
<v Speaker 2>Wondering, like, this friend's going to acknowledge that, you know,

0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:35.119
<v Speaker 2>it's Valentine's Day and that we like each other and

0:18:35.160 --> 0:18:37.359
<v Speaker 2>we kind of were together. Am I going to get

0:18:37.400 --> 0:18:39.600
<v Speaker 2>a gift from him? I don't know what to do?

0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:43.560
<v Speaker 2>And Kevin was just like, oh my gosh, I think

0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:47.399
<v Speaker 2>I was just bummed all day long. And then late

0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:50.400
<v Speaker 2>in the afternoon I hadn't heard from him. A delivery

0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:54.560
<v Speaker 2>arrived and it was for me, and Kevin's like, see,

0:18:54.680 --> 0:18:57.480
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, I can't believe you worried all day

0:18:58.000 --> 0:19:00.480
<v Speaker 2>and maybe you guys aren't having plans, but he sent

0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:03.680
<v Speaker 2>you something, and I was like, oh god, I hope

0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:06.360
<v Speaker 2>it's not red roses. I really don't like red roses

0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:10.919
<v Speaker 2>or anything heart shaped. But I wanted it to be

0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:15.440
<v Speaker 2>something like super like foofy, girly, romantic, sappy. Even I

0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:18.040
<v Speaker 2>would have taken sappy because I just wanted some inkling

0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:21.399
<v Speaker 2>at that point that like he was way into me,

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:24.640
<v Speaker 2>like I wanted that. And we lived in a building

0:19:24.800 --> 0:19:26.880
<v Speaker 2>where there's dorman and.

0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:28.920
<v Speaker 3>So they were like, oh, we have a delivery. We're

0:19:28.960 --> 0:19:29.920
<v Speaker 3>just gonna bring it up.

0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.320
<v Speaker 2>So Kevin went out and we had elevators that went

0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.640
<v Speaker 2>right into our apartment and went out to We called

0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:40.280
<v Speaker 2>it the vestibule and so fancy, and Kevin said, okay.

0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:42.600
<v Speaker 3>The dorman brought it up.

0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:46.520
<v Speaker 2>The elevator left in the vestibule, and Kevin said, okay,

0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:47.919
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go get it. And I was laying in

0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:50.199
<v Speaker 2>bed because I was super bummed and we'd been like

0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:53.240
<v Speaker 2>binging like rom coms all day.

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:57.360
<v Speaker 3>That made me more bummed. And he came back and he.

0:19:57.440 --> 0:19:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Was like, I was like, what is it? Just give

0:19:59.920 --> 0:20:02.840
<v Speaker 2>me what is it before you walk through my bedroom doors.

0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:06.960
<v Speaker 2>And he's like, you're not gonna be happy. And I

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:08.040
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh God.

0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:10.159
<v Speaker 3>Lay it on me. I mean not on me, like

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:11.679
<v Speaker 3>lay it next to me. Put it next to me.

0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:16.400
<v Speaker 2>And when he walked through the door, it wasn't red roses,

0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:21.719
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't flowers. It was a plant, you guys. It

0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:27.320
<v Speaker 2>was a friggin plant. And I'm like, and I'm not

0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:30.960
<v Speaker 2>talking like you know now there's like really cool plants

0:20:31.000 --> 0:20:33.320
<v Speaker 2>and like succulents, like if a boy sent me a

0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:37.840
<v Speaker 2>succulent Now I would be like chic, But it wasn't that.

0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:39.879
<v Speaker 2>It was like back then, And it wasn't even like

0:20:39.920 --> 0:20:40.879
<v Speaker 2>a fiddlely fig.

0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:42.720
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't. It was like a fern or something. I

0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:43.040
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:46.800
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't a fern. I'm being dramatic. It wasn't a

0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 2>sexy plant, let me put it that way. And it

0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:52.440
<v Speaker 2>was from him. I don't remember what the card said,

0:20:52.520 --> 0:20:56.280
<v Speaker 2>but it didn't matter at that point. So my thing is,

0:20:57.520 --> 0:21:00.840
<v Speaker 2>what does that mean? A guy said sends you something,

0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:03.680
<v Speaker 2>so he's acknowledging you guys are something. You have some

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:07.520
<v Speaker 2>sort of like between you guys that's romantic. But he

0:21:07.640 --> 0:21:10.720
<v Speaker 2>doesn't send you flowers. He sends you a plant. Is

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:11.760
<v Speaker 2>he saying.

0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:13.920
<v Speaker 3>We're just friends?

0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Is he saying we're friends with benefits but not even

0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 2>like the benefit of like something that's flowering, which is

0:21:20.520 --> 0:21:21.680
<v Speaker 2>the whole point of benefits.

0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:24.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. Do you guys have an opinion?

0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:24.760
<v Speaker 5>Well?

0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I am curious what did the cards say, because that's

0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:30.359
<v Speaker 1>very telling.

0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:33.199
<v Speaker 6>If he was just like happy Valentine's.

0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Day, or he was like, may our relationship grow like

0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:38.159
<v Speaker 1>this plant, I mean.

0:21:39.160 --> 0:21:41.280
<v Speaker 3>It would be I just throw my mouth.

0:21:42.200 --> 0:21:45.359
<v Speaker 6>That would be very telling. What the intention was.

0:21:46.000 --> 0:21:46.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:49.639
<v Speaker 2>It was like a weed or something, which is like

0:21:49.680 --> 0:21:51.960
<v Speaker 2>our relationship which was dead a year later.

0:21:52.520 --> 0:21:54.440
<v Speaker 6>Okay, back it up, back it up, back it up.

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:56.160
<v Speaker 6>You get a plant.

0:21:56.560 --> 0:21:58.960
<v Speaker 1>You have no recollection of what the card says.

0:21:58.680 --> 0:21:59.000
<v Speaker 4>I do.

0:21:59.200 --> 0:22:03.760
<v Speaker 2>I kind of it said something very generic. It was

0:22:03.800 --> 0:22:07.280
<v Speaker 2>handwritten by him, and I think it was like happy

0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day, love.

0:22:09.480 --> 0:22:14.240
<v Speaker 1>V Okay, Yeah, but he didn't ask you out to

0:22:14.359 --> 0:22:15.920
<v Speaker 1>do anything that weekend.

0:22:16.000 --> 0:22:17.280
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it was Saturday night.

0:22:17.320 --> 0:22:19.920
<v Speaker 2>He went out with his friends Friday and Saturday night

0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:22.280
<v Speaker 2>Sunday night. I would always go over to his house

0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:25.800
<v Speaker 2>or afternoon watch football with him.

0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:28.200
<v Speaker 3>Which really I hate it, but I would just like cook.

0:22:28.280 --> 0:22:28.840
<v Speaker 3>That was fun.

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:31.800
<v Speaker 2>I would either make dinner for Sunday night, or we

0:22:31.840 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 2>would order in, or we'd go see a movie at

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:37.119
<v Speaker 2>the Lumli does not even exist. But he was like

0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:39.680
<v Speaker 2>cool in arts scene and we were into art films.

0:22:40.080 --> 0:22:40.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't know.

0:22:41.320 --> 0:22:44.400
<v Speaker 6>Okay, so wait, did you go to his house that Sunday?

0:22:44.840 --> 0:22:45.320
<v Speaker 3>Uh huh?

0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:49.760
<v Speaker 1>And was Valentine's Day referenced or were you like, oh

0:22:49.800 --> 0:22:51.840
<v Speaker 1>my god, thank you for the beautiful plant.

0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:54.440
<v Speaker 6>Like what happened.

0:22:55.920 --> 0:22:59.680
<v Speaker 2>In true tory form. I have the best memory out there.

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:00.440
<v Speaker 1>Yep.

0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:04.760
<v Speaker 2>I conveniently have forgotten that part because it was probably

0:23:07.080 --> 0:23:09.040
<v Speaker 2>I probably didn't acknowledge it. I probably said thank you

0:23:09.080 --> 0:23:12.320
<v Speaker 2>so much for the plant. I love it. It was beautiful.

0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:14.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:23:14.240 --> 0:23:16.800
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it was one of those plants where it does

0:23:16.920 --> 0:23:17.960
<v Speaker 2>flower at some point.

0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:20.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't think so. I really don't think so.

0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:24.359
<v Speaker 6>Well, you remember feeling crappy, so it probably.

0:23:24.359 --> 0:23:28.919
<v Speaker 2>I remember feeling really shitty and to that point. I

0:23:28.960 --> 0:23:31.520
<v Speaker 2>would never don't ever get a girl that you like

0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:36.200
<v Speaker 2>a plant, because it just it sends really mixed messages

0:23:37.119 --> 0:23:41.760
<v Speaker 2>that you're not that like, you're not indoor enough to

0:23:41.840 --> 0:23:45.879
<v Speaker 2>send flowers, so you're gonna send her something because you

0:23:45.920 --> 0:23:49.840
<v Speaker 2>want to. Still, I don't know, yeah, it really look

0:23:49.840 --> 0:23:51.639
<v Speaker 2>at it. It stayed with me all these years. I

0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:53.760
<v Speaker 2>don't think he and I ever talked about it, and

0:23:53.800 --> 0:23:55.400
<v Speaker 2>we stayed friends, like I don't even think.

0:23:55.440 --> 0:23:59.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. Maybe we could call him, maybe we should.

0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:02.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to text him and be like, he won't remember.

0:24:02.680 --> 0:24:04.640
<v Speaker 2>I'll be like, if you remember Valentine's say, you send

0:24:04.640 --> 0:24:05.840
<v Speaker 2>me a plant? What did that mean?

0:24:06.160 --> 0:24:08.439
<v Speaker 6>Yep? I would I'd love you to do that, that

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:10.120
<v Speaker 6>would be awesome, I will.

0:24:10.720 --> 0:24:14.399
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So a year later, by then I think we

0:24:14.400 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 2>were definitely like more committed. Let's say, because if I

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:23.800
<v Speaker 2>can reference pictures in my brain, we would go to

0:24:24.320 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 2>events where there would be like a press.

0:24:26.840 --> 0:24:28.800
<v Speaker 3>Line and stuff and he would hold my hands, so

0:24:28.880 --> 0:24:29.800
<v Speaker 3>pictures were taken.

0:24:29.880 --> 0:24:33.919
<v Speaker 2>So it was like, Okay, we're confirming we're together. I

0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:36.760
<v Speaker 2>feel like we went to a movie premiere.

0:24:38.600 --> 0:24:40.439
<v Speaker 1>By the way, Can I just interject and say, I

0:24:40.480 --> 0:24:44.280
<v Speaker 1>think that is so funny that that is how celebrities

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:45.359
<v Speaker 1>confirm their dating.

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.160
<v Speaker 6>You know, like you're wondering, Oh, I wonder if he's

0:24:48.240 --> 0:24:48.919
<v Speaker 6>serious or not.

0:24:49.040 --> 0:24:51.560
<v Speaker 1>But then if he's willing to be photographed on the

0:24:51.600 --> 0:24:54.760
<v Speaker 1>press line with you, you're like, okay, this is your score.

0:24:55.280 --> 0:25:01.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm his oh man. And people I wonder like, how

0:25:01.560 --> 0:25:05.240
<v Speaker 3>could she have no self worth? She's a celebrity, Like, hello,

0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:09.399
<v Speaker 3>yeah he was. He was very nice.

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Well we'll see how nice as you finished the story,

0:25:13.760 --> 0:25:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll be the judge of nice.

0:25:15.040 --> 0:25:15.439
<v Speaker 6>Go ahead.

0:25:19.560 --> 0:25:27.040
<v Speaker 2>So I believe the following Valentine's Day, we again had

0:25:27.040 --> 0:25:29.600
<v Speaker 2>been photographed out like I wasn't.

0:25:29.320 --> 0:25:30.400
<v Speaker 3>A secret anymore.

0:25:30.840 --> 0:25:31.520
<v Speaker 6>Oh my god.

0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 3>But I think even.

0:25:33.040 --> 0:25:34.600
<v Speaker 2>To this day, he'll say, you know, it was a

0:25:34.760 --> 0:25:38.120
<v Speaker 2>it was a dicey situation that I was always mindful

0:25:38.160 --> 0:25:39.240
<v Speaker 2>of because.

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:42.080
<v Speaker 3>It was a big opportunity.

0:25:42.119 --> 0:25:45.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm on nine O two one zero and later like

0:25:45.920 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm dating the boss's daughter. But there's no reference to it.

0:25:49.560 --> 0:25:52.399
<v Speaker 2>And he's like, I was worried, like I was. You know,

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:57.120
<v Speaker 2>he was worried for job security, and so we kind

0:25:57.160 --> 0:26:00.600
<v Speaker 2>of but communicate security.

0:26:00.680 --> 0:26:03.560
<v Speaker 1>He should have sent you like a garden of flowers.

0:26:04.280 --> 0:26:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I think he was worried that if my dad found

0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>out that he was dating me, that he wouldn't want

0:26:11.040 --> 0:26:13.360
<v Speaker 2>him on the show. But my dad was the opposite.

0:26:13.440 --> 0:26:17.639
<v Speaker 2>He loved me dating leading men. He loved me dating actors.

0:26:17.640 --> 0:26:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Like he didn't know anything besides actors, so like that

0:26:19.920 --> 0:26:21.720
<v Speaker 2>was his world. He wanted to like keep it contained,

0:26:21.880 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 2>like Okay, I know my dad was so old fashioned

0:26:25.640 --> 0:26:28.160
<v Speaker 2>yet so like I don't know, not with it at

0:26:28.160 --> 0:26:31.520
<v Speaker 2>the times, like it's the worst to be like dating

0:26:31.520 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 2>an actor, like, oh, I don't wish that any girl

0:26:34.520 --> 0:26:37.600
<v Speaker 2>like and but he thought like, oh, she's safe if

0:26:37.600 --> 0:26:38.680
<v Speaker 2>she's dating an actor.

0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, I didn't know.

0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:42.639
<v Speaker 1>And especially one on his cast where he could be

0:26:42.840 --> 0:26:45.040
<v Speaker 1>like you know, have you guys on his radar?

0:26:45.800 --> 0:26:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Right, But I think, like to Vince's defense, like we

0:26:50.680 --> 0:26:55.359
<v Speaker 2>didn't have the best communication in our relationship and we

0:26:55.440 --> 0:26:59.000
<v Speaker 2>never talked about that, and he didn't know how my

0:26:59.119 --> 0:27:02.480
<v Speaker 2>dad felt, you know, like we'd done things with my

0:27:02.720 --> 0:27:05.679
<v Speaker 2>family and stuff. But I don't know. I think he

0:27:05.800 --> 0:27:08.680
<v Speaker 2>was just worried whatever. I'm defending him for no reason,

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:12.040
<v Speaker 2>like he didn't do anything wrong. But anyway, a year later,

0:27:12.160 --> 0:27:15.320
<v Speaker 2>we were committed. We were well, we didn't talk about

0:27:15.359 --> 0:27:17.359
<v Speaker 2>being committed, but he held my hand in public. So whooo,

0:27:19.240 --> 0:27:24.320
<v Speaker 2>so it's confirmed the bitches, he's off the market. No, yeah,

0:27:24.520 --> 0:27:29.320
<v Speaker 2>And anyway, it was fashion Week and I have to

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:30.040
<v Speaker 2>check this.

0:27:30.160 --> 0:27:31.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this line's up.

0:27:31.359 --> 0:27:34.800
<v Speaker 2>It's New York Fashion Week right right now, kind of

0:27:34.880 --> 0:27:38.760
<v Speaker 2>leading into Valentine's Day. And I was in New York

0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:42.280
<v Speaker 2>going to fashion Week with my mom, and my mom

0:27:42.960 --> 0:27:45.600
<v Speaker 2>had said, would you want to go to Fashion Week?

0:27:45.600 --> 0:27:47.720
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh my god, that would be so cool,

0:27:48.200 --> 0:27:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Like I'd done Fashion Week before, but with.

0:27:50.760 --> 0:27:52.640
<v Speaker 3>My mom that's kind of iconic, like.

0:27:52.760 --> 0:27:56.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, let's go, let's do it together. And Maron was

0:27:57.040 --> 0:27:59.199
<v Speaker 2>in New York at the time and some other friends

0:27:59.280 --> 0:28:01.919
<v Speaker 2>and he just had We had the best time. But

0:28:02.119 --> 0:28:05.800
<v Speaker 2>I remember that it was Saturday night and it was

0:28:05.920 --> 0:28:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's Day, I think I or it was, or maybe

0:28:09.440 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't quite Valentine's Day, but it was. The Playboy

0:28:13.040 --> 0:28:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Mansion was having like their Valentine's Day party, and we

0:28:17.840 --> 0:28:21.080
<v Speaker 2>had gone to ones before at the Playboy Mansion, like

0:28:21.119 --> 0:28:22.840
<v Speaker 2>it was the thing to do at the time, and

0:28:22.880 --> 0:28:25.560
<v Speaker 2>every actor and actress you always win. It was fun

0:28:26.160 --> 0:28:28.159
<v Speaker 2>and he was going though, but he wasn't going. I

0:28:28.200 --> 0:28:30.040
<v Speaker 2>wasn't going to be with him with all our friends,

0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:33.280
<v Speaker 2>like I was in New York and I was super worried.

0:28:33.920 --> 0:28:36.520
<v Speaker 2>And yet I've always been the girl that pretended not

0:28:36.600 --> 0:28:39.440
<v Speaker 2>to be jealous but would just like cringe inside but

0:28:39.480 --> 0:28:41.560
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't communicate it because I didn't want to be like

0:28:41.640 --> 0:28:43.800
<v Speaker 2>that girl that was like nagging.

0:28:44.440 --> 0:28:47.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm still like that, so I.

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:50.840
<v Speaker 6>Think a lot of women are like exactly, yeah.

0:28:51.400 --> 0:28:52.280
<v Speaker 3>So yeah.

0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:57.959
<v Speaker 2>So I just remember saying like, Okay, have fun, but

0:28:58.520 --> 0:29:02.120
<v Speaker 2>we do me a favor. I don't care how late

0:29:02.160 --> 0:29:04.719
<v Speaker 2>it is, will you just call me when you get home, like,

0:29:05.240 --> 0:29:07.200
<v Speaker 2>and he was like yeah, So that was like our thing,

0:29:07.400 --> 0:29:10.680
<v Speaker 2>And I was proud of myself that I didn't stand

0:29:10.760 --> 0:29:13.640
<v Speaker 2>up for myself and say, you know, I felt nervous

0:29:13.640 --> 0:29:16.000
<v Speaker 2>about him being there with women all over him, because

0:29:16.040 --> 0:29:18.000
<v Speaker 2>even when I was there with him, you know, women

0:29:18.360 --> 0:29:20.680
<v Speaker 2>would be all over him. So I'm like, oh god.

0:29:21.880 --> 0:29:27.280
<v Speaker 2>And anyway, long story short, he didn't call. He never called,

0:29:27.400 --> 0:29:31.800
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, I don't know. I was like, okay,

0:29:32.600 --> 0:29:36.520
<v Speaker 2>that's it, and yeah, that was it.

0:29:37.880 --> 0:29:38.760
<v Speaker 6>You broke up with him?

0:29:39.440 --> 0:29:41.360
<v Speaker 3>Well, I didn't tell him because we didn't communicate, So I.

0:29:41.320 --> 0:29:45.840
<v Speaker 6>Just so you just ignored him on set or.

0:29:47.240 --> 0:29:51.960
<v Speaker 3>No. Two had ended by then, okay, by the year later, so.

0:29:53.960 --> 0:29:55.120
<v Speaker 6>You just never called him back.

0:29:56.920 --> 0:29:57.959
<v Speaker 3>We talked after that.

0:29:58.480 --> 0:30:02.040
<v Speaker 2>We saw each other a couple times where he wanted

0:30:02.120 --> 0:30:05.680
<v Speaker 2>to try to work things out. And you know what,

0:30:06.200 --> 0:30:09.800
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing about me is I will stay and

0:30:09.880 --> 0:30:12.280
<v Speaker 2>I will stay until and all my friends are like,

0:30:12.760 --> 0:30:16.200
<v Speaker 2>with the wrong guy, what are you doing? Don't stay,

0:30:16.400 --> 0:30:19.080
<v Speaker 2>don't stay. But when I am done, when I am truly,

0:30:19.160 --> 0:30:21.160
<v Speaker 2>truly done, and it has to be on my time,

0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:24.040
<v Speaker 2>and it's usually to the point where it's like everyone's like,

0:30:24.080 --> 0:30:25.560
<v Speaker 2>why wasn't she done three years ago?

0:30:26.360 --> 0:30:27.600
<v Speaker 3>For five or six or ten.

0:30:28.400 --> 0:30:30.480
<v Speaker 2>I when I'm done, I'm done, and I don't go

0:30:30.560 --> 0:30:33.840
<v Speaker 2>back so at that point, I really we'd kind of

0:30:33.840 --> 0:30:35.800
<v Speaker 2>been going through this back and forth and I was

0:30:35.920 --> 0:30:39.920
<v Speaker 2>just like, I don't want to feel worried and jealous

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:44.240
<v Speaker 2>and I want more of a commitment and I don't know. Yeah,

0:30:44.240 --> 0:30:47.480
<v Speaker 2>I was done and that was it for you, thank you,

0:30:48.120 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 2>and then I went home from New York.

0:30:50.440 --> 0:30:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I was that's it.

0:30:51.480 --> 0:30:53.320
<v Speaker 2>I was supposed to stay like the rest of the

0:30:53.320 --> 0:30:56.200
<v Speaker 2>week in New York doing Fashion Week, like more of

0:30:56.280 --> 0:31:00.560
<v Speaker 2>Fashion Week, but I got the call that Scary Movie Too.

0:31:01.080 --> 0:31:05.560
<v Speaker 2>And I'd been auditioning like over and over, been like

0:31:05.600 --> 0:31:07.560
<v Speaker 2>two months. We hadn't heard anything. So I was like, oh,

0:31:07.600 --> 0:31:10.560
<v Speaker 2>I didn't get the role. And I got a call

0:31:10.560 --> 0:31:13.680
<v Speaker 2>from my agent saying, we just got a call Scary

0:31:13.760 --> 0:31:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Movie Too. You got the part of Alex and they

0:31:17.320 --> 0:31:20.400
<v Speaker 2>want you to start rehearsal and then start filming and

0:31:20.440 --> 0:31:21.680
<v Speaker 2>you have to be home tomorrow. And I was like,

0:31:21.720 --> 0:31:25.960
<v Speaker 2>oh my god. And my mom was super cool. She

0:31:26.000 --> 0:31:28.080
<v Speaker 2>had already paid for this whole trip and like we

0:31:28.120 --> 0:31:30.280
<v Speaker 2>had all these things lined up to go see and

0:31:30.360 --> 0:31:32.480
<v Speaker 2>I was like, Mom, I got the job. I have

0:31:32.520 --> 0:31:34.640
<v Speaker 2>to go home. Terrified of flying so I couldn't just

0:31:34.680 --> 0:31:36.840
<v Speaker 2>fly home and she would stay and she offered to

0:31:36.880 --> 0:31:40.840
<v Speaker 2>go with me back home, and yeah, and then I

0:31:40.840 --> 0:31:43.680
<v Speaker 2>started scaring movie too, which was great. So I was

0:31:43.760 --> 0:31:46.280
<v Speaker 2>so lost in that that I didn't have time to

0:31:46.280 --> 0:31:48.960
<v Speaker 2>worry about like, h should I get back together with Vince?

0:31:49.000 --> 0:31:51.120
<v Speaker 3>What should I do? Which I do? I was just like.

0:31:51.240 --> 0:31:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Oof, kind of the best revenge in a way big

0:31:55.040 --> 0:31:55.840
<v Speaker 2>feature film.

0:31:56.280 --> 0:31:59.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I don't need you. I'm starting a movie.

0:31:59.800 --> 0:32:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thinking about it, I'm still mad about it. I'm

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:07.040
<v Speaker 2>still mad about the plant, that's all. I'm not even

0:32:07.080 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 2>mad that he went to the Playboy Mansion party. I'm

0:32:10.560 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 2>pissed about the fucking plants.

0:32:12.480 --> 0:32:15.320
<v Speaker 3>Like, so I was question about the plant, Yeah.

0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:18.480
<v Speaker 6>Did you keep it? Did you thrown into garbage?

0:32:19.200 --> 0:32:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Might still have and you don't even realize that is

0:32:22.120 --> 0:32:24.040
<v Speaker 1>the plant he gave you a million years ago and

0:32:24.120 --> 0:32:25.400
<v Speaker 1>it's still alive somewhere.

0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:30.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, here's the thing. I call myself Tori of all trades.

0:32:30.960 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 2>I can really do anything that is uh making.

0:32:35.040 --> 0:32:38.720
<v Speaker 3>Stuff, except I.

0:32:37.920 --> 0:32:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Do not have a green thumb. I'm a plant killer.

0:32:41.720 --> 0:32:44.880
<v Speaker 2>I cannot keep a plant alive to save my life.

0:32:44.920 --> 0:32:48.840
<v Speaker 2>Like it's it's I'm notorious like for killing plants, and

0:32:48.920 --> 0:32:52.920
<v Speaker 2>I've been given plants that people say impossible to I

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:57.320
<v Speaker 2>killed a fucking cactus once. They were like, impossible to kill.

0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:00.760
<v Speaker 2>That cactus was dead a week later, like it's it's

0:33:00.760 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 2>where plants go to die my house, Like it's OK.

0:33:04.200 --> 0:33:08.400
<v Speaker 2>No one give me a plant ever, it will not survive.

0:33:09.040 --> 0:33:12.120
<v Speaker 6>Hey, keep five kids alive, that's all.

0:33:12.320 --> 0:33:14.200
<v Speaker 3>That's good enough. That's right.

0:33:14.320 --> 0:33:16.800
<v Speaker 2>I can keep children alive. I can keep animals alive.

0:33:16.920 --> 0:33:20.920
<v Speaker 2>I cannot keep a plant alive. But I think I

0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:23.240
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't have thrown away because to me, I would have

0:33:23.280 --> 0:33:28.479
<v Speaker 2>put emotional like feelings on the plant and attachment and

0:33:28.520 --> 0:33:29.920
<v Speaker 2>be like, oh no, it's a living thing.

0:33:30.000 --> 0:33:31.000
<v Speaker 3>I can't throw it away.

0:33:32.200 --> 0:33:35.440
<v Speaker 6>It feelings will be hurt if I throw it away.

0:33:36.600 --> 0:33:38.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, exactly.

0:33:38.360 --> 0:33:41.080
<v Speaker 2>I did have one plant that did stay alive for

0:33:41.160 --> 0:33:46.200
<v Speaker 2>many years, and that was the only one. And I

0:33:46.280 --> 0:33:50.400
<v Speaker 2>moved that plant in little pieces, like it would have

0:33:50.520 --> 0:33:53.360
<v Speaker 2>one like piece left and I would like find but

0:33:53.440 --> 0:33:55.680
<v Speaker 2>it had roots and like half of it was gone,

0:33:55.680 --> 0:33:59.040
<v Speaker 2>and I'd move it to each apartment. That plant's name

0:33:59.080 --> 0:34:04.840
<v Speaker 2>was Oscar. I don't think Oscar survived beyond like our

0:34:04.880 --> 0:34:08.279
<v Speaker 2>seventeenth move, but he was he was there for a

0:34:08.280 --> 0:34:10.640
<v Speaker 2>long time, right.

0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:11.840
<v Speaker 6>So what happened to this plant?

0:34:12.280 --> 0:34:14.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. I can't even remember the type of plants.

0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:16.120
<v Speaker 3>I don't remember.

0:34:16.600 --> 0:34:19.719
<v Speaker 1>You blocked it out, I've blocked it.

0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:22.960
<v Speaker 2>It's like down there, deep with like repressed childhood memories.

0:34:23.000 --> 0:34:23.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:34:23.800 --> 0:34:27.400
<v Speaker 6>Maybe that's why you killed plants because of that.

0:34:28.080 --> 0:34:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Whoa, Right, this goes deeper. Maybe this is linked to

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:36.200
<v Speaker 2>why I don't drink water.

0:34:38.239 --> 0:34:41.640
<v Speaker 6>That's a stretch. But okay, I'll go there with you,

0:34:44.080 --> 0:34:44.440
<v Speaker 6>aren't we.

0:34:47.760 --> 0:34:49.120
<v Speaker 3>God, you know I love a good pun.

0:34:49.280 --> 0:34:49.839
<v Speaker 7>I'm so.

0:34:51.880 --> 0:34:53.359
<v Speaker 3>Girl crushing on you right now, Lauren.

0:34:53.880 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yes, But to keep a plant alive, you have

0:34:57.239 --> 0:34:59.479
<v Speaker 2>to feed it for you have to give it water.

0:34:59.680 --> 0:34:59.879
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:02.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't get myself water. It's like a form of

0:35:02.680 --> 0:35:06.600
<v Speaker 2>self sabotage. So maybe, yeah, when you went there, you said,

0:35:06.600 --> 0:35:09.320
<v Speaker 2>maybe that's a form of why I don't keep plants

0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:11.080
<v Speaker 2>alive because I feel like I can't.

0:35:11.120 --> 0:35:11.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:35:11.520 --> 0:35:14.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we're going too far here, all right. Yeah, it's

0:35:14.360 --> 0:35:17.960
<v Speaker 2>not that deep. Yeough, It's just a plant, just another

0:35:18.000 --> 0:35:21.440
<v Speaker 2>fucking holiday, right. I think if I really had to

0:35:21.440 --> 0:35:24.520
<v Speaker 2>think about it, I probably wouldn't have thrown it away.

0:35:25.040 --> 0:35:28.000
<v Speaker 3>I felt like I had to keep it. I probably

0:35:28.040 --> 0:35:29.080
<v Speaker 3>put it in Kevin's room.

0:35:30.320 --> 0:35:32.040
<v Speaker 6>Uh, that makes sense.

0:35:32.080 --> 0:35:34.960
<v Speaker 2>Where at the time, Yeah, you know my roommate Kevin

0:35:36.000 --> 0:35:36.720
<v Speaker 2>huge dentists.

0:35:36.760 --> 0:35:39.400
<v Speaker 3>Now great guy sober got his shit together.

0:35:39.440 --> 0:35:45.000
<v Speaker 2>But during that time, inadvertently, that plant probably saw so

0:35:45.280 --> 0:35:49.080
<v Speaker 2>much porn and hookers and cocaine that it probably died.

0:35:50.840 --> 0:35:53.399
<v Speaker 2>But it wasn't in my hands. Wasn't it my hands?

0:35:53.560 --> 0:35:56.160
<v Speaker 2>Or the plant had a really good time bird's eye view, We.

0:35:56.200 --> 0:36:02.120

<v Speaker 1>Valentine's Day stories.

0:36:39.080 --> 0:36:40.799
<v Speaker 6>How about sharing a.

0:36:41.040 --> 0:36:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Positive Valentine's Valentine's Day story? What is a happy memory

0:36:45.680 --> 0:36:46.759
<v Speaker 1>of Valentine's Day?

0:36:47.080 --> 0:36:52.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, I got this one. This is a good one.

0:36:53.200 --> 0:36:58.759
<v Speaker 2>So on Valentine's Day twenty and eleven, I found out

0:36:58.840 --> 0:37:02.560
<v Speaker 2>I was pregnant. I was pregnant with my third baby,

0:37:02.719 --> 0:37:06.480
<v Speaker 2>which is Hattie and Dean and I were filming our

0:37:06.520 --> 0:37:10.480
<v Speaker 2>reality show, Tory and Dean Home Sweet Hollywood. Liam and

0:37:10.520 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Stella were like three and four. We never planned any

0:37:13.680 --> 0:37:16.480
<v Speaker 2>of our babies. We always felt like they came to

0:37:16.560 --> 0:37:19.600
<v Speaker 2>us when when they wanted to, which is why ended

0:37:19.719 --> 0:37:20.400
<v Speaker 2>up with five.

0:37:21.200 --> 0:37:23.920
<v Speaker 3>But it was all meant to be anyway.

0:37:24.480 --> 0:37:30.040
<v Speaker 2>We were opening our store inventory, which was like gifts

0:37:30.080 --> 0:37:35.919
<v Speaker 2>and antiques and really great store that would probably still

0:37:35.960 --> 0:37:37.920
<v Speaker 2>be there now, but I feel like at the time

0:37:38.800 --> 0:37:41.160
<v Speaker 2>wasn't doing so well. Brick and Morris stores were kind

0:37:41.200 --> 0:37:44.960
<v Speaker 2>of on the outside anyway. I was also in the

0:37:45.000 --> 0:37:50.160
<v Speaker 2>midst of doing photos and content for my party planning

0:37:50.280 --> 0:37:57.920
<v Speaker 2>slash cookbook, which was called Celebratory, and I just the

0:37:57.960 --> 0:38:02.480
<v Speaker 2>list keeps going and yeah, So I was doing all

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:07.080
<v Speaker 2>these things super super busy and never stopped. But like

0:38:07.280 --> 0:38:11.200
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden, I was really really nauseous and

0:38:11.239 --> 0:38:13.720
<v Speaker 2>really sick. We were in I remember being in Joshua

0:38:13.840 --> 0:38:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Tree and we were doing one of the photo shoots

0:38:17.400 --> 0:38:21.719
<v Speaker 2>for Celebratory and all my friends came out there. The

0:38:21.760 --> 0:38:24.719
<v Speaker 2>show came out to film the behind the scenes of it,

0:38:26.880 --> 0:38:29.560
<v Speaker 2>and I was just we were antiquing because we were

0:38:29.640 --> 0:38:32.800
<v Speaker 2>pulling stuff. They have such great antiquing and Joshua Tree.

0:38:32.880 --> 0:38:34.680
<v Speaker 2>I think I had to rent like a U haul

0:38:34.719 --> 0:38:36.600
<v Speaker 2>to get us back home because I found all this

0:38:36.680 --> 0:38:39.799
<v Speaker 2>stuff that then I was going to put into inventory,

0:38:41.320 --> 0:38:43.719
<v Speaker 2>because I always would tell myself that, like, oh my gosh,

0:38:43.760 --> 0:38:44.640
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't be shopping.

0:38:44.680 --> 0:38:46.200
<v Speaker 3>I'd be like, and then I was like, but it's

0:38:46.239 --> 0:38:47.160
<v Speaker 3>for my store.

0:38:47.840 --> 0:38:50.680
<v Speaker 2>So it put like two pieces in the store and

0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:55.719
<v Speaker 2>like twenty pieces in my home anyway, the store, but

0:38:55.920 --> 0:38:58.359
<v Speaker 2>I was, so We're in Joshua Tree and I was

0:38:58.680 --> 0:39:01.960
<v Speaker 2>super nauseous, and I remember I had to drive myself

0:39:02.000 --> 0:39:06.200
<v Speaker 2>out to Joshua Tree and the team had gone ahead,

0:39:06.520 --> 0:39:09.680
<v Speaker 2>and like everybody was getting there separate. I was working

0:39:10.000 --> 0:39:12.480
<v Speaker 2>on something else, so I had to leave later to

0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:14.320
<v Speaker 2>get there, and it's like a three three and a

0:39:14.360 --> 0:39:19.120
<v Speaker 2>half hour drive, and I remember calling them because on

0:39:19.160 --> 0:39:21.400
<v Speaker 2>the way to the photoshoot and it was just me

0:39:21.480 --> 0:39:25.239
<v Speaker 2>and my chicken Coco. And yep, me and my chicken Coco.

0:39:25.880 --> 0:39:28.120
<v Speaker 2>I was the first person to have like a pocket chicken.

0:39:28.840 --> 0:39:30.880
<v Speaker 2>I think of like you know, Paris Hilton has her

0:39:30.920 --> 0:39:34.440
<v Speaker 2>cute little dog. I would bring my Cocoa everywhere. And

0:39:34.480 --> 0:39:37.400
<v Speaker 2>you remember her. She was white and fluffy and loved

0:39:37.400 --> 0:39:40.960
<v Speaker 2>to go everywhere. So Coco was with me in the car.

0:39:41.040 --> 0:39:42.120
<v Speaker 3>I remember you, I.

0:39:42.120 --> 0:39:44.160
<v Speaker 6>Just have to interduct. Didn't you used to dress her?

0:39:44.680 --> 0:39:45.080
<v Speaker 3>I did?

0:39:45.360 --> 0:39:47.239
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, she had a fab wardrobes.

0:39:47.320 --> 0:39:50.479
<v Speaker 2>I remember, Oh my gosh, because I used to dress

0:39:50.480 --> 0:39:52.080
<v Speaker 2>my pug me me LaRue.

0:39:52.040 --> 0:39:52.839
<v Speaker 3>Because she liked it.

0:39:52.840 --> 0:39:54.520
<v Speaker 2>People used to be like, that's so crazy way you

0:39:54.600 --> 0:39:57.200
<v Speaker 2>dress your dog. I was like, she likes it, Like

0:39:57.239 --> 0:39:59.600
<v Speaker 2>she screams and runs to her little boudoir.

0:40:00.200 --> 0:40:03.359
<v Speaker 3>We to pull her clothes out. She did. She loved it.

0:40:04.400 --> 0:40:11.359
<v Speaker 2>But I remember putting Coco on Instagram and people saying, wait, no,

0:40:11.640 --> 0:40:12.160
<v Speaker 2>this is it.

0:40:12.160 --> 0:40:12.920
<v Speaker 3>It was on Twitter.

0:40:13.320 --> 0:40:16.280
<v Speaker 2>On Twitter, uh, someone reached out to me and said,

0:40:17.200 --> 0:40:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Coco is so adorable. I make chicken sweaters. And I

0:40:20.600 --> 0:40:23.440
<v Speaker 2>was just like, okay, hey, I don't believe her in anything.

0:40:23.719 --> 0:40:26.240
<v Speaker 2>But I was like, is this a joke? Like chicken sweaters,

0:40:26.280 --> 0:40:28.759
<v Speaker 2>and she was in Australia and she said, may I

0:40:28.840 --> 0:40:32.200
<v Speaker 2>send Coco a few pieces? And I thought it was

0:40:32.280 --> 0:40:34.239
<v Speaker 2>so funny. I was grateful, but I thought it was

0:40:34.280 --> 0:40:36.400
<v Speaker 2>so funny. I was like Coco, I was like, you

0:40:36.400 --> 0:40:40.719
<v Speaker 2>have fans now, like you're sending you swag. She did.

0:40:40.760 --> 0:40:44.960
<v Speaker 2>She send Coco sweaters, multiple ones, really really adorable sweaters,

0:40:45.000 --> 0:40:48.759
<v Speaker 2>and Coco she wasn't mad. I always thought Coco was

0:40:48.800 --> 0:40:52.279
<v Speaker 2>like Mimi LaRue, like reincarnated, because she liked to go

0:40:52.400 --> 0:40:56.040
<v Speaker 2>everywhere with me. She didn't like to go outside like

0:40:56.360 --> 0:40:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Mimi was like that. She was just like like to

0:40:58.480 --> 0:41:00.800
<v Speaker 2>snuggle and stay with me. Didn't to go and walks

0:41:00.800 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 2>and stuff. And she liked to wear clothes, which mem did.

0:41:03.640 --> 0:41:06.880
<v Speaker 2>So I'm like, okay, anyway, yeah, so she always was

0:41:06.880 --> 0:41:11.279
<v Speaker 2>in a chicken sweater. Anyway. Oh so Cocoa and I

0:41:11.360 --> 0:41:14.520
<v Speaker 2>were driving in the car and I was like starving,

0:41:14.960 --> 0:41:17.000
<v Speaker 2>which should have been my first clothes pregnant, but I

0:41:17.080 --> 0:41:17.920
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh my gosh.

<v Speaker 2>and a drink. That's my order and I'm sticking to it.

0:41:35.800 --> 0:41:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god. I was so sad for years when

0:41:38.000 --> 0:41:40.120
<v Speaker 2>they took away the Mexican pizza. But now it's back,

0:41:40.160 --> 0:41:43.360

0:41:45.440 --> 0:41:47.399
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh my god, I don't feel good.

0:41:47.560 --> 0:41:48.719
<v Speaker 2>And now it's not because.

0:41:48.480 --> 0:41:49.240
<v Speaker 3>I ate it fast.

0:41:49.440 --> 0:41:51.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't really ate it fast, but I was like

0:41:51.840 --> 0:41:53.719
<v Speaker 2>I had to pull over and I was like vomiting

0:41:53.719 --> 0:41:55.680
<v Speaker 2>on the side of the road, and I called my

0:41:55.760 --> 0:41:58.239
<v Speaker 2>production team on Tori and Dean. I was like, oh

0:41:58.280 --> 0:41:59.680
<v Speaker 2>my gosh, you guys, I don't know if I'm going

0:41:59.719 --> 0:42:01.680
<v Speaker 2>to make it out there and the book people and everything.

0:42:01.800 --> 0:42:04.160
<v Speaker 2>I was like, I'm throwing up everywhere, and they were like,

0:42:04.160 --> 0:42:06.040
<v Speaker 2>are you okay? Do you need to go home? And

0:42:06.040 --> 0:42:07.480
<v Speaker 2>I was like no, I just I just need it

0:42:07.520 --> 0:42:10.000
<v Speaker 2>a few minutes and then I'm going to you know,

0:42:10.120 --> 0:42:13.680
<v Speaker 2>press on. Work is first, so so I waited and

0:42:13.719 --> 0:42:17.200
<v Speaker 2>I felt a little better. No Taco bell left behind,

0:42:17.280 --> 0:42:19.600
<v Speaker 2>So then after I felt better, I did eat the

0:42:19.640 --> 0:42:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Taco Supreme that I hadn't because I'd only eaten the

0:42:22.120 --> 0:42:24.400
<v Speaker 2>brit Of Supreme, and then Coco and I pressed on.

0:42:24.560 --> 0:42:27.359
<v Speaker 2>But the whole weekend we're filming photos and everything doing

0:42:27.440 --> 0:42:29.080
<v Speaker 2>and I was just like, I am so sick. I

0:42:29.080 --> 0:42:29.840
<v Speaker 2>don't know what's wrong with me.

0:42:29.880 --> 0:42:30.239
<v Speaker 3>I can't go.

0:42:30.520 --> 0:42:34.239
<v Speaker 2>I remember one of my producers on Tori and Dean

0:42:34.239 --> 0:42:35.600
<v Speaker 2>and she's like, do you think you're pregnant?

0:42:35.640 --> 0:42:36.360
<v Speaker 3>I was like no.

0:42:36.680 --> 0:42:39.120
<v Speaker 2>I was like no, no, no, it's been three years between.

0:42:39.520 --> 0:42:42.719
<v Speaker 2>You know, I had Liam and Stella fifteen months apart. Came,

0:42:42.760 --> 0:42:44.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, they came and they wanted to and then

0:42:44.680 --> 0:42:46.400
<v Speaker 2>it had been a three year gap, and I was like,

0:42:46.480 --> 0:42:47.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, no, maybe it's.

0:42:47.600 --> 0:42:48.360
<v Speaker 3>It's not going to happen.

0:42:48.400 --> 0:42:51.880
<v Speaker 2>No, why wouldn't it Why wouldn't it have happened? So

0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:54.120
<v Speaker 2>I didn't think much of it. Got back from Joshua

0:42:54.160 --> 0:42:58.279
<v Speaker 2>Tree and the next day it was Valentine's Day and

0:42:58.360 --> 0:43:01.480
<v Speaker 2>we opened inventory on Valentine's.

0:43:01.000 --> 0:43:04.960
<v Speaker 3>Day, which he thought was like a cool fun we had.

0:43:05.040 --> 0:43:08.560
<v Speaker 2>The crew was filming it and we'd fight it like

0:43:08.680 --> 0:43:11.560
<v Speaker 2>all celebrity friends. And we opened up the doors and

0:43:11.600 --> 0:43:15.719
<v Speaker 2>all fans and shoppers came in and we had like

0:43:15.800 --> 0:43:18.400
<v Speaker 2>a welcome party and there was champagne and cookies and

0:43:18.440 --> 0:43:19.359
<v Speaker 2>florals and it was.

0:43:19.360 --> 0:43:20.400
<v Speaker 3>Just all like done.

0:43:20.719 --> 0:43:23.239
<v Speaker 2>But I was already so exhausted from this weekend of

0:43:23.320 --> 0:43:26.279
<v Speaker 2>filming all the content for Celebratory in my book and

0:43:26.320 --> 0:43:30.239
<v Speaker 2>then coming back opening a store and filming my TV

0:43:30.360 --> 0:43:34.200
<v Speaker 2>show opening the store. But after we had filmed everything,

0:43:34.800 --> 0:43:39.919
<v Speaker 2>the party was still going on for the store and

0:43:40.719 --> 0:43:42.640
<v Speaker 2>I said to my producer, the same one that asked

0:43:42.680 --> 0:43:44.640
<v Speaker 2>for when I was pregnant, I said, I'm really sick.

0:43:44.800 --> 0:43:46.839
<v Speaker 2>I got and she's like, you're sick again. I was like, yeah,

0:43:46.880 --> 0:43:48.239
<v Speaker 2>I got to go home. I don't know what to do.

0:43:48.960 --> 0:43:52.640
<v Speaker 2>And so Dean was going to stay behind because we

0:43:52.640 --> 0:43:55.160
<v Speaker 2>owned the store together and he was going to welcome everybody.

0:43:55.160 --> 0:43:57.200
<v Speaker 2>And it was like the last thirty minutes of the party.

0:43:57.920 --> 0:44:01.640
<v Speaker 2>So I went home and she drove me home and

0:44:01.680 --> 0:44:04.160
<v Speaker 2>I said, you know what, I don't know. I think

0:44:04.160 --> 0:44:06.000
<v Speaker 2>I might be pregnant. And she was like, oh my god.

0:44:06.400 --> 0:44:08.880
<v Speaker 2>So she got me home, put me in bed, and

0:44:11.880 --> 0:44:16.399
<v Speaker 2>got a pregnancy test. So we got it and then

0:44:16.680 --> 0:44:18.920
<v Speaker 2>it confirmed I was pregnant, and then I didn't believe it.

0:44:18.960 --> 0:44:22.440
<v Speaker 2>So I called Moran and I was like, this can't be.

0:44:23.280 --> 0:44:24.880
<v Speaker 2>This is so bizarre, and he's like, it's you. Of

0:44:24.920 --> 0:44:27.680
<v Speaker 2>course it can be. And I said, okay, I need

0:44:27.719 --> 0:44:30.799
<v Speaker 2>another confirmation. So he brought five more tests over I think,

0:44:31.520 --> 0:44:33.000
<v Speaker 2>and he stood outside the door and I took all

0:44:33.000 --> 0:44:33.879
<v Speaker 2>of them and they were all.

0:44:33.800 --> 0:44:35.680
<v Speaker 3>I was pregnant. I was pregnant. I was pregnant. Okay.

0:44:36.280 --> 0:44:40.680
<v Speaker 2>So then I was like, oh my gosh, it's Valentine's Day.

0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:43.920
<v Speaker 2>This would be the best reveal ever to Dean that

0:44:44.000 --> 0:44:46.960
<v Speaker 2>were pregnant. So I took one of my peace sticks

0:44:46.960 --> 0:44:49.480
<v Speaker 2>that said pregnant and I wrapped it up for a

0:44:49.560 --> 0:44:52.279
<v Speaker 2>Valentine's gift. So when the party was over, it inventory.

0:44:52.640 --> 0:44:55.160
<v Speaker 2>He came home and he was exhausted and he was like,

0:44:55.160 --> 0:44:56.920
