I mean, Kristen had an apartment in Manhattan.
And they decided that we were going to take the subway to work.
It was like, we're not going to pick you all up. You have to get here on your own. I was like, what? And so I think I was coming for fittings or something.
And Long Island City at the time, maybe, well, this is before Google Maps. Yeah. It is a confusing, windy place. Oh, Lord have mercy. And so... And my kid at that point is, I think, like 15 months or something. I'm not sure how old he is.
And my father has just died. Oh. He has died of like weeks before. And my father was living in Mexico. Right. So I don't speak Spanish. I've gone down there. My boyfriend was sick. I went down there by myself with my kid, not speaking Spanish to try and deal with his, not only his death. I mean, he was cremated, so that wasn't a big deal.
But, you know, his belongings and his finance, everything, right? And so I came back. I'm coming for this fitting where they've, Shelley, do you remember Shelley? Yes, I do. Shelley told me that I had to take the subway or whatever.
And so I take my kid strapped to me on the subway with all the diaper bags and whatnot. Yes, yes. And I get off the train in Long Island City and I can't. And I'm walking around the streets and I call Shelly and I'm like, Shelly, I have my, you know, 15 month old. My father has just died. I'm wandering around. Can someone please just pick me up? So I think they gave up on the subway idea.
I mean, it was like warehouses. Anything could happen. What's happening behind those doors.
Just blocks from each other. Blocks from each other. Yeah.
It was fun.
Well, yes, we're very beautiful. But also, so I have still, you know, baby fat. No. Well, I mean, from my baby. Right, but no. But also, I have literally pimples. What? On my chin. I don't see any pimples. Take a look. Oh, my God. I still have acne. Hysterical.
Well, I mean, that's the thing is like now we look like such babies. But at the time, that was part of the point of the show was that we weren't kids.
We were like mature women. We had these careers. And we were at a point when... you know, Charlotte or other people in previous, you know, we're like, why aren't you married? When are you getting married? Who are you going to marry? Absolutely. Absolutely.
I know.
But I think the, you know, how much sex we're having and going out and meeting people and going out on dates and just picking people up, right? There's all that. Yeah. Which is different. Yeah.
And it's that it's not, it's not, I mean, I don't, there is really nothing to compare us to. I mean, what are you going to compare us to? Charlie's Angels? I mean, right? Right. No, it's a stretch, man. Right. I mean, they don't talk to each other. No, they don't talk to each other.
They just sort of like strut around. Right. But I think that's the thing is like we're having all this sex with all these different men that we're actively pursuing. Right. And we're talking to each other about it. Right. It's like we're together. It's like Bechdel to the umph degree. Right.
That. You know, fantastical things happen on our show. Crazy, zany, like, wow, cover your mouth, you're so shocked kind of thing. But that they had a rule in the writer's room that you could only make a plot line around something that had literally happened to you or someone you knew. It couldn't be like my friend's dentist cat's brother.
I heard one time, right, that it had to be you experienced it or someone that you could get on the phone and ask them about it in detail. It happened to them. So, I mean, I do think that that's one of the reasons it really endures is like it's the stuff. Grounded. Even though it's real. Yeah. Even though it's like, oh, my God, can you believe what happened on the show last night? Right.
But it's real and people really... you know, put them, the writers really put themselves in it and, and located the good and bad and funny and whatever sexy things that were happening to them.
