Feathered Hair Is Foxy


Being awake all hours feeding the baby has its benefits. One of them is having enough time to watch all 18 episodes of Freaks and Geeks. Realistic adolescent angst with a female protagonist: Judd Apatow can do right by women! Plus, you get James Franco (as the cool bad boy) and Jason Segel (as the sweet alternative), both more appealing than Jordan Catalano. And there's something really comforting about being catapulted back to 1980 at 4 a.m. So today I snapped up this set of Freaks and Geeks-inspired pencils, if only to capture that feeling while writing my grocery list.

Can you believe I've never watched Freaks and Geeks?.. I know... it makes no sense.

Holy cow, what an amazing find! I just found your blog; it's terrific. I'll definitely be reading from now on :)

Missa, I hadn't seen it either! Totally worth a Netflix rent, even just the first 2 discs.

Laura, so happy to have found your blog too!

I've never seen it either, but you have intrigued me with the "more appealing than Jordan Catalano" claim. Did you know I had pictures of him taped all over my room in high school? Yeah, I was THAT girl.

I am recently coming around to the idea that Jordan Catalano was a cad. Maybe it's just that Jared Leto's rock star posing has grown tiresome.

That was such a great show. A favorite in our house. Joe was upset when it was cancelled.
