Some things I wish I could go back in time and tell myself in 2004:
- Nothing will turn out the way you think, but it will turn out even better.
- This is the most self-indulgent time you’ll ever have – act like it!
- Savor every minute with your girlfriends.
- Watch Veronica Mars!
I know, one of these things is not like the other. And sure, I was eyeball-deep in graduate school and everything that came with it in the fall of 2004, meaning television didn’t happen very much for me then. Plus there was a certain World Series that October. But this show!
8.5 years after its debut, I’m loving:
- The always-adorable Kristen Bell as a spunky Nancy Drew type
- Quick wit and funny writing
- The high/low plot point mix
- Awesome father/daughter relationship
- Amazing cameos from then-unfamous actors
- A great heart
- Hilariously bad lighting
And yeah, this is also me deciding that blogging at all is better than blogging importantly. Enjoy!
I agree with all of the above.

Veronica is soo sassy!
It's so funny, I heard that there was a huge snow storm (that didn't really happen) coming to DC and the first thing I thought of is...I bet Maggie will write a post!
ReplyDeleteVeronica Mars, huh? I'll have to add this to my list of shows to catch up with on Netflix. I'm also going to give House of Cards a try. Have you seen it?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Veronica Mars! I actually got super into it when I was in Grad school and looking for some distraction. I got totally obsessed with it and devoured all the seasons in a few weeks. Veronica, Monk and West Wing are still my all time favorites for when I need a mind break.
ReplyDeleteI love Veronica Mars. Hubby got me the whole series for my birthday. Logan is my favorite. Still have a crush on him.
ReplyDeleteI never watched Veronica Mars either, but have heard endless praise for all of the above. Now that I'm done with West Wing (although I'm not really over it), I need another old show to watch!
