The day was rainy and I was catching up on life and tings after the past week in Cape Cod. This also included sitting on the sofa before the imminent start of classes on Monday. So I watched the comfort television of The Adventures of Pete & Pete during the afternoon. Life seemed so simple in the mid-90s: Juliana Hatfield is a lunchlady, the Magnetic Fields provide the background music with songs from Holiday and the Wayward Bus, it was okay to wear flannel. Oh but wait, of course, at that time I was stuck in the middle of high school and not happier for it. And flannel never really was okay.
