did you know?

... that if you belong to Netflix and you are interested in seeing a movie, there are certain titles that you can watch live? As in, you don't even need to wait for the movie to be mailed to you? Because that whole waiting for a whole 48- to 72-hours for a new movie can be a real bear (especially if you only check out one movie at a time like we do) you can log on and add the movie to your queue and if it says, "Watch it Now!" you can click it and watch it ... right away!

You can "live stream" your movies through a Wii, or a Roku. Or, you can just pull them up on your lap top and watch it wherever.

Like in a warm, toasty bed.

Charlie and I are watching The Young Victoria, tonight. I've added four more movies to our "Instant" queue, although I doubt we'll watch all of them tonight. What with those little red pills that I'm still taking for what appears to be a monster sinus infection ... I could easily stay up all night watching movies. But tonight IS a school night. Which means we need to be responsible.

And it wouldn't necessarily be the picture of responsibility if our children missed the school bus because their live-streaming Netflix addicted parents were watching their fifth movie in less than 10 hours.
