Addicted

Matt & I got Tyson a Netflix subscription when he returned to the states. We thought it would be a good way for him to get caught up on all of the movies and tv shows he missed over the last two years while in Africa. Tyson loves this gift. We talk about it frequently and it sounds pretty nice.

We finally decided to get our own subscription as well (yep - we let Tyson be our tester). Needless to say, I am ADDICTED! I love that there is the instant viewing option online for some of the movies/shows. I have spent this past week watching nothing but The Office. I always knew I liked this show but never really got to see many episodes since it is on at the same time as Grey's Anatomy -- plus I'm sure the episodes that I was catching weren't in any type of order. So, I started back at the very beginning and am almost through season three. I am hooked! I love it --- and how can you not feel for Jim & Pam.

I also love the fact that we can view different things. Rarely do we agree on something to watch together. Our first movie came last night --- American Gangster --- and is already on its way back. I have some documentaries saved in the instant queue as well --- The Business of being born, March of the Penguins, and Grizzlyman (Thanks Sarah -- I think I may get hooked on the documentaries as well).

Anyway, if you haven't tried Netflix yet and just keep going to the movie store, I would highly suggest just giving it a try. Who knows what you will become addicted to....
