Keep it under control

Recently I have discovered that there is an entire population of people who cannot stand watching tv. They never sit down in the evening to watch their favorite show. Usually halfway through a movie they get antsy and feel like they need to be up doing something else. I admire these people. The constant need to be doing something or accomplishing some goal is impressive. This however does not describe me. I subscribe to a different philosophy. I love to watch tv.

Now there is always a time and place for tv. Most of life should be spent in productivity. But once that time is over I love curling up on the couch and watching a good movie or tv show. It relaxes me more than almost anything else. That is why I say thank goodness for (#11) Netflix. This combined with the awesome powers of the Wii have given my roommates and I a large variety of shows and movies right at our fingertips. However with this great power comes great responsibility. The awesomeness of Netflix must be used with caution and control or it is likely to take over your life. Work was really slow today and so thanks to Netflix I ended up watching an inappropriate amount of Prison Break today. (Anyone who has watched Prison Break can attest that this is not my fault, I was sucked in and there is no return.) So those who are members of the tv viewing party I say embrace the powers of Netflix, but please proceed with caution.
