November 4: Nano Haiku

A blessing and curse
Netflix sending me movies
Red envelope waits

I love Netflix. I discovered Weeds through it, which is now one of my top most favorite shows ever. It's the movies mailed to you that's rougher for me. I try to watch one a weekend, but that's generally me having to make time to watch it. I know you can keep the movies as long as you like, but it seems kind of silly to keep the same one for a month and not even watch it.

I didn't watch a movie last weekend, so now this red envelope has been on my desk, waiting, watching me, staring at me, for two weeks now.

By mail it arrives
My personal stalker waits
On desk, next to me

I will admit to having once had a movie out from Netflix for 8 months. I eventually hid the red envelope so it would stop taunting me.

Is this like, one of those beating hearts under the floorboards metaphors?

Weeds is great, because the crap that happens to Nancy is all her fault. She's hopelessly flawed and barely scrapes her way through being in way over her head, but doesn't seem to fully appreciate just how much trouble she's in at any given time. The show totally knows it, too, but doesn't beat you over the head with it.

It's hopelessly entertaining!

I ♥ your Netflix haiku! I now have an enormous grin on my face.
