So I don't know about you, but I know that pretty much the only reason I look forward to checking my mail is because of my trust bright red envelopes that bring me all the must see movies, or TV Seasons! I am a big fan of watching seasons later because then you don't have to deal with that darn TV suspense and wondering what is going to happen on the next episode. Not to mention that it is almost impossible for me to sit down and actually watch TV at a certain time each day or week to keep up with them. I also hate commercials, well most of them, thanks to the wonderful DVR invention! So now I really enjoy Netflix and the option that they give me to watch my shows and movies instantly on my computer as I work. I began to look through and see all seasons that it recommend to me based on what I liked previously and I wanted ones that I could watch instantly online because I hate silence while I work. It recommend this season called "The L Word" and I could watch all but the first season online so I add it to my queue and send the first season to the top so I can get to the ones that I can watch online. I do not think about it really at all because I have always liked what it recommend before, but this time I did not even read the description of the show. I get the DVD pop it in and think I am about to watch a show about love, ya know I assumed the L word was love! Nope much to my surprise as soon as I start watching it I quickly realize that it is Lesbian not Love! Don't get me wrong I have nothing at all against Lesbian's and actually I support them more than anyone I know! It is just kind of a shocker to realize that your show is quite different from what you expected! I continued to watch all the disks in Season 1, and I begin to wonder why the show is still on air! Netflix has 5 seasons available for them! I am all for a show that supports lesbians, but this one seems like it is poorly made. I am not sure if it is going to get better, but since it went on for so many seasons I have to assume that it has! I am sure it was not very easy to get people to back a show about lesbians six or seven years ago so it probably does not have the budget of some of my more favorite shows as in One Tree Hill or Army Wives. I think the story line is a bit random and choppy as well. I do work while watching any movie or show so maybe it is just not catching my attention enough and I am missing things, but sometimes I really feel confused about how we got to a discussion or situation on the show. I just got my last disk for season 1 and then I will began to watch all the other seasons online which usually goes quick so I will update you on the show then. Right now I am just curious as to if you have saw the show, if you have how did you find out about it? Did you like The L Word? Have you ever got the same shock by trusting Netflix recommendations too much?

Trust Netflix too much? Do you know what “The L Word” really is?
What I am thinking for this blog!
So I sat around trying to think about what it is that I want to focus my writing on here. Those big scary words of pick your niche and stick to it, just are not leaving my head. How do I know what it is that I will want to write about all the time. I am still pretty new to the freelance writing life, and without direct instructions it can be a bit difficult to always find ways to force yourself to write about something within a niche. I thought about focusing on entertainment, but I quickly realized that not only do I want to cover television, movies, music, and gossip. I also want to be able to relate to my readers and discuss things with you that really matter in the everyday world and everyday life. What better way to do that then to write about life! It can include so many things that no matter what you are feeling on a specific day, you can still always write! With that being said, I am going to on vacation with leaving you to think about what is it in life that you treasure the most? What is your favorite thing to do with all of your favorite people? It is different depending upon who you are with or do you just have things you like to include everyone in on? What is your dream weekend? Your dream vacation? What is your biggest goal in life? Where do you want to be in ten years? Are you where you thought you would be ten years ago? What is your favorite part of your life? What is your best memory?
