I Don’t Have Cable, Therefore I Netflix…..Confessions of a True Binger….

….With A Wandering Mind

Yes, that’s the end of the oh-so-long title of this post. Hmmmm. That alone might give you an idea of what you’re in for while reading, so proceed carefully and have some fun! You might be up for a few fun reads and maybe this will provide you with such! By the way, read the next 3 questions at a speedy rate, as per the way they fly through my mind. Just sayin’.

Where are they?

What’s going on?

What will I do without them?

These are the inane questions I ask myself for up to a week after a session of season bingeing a show for a few weeks. I’ve learned, however, to start scoping out my next target before I actually finish the last episode of the last season of the current binge.

Whew! Mind you, I still hold myself involved with the people I’ve followed for the last short while. We’ve become close as I’ve laughed, cried, and made fun of them and myself all at the same time! More so on the latter part. Months later, I’ll wonder every now and then how everyone is and what they’re up to lately. I’m quite sure it goes both ways. You don’t just leave family behind like that. With the push of a button. On a remote control.

If I haven’t lost you yet – good, that means you have a liking for the other “New World Order”…. Netflix. The King of Bingeing. Also, #Netflix and #ing everything. In Olde English that’s ‘hashtag Netflix’ and ‘hashtagging EVERYTHING’. One of these new things I’ve aced, Netflixing (see, I can even verb the word or at least use it other than a noun -lol- and don’t even get me started on that new form of language).  The other new thing, #ing, not so much. I’m afraid of being left behind in this new world of speed, with so many ways to communicate quickly and so many new techy gadgets. Like, I watch Netflix through my Wii. WTF? No, that doesn’t mean Why The Face, it means What The Frick. Right? Maybe we can explore that shortened version of the written word as well.

Come along while I share my vast wealth of Netflixing and maybe you can help me learn some hashtagging habits! We might as well learn some more ROFL’ings and LOL’s while we’re at this #ImaNetflixBinger #helpmehashtag #nowomanleftbehind #whatdothoselettersmean

This post was to introduce myself somewhat. I’m Debbie. Hopefully, you will join in at some point and this won’t be as one-sided as this first post seems! My next post will be on the 3 blissful months of wholesomeness I spent in Stars Hollow, with spunky Lorelai and cute, wellread Rory of The Gilmore Girls. Then, my too-short months of pure raunch and hilarity at its best with my Southside Chicago family, the Gallaghers, in Shameless.

In true binge style, bras are forbidden and snacks are encouraged! Hope to see you then. #Netflixing #TheGilmoreGirls #Shameless #wherearetheacronyms #stillneedhelpwithhashtags

See ya!

Deb
