So, my better 3/4 and I are Netflix people. (I was going to say "subscribers," but it's really more of a way of life for us...) We don't watch much television, don't have cable, and lack much of a life in which to actually spend time on such diversions. Sad, really. So, we get our T.V. fix through renting seasons of televisions through our film pushers.
Recently, she suggested that we take up watching Veronica Mars - admittedly an older series, but it has a couple of things going for it: First, it's over, so there are a finite amount of episodes. Second, all the episodes are out on DVD, so weekend television benders are possible if we stack up our queue.
I was skeptical, but it's not a bad show - Kristen Bell (who was really good in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, by the way) is good in the role, and the supporting cast is convincing. Sure, the plots of the episodes are a LITTLE far-fetched at times (a 17 year old who is as competent as sleuthing as her ex-cop cum P.I. father? Doubtful, but hey... willing suspension of disbelief and all that).
But that's not what I'm writing about here.
It would probably surprise a lot of people I knew in my youth if I told them that I'm not a very social person anymore. I was pretty gregarious as a youngster - I made friends easily, hung out with friends a lot and was socially well-adjusted.
