This winter has not been kind to me. Normally, I get sick once during the winter months and am thankful for that. Not this year. And I fully blame the back and forth weather. 40 and sun one day, negative 5/snow/wind the next. My sinuses can't handle it! They feel like they are going to explode. This post comes off a weekend where I spent the majority of my time curled up on the couch under a blanket, watching all sorts of TV shows.
The one nice thing about being sick is the ability to catch up on my Hulu queue and marathon shows on NetFlix. We're a no cable family- so internet TV on our Roku all the way! So here is how I spent my weekend:
This was ALL day yesterday. Made it through 7 episodes. Was actually dreaming about Fairy Tale characters last night (this was probably a combination of the NyQuil and the 7 hours spent watching this show). But seriously, I love it! I really enjoy how they jump back and forth between modern day and the fairy tale worlds. I'm totally hooked.
Life is another one that I marathoned through on NetFlix. I finished this up last week- as there were only 2 seasons of the show before they cancelled it. Thank God that the series was somewhat resolved though. I hate when I start a series on NetFlix and make it to the end to realize that the show was cancelled and the finale is a total cliffhanger (HawthoRNe being the one that jumps to mind). While the end of Life wasn't exactly satisfactory, at least they didn't leave any huge open ended questions.
Guess I was on a Fairy Tale kick this weekend, because I also watched this movie. I kind of loved it. The over the top costumes, the dialogue (as corny and over the top as it could be), etc... Maybe I just love Fairy Tales- but I did enjoy it!
While these aren't sick weekend watches- we're also super into Homeland (on season 2), Justified (catching up on the current season), Luther (a pretty awesome NetFlix watch), and counting down the days until Game of Thrones!
