Beyond the Fork in the Road: Entertainment

I spent my blog time this morning updating the movie reviews page. Go take a peek and feel free to argue ratings with me in the comments section! ;)

I have no TV but love (love!) movies, and, when I need to relax of an evening and not think, I'll watch my latest from Netflix. (I currently have 196 movies in my queue! How many are in yours?)

Otherwise, it's just snowing BUCKETS today, so I definitely need to go have a discussion with the plow. It's going to go like this, "Plow? In years past, you have not been much help when it comes to attachment to the truck. This year, I will do all that I can to make your job easier, and so I expect you to handle your part of the bargain smoothly, 'kay? If you do that, we'll go out plowing this afternoon, and I know both of us really enjoy that!"
