I feel sort of bad about blogging on another unrelated SoOh topic because I'm realizing I have just hit the tip of the ice berg of all the neat sights, eats and events that Southern Ohio has to offer. But then again, I've only been here for two months and I have plenty of time to discover all of those things. And occasionally I can indulge in some of my other hobbies; including Netflix!
Endorsing Netflix is a guilty pleasure of mine which I previously alluded to in my last Netflix post but when something is this good, I can't resist blabbing/blogging about it. It seizes to amaze me how well we can get by with just Netflix streaming through Kyle's PS3 and no TV. And when I say no TV, I mean no cable and no network. We have no antenna in which to pick-up basic cable. I know...archaic. But it is more than easy to go without when we have Netflix. Perfect example. The last two days I've spent watching my lovely 6 11/12 (her words) year old niece. I'm tempted to blog a "Kids Say the Darndest Thing" post but I'll resist because seriously who doesn't have a kid relative that they think is adorable...okkkk just one story!
Alright, I digress. So what I was saying is that I had her over and I was concerned that down time would be difficult to have with no Disney, Nickelodeon and/or Cartoon Network. But sure enough, I turn on the ole' Netflix and we see The Fairly OddParents. She was thrilled and I found it entertaining. And the beauty was we could pause whenever we wanted and she could watch as many back to back episodes as she desired. We also watched The Cat in the Hat show which wasn't too shabby either. And on further investigation, I found that Netflix has a plethora of kid friendly television series. So yet again, our Network Netflix can't be beat; we even have kid shows!

Today was the last day Olivia would spend with me after sleeping over at our home. The three of us had a great time watching Adventure Time (strongly recommend) and sharing lots of laughs. Olivia and I were getting in the car and I say something with the word "consider" in the sentence. She asks what does that mean. I say "to decide on something" and/or "think about". I am just pulling out of the driveway and I can tell she is silently thinking about the word (because usually she is chattering) and she says "Would you consider letting me sleep over at your house again some time?" That just tugged at my heart strings soooo much. And I told her "I have nothing to consider at all sweetie, I would love to have you over again". I seriously could have teared up at how beautiful and flattering that was that she had such a good time she wanted to stay over again. Also the fact that she learned a new word and used it appropriately in a sentence in under a minute is incredibly awesome.
