What I don’t like about NetFlix

I thought I might post something about dancing, but I figure most of you are probably tired of me talking about it (on that end I might get my lovely wife to post something about our dancing up…it will probably be a lot different than my thoughts!).

This last weekend we had watched our NetFlix movies and we wanted something to watch so we went to the local video store.  Guess what? We found about 15 more movies that we wanted to so. So here is why I don’t like NetFlix. They don’t have a good browsing option like video stores.  I’m sure it’s something they are working on, but right now it sucks.  If you don’t know exactly what you are looking for then it had better be a popular movie and show up on their recommendations or you are out of luck.

Okay a little something on dancing. We went to dance class last night.  We started with a group lesson at 7:30.  It was the Tango which we’ve done before. And a ton of people showed up.  I was amazed.  By the end of the 45 minutes we were doing pretty good.  I thought.  I got a bit more aggresive in my lead and what do you know…my wife went where I wanted her to go.  Although I think her hand was probably sore because I was grabbing it a bit hard.   After that it was our private lesson with Andrew. We did a bit of the waltz and the rhumba. Of course he pressured us about going to the next step (which is expensive, but we’d kick ass after those classes).  Oh yeah.  When Andrew goes over the style with Rhumba, which is a bunch of hip movement I can’t help but bust out laughing.  I don’t know why, but I bust out laughing.  Probably because I can’t see myself doing that…but I will.  After that we did the Cha Cha which was quite fast to start off with, but after we got used to it, it was a bit slower. Tomorrow we are off to do some waltz and the hustle.  I have no clue what the hustle is, but apparently its done at weddings a lot…or so I’m told!

    Have to say…I think it’s really cool, that you and your wife enjoy dancing together! I for one, am a “2 x 4″ dancer…and unless my hubs has had “a few”…he’s the same!

    Lujza - We do enjoy ourselves…but sometimes when we’re dancing, right now, we snap at each other because it’s not going the way we want it to. Just needs more practice.

    2×4 dancer…I’ve never heard that before!

    I’m with you on that NetFlix complaint. That’s what Blockbuster has going for them. It’s the same price, but you get twice the movies because you can take them back to Blockbuster and get a free rental. As for the dancing, I did post a comment on your last post but it never showed. Oh well. Glad you guys are having a good time with it, maybe when the wife is done with school we’ll do something like that for fun.

    I’m glad that I’m not the only one on NetFlix.

    I’m going to take a guess that your last comment ended up in spam some how…I’ll check and see if i can find it!
