Please, ladies and gentlemen, do try to hold your excitement when I tell you the momentous news. I, being of sound socially functional mind and body, have done something so incredible, I scarcely believe it myself:

I have returned a DVD to Netflix.

Nay, I have returned two to the loving bosom of the movie mail-rental company.

This is a feat that has not been seen in nearly eighteen months! Many thought it impossible that such a thing would ever be achieved again, but I have sallied forth and deposited the envelope securely in the proper receptacle for the United States Postal Service to retrieve and thenceforth deliver to its rightful owner. Zounds!

Dude, I so have you beat. I have had The West Wing: Season 1: Disc 1 since 08/25/04. (Primarily because I don't know where it is now.)

No clue. :) I refuse to admit defeat! I will find it!

That sounds like how I do Netflix. Though I was quite proud of myself when I found several "missing" DVDs (like, went missing in the process of moving two years ago) a couple months ago and sent them back in AND GOT MY LOST DVD CHARGES BACK! Woot!

. . .

*looks at 2 DVDs on her coffee table*

I should probably return those.

I use that to double-check the credits on the reviews at Classic-Horror. It's immensely useful for such things.

Speaking as the post office employee who has to pull those fuckers out of his machine every single day...

...take your time. Really. Honest!

You get a pass, what with being in a different continent and all. :)

ROFL. That was SO ME when I had my Netflix account. I'd keep dvds for like a billion months and pay SO MUCH MORE than the cost of buying the damn thing in monthly dues.

I used to do that but have been totally good lately, maybe because I only get one at a time now so it's like, wow, if I want ANYTHING else, I totally have to send this back!

Yeah, but I totally did want other movies. I just, um, was too lazy. Now my apartment complex has a little outgoing mail slot right by my mailbox.

*falls over laughing*

Man, I had nowhere near that fanfare when I mailed mine back. Of course, I'd only had them 3 months.

so the question is do you even know what is in your queue or what movies they will be sending you next?

...does this mean you're on the straight and narrow now? HAVE WE LOST YOU TO THE LIGHT SIDE?
