Conception

So, the idea behind making a blog really came from starting up on Netflix. Well, it was--that was part of it. I had been keeping track of the books I read on this site Goodreads, and I thought it would be cool to keep track of the movies I get from Netflix in the same way.

So that's mostly the point. I also had this idea that I would write about cool sandwiches I came across. We'll see.
