After hitting friends?skip=5million, I think I'm finally caught up with livejournal. I took a weekend off from it without meaning to -- Saturday I was quite busy bonding with my new TiVo, and Sunday I ended up flattened by the sinus headache that wouldn't die (and still won't, actually, though it's much improved.)
TiVo is truly a beautiful thing. I fully understand why there is such a cult built up around it (and do you think it's a coincidence that the TiVo remote is shaped suspiciously like a popular brand of vibrator)? I have now set Season Passes for absolutely everything on television. There is nothing left that I will not be watching - or at least recording and storing until I decide I didn't need to see it that badly after all. When I forget what day it is, the TV I missed will be right there waiting for me. I now know about shows I didn't even know existed, but which I now find an urgent need to watch. Just fabulous.
And I can rewatch this week's Stargate over and over without even having to rewind a tape! My joy is boundless.
So tonight, I'll go see the Bourne Supremacy, and then I'll go home and see what my friend the TiVo taped for me during all these long hours when we had to be parted.
