The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Of course I have a telephone line strung through the middle of two rooms, but I can live with that for a while.

I still have one of those.

msbelle, you can disconnect the TiVo from the telephone line for days or a week at a time. If it can't get a dial tone, it will reschedule the call for a day or so later. Just go, connect up the telephone line, go through the menu to the phone connection, and manually initiate the update call when it's convenient. The call will be longer (more info to download) depending on how long the TiVo has been waiting, since the daily incremental update keeps the actual data transfer small. And you won't get any last-minute changes for listings, like if there's a preemption on a day or two notice.

But, better than tripping over a telephone line on a daily basis.

Is it safe to Febreeze a cat? Chumley smells like mold this morning.

What ARE you doing up, Lee? I woke up early, but then I had a long nap in the afternoon and went down around 10....

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Perhaps you could sprinkle Chumley with baking soda and vacuum him?

Yesterday I walked 2 miles to a store and back to buy a DVD player (mine melted!), and then rearranged the furniture in my apartment. I now feellike I have been run over by a bus.

I also moved my bed into my livingroom. I kept falling asleep in my sofa, and I think I was riuing it, plus it is uncomfortable. And I live alone, so I figure, who cares.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

not sure if you can Freebreeze him, but Nature's Miracle makes a dander and odor spray for cats. Just spray on a paper towel or rag and wipe over the cat.

It occurs to me that I was up for only 25% of the day yesterday.

I'm operating on a vampiric sleep schedule myself.

Kristen! Have you even been asleep yet?


Kristen - May 13, 2007 3:08:47 am PDT #7049 of 10001

Nope! But I didn't get up until 4 PM yesterday (and I took a nap) so this is like dinner time for me.

Hmmm...I just realized that I'm hungry.

How are you doing?

Oooh, Nature's Miracle! I didn't think of that, and it would for sure work.

(I bet it would be good for skunk-related incidents, too. Not that we've had any, but it's useful to keep in mind for myself and dog-having friends.)
