I think I am going to bite the bullet and upgrade my Tivo. Being unable to record two shows at once is starting to be a problem. I can upgrade right now for $250, it is very tempting. Must look at the CC balances. I know I've run one of them up with the bugs and the Drs this past month, just not sure how bad it is.

yeah, I should be doing work or calling school offices, but this is what I'm doing.

upgraaaade. Do it. CC balances can be paid. The question is, can you afford the monthly? If yes, upgraaade. (Zombie TiVo? I don't know.)

Theodosia, do you mind me asking what anti-anxiety meds you're taking? Mine make me nicely not-anxious, but they make me rather less awake than I really need to be.

OK. I have a ton of paper that needs to be digitized, and I don't have time to do it. Can I hire someone to do this? There are people/services that do that sort of random work, right?

I've never been to Paris, but I am really wanting to go lately. We should totally do a Paris F2F.

re: tivo

My monthly won't go up will it? I think I pay yearly anyway. clearly I need to do more research.

The question is, can you afford the monthly? If yes, upgraaade. (Zombie TiVo? I don't know.)

If you upgrade, can you get a lifetime membership? ETA: I bought three years of service for mine when I got it, and now they are allowing me to top that up with a lifetime sub.

I got my Tivo box for free (from a neighbor) and then activated it and bought 3 years of service. Tivo is now offering me $50 off for an upgraded box that will allow both Netflix viewing and recording 2 shows at once. My 3-year plan will rollover onto it and then I'll pick up with a new plan next spring. I'll probably do it before the day is over, just want to make sure I am not maxing out another card.

Why did my phone just reboot mid-post?

What I meant to say was:

Big boy Owen!

One of my car windows is stuck in the down position. The hits, they just keep on coming.

Oooh, that is a good deal.

Are TiVos still as popular as they once were? I am the only person I know who has one in NS, because most people have DVRs through their cable company. I love my TiVo more that a human should...especially now that it's network w my computer and I can transfer back and forth.

I think most people get a dvr through the cable company, it is cheaper if you are paying for cable, BUT, I don't have cable, so for me, a tivo and service is cheaper.

I never got the one I have now working wirelessly, but if I get this new one I really want that and I want it hooked up through my computer if possible.

I hate my satellite company's DVR and miss my Tivo immensely. But the Tivo 3 and our satellite weren't compatible.

The satellite co's DVR is illogical.
