I’m getting ready to head for bed, but before I collapse onto my memory foam mattress, I wanted to check in with you guys. (Never mind the fact that I have a pillow-top Doctor’s Choice mattress, and not a memory foam.)

Guess what arrived on my doorstep yesterday afternoon? That’s right… my Tivo!! I’m proud to be coming out of the dark ages, and having a DVR system rather than relying on my brain to remember to set the VCR, and set it correctly. Of course, I unpacked it first thing, tried to make sense of the mess of wires, and got through the general set-up. I had plans to go to church so I didn’t have too much time to play with it, but I picked a few shows at random to have it record. Because you can’t have a Tivo and not have it recording something as soon as humanly possible!!

In fact, Sarah and I ended up watching one of those shows tonight while we waited for it to be time for How to Look Good Naked. So far, I like the Tivo, but I still need to figure out how to wire it up so I can run both the Tivo and my DVD player without having to move wires at all. I also will be spending a little bit with the manual to see what all I can do… gotta max out the potential here! Whatever happens though, I’ve already scheduled a season pass for the most important show — LOST season premiere next week!
