The 'Old Fashioned' Way

Our TiVo died right before Thanksgiving. It happened sometime while we were remodeling the livingroom. We unplugged it for two days while it lived in the center of the room, plugged it back in, and now it will reset to a blank screen and become unresponsive. TiVo has an exchange service which isn't free but is nice since I won't loose my lifetime service, but for the next few days we're watching TV in real time - just like normal folk - and it's driving us up the wall!

Turkey Day vacation was good. It was comprised mainly of the following four things:

1) Driving
2) Eating
3) Drywall & other related fixer-upper house repairs
4) Making sure the dog was okay and not peeing in our shoes.

Did I say driving? Okay, just making sure.

Oh no! No Tivo?! I can totally understand how much that would suck. You'd have to start paying attention again to when something is on television so you don't miss it. And if you don't catch what someone said, there'd be no way to rewind. I'd cry. How long before they fix it?

The replacement refurbished TiVo was shipped today and should arrive by Thursday. It looks like it's an upgrade from my current 60-hour to an 80-hour, though, which is nice. :-)

I'll keep you posted.
