No; I didn't think so. And if you don't know the 30 second skip trick referenced in comment 2 you absolutely have to learn it; it's my favorite thing about the Tivo. (I haven't figured out how to do it on the DVR we have on the primary TV.) Would it do any good to point out that Mr. Z and Lil Z are perfectly capable of doing laundry and could pitch in there?

I feel faint. You have two tivos and a DVR? Good god, I really am going to pass out with jealousy. We don't even have cable, never mind a DVR. We still use a, cough, VCR. It's like 1978 here.

I understand the sickness, totally. I almost feel like a superhero, except my power is DVR. Speaking of which, I have six episodes of Dallas waiting for me, what am I doing here?

I have literally had to leave the house because he turned into freak out freddie and it was making me so mad it was either leave or punch him in the face. I am not a violent person. My husband will literally have furniture turned over looking for the remote. He will throw things around etc. God, we are pathetic. :) While it does drive me crazy if I lose something, especially the remote, my husband FREAKS OUT!

I threw the TiVo remote at him (jokeingly) and it kind of smashed into little peices when he ducked and it hit the wall. He should have known not to bring home enchiladas when I have PMS.

Totally. I am actually quite sad now that it's ending. I got a bit attached to those guys. We have the dance of the DVR's on Wednesday and Thursday nights too. Why is all the good television on only two nights a week? It’s worth it so you can Tivo the OC. Totally. I am actually quite sad now that it’s ending. I got a bit attached to those guys.

That ought to cover a few pizza calories! All I know is that you got a *lot* more exercise last night looking for that remote, than I did sitting on the the couch.

Doesn't sound crazy to me. ;-) I HATE when I can't find things. BTW, what do you put on your steamed veggies? I love butter, but salad dressing is great too. If you're pulling the bottle from the fridge, let the dressing get to room temperature before using it. Kraft. is producing a yummy organic selection now.
