Catching up with my DVR

I’ve grown too used to my DVR. It’s far too handy. I used to kick myself a LOT back in the days of the VCR when I’d forget to record something. Especially if it was a series I didn’t want to miss an episode of or had to be gone when the show aired. But now, I’ve grown so used to setting and forgetting on the DVR that I find myself with a large, time-consuming backlog of shows I have to catch up and by the time I do, my weekend is shot.

This weekend alone, I’ve got to watch Lost, Survivor and 2 Doctor Who’s and 2 Torchwoods. That’s six-ish hours man. An entire afternoon. And if the weather finally cooperates and warms up, I am not going to want to coop myself up in front of the tube which means I’ll get even further behind. So a DVR is a blessing and a curse. Love skipping ads, love watching my stuff on my own schedule. It gives me much more freedom - until it’s time to actually watch everything I’ve recorded.

Ugh.

Years ago, a good friend of mine made me a mixtape with awesome songs on it.

I was chatting to an acquaintance the other day and she told me that she and her mother are making their way through the Buffy the Vampire Slayer DVDs and having a good time.
