Hi! I do have some catching up to do. The links still aren’t updated.
Hello. My name is Libby. & I have “TiVo guilt”. Right now, I’m watching Lost. <3 Huzzah for. TiVo!! I crashed earlier tonight, so I would have missed it. What did we ever do before TiVo? Funny..There are posts here I wrote in 2002. About hrm, 2 whole years before I knew about tivo. Now… I have “Tivo guilt”. *hangs head in shame*
What is “tivo guilt”? A friend linked me to an article about it. I need to find it! It basically means I feel obligated to watch what it records. I didn’t know there was an actual word for it. No, I don’t have it do the “tivo suggestions” thing where it records things it THINKS I would like. That would drive me batshit crazy.
I record stuff & keep it. If the show is really a favorite - it is watched asap. But other things I do want to see, but haven’t… Well, I think, “Hey, I could watch it one night when I can’t sleep. I should keep it. I could still watch it.” So, after a bit… No space! So it deletes things. (Only my faves are marked “do not delete unless I say”)
Why am I making an entire blog post about this??
Right now, I have my regular Wednesday night shows recorded. Lost, Criminal Minds (I’m new to this. Quickly becoming a favorite! I recently started renting season 1 from Netflix) House, Better offTed, Scrubs, Stargate Continuum, & a rental from Amazon-unbox. (Transporter 3 for anyone that cares) There are various other sitcom-reruns & whatnot I have recorded, but not really “high priority”.
Help?
Anyways! The only days I really have space issues are Mondays & Thursdays.
Which means… I need to clear some space!
Wow.. Did anyone read this??
