i recently moved in with my boyfriend, (Well, recently as in four months ago) and he has dvr. At first it seemed helpful, I could record Nip/Tuck if I had to work that night or if anything came up. Then it turned into me recording shows I'd never seen so I could watch them when I was bored and see if I liked them. Then it became me having every single episode of my favorite shows recorded, awards shows, new shows, old shows. Everything.
I quickly became used to simply rewinding to the beginning if I had missed something, and fast forwarding through the annoying commercial breaks that take away ten minutes of a show. I never really watched much tv, always telling myself to focus my time on more important things. I still don't watch much tv, thanks to fast forwarding through commercials and boring parts.
But I realised how spoiled I'd become when I stayed at my moms house the other night. I was laying on the couch watching Lisa Lampenelli and every time a commercial came on I reached for the remote. Or when I missed a part (because I couldn't pause) to get something to drink I wanted to rewind, but couldn't.
So, maybe I should lay off the tv. Maybe this is just a (four month dragging on) phase and I'll get bored of dvr soon.
Oh well, I just felt like writing about it. : )
