LOOK. The process of setting up my recordings each day takes five to ten minutes. And we have two DVRs. So rather than spending an additional five to ten minutes repeating the process on two DVRs, I just do it once, and then take my cheat notes into the next room so that I can have my shows recorded in both locations and watch them in whichever room I choose. OKAY? Someone in the household has to be the DVR curator and I accept the mantle gladly and with only a modicum of OCD.

The TiVo creature is sobbing quietly, its antenna bouncing up in down with unfathomable grief.

I color code mine - green for bedroom DVR, red for living room DVR.

Hey, those cheat sheets are very helpful if anyone else has to set Tara’s DVR and try not to miss anything she wants to see.

You had Linda set your many, many recordings for you?! Before it was cute, now I think you may be even crazier than me.

My impression is that I was working off a special sub-list of just the most important ones. I also was not required to do BOTH DVRs, just one. It was usually just a couple of things a day; it’s not like I had to go get The Daily Show every day or whatever.

All in all, it was very reasonable and mostly involved stuff I would have been watching/recording anyway.

Goodness. This makes me feel a lot better about the three pages of carefully typed instructions I prepared for the friend who took care of Sam while I was having Will. A LOT better.
