The other day we were watching tv and I had to choose between watching/recording The Hills, Paranormal State and Dr. 90210. You can only record 2 things at once and you can't record 2 and watch the third. Damn you comcast, why do you do this to me?
So I had to choose. I chose, watch Paranormal state because it was the freakiest one EVER and record the Hills. It was a calculated move really. I figured Dr. 90210 would be on as a repeat multiple time this week. I was right.
Scott looked on amazed at my strength. I think I really proved to him that I'm good at making tough choices. He said "that was great babe, it was like Sophies choice"
I'd heard of that movie, but never seen it. I guess it's about a woman who has to decide what child to keep and what child to kill/leave or something.
It's all about sacrificing in these hard times you know? OH, PS, yes we got DVR. It was surprise from Scott. Erin witnessed it. It was no additional cost to us or like only $5 more. So we did it. It's not NEARLY as good as Cox DVR, but it will do.

wow. this post really hit home for me. a few weeks ago, i had a really big decision to make. High School Musical was on...but so was Lipstick Jungle...and so was Dirty, Sexy Money. It was the perfect storm if you will. Luckily, I was able to quickly run to the bedroom and watch HSM sitting on the bed. Crisis Averted.
Yeah, the DVR has prompted a general sense of sacrifice in all of us I believe.
Everytime I hear the word "dilemma" I think of Nelly.
oh my gosh, Katy, SEE SOPHIE'S CHOICE!!!!!
You will cry your eyes out, even if you don't think you will, because you already think you know.
I'm demanding it.
Also, I have yet to make a choice about television for my Tivo, and I'm now seriously questioning why this has not been a problem yet. Maybe I need to get hooked on The Hills.
Wow. These really ARE hard, economic times. I mean, it's not like you're going to go out and get a second DVR or anything. Aah, sometimes I wish I could have a second DVR... then it reminds me that I'm a lazy-A. So glad you're going to be in town for an entire week... Is Scott going to stay for an entire week, or will he join you later/earlier??
