The DVR Debacle

I love my DVR.
I love that I can pause live tv, rewind if I missed something, fast forward through commercials, and record the end of a show if I just can't stay awake any longer. I love it! I have several shows set up as series recordings....

  • Grey's Anatomy
  • Private Practice
  • NCIS
  • The Secret Life of the American Teenager (it is my guilty pleasure show) lol
  • Glee
  • True Blood

I work nights..so a DVR is a must.. I am just never home when my shows come on... and the DVR should make my life so much easier...right??

WRONG!

I currently have a month of Grey's and PPs to watch..2 weeks of NCIS,and 3 episodes of Secret Life. Thankfully, I am caught up with Glee (loved the Madonna episode!!) and the True Blood season hasn't started yet. lol I am overwhelmed! I am so behind..that I don't know which show to catch up on first.. I know.. silly problem..but I have this issue.. I get weird when my DVR is about 40% full.. I can't delete any of my above listed shows yet.. I have other shows that I recorded on a whim ( of course haven't watched yet) and then the children's programming.. Dalton learned how to record what he is watching..So I will look and see 19 minutes of Yo Gabba Gabba, and 5 minutes of Dora..etc..etc.. on top of his shows that I keep on there (Billy the Exterminator, Backyardigans. Ni Hao Kai Lan, Upside down show, and Monster Jam).. So currently the DVR in the living room is at 63%! Ack! The DVR in my bedroom is at 50%...double ack! Yes I have two dvrs.. I spoil myself..but anyway.. random silly rant over...

So what do you record? What is your guilty pleasure show?

Movies..

I just have to say I love Redbox! (www.redbox.com)
If you have never got a movie from there.. I highly recommend it!
You can go to their website and sign up to receive emails or texts for a free movie every monday!
This week my rental was "Rachel Got Married", with Anne Hathaway.
OMG! That movie was great! Fabulous!
Anne Hathaway is so amazing in this movie.. you almost forget she was ever Princess Mia in the Princess Diaries. She plays the role of an addict who is allowed to leave rehab for her sister's wedding. Parts of the movie were emotionally hard to watch..but I think everyone should see this!

BOOK: "A Great and Terrible Beauty" by Libba Bray

I was recommended this book by Nateah. She told me about what a fantastic read this was and let me borrow it. I wasn't able to get to it right away because Dalton got sick, but once I did..OMG! I read it in one sitting. (late night sitting lol)
Looks can be deceiving though. This is a book geared toward teens, but I loved it! I found out that there is a trilogy and I am very excited about reading the next two books in it.
