And to make me very happy

It seems my UTV has decided to start dieing (overheat?) and one of the tuners keeps failing. Whee. I guess this means I should archive off the programs I have recorded and then look into getting a "DirecTV DVR with TiVo". Another $100. Except this needs a phone line to do initial setup, and I don't have a phone line. *sigh*

I guess the dream last night of me being a cop or hero or something and no matter how hard I try the villain always escapes my grasp is indicative of the frustrations I'm feeling!
