aaargh...

Had a very nice day trip to New York yesterday. Hung out with a friend in Brooklyn, went to my first game at Madison Square Garden. Even the trip was easy*, as I managed to catch express trains both ways.

So I arrived home last night ready to plop down on the couch and watch to of my favoritist TV shows ever, only to find that my DVR had recorded ... well, nothing. Not even an error message saying my recordings had been interrupted. It's as if my DVR just decided, "Nope, not working on a holiday weekend."

Lucky for me, the Internets are filled with sites that are happy to oblige my cravings for "The Amazing Race," and HBO will replay "The Wire" about 2,341 more times this week.

But I'm watching you, Motorola DVR, and you better not try to pull any of this crap when I'm away for 10 days starting next week.

(*Well, aside from a brief struggle with weekend subway service. I won't go into the boring details, but for those of you who know the New York system, it involves track work and the annoying 6 train to F train transfer oddity.)
