A letter

Dear TiVo,

I am so hurt. Betrayed even. How could you do this to me? I thought we had an understanding. I thought you knew me. But after what you did last night….I just don’t know if I can trust you ever again. It is really going to take some time for me to forgive you for this.

Well, I guess I can’t blame you entirely. The WB is also partly to blame. That damn Felicity. American Girl? Whatever. Nick was right. She is a whore. I mean why would they mess up the programming like that? Why would they have Gilmore Girls on a Wednesday night? It is not suppose to be on Wednesday. Gilmore Girls is on Tuesday nights. And to think they would show the Girls on a Wednesday at the same time as Lost? And a repeat no less! Didn’t they know it would only confuse you? You can’t be expected to make decisions like that!

I know, I know. You had no control over it. But when I pulled up my “Now Playing” list, with all my friends watching, only to find that you did not record Lost. Oh the heartbreak. Oh the torture. Oh the humiliation!! It’s times like this we are lucky Nick is recording at home. I guess this will be his way of repaying you for always saving Nip/Tuck for him.

So TiVo, sweet TiVo, now you must understand why I have to modify the Season Passes. We just can’t let anything like this happen again. But don’t worry. You are still number one in my book. No one can beat your happy beeps, your adorable logo, your user-friendly menus. Oh I am so sorry. How could I ever stay mad at you? Forgive me?

Yours, always,

Carrie

  1. what a trying time in your life – i see that things are starting to work out ;). sad we missed you guys this week – i’m hoping to dig myself out from the workload this weekend so i can rejoin the regularly scheduled wed. nights. take care!

  2. HA HA HA HA. Oh my god, can I tell you, that had me laughing in hysterics. Well, my heart sank when you revealed that you missed Lost, because it was a really good one, but I was so happy to learn that you still get to see it because Nick recorded it. Whew. You are too funny. I miss you!

  3. Please dont be so mad at Tivo, he thought he was doing what would make you happy. He was in a very hard spot with two shows to record at once. It had to go with the one with higher priority.

    I see that you are starting to forgive, this is good. I remember life before you found tivo, and I know you are happier with him in your life. I hope you two can rebuild your relationship and perhaps be stronger for your hardship.

    Take heart. we have all learned something from this experience.

  4. It’s kind of like finding a tattoo of an ex’s name in your significant other’s "naughty" places. You still love them just as much, but you’re still so disappointed…
