I bought a Tivo ~2 or 3 weeks ago. I hadn't been home to try to make it work until this week. I activated service & named it from the work computer, and went home to try to use it. (Is Tivo where "...and I'll name it George," comes from? I think it must). It wouldn't work. It is complicated by not having a computer at home, leaving home before phone service starts in the AM, and coming home after phone service ends. So, I called from work today. They think my Tivo has a virus! It's right out of the box! I'll try again tonight.

I like small talking with tech service reps. This one's aunt lives three cities away from where I work, and he wanted to wax rhapsodic about In-and-Out Burger, which alas, I know nothing about. I always enjoy it when I get someone friendly and kind of chatty. I hope they feel the same way about me.

Alas, I didn't achieve much work-wise today - just a few things done. But I have plotted! I have plots up my sleeve!
