Taxes Done

Published by under Personal

This time of year is never my favorite period, but I always manage to get through it. Going through receipts is never a fun thing to do, but thanks to TaxCut, this year’s taxes were as easy as ever to do. I used to use Turbo Tax but they moved self-employed support to a higher-priced […]

Chiropractor – Visit #2

Published by under Personal

This visit over and done with quite fast compared to yesterday. I did get an adjustment which was painful, but wasn’t as bad as the first one. I feel better today than I did yesterday. I’m trying to stay ahead of the bulk of the pain by icing it every two hours like the chiropractor […]

Chiropractor – Visit #1

Published by under Personal

Wish Me Well

Published by under Personal

So after back problems off and on for what seems to be ever, I’ve decided to give a chiropractor a call. I’ve got an appointment set up for tomorrow morning. I know my weight is no doubt a problem, but it’s impossible to do much to correct that when you can’t really even walk without […]

Another TiVo Update

So after watching and recording CSI and recording another program at the same time, TiVo’s video/audio froze up again and I’m now considering sending the unit back. I just noticed they have a 30 day money back […]

Damn TiVo – Fix The Bugs

Published by under Personal

Well the TiVo honeymoon is over, I’m sorry to say. I’ve begun to run into issues with my TiVo. Actually, it’s just one issue: picture freezing. When watching a show, sometimes it’ll just freeze. The only way to fix it is to change the channel, but this isn’t ideal because if I’ve got both tuners […]

Tivo Heaven

Published by under Personal

I’ve been waiting for a Tivo for years and I finally got one this past week, along with a subscription to Charter’s HD tier of TV programming. I got the programming before the Tivo got here, but I still managed to enjoy a few days of HD programming. Anyway, when I got the Tivo, I […]
