After visiting friends over on the other side of the state a few weeks ago, the Husbear has been jonesing for a DVR.
I know. How 2006 of us *not* to have one.
The Husbear’s justification is that he could record and then watch his evening news whenever he wanted. Instead of having to be home at 5:30 just to be able to watch it.
As much as I love technology, there is some technology I just don’t think we necessarily need. And the DVR is one of those cases to me. I think it creates the “need” to want to watch television. At least in my head it does. I’m probably weird like that though.
As we’ve been customers of DirecTV for years and years, the Husbear called them to get our equipment upgraded. Well, not “our equipment”, but the dish receiver. Which they offered for free. And for the entire house.
With that announcement, the Husbear decided he now needed a television in the bathroom.
Like most things the Husbear wants, the Husbear gets. That’s just the way it works.
So now the Husbear can spend even more time in the bathroom. Doing whatever. Like reading. And watching recorded episodes of the nightly news.
And I’ll have to go pee outside.
Until next time...

I agree with you that a DVR is not really necessary. It’s personal outlook, but I don’t very much watch television these days. Oh, there was a time I did, but about 6 years ago I cut cable and don’t have satellite.
In away it is liberating. It’s not to say I don’t watch any. I have AppleTV and download much of what I want from iTunes or watch shows and movies on Netflix. However, I have not turned on my television in about 2 months.
I have to admit though the Internet has replaced time consumed by television.
The Mister and I have had a DVR for sometime now, and find it to be a great addition to our entertainment selections. Not only can we record those obscure movies that only air at 3AM, but we can also watch them at our leisure. If the program/movie/special is not viewed within a week, The Mister deletes the file, much to my objection. It hasn’t increased our time in front of the TV – if anything, it has given us the opportunity to watch what we want without endless surfing to find something to watch.
Your Husbear is HAWT. Give him what he wants. Then he’ll owe you – he’ll owe you REAL GOOD. 😉
Peeing outside is actually good for the plants. I’m just saying. I agree with RG about the Husbear — Hot.
It’s a darn good thing he’s a top… excessive time on the toilet is not… conducive… to successful bottoming.
Just sayin’.
