The latest are these: (1) I blacked out very briefly this morning when I stood up too fast in the closet and ran straight into an open cupboard door. I didn’t fall or anything, but I saw black for a second. (2) I am eating watermelon our neighbor dropped off last night for no reason but neighborliness. It tastes like a big bowl of sweet summer, and I’m hoping it does its fruity job, if you know what I mean. (3) We got a TiVo this weekend so I can watch my crime shows even though I have these evening classes this semester and because of a gigantic rebate on TiVos right now at Best Buy. The setup requires you to “name” your TiVo, so we named it Stivo. Stivo will record shows of its own will based on what we watch and give a “thumbs-up” to. So far, Stivo has recorded some Seinfeld and “Monk.” I’ve never seen “Monk,” but I hear it’s funny. I have already seen the beginnings of an obsessive habit whereby Steve checks Stivo every few hours to see if Stivo has recorded anything for us. Whether we will watch more TV is anyone’s guess, but it seems clear we will watch more TiVo screens.
