How I Knew it Was Time to Go to Bed

I was watching War Stories last night and I decided to switch on the commentary because Alan is SO FUNNY in that one. I pick up my DVD remote and start pressing buttons, but nothing happens. I bang on it (why do we do this? It accomplishes nothing, yet anytime a remote or flashlight or something stops working, we bang on it. Crazy.) and of course it doesn't work. I hit the power button and then the DVD player turns on and I realize I'm not watching my DVD, I'm watching the Firefly marathon on SciFi!!Silly me.

Yes, silly you. The question is why weren't you taping the marathon (even though you own the dvd set) like a good little obsessive bc?

yay! Extra points to me!
Not only should I have been taping it (I've got all but a couple of the eps taped, BTW) I was also supposed to be taping NCIS for my grandparents but I got completely sidetracked by Fireflygoodness that I forgot. Shame on me!

Aaarrrghh!! I didn't even know they were running a marathon!! And now my DVD set is, once again, out of my hands and I need dialog help. Grrr. Just proves I need to pay better attention to the TV listings.

Ahaha, that's amazing. I wish I'd known about the marathon so I could direct the few hopefuls around here to it.

Unbelievable! I did almost the same thing...Turned on the tv, was surprised the DVD was running, wondered where the commentary bit I hadn't heard before was tucked away in my DVD, tried to rewind and finally realized...yay! Marathon! More converts on the way to FFF!

You're too funny. :)
Cannot say I did the exact same thing. But I have two Panasonic remotes that look almost identical (one for the 5.1 surround set, and one for the DVD recorder). Just the other day my heart almost stalled when I watched Serenity, for the umptiest time, and the DVD stops responding! I thought someone had unplugged my life! After uttering a few Chinese expletives (the kind that would never make it past the rating commission, had they been in English), I realized I was thumping the wrong remote, again. Pfew. :)
