Notes to Self:

• Always listen to instinct. Especially when it says "don't have any alcohol tonight, it'll just give you a headache."
  
• Before calling landlord about lack of heat in apartment on very cold day, check gauges on ALL boilers/oil tanks in basement, not just the one you think is the right one.
  
• Cleaning the cat litterbox more than once per week will make the task less unpleasant.
  
• Sleeping late on Sunday morning will cause insomnia Sunday night, which in turn causes Monday morning to be hell. Of course, I've been making this particular note to myself for years and it hasn't taken yet.
  

In other news, TiVo is still the coolest thing ever. I found out that if you start watching something for a few minutes and then hit 'record,' it actually starts recording from when you started watching. That's because of the way it works, saving everything you watch "live" in memory. When you hit record it just transfers that to hard drive. This can be pretty convenient (or it can be annoying, but not yet so far). I have to use the TiVo more, though, because so far the Suggestions that it's giving me are, well, let's just say they don't really mesh with my viewing preferences. ;) Tomorrow night I'm going to record "Angel" both with TiVo and with my VCR, just in case. Not that I don't trust TiVo or anything ... heh ... yeah.

Isn't it sweet how cats tell you it's bedtime by racing maniacally around the apartment yowling at the tops of their lungs?
