Ode to the death of me

DVR is the death of my free time. Now you might be thinking that DVR should be giving me more free time, but it's not. Let me explain. When I like a TV show I usually try to avoid actives that will conflict with me watching it. But most of the time social interaction wins out over sitting in front of the TV. But now what is happening is that I am DVRing all this freaking shows that I have always wanted to watch and now can. So I am still going out doing my thing, but then I come home to watch TV when I should be doing dishes, cleaning, sleeping or bathing. So all my down time is now TV time.

Here are the following shows that my DVR is set to record:

Heros
Studio 60
Dance Life
Jericho
Top Design
Ugly Betty
Grey's Anatomy
Men in Trees
Property Ladder
Flip that House
Desperate Housewives
Brothers and Sisters

Do you see that? It's insane. I don't need to be watching all this TV, but the damn DVR makes me. Arghhhhhhhh.

PS - Jericho is quite amazing. All the episodes are on YouTube if you want to check it out. Who knows, you might really like it.

I am planning a housewarming party for March 3rd, all are welcomed. Since roomie and I want people to bring us gifts we feel it only fair for us to provide basic food and beverage. Food part is pretty easy; party pizzas, bourbon meatballs, bruschetta, spin dip, crab rangoon and cupcakes. The booze part I am having issues with. We want to have a variety but not break the bank. I am thinking about some sort of spiked punch then have some beers, wine and N/A products. I have never made a Jungle Juice or Summer Beer before, but these 2 recipes are coming highly recommended. If anyone has any great ideas I am all ears. I hope it's a good party. It would blow if it sucked mainly because I live there and can't really leave. Blah to that.
