5:33 PM: I stride dauntlessly limp on my still-swollen mysteriously sprained ankle through the parking deck to my car. Once inside, I crank the car and as per usual, music plays. It's one of the songs from the Red Hot Chili Peppers's newest, Stadium Arcadium. This song, however, is not one of my particular favorites, so I hit the appropriate button to skip ahead to the next.
Nothing happens.
I hit the button again and still nothing. This time, as I press the button I frown darkly at it, because as everyone knows, when anything mechanical doesn't work, frowning imperiously at it usually intimidates it into working.
More nothing happens.
What the hell? What could be wrong?
Oh, nothing much except (as previously reported on this very blog) the CD changer in the Hellmobile hasn't been functional in over a week and I'm trying to fast-forward the radio.

I often want to TiVo real life. Forwards, backwards, doesn't matter, life needs a TiVo, and so does your radio.
Still, heh.

If I had a magic power, that's what I'd want: Life TiVo. I could fast forward through all the yucky, boring, and/or embarassing bits and relive the best bits over and over and over.
