Weird Dream Channel Gets Weirder

My best buddy George is coming from the east coast to join me at a convention somewhere far enough away that we will be sharing a hotel room. I don't recognize the city, but from the hotel I can see a Macy's. I have not been here IRL.

I find our hotel room door open, George is in his jammies, already comfortably in bed even though it is early afternoon. He gets up and sits on the edge of the bed. We chat, and it becomes clear that this is not our room, neither of us has checked into the hotel yet, he just saw the door open and made himself at home. He is completely unpacked. I don't seem to have any bags.

About the time I have decided to go down to the front desk and check into our real room, a pair of women in their 30's burst into the room and make a lot of noise about this being reserved for their party, and "what will we do? Where will the bride change clothes?". They are assuming this is our room, and the hotel messed up. They leave, flustered, not giving us a chance to explain that this is not our room. In walk the bride and her mother, who start politely but panicky to explain why they really need this room. I console them with "it was our mistake, we saw the door open and thought it was our room". George reluctantly gathers up his things, packs them in his suitcase, and we go down to the front desk, where they tell us we are in the wrong city. The dream ends as we are walking down the street toward Macy's.

Tivo Play Joy

It is so nice to have the play button function again. Wore out the button on my old Logtech remote which is way out of warranty. Bought a new model, and last night watched some Tivo recordings. The Tivo play does a cool thing - if you FF or REW at 2x or 3x, when you hit play it will back up to the nearest start of the show (or ad). Hitting pause simply freezes it at the piont where you hit the button, and you have to FF or REW to get to the start of the scene.
