See man, that is EXACTLY what I am having a problem with!! I have a KRAZR so I'm thinking that is why, what kind of phone do you have? I can not get the blue light to stay lit, it blinks and then keeps on blinking so I am figuring that is why it is not pairing. My phone never finds the blue tooth device.

Some venting from my journal...

I've come to the point of not bothering to put myself out there anymore. Sick and tired of giving my heart and being shot down like a warplane out of a fiery sky. I learned long ago not to expect anything and to build a tolerance for feeling too much too soon but see, that's the funny thing about the heart. No matter what your mind tells you, your heart will turn right around and utter a big [!@#$%^&*] YOU. OVER all of the drama that seems to cloud my life. OVER all of the club addicts thinking that nightlife is god OVER those that claim to care only to abandon you OVER parents willing to let you starve then to give up cars OVER all of the friends who have a knife made for your back OVER wishing death upon myself rather then feeling this way OVER ALL of you who betrayed/used/lied to me OVER IT REDUX

I've been thinking about this for quite a while but now I have to just come out and say it. And I'm sorry, to alwaysamc, especially, that I have to do this.

The truth is, once my DVD player went kaput, and I got a new DVR, it would only let me record "Days" and "Passions," so AMC couldn't be recorded. Well, I told alwaysamc that I'd come back when I got DVD-RWs, which I did, and then the DVR was so new, I still couldn't get it to record all three soaps (long story.)

Anyway, I have found out how to record all three now, but here's the problem: I didn't mean to, but I DROPPED THE HABIT! The worst thing a soap fan could do! Oh, I feel SO ashamed and I feel...well, like a deceitful little BITCH who betrayed ALL of you!! :( But it's the truth. I didn't mean to, but I dropped the habit, and now, I honestly can't get it back! Between having to watch "Passions" live to record it on DVD and see if it's a keeper episode (and if it's not record over it with "Days" while I go back to work), and all the hassle that takes, I just... I can't! I can't do it all! I'm just not at a place where I can commit to AMC right now. I feel bad,but that's just the way it is. :(:(:(

Anyway, maybe things will change soon, or maybe I'll get into it after "Passions" leaves NBC (because if I get DirecTV, that'll be REALLY fun to deal with since I'm thinking it may air opposite "Days" in my market! We'll see).

But there you have it. The all-too-bitter, ugly truth. :(

I would bet money that Directv will air Passions more than once a day, so don't get worked up about it airing against Days; even if it does in some markets like I said Directv will more likely than not repeat Passions episodes.....

If JERSF passes them up I'll take one........ :mellow:

Have you ever felt like nobody cares? Like you're invisible? Like everyone's walking right through you and not saying a word while doing so? Have you ever felt like you're in one of those movies where the person goes to the past or the future, but nobody can see them or hear them?

I know those same exact feelings all too well! <_<

    • Natalia is back. GH is becoming ff material once again. It's a shame they can't keep up the momentum they had two weeks ago. Lucky is a loser and so is Frank.
    • I wouldn't say Y&R has the smallest budget, nor would I say DAYS has more sets. Y&R has been adding more sets⏤which is great, given their lack of an overnight set crew⏤and they're not the same set re-dressed as something else (like DAYS historically has been doing for years).
    • That’s exactly it. Entire episodes are just two people sitting in a restaurant yammering on about CEO’s or getting coffee in the middle of the night at the always empty Crimson Lights. Where did I say anything that’s wrong?
    • Anita got over being sad and guilty like whiplash. I guess she just needed a Vernon pep talk. Yeah I’m sorry I don’t see the chemistry with nu-Ted and Nicole at all. When Maurice was in the role you could truly feel they loved each other so much and couldn’t keep their hands off each other. I just don’t see this meek at portrayal giving any sort of chemistry. Couldn’t have said it better myself. I wonder how people felt in the 80’s when Drake replaced Wayne as Roman.
    • No question that DAYS has the lowest budget of all the soaps. The only way to overcome that is with good writing, which we are getting on DAYS as of late. More movement? I have to agree. DAYS just feels like it has more energy and actual physical movement among the characters. Scene after scene on Y&R is with two characters sitting at a restaurant table or on a couch having a conversation. It's static -- and it's lazy.
    • JC memoirs Not Young Still Restless she writes negatively about some people. VR memoirs The Women Who Raised Me from what I remember did not really delve into her time on Y&R. VR "novels" Secrets of a Soap Opera Diva and The Young and the Ruthless: Back in the Bubbles its pretty clear who some of the characters are based on.
    • -- I agree that they've taken Leslie's camp as far as they can take it. That works only if there's also a real character there, and we're not seeing that. Every scene with her is game-playing. -- Laura couldn't call IT to have that Notes program straightened out? I get it -- we need to see that Eva is desperately needed, even though she was hired with nothing on her resume that told us she was a tech wiz. But the only person Laura could think of to call was Eva??? -- I would feel more sympathetic to Eva if she didn't continue to cover for her mother, essentially playing both sides. Again, I get it -- we need to see a daughter traumatized by a lifetime of control by her nutjob mother. Still, there's nothing about Leslie that Eva should side with at this point. -- I had to LOL when Anita said she has to call her agent to call off the reunion concert. Huh??? You mean a concert was planned and scheduled even though we haven't heard these three sing a single damn note together?  -- Are we supposed to be taking Anita's side in this Anita vs Sharon battle? Because I'm not there. One day Anita is sad, despondent, and regretful, and the next she's firing back at Sharon and Tracy that "You two are as much to blame as I am."  -- I agree that we need to see the help hired by the wealthy on this show. It's a missed opportunity. -- I continue to like Keith D Robinson as Ted. I think he has more chemistry with Daphnee Duplaix than Maurice Johnson did.

    • The highest rated soap seemingly has the smallest budget. Days has more sets and movement than Y&R and they haven’t had a budget in YEARS. Also their business stories bother me significantly less than Y&R as they actually mention what their companies do from time to time and it doesn’t eat the show.
