Well, I got the baby to sleep at 7:30 this morning. Then the 3 year old woke up at 10, which surprised the hell out of me since she had firemen stomping around her room at 4 in the morning and looked really confused. I talked her into coming into bed with me but her poor nose was so stuffy (yes, still, thank you Santa-Claus-Line-Kid) that it kept us both awake.<\/p>\n
OK, now look. If you’re reading this, you have a computer and internet access. This means three things:<\/p>\n
1. Get a virus program and keep the definitions current! Update monthly, at the very least.<\/p>\n
2. Quit opening attachments that you aren’t specifically expecting! Yes, that means that you need to stop looking at all your joke mail, unless you know what you’re doing and you’re sure that there’s no hidden executable-type extension after the “.jpg” or whatever.<\/p>\n
3. If you must forward an email on to everyone in your address book, please, for the love of Pete, BCC it. Don’t CC it. This keeps random people from getting other random peoples’ email addresses. Not only is this considerate (would you go around handing out someone’s mailing address to people who didn’t know them?) but it helps keep viruses from disguising themselves as me<\/i> and sending themselves to your boss. Or vice versa.<\/p>\n
In case you couldn’t tell, I got another virus this morning. I’ve stressed virus programs so much to everyone I know that I get pretty annoyed this happens. It’s totally avoidable. Not that it affects me, since I run OS X, but I don’t need all this extra crap junking up my inbox.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
