we are TJ MAXX!! we are TJ MAXX!! we are TJ MAXX!!

do you get the "here you have" virus? it was all the rage this week. i got offered it just one time because i am well protected by AVG plus more importantly i am not a eejit. we got warned by two separate sources that there was an email virus that would infect computers simply by opening the email. right, well guess what? that's not true. it just doesn't happen that way. you open the email and CLICK ON A LINK embedded in the email, and by CLICKING THE LINK you ignite the virus. simply opening the email does not instigate the virus. i'm sure you'll correct me if i'm wrong, but there has never been a computer virus that is launched by simply the act of opening an email. it's clicking the links that always does it. why don't people acknowledge that clicking the link does it? because the link advertises porn, that's why. everyone's all like - oh, i just opened the email and all these windows started popping up and then i had a virus, yeah, that's it, i didn't click on a link or nothing, no!

losers.

in other news, i have already done the cleaning and the bookkeeping, so tomorrow is a real true free day when i can do whatever without guilt and by whatever i of course do not mean going for a long run - gah! - but i am considering going for a swim (probably won't happen) and going shoe shopping (probably will). went to the doc today and he said i either have a stress fractured hip or a bulging disc or a bizarre disease of unknown proportions. stay tuned for the continuing adventures of the cake-butt of ace.
