Heads up: I’m going to be moving the site soon to new digs over at PHPWebhosting. The URL and links and stuff won’t change, but if it gets weird for a while just wait, it’ll be back. Promise!

I knew this was going to happen: somebody tried to make a “good” version of the Blaster worm. Stupid dumb dumb stupid stupid! If you know enough to write a program like that, you should know a little about comp sci history, and you should know that the first worm ever created was also supposed to be “good,” and that it was a disaster that foreshadowed all the megavirus stupidity we have now.
See, there really ARE reasons to have a degree in this computer crap.

Well, not in America, no.
- There’s a discount book sale to raise money for the United Way in one of the conference rooms at work today.
- I’m not supposed to let myself spend any more money on books or games this month.
- They had a Bisquick cookbook and a nicely illustrated feng shui encyclopedia. In really cheap hardback.
- I’m weak.
- But I got a damaged copy of the feng shui book for free!
(Yes, I know feng shui is so done. But as I lack any natural decorating skill, I figure it can’t really hurt to look through a free book with nice pictures.)
I’ve been lucky to have automatic deposit for my paychecks from work, because ever since we moved into the new apartment I’d been kind of worried. Living with DC, my Fifth Third branch was only a block away, but downtown I didn’t know where to find one. Eventually we learned that there was an ATM for my bank at the Kroger, maybe a couple miles away. I figured I’d just have to use that.
Then, a couple nights ago, I was looking out the darkened window of my room and finally realized what I’d been looking at for a week–the bright logo on the skyscraper that is Fifth Third’s regional headquarters, maybe a block away.
It takes me a while to catch on, sometimes, yeah.
