Word on a Wing
Hoping this goes through... yay Semagic, cause there's no way I could post otherwise.
I'm not ignoring comments or neglecting LJ, thing is that we got hit by a nasty bit of spyware on Friday or Sat, I forget which. We're working to fix the problem, and have made some progress. Well, Karen's made progress to be more correct. The computer keeps rebooting itself, and it's messed up our browsers pretty badly. All of them. However, I can still get to e-mail kinda sorta - on html mode- and WoW works just fine. So does itunes and all our other files and programs. It's not a virus, but a bit of spyware that messes up your computer to pretend you DO have a virus and make you pay for their special magic fix that just happened to appear on your desktop. Lovely. :P My Brother in law said that when he got one of these it took a few weeks to dig the bugger out, so we're not feeling too panicky about it cause we'll get it eventually and our files are fine. All the important Blue Gorgon stuff etc is here. I miss all the other stuff I usually check though. We'll get it fixed soon. Miss you guys! I'll do my best to catch up when it's all better.
We had a lovely weekend though! Lots of birthdays all around. My Mom, my Sister, a friend here, Krishna... Happy Birthday after the fact to all! Still loving CO, and even starting to get used to the twining crazy roads. Gonna start looking for a new place, as well as a day job for me to help make ends meet while I build up BG. My eye is *really* bad right now though so I'm hoping I'll look more hire-able next week as well as able to see quite a lot better. ;P Busy busy busy! So, despite computer and money dramas, I'm remaining optimistic. :)
