For some reason I keep getting spammed by Ultimate Software, and I email them to tell them to stop (I managed to find a name of a person) and then six months later I get spam again, and I email poor TC again.
Today was one of those days. People might not be jerks, but there should be a
good
explanation for why they keep slipping up here (remove me entirely from your system!) and that would let Sales get back to willing subjects.
I also got spammed at my personal address by an aunt of mine who either is spamming or got hacked. It's depressingly hard to tell.
Co-worker brought in bourbon fudge. Seriously, when you open the box, it's like walking into a bar. Booziest fudge EVER.
The day is starting to look up.
Until I pass out.

There are discussion boards devoted to hacking webcams on women's computers. Scary.
OK, this is the first cold-like illness where I have finished off an entire bottle of DayQuil--50% bigger!--and one and a half small bottles of cough syrup. Nastiness.
I swear, once I saw my webcam light blink out of the corner of my eye, and I almost set my laptop on fire. And then installed remote control software on my father's computer, BUT I NEVER USE IT. I think he knows it's there...
The webcam related stuff that grossed me out was the PC rental company alleged to be recording customers: [link] including sex and naked minors and stuff. 14 year olds with unsecured internet connections are one thing, but...just ick.
In continuing news of how low my bar can go, I thought my cold was gone today. I can't breathe through my nose, but "not clawing my face off" was such a big win I forgot some of the other symptoms.
Steph--I ended up buying a tie from that site you said Tim was shopping from. Enough Macy's. Nothing exciting or geeky, but I needed one in cream, so I got this [link] in microfiber.

You can thank Jilli for that. She linked it in a Gothic Charm School post once, and I've had it bookmarked since then, waiting for a reason to buy him a fancy tie. (My other choice was the ampersand tie, because it seemed fitting for a wedding.)
Unrelatedly, now that I've eaten the bourbon fudge, I have a headache. I call no fair.

Cyberoptix makes wonderful ties. I saw this tie from Binarywinter at ECCC and am KICKING myself for not having purchased it at the show.
I took some allergy meds I was certain were non-drowsy, but it turns out they are not. Naturally this happens on a day when I decide to be good and drink water instead of Diet Coke...
