Drove to work and then walked around Wheeler Farm before heading in to my cubicle.  I fell for a stupid Trojan email from UPS and now get to battle a computer all day.

Went over to Wheeler Farm again at lunch time and did another 2 miles. I'm not too motivated to work extra hard today since I will be working most of the weekend.

I'm comforted to know that even a programmer can fall for a trojan. I once 'downloaded the newest version of real player.' It took all day to fix that sucker. Also, I've been thinking a lot lately about grumpy clowns....

LOL - I kicked myself the minute I opened it. I was thinking that maybe my daughter had actually sent me something for Mother's Day because of the date on the package. But the second I clicked the link I realized it was UPS and international packages come via USPS.

Hate that when it happens. Sorry you have to work this weekend.

LOL - Smooth - I actually work almost every weekend (and from home a lot at night). I try to get most of it done on Saturday, so I can take Sunday off completely.
