Shryke Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 I got an odd virus today, it pretended to be my Vista Security settings and then whenever I tried to enable the firewall it tried to charge me. I have anti-virus software (AVG) installed, so I was a bit taken aback that I picked it up. I did a system restore and got everything cleaned up, but I'm not sure where I even got it, so that is concerning. had something quite similar about a week ago - also have AVG when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!

Tigranes Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 AVG's long since outgrown its lean, efficient beginnings to become another large, pointless behemoths. Ditch it. edit: That said, I don't know what's good these days. Using V3 at the moment but not sure how great it is.

Shryke Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 gah was just making dinner and felt my phone go off in my pocket. i flipped it open thinking it was a txt only to stare blankly at the screen for a few seconds before realising it was a call evidently it was about a job and so i had to pretend to be a normal person for a while it seems however that i'm adequate at talking ****, so i have an interview tomorrow for the role when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!

Raithe Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 The joys of a bank holiday monday.. Tis being quite windy and I've managed to clear out a batch of laundry. Going to take a moment to catch up with the Doctor Who episode from the weekend while enjoying a fresh cup of tea. Hm, juggling time.. have to go pick up some train tickets I've got booked, and ponder on preparations for a potential job interview later this week. And I'm guessing that since it's one of those three-day weekends, I seem to have been struck by a slight envy/jealousy mix over someone concerning the stresses of work/family/kids/loving wife they have. Which is a little strange, but I'm sure it'll fade away soon. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsingham Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Planned on a lazy bank holiday Monday. Actually got bored with gaming within ten minutes and got down to work. Loving it, although have run out of coffee. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

Malcador Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Always find that odd the holidays in the UK never have a name, or at least they never say what it is, always bank holiday. Here every day is given a name to commemorate something. In any event, fun times with the airlines. My mom was due to arrive at 2040, delayed to 2100, then apparently nothing due being sent to an airport outside the airline's network. So they need to get a senior engineer over there to certify the maintenance work, as well as get some agreements to pay for fuel, etc. Lovely communication from them. Now she's due in 1400-1530 today. Why has elegance found so little following?

Walsingham Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 They do have names, Malcador. This is (apparently) the Spring Holiday. According to my calendar. "It wasn't lies.

Walsingham Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Did a good solid hillstomp this evening in a solid drizzle which was quite refreshing. Managed a short 100m sprint afterwards. Good lick of speed too. But didn't take it any further as I was worried I might jelly my back. Savagely pleasing to be able to run once more. Celebrated with cherry seven up, pizza, and ice cream.

Gorth Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Pick up some Jaundice and you can proudly proclaim to wear your national colours I don't think people get blue feet from snakebites where I live. Got myself a new tumble dryer. It was an impulse buy while walking along a road looking for a furniture store.

My foot is still blue. That would be an adder, yes? Ouch. Hmm, yes, some sort of adder. Not very dangerous. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vipera_berus But it's still kind of painful. I will post a pic of my foot when I get back home. I am sure you all can't wait to see it! I went to the doctor 10 days after the bite because I am a wimp and she explained to me that it must have been a young adder. They do not have control over their poison bladders yet so when they bite they pump in all the poison they have. Older snakes are kinder, they only pump in as much as they deem necessary.

Guest The Architect Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 My mum's been in hospital since last week, has had two MRI's, x-rays, and a lumbar procedure. She has transverse myelitis, a neurological disorder caused by inflammation of the spinal cord, which can lead to long term nerve damage in the back. We don't know when she will be discharged, but right now they're just trying to determine the severity of her case. They don't sound too concerned about it, so everything should be fine.
