yah boo sucks computers

I really hate technology sometimes.

For the second time in about four months, my gmail randomly decided to send off spam to all my contacts. How embarrassing.

I ran a scan the first time and there was nothing to be found. I tried to run one this time but was forced to pay for the software ($40) and then it looks like they didn't even give me a registration number, so I might have gotten scammed on that one.

Anyway, I think that someone has compromised my account, perhaps through my old teaching address I had when I was a TA. So I deleted that. Then I tried to change my password on my current gmail. There was some kind of glitch because it told me my changes weren't saved, but I could no longer log in with my old password. Or my new one. And of course I hadn't changed my alternate email address in a while, and it is no longer active.

I had to go through the security settings and reset my password, and now I'm waiting out the 24 hours that my account must remain inactive before I can recover the account through my security question (which hopefully I remember the answer to).

GAR.

In other news, there's a running joke between Andy and I that you can see Signal Hill from anywhere in the city, except from our house. Well, I have discovered that if you lean over the sink and it's winter and all the leaves are gone, you can make out Signal Hill behind some trees on the right. So there.

We're also experimenting with cupcakes for the wedding, and I'm testing them out on willing participants at work and school. Seems to be going well so far.
