A Moment of Self-Flagellation

After the Great Hardware Fiasco of a few months back, certain protocols were neglected, and that oversight has now come back to haunt us. The computer was infected was Ugly Virus, and Herself has struggled mightily over the past 24 hours to salvage, reconfigure and reboot. We are nearly there, much to our immense relief. Although there are still some issues to correct, I am able to blog (hooray!) and Herself can access her telecommuting services, e-mail and vital FaceBook friends. It has been a Very Long Day, however, full of fury, frustration, and self-recrimination for our own carelessness. We are both feeling a wee bit prickly. One more lesson learned the Very Hard Way.
