Spring Break Hack Job

It's spring break over here, which means a whole lot of sleeping in, play dates, trips to Blockbuster, Build-A-Bear and Chuck E Cheese, and the realization that summer will be here soon. I've also just realized that a stuffed dog that plays the Star Wars theme song is maybe one of the best inventions of the last decade. And yes, The Boy could care less that his "pet" plays the Star Wars theme song, so that addition was strictly for me!

So far, the highlight of the week has been the hacking of my email account. Remember my previous post about spammers? Well guess what? I became a spammer and sent hundreds of Viagra messages to everyone on my contact list. Joy. After some investigation, it turns out that LinkedIn was compromised, resulting in thousands of email accounts being hacked. Apparently, even networking isn't a safe activity!

I finally have a few promising job leads, so let's hope that something (anything!) pans out soon. In the meantime, I'll be working on my book, jumping on the trampoline and discussing the meaning of life with the other spring break moms. Of course, these are three separate activities; I'm not nearly talented enough to pull off all three at once.

Oh, and a big Happy Birthday to Kate off the Clock. I've now been blogging for one full year. Quite an accomplishment for a serial non-finisher like myself. As always, thanks for reading. Bring on spring!
