This is one of the funnier worms/virii/what-have-you I've gotten in a while.
That's all the content. In a 132kb message. So I poke Pegasus till it shows me all the headers and html and whatnot, and what do I find? Eons of gibberish text, headed off by a few lines of nongibberish, the most telling of which is this:
Hiding a worm as information about the worm. Sneaky.
I love having a mail client that munges worms and virii into complete nonviability. *hugs Pegasus*
In less amusing news, I have to catch the bus home today. I'm very scared. The last time I got on an OCTAmobile by myself, that was only because I knew that Becky was going to be getting on it at her stop a few miles down the line. Now I have to get on the bus, get a transfer, go to the maul, get off, wait for second bus, get on second bus, manage to remember to show transfer, and ride second bus home, ALL BY MYSELF. Scared.
I keep trying to tell myself that if I survived Greyhounding to Comic-Con then I'll survive this, but that was different. I was excited and anticipatey then. Today I'm just tired and scared.
Rarr.
