Day 58 (Erev Shabbos)

Hrm... Today... Hmmm...

Not much, really. I need to get out of the "sitting on the couch" phase I seem to have lounged into over these past few days. (Not, G-d forbid, that I'm trying to tease you Pesach-cleaners.)

Well, Sam cleaned the oven last night, and I burnt it out this morning. Does that count?

Babe-O took a startling two-hour nap, and I continued to sort out our Heartbleed ramifications. The Husbinator, bless him, found an article (http://mashable.com/2014/04/09/heartbleed-bug-websites-affected/) that lists major sites, if they were affected, and most importantly if they've been patched yet. (Until a site has been patched, changing your password doesn't actually protect your account. Thank you) Change your Google, Yahoo, and Facebook passwords, if you haven't done so since the patch. I also had to change Dropbox and TurboTax. There are, of course, lots more sites not listed on the chart. I found a nice tool through the Wall Street Journal (https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest) that checks sites individually. If it says the site isn't vulnerable to Heartbleed, then I know it's time to change my password. Random interesting factoid I learned from the patch list: JDate and Christian Mingle are owned and operated by the same people.

I haven't been following the news all that closely lately, but I was surprised I didn't hear more about Heartbleed. The only time I saw Heartbleed mentioned when I wasn't actively looking for information on it was when I checked Wednesday's XKCD comic (in fact, that's how I found out about it, in the first place). Did any of my more connected people hear about Heartbleed from more traditional sources?

Oh! The other thing that happened today was that the rental car people called to let me know that they now have a car available for us, if we're still interested. Yes. Yes, we are. We didn't tell them this, but we'll call them back on Sunday to make sure this mythical car still exists. We do not want a surprise-no-transportation moment on Erev Pesach, thank you very much.

OK, off to clear my counter and set up crock-pots for Shabbos. But first, I hear El-Babo beginning to wake up from his two hour marathon nap. Later, gators!
