May day! In, uh, more than one sense of the words, I guess

elke_tanzer has the hookup on the latest nasty virus that's going around. She's got all the links you need to know about finding out if your computer is infected and what to do to either fix it or prevent it from happening.

Today is May 1st, which is Beltaine to some people. To others it's May Day and to still others it's "Crap, how many days until Mother's Day again?" (hint: it's next Sunday. At least if you live in the US.) Whatever it is to you I wish you a happy one.

I intend to spend the day writing and making homemade pasta. I haven't done that second one before, so I'll be interested to see how that turns out. I suppose I could go for easy and just stop at the actual pasta part, but I've decided to add a degree of difficulty by making ravioli. This will either be really good or result in a mess. But either way I intend to have fun.

Finally, I want to find each and every one of you who knew about Ben & Jerry's Half Baked ice cream and spank you for not telling me about it. Chocolate Fudge Brownie mixed with Cookie Dough. There is no wrong to be found there.
