Virgin Blue upgrade to Gold Status

I was greeted this afternoon to a free upgrade to Gold Status! I've only flown a few times with them and I've been a member for almost a year so I thought it was a way to get me to buy more flights. Later this evening I got an email saying "friday the 13th strikes". Nice cover up. It's all over the web now. Here and here. All 2 million members should get the upgrade just for the inconvenience and false hope :)

Random spam on meebo.com

Don't get me wrong I like using meebo. It lets me sign into multiple IM accounts without having to install a separate application - I only need a web browser. The only drawback, which I'm not sure is from meebo or not, is the random people or bots trying to talk to me. For example:

[22:31] flossievuzyzyv@hotmail.com: hey i'm Lynn, i thought you seemed interesting...add me as a friend if you wanna chat ;] http://www.absolutegirlss.net/?profile_ID=xoxLynxox
[22:31] flores741@hotmail.com: get a life

I usually ignore them, but this time it just got a little out of hand :P

Finally upgraded

The site is going to be buggy for a while. I finally had to upgrade my wordpress installation...probably for all the wrong reasons. I had originally planned to do it when I took a few days off but I kept putting it off. My cousin Mark alerted me to some interesting PHP errors on his site this morning. Upon further investigation it looks like someone has found an exploit in my outdated wordpress installation. So anyway I took a few hours tonight trying to upgrade. If you can see this post, at least that is working. It's not going to be pretty for a while but at least it's still up lol!
