It's a rule also, never follow a popup message on a computer when you have been gone a week, at 3 am...nope...not a good thing!
Did that only once...went to Sweden, got home at 3 am...saw a box on the screen...I hit OK instead of closing the box...not a good feeling, as you don't get a 2nd chance when it's a virus...it just wipes out everything!
That was in 1999, haven't made that mistake since.
Sewing at 3am is the same...don't sew after 3 am...nope...you will just have to tear it out and start over.
