Please tell us *exactly* what "opened my xterm this morning" means.
Did you run a new instance of xterm?  Did you un-minimize an existing
instance?

Are you using a persistent tmux or screen session?

Here are a few commands whose output might be helpful:

    declare -p PS0 PS1 PROMPT_COMMAND
    ps -fp $PPID
    trap DEBUG
    PS4='+ $BASH_SOURCE:$FUNCNAME:$LINENO:' bash -ixc : 2>&1 | grep YEAR
    PS4='+ $BASH_SOURCE:$FUNCNAME:$LINENO:' bash -ilxc : 2>&1 | grep YEAR
