spike, bloody-hell
I screen anonymous comments. I delete spam comments. I log and 'whois' IP addresses of anonymous comments that I am unsure about but do not un-screen or delete them. You will only see your anonymous comment if I un-screen it because you have signed it and I believe that you are who you say you are. I get an email for every comment on this LiveJournal be it screened, anonymous or from a verifiable signed in, openID or LiveJournal account source. Commenting that you are testing by commenting anonymously will not give you any testable results - the comment will be screened (and so invisible to you) or deleted.

Just sayin'.



Say no to gnomes!

When I first saw the new Ikea advert on UK TV for their outdoor range, I thought that the music used was something from the "Plunkett and Macleane" (imdb.com) sountrack, composed by Craig Armstrong (iTunes link), but it turns out that I was mistaken and it was actually "Time for Change" performed by The Palace Of Budapest Philharmonic Orchestra and is available to buy as a single (iTunes link). I do not know who composed it, though, and is it very reminiscent of that Craig Armstrong soundtrack.

ETA: from groolover in comments:
it's apparently an orchestral arrangement of a Mötley Crue song!

Pain-count = 9. I give up with trying to cope with this pain without pain meds.

Taking co-codamol. Migraine/weather-head still/again. This is getting really OLD.

Moving my eyes HURTS. Moving my head HURTS. Sitting still HURTS. Damned weather.

I have been knitting multiple WTP samplers each day because that and the occasional audiobook podcast is almost all I can manage to do. I really need to get around to blogging some of them soon because I have so many knitted but not blogged. I should count them.

ETA: The pain meds did help a few hours later. I should resort to them sooner, I suppose, but I resist that urge because I do not want rebound headaches on top of these weather-triggered headaches / migraines. I should also try to remember the herbal and other therapies that help but only seem to remember them once the pain is reduced enough that I can think more clearly. Catch 22.

Star Trek: Into Whiteness

I really want to see this movie and Cumberbatch is one of the draws for me but I find the whitewashing of Khan disappointing.

I found more leftover yarn!

yay, yay-cat
Yes, that means that I have to photograph it and enter it into Ravelry and yes, it is not all pale or smooth/mercerised and so I cannot use it all for WTP samplers (which need to be knitted using smooth/mercerised yarn and preferably with pale colours, both to better show stitch definition) but YAY! Yarn! I think I officially almost have a stash! Some of it is even still in its ball-bands!
