Comments screening

Now, I didn't mind the Passion spam too much. Sure, it was annoying, but at least it wasn't obscene. This morning however I received 3 spam comments advertising Indian porn (all to older entries too - if I didn't have comments emailing on I might well not have spotted them). That's the sort of thing that I don't want to have on here even for a moment so I've now turned on screening for anonymous comments. The intention for this is *only* to block spam. Anonymous comments are still welcome and I'll unscreen all the legit ones ASAP. I can't wait until the authentication patch is finally done and people will be able to leave email addresses etc for anon comments.

Catch up

So, I haven't really had time to do much writing in here this week. It's about time I did a catch up, I think

I had a really lovely holiday last week. ( and this is what I did... )

As well as giving me a birthday cheque, Dad had made me a ton of mp3s of stuff I've only got on tape so I had plenty to listen to on the way home as well.

Speaking of which, now that I've got to know it a little, I love my iRiver! It's soooo fab. I've got all my songs indexed and a few playlists and so on created and I wander round the office in a happy musical daze. ( the power of music )

The only thing I've found annoying so far is that on the case there is a belt *loop* instead of a belt *clip* meaning that you have to be wearing a belt or put it in a pocket.

This week has been kind of busy and uneventful if you see what I mean. I managed to go to a snake feeding and not get attacked or shat on by the snakes which was good. I also watched DVDs - I must update my "currently" section (oh, and I'm trying to think of a new title for it - any ideas?). Between pub and role-playing, I've had plenty of socializing and I'm about to have more this weekend.

Tonight, it's the OUSFG banquet, to which I am very much hoping to wear the dress I wore in my first year. Even if I can't quite manage that though I'm sure there will be a few photos of people in formal dress in the gallery come next week. ( shopping stuff )

Then Saturday is Suzies hen night. I'm not quite sure what I'm wearing for that yet - it's dinner, a "surprise" which involves costumes (hired for us) and then possibly karaoke! Still, it should be a good night out. Who knows if I'll make it along to Neals birthday lunch after all that. The fun never stops, does it.

Also, if I ever go up the aisle (v. unlikely!) I would like to have Smells like Teen Booty playing as my processional - "I don't think you can handle this"!
