LiveJournal != Twitter
Right, I've had enough. If you're going to mirror your Twitter updates to LJ, one post per tweet, I'm really done with having you on my bookmarked view. I'm not going to "de-friend" people for this, but I am going to filter you out and therefore might miss anything you say that's longer than 140 characters and potentially interesting ( Read more... ) -
Go, go, gadget recuperation.
Incredibly, my ankle is feeling a lot better today. I can't rotate it to the side easily, but the pain is almost gone and I can walk pretty much normally.

More owie.
I was taking the stairs down to the northern line at Bank when I missed my footing and twisted my ankle. Even over the music in my headphones, I think I actually heard the crack as the joint dislocated and then popped back into position (though bone-conduction may have something to do with that).

Climbing woe :(
Dammit. Ten minutes after arriving at the climbing center, I dropped off the bottom of a quick, easy climb about 2 feet onto the bouldering mat and my right knee just refused to bend. I think I may have damaged something. It's now incredibly painful, but, amusingly, only when I try to bend it - this makes going upstairs rather annoying ( Read more... ) -

Am I missing something, or is there really no way on FaceBook to filter event attendees so you can see which of your friends are going to something? (or not going, or maybe going...or any combination really)
This seems like such an obvious thing to want to do, and incredibly easy from a technical perspective... -

Owie.
The tendons in my fingers are killing me. Not carpal tunnel, thankfully, this is entirely due to there being some great new overhang routes at The Castle. There's also an entirely new set of boulder ladder routes to attempt. I'm intending to enter the ladder competition every month this year, so that, hopefully, by the time the SIBL ( Read more... ) -
Dear Lazyweb...
I'm running FireFox on Ubuntu (gutsy gibbon I think) and youtube just does not play well much of the time.

The above link just shows "We're sorry, this video is no longer available", yet I know it works on maddiekat's machine. I get ( Read more... )
