Spam and stuff
Oct. 3rd, 2008 03:24 pmOdd comments have been appearing on certain old entries in my journal. All of them are anonymous. The IP is logged, but that doesn't tell me much.
Some of them are obviously spam. I'm deleting those as I get around to it. Others are, well, basically friendly but don't seem to have much relation to the topic of the post.
Any idea what all that's about?
Also, it has come to my attention that there are lurkers here, people who read my journal who may (or may not) be somehow connected with me. That's fine, of course; I assumed that was the case anyway. But just FYI, more and more of my posts lately have been friends-only, and some are even on restricted filters (such as politics, for example). If you want access to the friends-only posts, all you need is an LJ account (they're free) and to drop me a line...oh, and to reciprocate by adding me to YOUR flist, even if you never write a single entry.

Oct. 3rd, 2008 03:35 pmIt has been six weeks since I broke my elbow. I had x-rays today, and saw the orthopedist (why is it so hard for me to remember that word?). I'm doing great. The broken part of the bone is filling in really well, my stability and range of motion are excellent (the ROM still needs work, of course), and it's time to start building up strength. I have a big stretchy elastic band to pull on and a jar of putty to squeeze. I'll continue with physical therapy for a while longer.
