Another year wiser?

Well I am a whole year older than I was when I last posted. Officially anyway! I reached that grand old age of 39 yesterday, on the 1st day of advent.

As birthdays post-DM go, I was actually looking forward to it for much more than I have ever done in the last 5 years (I know! I cannot believe where that has gone!) Unfortunately, it turned out to be pretty shit, at least in the day time. Not only did I have to get up extra early for Uni (not helped by the fact I was still up doing my assignment at 2am that morning, in typical OG last minute fashion), I then missed my train (by going to the wrong platform like a durbrain!), and the following was delayed by 25 minutes due to the snowy conditions, so after an early start I was still late for Uni! I also had a presentation to do, which was okay, but not my idea of a great birthday.

Uni over, I came home, only to discover that the club that I had planned for my birthday celebrations had had the music event planned called off (due to the weather again!), and then spent the next hour trying to get in touch with everyone who was planning to come to rearrange to a different, last minute venue. The rearranging was not helped by the fact that my laptop decided to play silly buggers with me and kept refusing to boot internet explorer, so I didn't even have the assistance of Facebook to help me!

Eventually, after a little afternoon nap, and opening of my pressies I perked up a bit, and actually the evening turned out pretty good. Even if it wasn't the original plan!

So, another year older... another year wiser? I'm not so sure about that!
