Birthday

I know, I know, I don't blog very much any more. This is a combination of learning about who reads my blog, so having to be much more careful about its content and my intrinsic laziness.

Still, it will give people using RSS readers a shock when a message from this long since forgotten feed arrives.


The reason for me blogging again is purely selfish, it's my birthday!!

That's right, I'm officially 27 years old!

But apparently you're only as old as you feel... with this in mind and in an attempt to gauge where my life is at on this-the-day-of-my-birthday, I ran through in my mind everything that I've done so far this week. I then marked each of those items with the approximate age that activity makes me, thus:

- Dressing up like a prat and pretending to be a crap detective in a dodgy play that my sister wrote for her own birthday (4)
- Playing with lego (7)
- Watching 19 year olds play with lego, (to make sure that the little nippers don't put their eyes out or choke on the teeny-tiny pieces) (21)
- Put together a total of 16 robots and a laboratory with 8 machines in it. (18)
- Attempted to wangle free trips to exotic, far-flung locations from my employer. (24)

Now, as a good scientist, I'll take the median value of that selection.... thus making me 18 again. Brilliant!

Though I'm told that you're only as old as the person you're feeling, so I'm back to 21!
