Older and wiser?
Today I hit a quarter of a century.
On Tuesday I spent a full 15 minutes on the journey to work untangling the mess that my headphones were in, scolding myself for being such a numpty for getting them so tangled up and getting even more annoyed with myself that I was trying to untangle them whilst walking so therefore doing neither tasks proficiently or productively (I am the exception that proves the rule with regards to women and multitasking).
Once I managed to untangle them I made the resolution not to get them in such a mess again (an issue stemming back many years and through a vast array of headphones in all shapes and sizes).
At lunchtime, however, when I ventured out of the office to endure the bitter weather for my run, I retrieved my headphones from my bag.
Lo and behold they were unfathomably tangled once again.
(I have them now sat on my desk beside me where I can keep an eye on them but they appear to have a rather over active imagination and cannot be coerced into behaving).
I think this effectively proves that while I am certainly aging, if somewhat ungracefully, I am certainly not gaining wisdom in my maturity.

Happy Birthday!
Thank you :-) I have wrinkles today.
lmao Really? You shouldn't do, you're younger than me.
Yes, but the stress of web design has made me age unfathomably quickly it seems! That and London smog...
