e-Birthday

Filed under: Friends, Health and Wellness, Family — Duke @ 9:42 pm

I went down to Newbury on Friday to attend i31. When I arrived at the event, I found out that we’d have wireless internet access which was a relief because I was waiting on a couple of important emails. When the stand was quiet I updated the WiC Facebook group with photo’s and video. While I was uploading I noticed numerous messages on my own profile so I’d just like to thank everyone again for the birthday wishes :)

I’m amazed by how electronic this birthday has become because I received mulitple Facebook wall messages, emails, text messages, pings and e-cards. Technology has made communications instanous when compared to the traditional birthday card sent via snail mail.

When I was going back home, there was a bus replacement service running from Newbury to Reading and it took frikkin’ ages to get back. I spent nearly four hours traveling on the bus, train and tube. I finally arrived home after midnight and crawled into bed absolutely knackered but I was relieved the next day was going to be a day off from work.

I was in agony from tooth ache. I went to the dentist on an emergency appointment and I had to have two teeth taken out. It is and still is very painful. I haven’t eaten anything for a few days. I’m not allowed to drink any alcohol or smoke so I was unable to celebrate my birthday on Monday evening with my family :(
