You are not here. Or, the Problem with Headphones and Office Chairs.

I decided to move across the room, the head­phones fairly solidly plugged in (around a desk and a block of mar­ble) had fairly dif­fer­ent ideas. Desk accou­trements went fly­ing, head­phones remained firmly teth­ered, Josh sus­tains whiplash. It’s like a seat­belt for your head only really, really, not.

The solu­tion? Either a printer sit­u­ated upstairs so the tray out­put falls down to me (nifty but occa­sion­ally irri­tat­ing) or wire­less head­phones (and, really, I get enough Bluetooth/mobile/whatever else radi­a­tion as it is). Or just buy­ing less comfy head­phones so I don’t for­get they’re sit­u­ated on my head. The ones at present keep my ears warm. Yes, even with this much hair my ears get cold. Yes, nearly in sum­mer after heat waves. Yes, my cir­cu­la­tion is that bad, etc. Shut up and leave me to stran­gle myself with a head­phone cord.

  1. An old acquaintance says:

    HAha­ha­ha­hah­hah­ha­ha­hah

    –sorry.

    Alter­na­tivly you could plug the cable to ur head phones to a wire­less thing on ur chair that way u could the­o­ret­i­cally have the wire­less and avoid the imme­di­ate head radi­a­tion exposure.…

    Pro­vided u dont stand up. In which case you would need one of those really old style springy tele­phone cords.
