10-Minute Warning CXV

Hello, Diary. I’ll make this quick.

Right now I’m enjoying my 3rd Jack and Coke while having a movie night with my Younger Brother and cousins. We were on the edge of our seats while watching Olympus Has Fallen, and now we are watching the sequel London Has Fallen. I hope the sequel is as good as the 1st one.

In other news, well… I rarely talk about my love life here on The Diary, but I just updated my dating app profile and I’m testing the waters a bit. It has been a few years since I used the app, and I have been swiping left a lot. But whenever I see a profile that is worthy of a right swipe, I close the app. Damn it. Good luck to me, I guess?

And time’s up. Happy weekend!

Song of the Moment XX: Spice Girls’ “Stop”

Hi, everyone. Before I start this 200th post on The Diary (and the 20th Song of the Moment post), I need to explain something: Once again, I didn’t update The Diary on a Wednesday. Why? Because I was too sad to talk about anything. Hell, I don’t feel like finishing my post about my lowest point ever. I just wanted to do other things like running on the treadmill, lifting weights, rest for several hours, and spending time with my family… and I did all of those things and it made me feel better. To top it all off, I also watched several movies from the British action comedy Hot Fuzz (for the nth time) to the remake of the action flick Road House.

Now that I feel better, I will post something this weekend – probably on Sunday.

Anyway, what is my Song of the Moment right now? It’s my favorite Spice Girls song next to “Too Much” – “Stop”. Thank you very much, my favorite girl group, for cheering me up. Now, let me do the chorus dance in my room.

That is all.

10-Minute Warning CXI

All right. What can I share here in under 10 minutes?

I have been sick since yesterday. I have been coughing, I have an itchy throat, and I feel so weak. Thank goodness I don’t have that much work today, so I spent most of my day resting. I also drank Bioflu and an African Sea-Coconut cough mixture to heal more quickly… and it worked. As I type this, I feel much better now, though I still cough a bit. That means no cold drinks for me (still) – specifically, no Jack and Coke this Friday night. Oh, well. I hope to be 100% tomorrow or on Sunday.

After writing this post, I will watch one of my all-time favorite movies, the buddy cop action comedy Hot Fuzz. It is one of my comfort movies; I have seen it more than 5 times, and it has helped me get through my 1st noted bout with depression. Thank you, Prime Video, for having Hot Fuzz. You are the best.

Happy weekend, everyone!
