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 CXIII

So, what can I tell here under 10 minutes?

Well, sad news: The lowest point of my life happened 5 years ago today, March 25. I’m supposed to reminisce that day through a blog post, but… I can’t finish it today. My mind and heart can’t finish the story today. I’m not even sure if I can tell the story this Wednesday or Friday, but I’m sure there will be a trigger warning before the post.

And some good news: There was reason for me to be happy yesterday, March 24, because it was the 59th birthday of my all-time favorite professional wrestler, Mark Calaway AKA The Undertaker. Happiest birthday, Taker! I hope you had a blast!

Song of the Moment XIX: Charlie Burg’s “I Don’t Wanna Be Okay Without You”

After my errands today and capping off the work week with an ice-cold Jack and Coke, now I’m tired and in a mellow mood, and I would like to simply quote Charlie Burg.

But I only think of you
Will we be together soon?
I’m thrown to the wayside
You’re planted in my mind
But I don’t wanna be okay without you
