Song of the Moment LXXIX: Pieter Anø’s “Purple Rain” (A Prince Cover) (Again)

After an incredibly stressful and honestly unfulfilling day, I don’t feel like making another Minute Warning post. I just want to listen to sad piano music while drinking my favorite Jack & Coke Zero tonight. (But I can’t drink tonight because it’s not the weekend yet. I’m tempted to drink my favorite cocktail, but no. Water is fine, thank you.)

Anyway, what am I listening to as I type this? It’s Pieter Anø’s melancholic cover of “Purple Rain” (Prince’s greatest song, in my opinion). This is the second time the song has been my Song of the Moment, and I will listen to it a few more times and then go to sleep.

Will I feel better tomorrow? I don’t know. Maybe not.

See you soon, I hope.

Song of the Moment LXXVII: Killswitch Engage’s “This Fire Burns”

Tonight, I’m starting my second job. But first, I’m psyching myself up by listening to CM Punk’s first WWE theme song, “This Fire Burns” by Killswitch Engage.

Killswitch Engage’s “This Fire Burns”.

It’s clobbering time.

10-Minute Warning CLXXI

OK. Let me write this quickly.

In my last Minute Warning post, I said that I’m so stressed about the potential second job. Today, I’m so stressed about my main job. I wrote proposals, replied to emails, and endured the scorching sun to run an errand. What a work day.

After finishing work, I had to enjoy the remaining hours of the day and I celebrated today’s small victory by watching episodes 5 and 6 of Daredevil: Born Again. I was so tempted to watch the series while I was working on my proposal, but I chose to wait until after work. And the wait was worth it.

What else? Oh, I’m sorry. I’m starting to feel sleepy…
