Minute Warnings – Page 17 – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

10-Minute Warning CLIV

This post is a part of 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2024).

So, what can I tell under 10 minutes?

Firstly, I really, really, really don’t want to write another Minute Warning post today because I already wrote one yesterday. But I can’t write a longer post because I have been sneezing all day due to allergies, and I almost ran out of tissues. If I had more than 1 task for work today, I would be annoyed as hell.

7 days before my birthday, and I feel sick? I hate this. I hope to be well tomorrow, make a header image for this post, and then deal with the birthday dinner reservation. I should have done the latter way earlier than tomorrow.

And time’s up.

10-Minute Warning CLIII

For my 6th entry of 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2024), I want to share that I’m feeling the birthday blues again.

Why do I have the birthday blues today? Maybe it’s because today I did not have enough sleep, I woke up earlier than usual for work, and I had difficulty napping in the afternoon. Maybe it’s because I’m disappointed at a flaw in my recent purchase (that I only found just now, and I may or may not talk about it later). Maybe it’s because I still have not booked a table yet for my birthday dinner. Or maybe it’s all of the above.

Anyway, I hope to turn things around before or on my birthday, December 5. But for now, I’m dwelling in the dark again.

10-Minute Warning CLII

Crap. I almost forgot to blog today. Good thing it’s still at 11:00pm. And this post is the 4th entry of the blog series 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2024 edition).

I had another productive day at work today. I finished the proposals quickly and ordered a few items a few hours before closing. I’m supposed to run an errand, but I can do that tomorrow and then I have my weekly affogato at my favorite spot.

After work, I had to watch the Filipino romantic drama film Hello, Love, Goodbye so I don’t feel lost while watching its sequel Hello, Love, Again with my Mother, Younger Brother, and cousins tonight… and then movie night was postponed because of work. Oh, well. At least I’m still prepared for the sequel. Maybe we will watch it next week.

Wait a minute. The Deranged Writer is into romantic dramas? Not really. But my loved ones wanted to watch one, so I had to join them. And it’s refreshing to watch something I don’t usually watch.

Anyway, to end the day, I walked and jogged at my preferred jogging path. I’m glad I got some exercise tonight, and I will do that again soon.

And time’s up.
