Notes to Self – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

Notes to Self XII

For the 1st time since I started The Diary, I did not blog on a Monday. Why? I walked and jogged on Track 30th and, well, I took a break from writing. And that’s what I want to share in my 12th Notes to Self.

For my new readers of The Diary, Notes to Self is where I quote something note-worthy from any media or someone I know. In this 12th edition of Notes to Self though, this is a literal note to self.

Notes to Self XI

Hi! I’m The Deranged Writer and welcome to the 11th edition of Notes to Self – where I quote something important from any form of media or someone I know in real life.

In this edition, I’m quoting something an online friend told me 13 years ago.

Notes to Self X

Today, the day before my 33rd birthday, I’m starting to feel more excited. Gone are the days when I got worried about party venues and ruined plans because now everything is all set. I’m looking forward to having a simple Italian dinner party with my family and a few of my closest friends.

Other than my excitement for my birthday party, what happened today? I started working on a few November billings and then capped off the day with a viewing of Doctor Strange with my Father. While we were watching, I was reminded of a quote from The Ancient One (played by Tilda Swinton) bout having inner demons.

This is my 10th Notes to Self.

Spoiler warning if you have not seen Doctor Strange.
