10-Minute Warning CXXXVII

I feel so lazy updating my blog tonight, but I have to reach the 13-14 post goal before August ends. 1 more post tomorrow and I will reach 13. I need to push myself, man.

Anyway, what do I want to talk about in under 10 minutes? Well, I needed to wake up early and order an urgently needed part at work. After that and a little editing, my work was done, and then I ran a few errands with my cousins.

After running errands, I started my weekend by watching again a few episodes of Person of Interest. I’m currently on the 5th and final season, and I’m excited and sad about the end of binge-watching my favorite series of all time. That’s all right though because I can just re-watch it for the nth time or watch a different favorite series.

As I’m typing this, I just finished watching the kickoff show for WWE’s Bash in Berlin while drinking a refreshing Jack and Coke Zero. I can’t wait to see the next WWE PLE (Premium Live Event) tomorrow.

Happy weekend, everyone!

Song of the Moment XLIV: Ghost’s “If You Have Ghosts” (A Roky Erickson Cover)

After my recent mental health issues, I totally need a distraction. And for some strange reason, I remember Ghost’s cover of a Roky Erickson song, “If You Have Ghosts”. It’s the 1st song from Ghost’s 1st EP If You Have Ghost, released in 2013. And now I’m listening to it repeatedly as I type this post.

1 reason Ghost (a Swedish heavy metal/hard rock band) became one of my top 10 favorite bands of all time is their cover of “If You Have Ghost”. Their take on a psychedelic rock song is so different compared to the original, and I love it. When I listen to the song, I feel like I have everything.

If you have ghosts
You have everything

Another thing I love about Ghost is their acoustic performance of the song for HardDrive Radio’s YouTube channel – a video I always rewatch. I’m amazed at Papa Emeritus III’s vocal power and the Nameless Ghouls’ acoustic guitar skills in the video (especially at 1:36). Check out the video below.

And to close this post, who’s the producer of Ghost’s entire EP If You Have Ghost? My hero, Dave Grohl. Nice. No wonder I love the EP and Ghost themselves.

10-Minute Warning CXXXVI

So, what can I share here under 10 minutes?

Well, like my post last Monday, I’m supposed to make a longer post today. This time though, the reason for not making a longer post is laziness. I just want to relax after doing my daily routine and working on a few billings today.

But I can’t relax for long. I just made my 9th post for this August, and I’m supposed to make 13 to 14 posts per month. So I will update The Diary for 6 days straight starting today to this Saturday, August 31. Wish me luck on that one.

Anyway, what are my plans for tonight? I might watch Gone Girl or go visit my favorite cafe Satchmi… or maybe watch Deadpool & Wolverine for the 5th time? I don’t know. We’ll see.

And that’s it for now.
