XXI: A Rant About Coffee Choices & Other Happenings Today

Originally, this is just a simple post about what happened today. But first, I need to get things off my chest.

Buckle up because this is going to be a long post.

10-Minute Warning CLXV

All right. I’m supposed to write a longer post, but I opened my WordPress at 11:40pm. What can I share under 10 minutes?

Well, I really, really had a long day. I woke up earlier as I promised this week, but my sleep was not good, so I felt groggy. But I forced myself to do my morning rituals, fueled myself with extra-strong coffee, then ran today’s errands… and there were a lot of errands. My smartwatch is so happy that I got to walk 6,000 steps before lunchtime, and I honestly didn’t feel tired until I ran my last errand: having a watch fixed. I waited on the bench for several minutes, and I almost fell asleep. Looks like my extra-strong coffee is not strong enough.

With the caffeine out of my system already, I walked to the nearest Army Navy and ordered my favorite chicken burrito with extra orange cheese and a Coke Zero as my beverage. Once again, my heart and tummy are happy. (And this is why I’m fat.) After that, I enjoyed a slower walk around the area.

Crap. My 10 minutes is almost up. That’s it for now. Happy weekend, everyone.

10-Minute Warning CLXII

All right. What can I write here under 10 minutes?

It was a pretty dull day, especially at work. Since I didn’t have any paperwork today, I ran an errand and that was it. And since I was done early, I dropped by my favorite cafe and had my favorite affogato. After an hour though, I went home early—like before rush hour. I don’t feel like staying at the mall until closing time today.

What else? Well, that’s it. Besides having my favorite caffeinated drink, it was a pretty dull day.
