30-Minute Warning XXV

So, what can I share here under 30 minutes after not blogging last Wednesday and yesterday?

Well, I apologize for the lack of updates recently because I don’t feel like following my blogging schedule this week. I have been following said schedule for a long time, and I think I deserve to break the rules and take a break once in a while. I’m no writing machine; I’m only human. But since I still want to blog 3 times a week, I’m blogging today… on a Saturday.

Anyway, what happened while I was not writing here on The Diary? I’m getting a new custom Funko Pop made by the amazingly talented Gino Roberto. I love the 1st version of my custom Pop, and I’m confident he will kill it on the 2nd version! I made a downpayment yesterday and will have it delivered a few days before the Japan trip. I’m so stoked!

As for what happened today? Well, I don’t have anything to work on today, so I dropped by the condominium to give my Elder Brother and Youngest Brother their clothes, and then I watched 2 episodes of X-Men ’97. I regret not watching the animated series sooner, but at least I have a series to binge-watch this weekend. And thank you, Elder Brother, for giving me some Magnum Cookies & Cream while watching the series.

After binge-watching, I dropped by Satchmi and had my weekly dose of affogato. SM Megamall has a 5-day sale, so I’m surprised that I enjoyed my favorite coffee and ice cream combo at my favorite spot in my favorite cafe. Nice. And even though there was a mall-wide sale, I didn’t buy anything – not even the Samsung Galaxy S24+ or S24 Ultra I wanted. I might buy either before the end of May, but still…

Anyway, I should watch episode 3 of X-Men ’97 while I drink a cold glass of Jack and Coke. It’s finally the weekend!

10-Minute Warning LXIX

So, this is the 69th Minute Warning post. Nice.

Moving on, what happened in my life today? Well, I spent my afternoon planning my birthday theme and venue. Again. I’m supposed to start booking on October 5, but even now, I’m not sure whether I go for a karaoke costume party, a coffee and chill party, or a game night. I’m sure though that my party will happen at night.

Crap. Planning a birthday that is not a simple dinner is harder than I thought. Maybe I should just do another dinner party. (I think I said that before in a previous post.) But anyway, I should decide on the theme, contact all possible venues, and then invite my family and friends on or before November 5.

And… that’s it. That’s about it.

10-Minute Warning XXXIV

Warning: Graphic detail about shit/bowel/poop.

A health update: In the last post, I mentioned that my stomach is aching a bit. Last Tuesday, my stomach ache got worse and I have been violently shitting wet poop more than 20 times already. I’m not sure who is to blame for it, but I think the glassful iced latte that I had last Monday afternoon did it. I will never have an iced latte at that cafe ever again.

Today, I told my family that I’m still unwell. Mother told me to drink lots of Gatorade, and I did. And as I type this, I feel relieved because I have not pooped wet poop in an hour. I hope this is the start of my full recovery.
