10-Minute Warning CLXXXV

It’s around 3am, and I think I have a cold. But I’m also disappointed that August has reached 10 days, and I’ve blogged once so far. So here I am, writing for a maximum of 10 minutes.

The last time I blogged on The Diary, I said that I have been experiencing headaches. Thankfully, after blogging that entry, the headaches stopped. Hydration and Biogesic definitely helped in achieving that.

And I think I have a cold now because yesterday, I was relaxing by watching two movies, Dead Poets Society and Click, while drinking lots of ice-cold Coke Zero. One of the small changes I made in my life recently is to drink more water… except Saturdays, my cheat day. But I think I have a personal record (for the worst) because I have drunk way too many Coke Zeros tonight. Also, normally, I don’t get sick even if I stay up late every Friday or Saturday nights, but perhaps I’m paying the price now for being nocturnal during weekends despite my age?

Sometimes I forget that I’m getting older.

Anyway, I still have a few more minutes, but I just drank a Bioflu and hydrated more. I need to sleep now so I can attend Mass later today.

See you in the next post, everyone.

10-Minute Warning CLXXXIII

What can I tell here in under 10 minutes?

I have some good news: I can preserve my sole bottle of Jack Daniel’s whiskey for several weeks, and I can just buy my weekly Coke Zero (for my family, not for me). Why? Last Monday, my Mother, Father, and a cousin bought 2 4-packs of premixed Jack & Coke. That’s one Devil’s Cup per week in the next 2 months. Hell yes!

Yeah, they didn’t buy the right drink (Jack & Coke Zero), but come on… it’s still a Jack & Coke. And The Devil’s Cup will have more bite in the next several weeks. That’s still a win for me!

What else? Well, every year, I binge-watch my favorite series of all time, the sci-fi crime thriller/drama Person of Interest, and I have been on another POI marathon since July 12. Today I just finished an episode from Season 2, “C.O.D.”. I might watch another episode before I go out tonight.

And maybe I should start a new blog series where I discuss each Person of Interest episode?

Anyway, my 10 minutes are up. See you in the next 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.
