10-Minute Warning CLXXIV

All right. What can I share here in under 10 minutes?

Since Monday I have been trying to sleep and wake up early—for real, this time. I drink my nightly medicine a few hours before bedtime, I lessen my social media time before bedtime, and I try not to hit the snooze button when my phone’s and smartwatch’s alarms go off.

Is it working for me so far? Yes. Thankfully, yes, and I hope to continue this for a long time. I’m not getting any younger and I need good sleep. I quote my therapist, Dr. M, “Sleep is medicine.”

Anyway, I really should go to bed. Like I said, I’m trying to sleep and wake up early. And tomorrow is another busy day at work. (It has been super-busy for a few weeks already.)

OK. What can I share here in under 10 minutes?

Well, today at work, I ordered some spare parts, I got those parts earlier than expected, and I finished all of today’s paperwork on time. I feel so productive and happy after that. And after work, I started watching Daredevil again on Disney+ in preparation for the upcoming series Daredevil: Born Again. (The new series about The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen will be released on March 4, 2025.)

Tomorrow, I’m expecting a bit more work. I’m finishing work early though and then I’m going out to an event at night. I’m an introvert; I rarely go out during weekends and I’m not that good at socializing. But I’m expecting some socializing during the event that I’m going to, so good luck to me. Setting aside the socializing aspect, I’m pretty excited for tomorrow night.

What else? Well, that’s it. That’s for now.

So, what can I tell here under 10 minutes?

I only have a few minutes before Saturday, 12am, so I would like to share one thing: Yesterday’s birthday dinner was the best one by far, and I’m still on cloud nine. One reason for its success is that I enjoyed a lovely dinner with my entire family and a few of my closest friends. I will write more about the event probably next week.

And because of yesterday’s dinner, I’m inspired to plan out next year’s birthday (yes, this early) and try to invite more people – more friends and a few more relatives. But then again, it’s too early. For now, let me enjoy this happy feeling while I still can.

Again, happiest birthday to me, The Deranged Writer!
