headache – The Diary of The Deranged Writer

10-Minute Warning CXCVIII

All right. To quote Cody Rhodes, “What do you want to talk about?”

My Monday didn’t really go so well. I really woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I powered through work, but not without paying the price. My anxiety almost crippled me on that day, and my overthinking went into overdrive. That bad combination ended up with me having a headache later that night. I even carried that pain during my Monday ritual at Satchmi. I also had to stop replying to people for a while. If I were to message them, I’d rather be at my best… my 141 2/3 % best.

Then Tuesday came. I got the sleep that I needed, and my headache went away. But my muscles feel so sore and heavy, so I took it easy. It’s a good thing I had a minimal workload on that day. I also promised myself to wake up earlier for WWE Raw, but that’s all good because I can just watch it later. That’s the beauty of having WWE shows and PLEs on Netflix: I have the freedom to watch and pause them whenever I want.

And I’m so happy to see the main event of this week’s WWE Raw: CM Punk vs Finn Bálor for the World Heavyweight Championship. The Best in the World versus the first leader of Bullet Club (one of my favorite wrestling factions); two of my favorite wrestlers of the modern era fighting one another for the world title. I never thought I would see them battle at all, so seeing that main event was a treat, and both gave their all! Bálor may have ended up failing to win the title, but that’s all good.

I hope that at that point, Bálor starts breaking away from The Judgment Day. He deserves a great singles run and his own world title run. Plus, Punk successfully defended the title? Great decision. I want him to be champion for several more months (or a year?), then drop the title to someone deserving… like Bálor, if they were to make that match happen again.

Crap. I’m in fanboy mode, and my ten minutes are almost up. Oh well. See you in the next post.

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.

XXXV: A Health Update / The Deranged Writer’s Struggle with Steinermania II

Hello. I’m back after one week of inactivity here on The Diary.

And I quote the newly-crowned Undisputed WWE Champion, “The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes, “What do you want to talk about?” (By the way, congratulations on winning the title at Night 2 of SummerSlam 2025, Mr. Rhodes!)
