10-Minute Warning CLXXXVIII

Wow. It’s been almost a month since my last Minute Warning post. What can I share here?

Firstly, my throat has been itchy since last Friday, and it must be because I ran errands in the gloomy weather. I had to run those errands. And today, I have been drinking more warm water and ginger tea mixed with honey and citron to speed up my recovery. Normally, I don’t drink many hot beverages, but I made an exception for today because I don’t want to enter the month of October with an itchy throat or, worse, the flu. The last months of 2025 will be an almost jam-packed month for me, so I need to be at least in good condition.

And, man… the tea I have been having today is delicious. I might drink more hot tea from now on. (Maybe more sencha green tea because that’s the favorite drink of Person of Interest’s Harold Finch.)

My ten minutes aren’t up yet, and I would like to discuss plans for the remaining months of 2025. But honestly, tonight, I’d like to rest more, drink tea, and finish Season 2 of 24. I’m just here to give an update on The Diary while I have the strength to blog. My condition might get worse tomorrow. Maybe not. I need to be prepared for the worst yet hope for the best.

See you in the next post.

10-Minute Warning CLXXIII

Hello. What can I share here under 10 minutes?

Well, I watched WWE’s WrestleMania 41 later than usual. I watched Night 1 an hour after the first broadcast, while I watched Night 2 a few hours after it premiered because of urgent work. And while the event has a few low points, it was good overall and I had a nice time watching it at home.

Today my WrestleMania 41 review is almost ready, but sadly I have to move it to tomorrow because I’m recovering from a major anxiety attack this afternoon. I just hope I will be truly better by tomorrow.

That is all for now.

10-Minute Warning CXXIII

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

I was writing a new Notes to Self a while ago, but I can’t continue and I’m writing this instead. Why? I have post-vacation depression.

It has been a few days since my family and I went home from Japan, and now I have post-vacation depression. I miss Japan – the cool summer weather, the flavorful food, the train rides, all of it. My legs are also sore, but what is more apparent is the depression.

Give me a few days to recover… or maybe weeks. Either way, I will see you on Wednesday.
