10-Minute Warning CXVII

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

Nothing much. While working on billings today, I was thinking: Should I buy a new phone? Specifically, should I buy a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra or a S24 Ultra?

Despite a minor screen problem, my current phone – a Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G – still works well and it has a great camera for a mid-range phone. But I have been using said phone for 3 years, and I think it’s time for a change? Also, the S23 Ultra and S24 Ultra are faster, their screens are bigger, they have better camera specs, and their Galaxy AI seems cool.

Damn it. I have to decide before the Japan trip… or maybe later. Why am I overthinking this? God help me.

And that’s it. That’s all I can say.

Song of the Moment VIII: Matchbox Twenty’s “Unwell”

Today was an OK day for me. I went to the ENT to have my ears checked and cleaned. (I can hear better now; it’s like I have Daredevil’s heightened hearing now.) I went to pay my monthly bills. I had lunch and wrote in my journal at my favorite spot Satchmi. I checked the new Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra at a Samsung store. I had some afternoon drinks with my Mother and cousins. Then we went home and I quickly worked on a document for next week.

But tonight, I started remembering that one thing that broke my heart, and now I’m mentally unwell. Let me quote that Matchbox Twenty classic.

But I’m not crazy, I’m just a little unwell
I know, right now you can’t tell
But stay a while and maybe then you’ll see
A different side of me

I’m not crazy, I’m just a little impaired
I know, right now you don’t care
But soon enough you’re gonna think of me
And how I used to be

Now let me dwell in the darkness once again.
