10-Minute Warning CLIII

For my 6th entry of 14 Days of The Deranged Writer (2024), I want to share that I’m feeling the birthday blues again.

Why do I have the birthday blues today? Maybe it’s because today I did not have enough sleep, I woke up earlier than usual for work, and I had difficulty napping in the afternoon. Maybe it’s because I’m disappointed at a flaw in my recent purchase (that I only found just now, and I may or may not talk about it later). Maybe it’s because I still have not booked a table yet for my birthday dinner. Or maybe it’s all of the above.

Anyway, I hope to turn things around before or on my birthday, December 5. But for now, I’m dwelling in the dark again.

Song of the Moment XLI: Teri DeSario’s “Fallin'”

One of the things I loved to do as a child was listen to the radio before going to sleep. One of the songs that really stuck with me was “Fallin'” by Teri DeSario, a song that deals with falling in love and having second thoughts about it.

Of course, when I heard “Fallin'” as a kid, I had no clue what love was. I don’t even have a crush at school at that time. But Ms. DeSario’s soft singing and the perfectly mellow instrumentals stuck in my mind and heart and I didn’t need to fall in love to appreciate the song. And when I did fall in love a few times, I went back to listening to “Fallin'”, making the song more relevant in my life than ever.

But since Thursday, I have been listening to Teri DeSario’s “Fallin” for a different reason. And that’s…

A lyric video of Teri DeSario’s “Fallin'”.

10-Minute Warning CXVIII

I will make this quick.

I’m supposed to make a longer post tonight, but my head hurts so much. I ate less during the day, so I thought a heavy meal tonight will cure my headache… but nope. My headache is still there. I need to sleep now.

And this coming week, I will follow my blogging schedule again (Monday, Wednesday, Friday). See you tomorrow!
