Good morning to you all

Good morning beautiful people. Another week, another Monday:)

It’s 12:56 pm and I’m bored to my core. I have two large tasks to finish but I cannot seem to get either done. I’m at the new office and all I really want is to look outside the windows because, to be honest, the view is appealing. It’s not exactly a sea or mountain view, but our office is on the 13th floor and the view is the architecturally unsynchronized buildings of Beirut, then the mountains. To our right, there’s the Beirut river, which is funny to say because it is not exactly a river – more of a lengthy hole with almost dried and polluted water.

It’s a nice office, I like it. there isn’t exactly much privacy as it’s the modern open space, but I frankly do not mind, it means more social and I like that. It’s also pretty close to my house – only an 8 minutes drive, though it took me 40 minutes this morning to reach because I skipped the exit and drove all the way down to the Port. I also walked back home last Thursday because the weather was beautifully cold for May and it took me around an hour or so. I’m just hoping it actually is an 8 minutes drive for future endeavors.

I just ate a meat skewer sandwich and I feel more energized so I might as well go back to work and seize some concentration cells.

Eating my kaak el eid, I just booked myself a massage session for Thursday, and I am so excited. I just cannot wait until someone loosens my unbearable body knots. I need to loosen up, among other things.

What else? Well, my week is pretty jammed. From movie nights, to coffee talks, to organ recitals, to a massage, it’s a usual nour-busy week. I do intend on having my after-work schedule more me-time, meaning I DO want to read and go back to the gym, but maybe not the very next week after the Ramadan madness.

I’m currently listening to this chill remix of Shkoon, and I think I am kind of binge eating the kaak. I’ll just make myself a cup of coffee and get back to work, then therapy, then more work with friends after.

Mental health check: well, I could be more stable. My insecurities and attachment tantrums are at their peak lately, and my mixed feelings and exploitative behaviors will for sure come back at me, biting me in the butt. But let’s deal with that at a later time.

How about you? What have you been up to lately? Any exciting things coming your way? Any joys? Fears? I’m here, always, ready to talk, just one cup of coffee away.
