Breakfast Babble is ED’s own little space on the interwebs where we gather to discuss ideas and get pumped up (or not) for the day. We judge things, too. Sometimes. Always. Whatever, call it catharsis and join in, people.
There was a time when Sundays felt like lazy, luxurious naps in the middle of life, now they feel like therapy sessions I didn’t book but desperately need. By 10 am, I’m already bargaining with the universe: If I manage to clean my room, I deserve a peaceful week.
By noon, I’ve spiralled because I haven’t even made my bed, and somehow that means my life is falling apart.
It’s funny how one day can hijack the mood of an entire week. If Sunday goes right, a good breakfast, no guilt naps, maybe a clean kitchen, I feel invincible. I text people back, make plans, and even think about learning Excel.
But if Sunday stumbles, even slightly, I’m doomed. One burnt toast? Bad omen. Internet glitch while streaming? Clearly a sign that Mercury is in a particularly bad mood.
Sundays are no longer rest days; they’re mood auditions for the week ahead. Every minor inconvenience becomes an omen for impending chaos.
My shampoo running out feels like a metaphor for emotional depletion. Is the Uber driver cancelling? Proof that the universe is testing my patience (and failing me spectacularly).
And somehow, everyone’s collectively cranky. Maybe it’s the Sunday scaries, maybe it’s the caffeine crash, maybe it’s the silent dread of Monday morning productivity.

We’ve become experts at transferring existential frustration onto the smallest things, like the Wi-Fi lag or the milk running out. It’s not even about the problem anymore; it’s about having something to blame.
Because the truth is, we’re all emotionally weather-sensitive now. Our mood forecasts are fragile. We check them through WhatsApp notifications, delayed Amazon deliveries, and how clean our mirrors look at sunset. If any of that feels “off”, the whole week’s vibe gets cursed.
By 8 pm on Sunday, I’m sitting in existential stillness, trying to meditate, but end up making mental PowerPoints about how my life is chaos. By 9 pm, I’ve convinced myself that the only way to fix next week is to change my entire personality.
So yes, Sundays secretly decide how my week goes. Not because they’re magical or meaningful, but because they remind me how absurdly fragile I’ve become. One bad coffee, one late email, one wrong thought, and there I am, blaming the cosmos for my burnt toast.
