you ever get so bored that time stands still? welcome to trade deadline day

today was trade deadline day in the NHL. after watching over 7 hours of coverage today, i can say that nothing happened. sure, some players got moved but all the good shit happened days before the deadline. the only team i care about, the New York Rangers, decided to take another swing at winning the Stanley Cup. they traded for Eric Staal from the Carolina Hurricanes yesterday. Eric is a captain and former Cup winner, so i really like this move. the Rangers gave up a really good prospect and two second round picks, but if they win the Cup, it won't matter. i'm really interested in seeing how Eric plays tonight at MSG. the Rangers take on the Blue Jackets. sadly, it means i have to listen to the shitty announcers from Columbus. fuck me.

mom told me to come into her room this afternoon, which was a bit odd. she wanted to show me the receipt and where my sister, myself and her will be sitting when we go see the Cleveland Indians take on the New York Yankees in July. she got some pretty good seats that look to be in the shade. that will come in handy in July. she got tickets to the Friday night game and the Saturday day game. these will be the first Yankees games ever for me. it will also be the first time i have gone to a baseball game in probably 25 years or so.

i did watch the opening of the Oscars last night. i loved how uncomfortable Chris Rock made things. mom told me about the rest of the skits and everything. the Sunday night shows got over in time for me to see the last few awards given out. i was a little surprised that Spotlight won for best picture. given my history with sexual abuse, i was happy to see it win.

Vinyl was really good last night. Girls was pretty fucking funny. Togetherness had one of the best endings i have seen in years. nothing quite like guilt and vomit. and Last Week Tonight did the absolute best job EVER of exposing Donald Trump, or should i say Donald Drumpf.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

tonight marks the return of clusterfuck Mondays. on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, Gotham and Men in Blazers.

while all that is going on, i will be watching Monday Night Raw and probably flipping over to the hockey game during commercials.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. i will be on here tomorrow sometime after my package from Amazon.com arrives and before the Dayton Flyers try to win at Richmond for the first time in 15 years or something like that. good times.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
