it still feels like summer...

 it felt like mid-August today while i was out. i was hoping to find some baseball cards at Big Lots. of course, there was none. i guess tomorrow is supposed to be in the 90's. oh joy. then a big ass cold front is supposed to move through and then it will be fall.

The Voice was excellent last night. hopefully, it will be again tonight.

Monday Night Raw was very good last night.

the season finale of Industry was fucking great last night. i really hope there will be a season 3.

both Monday Night Football games last night were blowouts. and both home teams won like i predicted yesterday.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch and The Voice.

the Yankees start a 2 game series tonight at home against the Pirates. Aaron Judge is getting really close to having one of the best seasons a Yankee has ever had. 3 home runs away from setting the American League record for home runs in a season. and mere percentage points away from leading the American League in batting. he is light years ahead in home runs and runs batted in. no Yankee has won the triple crown since Mickey Mantle. 

i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done. i'm hoping the storms hold off until i get all that done. i hate nothing more than being out shopping when my arthritis is fucking raging.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

abraza el dolor como el amor que siempre quisiste

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

black friday...

 amazingly, much like never having a Facebook account, i have never gone out shopping on Black Friday. and honestly, i don't think i have missed anything because of it.

Thanksgiving went pretty good for the most part. i think my sister and mother got mad at each other. i get the feeling my sister just can't accept the fact that mom's health is failing as quickly as it is. as i told my mother last night, that is her problem, not yours. 

the Dayton Flyers shocked the shit out of me yesterday. they easily played their best game of the season, defeating Miami of Florida, 76-60. they will play #4 Kansas today. if they win that game, i'll be totally fucking shocked.

the New Orleans Saints got their asses handed to them last night, losing to Buffalo, 31-6. i honestly stopped watching in the second quarter. i gave the remote to my sister and just walked out of the room. it is the first time the Saints have lost 4 games in a row in 5 years.

NXT UK was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and AEW Rampage. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on Peacock.

the New York Rangers play this afternoon in Boston. hopefully, they will find a way to get a win today.

i have to take mom to her heart doctor this afternoon. of course, we have to leave a little before noon to get there on time.

my sister will be leaving sometime tonight i think. she is doing some volunteer work tomorrow.

i should be on here tomorrow before Ohio State plays that school up north.

i hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the fucking shot.

so my test results are back...

 all my tests looked pretty good, all considering. i was hoping my A1C would be lower, but at least it didn't go any higher. so, none of meds need changed. i just need to keep losing weight and hopefully getting a bit more healthier. i try to keep in mind with everyone, i have no interest in leaving a pretty corpse.

so, the group of death played today at the Euro 2020. Portugal defeated Hungary 3-0. France defeated Germany 1-0. 

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

i thought Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT, Deadliest Catch and Mr. Inbetween.

the Yankees start a series tonight up in Buffalo against the Blue Jays. i would love to see the Yankees start winning again.

i will probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.

tomorrow is my mother's birthday. of course, the gifts i ordered from Amazon aren't supposed to arrive until Thursday. fucking figures.

i should be on here after i get all the grocery shopping done.

i got the trash done already earlier this afternoon.

we did have the house open for a good portion of today. but, between the hum of the fucking cicadas and the house being 75 degrees, i closed everything up and turned on the AC. 

i went through my 2021 Topps cards last night. i knew i had some pretty good ones, i just hadn't checked out the prices for them yet. well, $200 worth of cards later, i went to bed a happy guy.

i need to go figure out what i'm making for dinner, so that's all for me kids.

until tomorrow...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the shot.

not quite as planned...

i woke up this morning from the threat of yet another cramp in my left leg. i told my mother i think maybe it's my inner child fucking with me, waking me up to go piss. joy.

i did send out 10 poems today. 5 each to The Hitchlit Review and Jotters United Lit Zine. i have never sent to either before, so i'm interested to see what the responses will be. when i get the verdicts back, i will pass them on.

i had to go back to the grocery store today. i had more pills to pick up, plus some items i forgot to get for mom yesterday. i told her i completely forgot because i didn't write them down on the list. thankfully, the rain wasn't as bad this morning as it was yesterday.

when i got home from the grocery store, the muse was calling me. for some reason, she likes to call me when she is driving. it's fucking hilarious at times, as she will provide a running commentary of all the fucking stupid drivers out there.

NJPW was pretty good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.

Pod Save America was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Austin City Limits and ROH.

i figure the rest of my day is going to be spent doing my laundry and probably watching some college football.

i will probably be on here tomorrow in the morning. tomorrow is one of those crazy ass days i have sometimes when just about everything is going on around the same time. joy.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

i'm tired of being busy...

nothing i planned today went off like i wanted. i know that's called life, but... i am happy that i haven't got too fucking frustrated, although i haven't gone to the grocery store yet.

i did write 7 poems last night. i really like most of them. i'm going to try to get a submission or two out sometime next week.

the New York Yankees got some great pitching from CC last night and plenty of offense to beat Boston 8-0. hopefully they get the series win this evening.

NXT was really good last night. i really hope they have a feud planned between Hideo Itami and Kassius Ohno. i will gladly watch that for as long as they want me to.

Lucha Underground was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight.

the USA Men's National Team plays a very important World Cup Qualifier tonight against Trinidad & Tobago. this is a MUST win game considering they have to play at Mexico on Sunday.

Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final is tonight. if Nashville is winning, i might watch some of it.

i wasn't too pleased with mom's therapist today. she didn't have her calendar with her, so she thought she was supposed to be here at 2, instead of 3. so she sat there and watched mom and i eat lunch at 2:30 when she arrived. and what really pissed me off is she is telling mom to do things differently than the other therapists have told her. if mom actually was paying for any of this, i would be fucking furious.

i did make a trip to the bank today. the one cute teller was there again and remembered me. one of these days i'll be in the right mood to have a conversation.

i also had to go to this place we used to shop at when we lived on the farm to find some birdseed. i was hoping to get a better wind chime while i was there, but none of them looked sturdy enough for the winds we get out here.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast this morning. you can check that out by going here: http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2017/6/8/wrestling-podcast-137-cody-rhodes

that's all for me today kids. i got the dishes done so we will actually have clean utensils when i cook dinner after i get home from the grocery store. wish me fucking luck going to the grocery store at this hour.

reality hits a little town in Ohio

so last night got pretty interesting around here. a cop got shot and a woman died at the Speedway gas station that is about 2 miles or so from the house. the manhunt went on for most of the night and part of the early morning. they eventually found the guy involved in this sleeping in a camper in the backyard of a house near a local church. i'm amazed at the number of people around here that don't lock their shit. apparently they still believe that that kind of shit only happens on the news, not to them. imagine their surprise. i figured correctly given this area, the people involved were white and most likely drugs were involved as well. considering they were coming from Tennessee and on their way to New York for a construction job, i definitely think weed, meth, cocaine or heroin or all of them were most likely involved. especially when the guy started crying on the morning news when he found out his girlfriend died in the crossfire. as you might imagine, there will be poems.

i did write 5 poems when i woke up this morning. i finally got the one that had been in my head for the last 3 days out. it's really fucking good. i think i'll be getting some poems ready for a submission by the end of this week.

The Voice was really good last night. i can't wait for the live shows.

Gotham was really fucking great last night.

Monday Night Raw was beyond fucking boring last night. if it wasn't for Kevin Owens, Chris Jericho and Seth Rollins, i probably wouldn't be watching the show. it really needs to completely overhaul the writing staff and take a clue from Smackdown. or, get rid of the third hour of the show or make that a showcase for other shit. and honestly, stop relying on nostalgia to carry the show.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice, Smackdown and the season finale of Atlanta.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against the Blues. hopefully they dominate them again but win this time.

i took a shower after i got everything done today (trash, feeding birds, etc.). while in the shower, i had a fart that smelled like a mix of shit and death. after i got out of the shower and started getting dressed, i rushed back to the toilet. while on the toilet, i felt like i was going to pass out. i guess that still gives me the hope that i'll die like Elvis one day. i think i got a little too much sun today and maybe the shower was too hot as well. it was damn near 80 fucking degrees outside today. i noticed the roses in the backyard by the bird feeders are blooming once again. i guess we're back to fucking summer again. being a type 2 diabetic now, i know i need to really keep an eye on my blood sugar. good times.

in better news, mom finally got an appointment to at least get her foot in the door with the guy who did my back 8 years ago. i have to take her there on Friday afternoon. that means the Friday blog will be in the morning as i have a college basketball game later that evening.

i got some great FREE music at NoiseTrade today. i'll put the link in the music section.

that's all for me today kids. take it easy and then take it again.
