i didn't take a weed gummy yesterday. amazingly, i did sleep good, a few times actually. i am hoping it will be possible for me to get a little more sleep, even without the help of drugs. i still expect that most of my sleeping will come when i die.
the Yankees lost yesterday at home to Tampa Bay, 9-1. i really hope they do better this afternoon.
i watched some soccer, golf and whatever else that let me get some sleep.

i'm sure i will watch some of the Brickyard 400 today.
a big thank you to everyone that has checked out my latest published poem:
when i got the alert (maybe 30 of them total) that Sinead O'Connor was dead. a flood of memories hit me. i remember when i first saw her video for Nothing Compares 2 U and immediately thought of my girlfriend at the time, whom i am still friends with to this day. growing up an artsy kid who kind of hid that part of his life at times because of the love of sports, etc., Sinead's music always had a place in my soul. this news today really hit me much harder than i thought it would. may you finally be at peace.
Manchester United U-21 team lost to Wrexham last night, 3-1. i feel really bad for Paul Mullin. he got a punctured lung last night from a boneheaded challenge from United's goalie. United's first team plays tonight in Houston against Real Madrid.
the Yankees lost to the Mets last night, 9-3. i doubt i watch much of the game tonight.
i did catch some of the Leagues Cup last night.
NXT was good last night.
Dark Side of the Ring was about Bam Bam Bigelow last night. he was one of my all-time favorites.
i did watch Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge when i got home from the grocery store today. it was crazy as usual.

i'm waiting to get the second text from the eye doctor so i can get my new glasses and sunglasses. i got the first one today. i really don't want to make two trips in this heat. the heat index today was over 100.
i have absolutely no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

so, i'm getting to this much later than i was hoping to, but not because of anything other than my bad back. i took a shower late last night, hoping i could get the thing looser so i could sleep in my bed for a change. needless to say, that didn't happen. so, i slept in the massage chair again. i got something close to 4 hours. that will have to do.
the Yankees won last night over the Royals, 11-5. basically it was the Aaron Judge show. he took away a home run in right field and hit two of his own. that gives him 41 home runs. only he and Babe Ruth have hit 40 or more home runs for the Yankees before August.
Red Scare won last night in the TBT to advance to the semifinals later today. 2 wins away from a million dollars.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.
AEW Rampage was really good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching WWE SummerSlam for most of the evening.
i did watch a little of the Manchester United game this morning. they lost 1-0 in Norway to Atletico Madrid. i'm not putting much into this as it was a friendly, but the season does start in a week or so.
i'm sure i will watch some MLS games today as well.
with any luck, i'll actually get a chance to do some writing today. hopefully.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

so, i got to bed sometime around 4 this morning. i was finally falling asleep in my massage chair around 5 when i heard something fall in the house. i immediately put my glasses on and started lowering my chair to see what the fuck was up. i turned on the hall light and i saw my mother, flat on her back, in the doorway to her bedroom. i rushed to her and she was still alive, at least. she was sleepwalking, the best term i can think of at the moment, and of course, wasn't near her rollator at all. i had to more or less wake her up into reality, which it took her a good 20 minutes to figure out. i eventually got her back into bed. it didn't appear to me that she was bleeding anywhere or had a concussion, amazingly. i was hoping to go back to sleep, but of course, that didn't happen. eventually, i did get a good nap later in the morning. of course, mom told me when i woke up that she could have got a doctor's appointment at noon, but she didn't want to wake me up. i didn't say anything, but i really wish she would have woke me up. i thanked her for the preview of her death that she is constantly giving me more often these days. that's 3 falls in the last 3 weeks, and 8 falls in the last 3 months. i'm really hoping she can find a neurologist that her insurance accepts so we can figure out what truly is going on. i don't want to have a situation where she dies needlessly and then an autopsy shows it was something that was fucking treatable. so yeah, that has been most of my today. good times.
the Yankees only got two hits last night. thankfully, one of those was a walk off home run from Aaron Judge to win over the Royals, 1-0. that is his 3rd walk off home run this season, tying the team record by Mickey Mantle in 1959.
Vice News Tonight had two great shows this week.
Big Brother was really good last night. i loved the shocked look on Ameerah's face when she was evicted. even better was all the clueless women in the house that looked stunned. Monte is the new HOH.
NJPW was great last night.
both episodes of The Captain last night certainly brought back the memories.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Real Time with Bill Maher.
the Red Scare play tonight in the quarterfinals of the TBT. they will get the last spot in the semifinals if they win.
i should be on here in the morning tomorrow, before the Yankees have Old Timer's Day.
so, the rain woke me up at 7 this morning. considering i went to bed a little after 3 AM, i figured i might as well just get going with my day. the laundry i wanted to do for mom on the weekend she finally let me do today. joy. and between my bad back and the arthritis, i really can't wait to drink myself to death one day. good times.
the Yankees lost last night to the Mets, 3-2. thankfully, they made a trade after the game was over that should provide a little spark to the team.
the Red Scare won again last night in the TBT. they are 3 wins away from a million dollars. this is the farthest they have ever gone in this tournament.
AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.
Big Brother was really good last night. i think i'm really going to enjoy The Leftovers alliance and the show tonight should be excellent. i always love a good blindside.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Big Brother, two episodes of The Captain and NJPW. i watched NXT UK earlier today. it was excellent.

it rained this morning and my arthritis was raging enough that i just gave in and slept. i think i got something close to 5 hours of sleep in my massage chair. i really wish i could sleep in my bed but my back isn't anywhere close to being good enough for that to happen. i don't even bother to try anymore. i stretch out in bed and then go to sleep in my chair. rinse and repeat.
the Yankees lost last night, 6-3, to the Mets. hopefully, they will get a split tonight.
the Red Scare won last night to advance to the regional final tonight in the TBT. they will have to beat the top seed in the region to move on tonight.
NXT was great last night.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. i'm really hoping SummerSlam this Saturday is going to be good.

the Yankees play at the Mets tonight. two game subway series. hopefully, the Yankees will find a way to win.
the Red Scare play tonight in the TBT. they are playing the team that eliminated them two years ago i believe, so that should be interesting.
i have no damn clue what i am doing for dinner tonight. i need to pick up the trash and get that out. i did get most of mom's laundry done yesterday. of course, i wasn't thrilled making her bed at 1:30 in the morning. joy.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, my mother decided to sleep all of yesterday. i mean like over 12 fucking hours in bed, easily. so, i never did get her laundry done or help her take a shower, etc. i have had to do that today, along with all the other shit i had planned for today. and of course, the poems i wanted to record to put out some more SoundCloud recordings had to get pushed back to whenever the fuck i have a spare 30 minutes anytime soon. i told her yesterday i feel like her 24 hour concierge. she didn't like that comment. i told her then, don't ask me to get you water at 3:30 in the morning again then. she then understood what i was talking about.
the Yankees won yesterday at Baltimore, 6-0. they are now 66-31 on the season. they start a series at the Mets tomorrow night.

i did listen to episode 405 of Naotsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:
there seems to be something that happens to me every couple of years. i'll meet someone that will seem amazing to me. we'll talk, get to know each other better, etc. etc. i'll share some links to my poetry and they will seem interested. and then the second that i think this could be legit or something more, they will vanish. into thin fucking air, like they never existed in the first place. now, what really sucks is when they ask you for help in getting published and you actually believe they are being honest. and of course, this last one was a dream woman. nearly every fucking thing i wish for in a woman and two days after really "connecting" on a genuine and honest level, gone...this is the kind of shit from the universe that makes me believe i will die old and alone. either that, or i am still being punished for some fucking thing i apparently have done. joy.
i got my laundry done and went to bed at 4:45 this morning. i was up at 7 to piss and then finally made it out of my massage chair at 9:15. i figure, i got my 4 hours, time to go.
the Yankees lost last night in Baltimore, 6-3. they couldn't get a hit with runners in scoring position to save their lives last night. hopefully, they will win this afternoon.
i did watch a few MLS games last night.

the TBT tournament gets the games at UD Arena going today. i know the Red Scare (mostly made up of Dayton alums) play this afternoon. i will hopefully be able to find that game somewhere.
i need to do mom's laundry at some point today and hopefully get a shower in as well.
it is supposed to storm here today. so, i know my arthritis will be fucking raging later on. good times.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
today is the birthday of my dead father. i never have liked this day. probably never will. some scars just run deeper than others i guess.
yesterday was one of those days where hardly fucking anything went my way.
the only thing that did was in the Gold Cup. Canada defeated Costa Rica, 2-0. the USA defeated Jamaica, 1-0. i love what Matthew Hoppe brings to this team. he has a certain "fuck you" to him when he's out there that i wish more of the players had. so, now on July 29th, the USA will play Qatar and Mexico plays Canada. winners will face each other in the final on August 1st.
the Yankees were winning yesterday, 4-0 and Domingo German was throwing a no-hitter. he gave up a double in the 8th inning. no big deal. they pulled him from the game and the bullpen absolutely shit the bed. the Red Sox scored 5 runs in the bottom of the 8th and won the game, 5-4. i swear, this season can't fucking end fast enough.
the Red Scare forgot to play good defense yesterday and some key players couldn't hit the fucking ocean when they were shooting. they lost to Category 5, 76-69.
Big Brother was good last night. i truly hope Brent gets evicted this week.
The White Lotus was very good last night.
Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.
Power Book III: Raising Kanan was excellent last night.

i imagine i might watch some of the Olympics late tonight. it probably all depends on what is live at that time.
i did get my order from Carnival Baseball today. 10 baseball cards of hall of famers. i was hoping for some older cards, but i can't complain with what i got. the best cards in the two packs were a 1990 Topps Frank Thomas rookie card and a 1990 Topps Ken Griffey Jr.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

the Yankees scored 4 runs in the 8th to shock the Red Sox and most of us Yankee fans as well, to win yesterday, 4-3. hopefully, they can get the split of the series this afternoon.
Tig Notaro: Drawn was fucking hilarious last night.
ROH was good last night.
Manchester United lost that friendly against QPR yesterday, 4-2.
