Happy St. Patrick's Day...

 Happy St. Patrick's Day...

Manchester United won yesterday at Leicester, 3-0. other than another fucking injury to another defender, it was a good victory.

the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Edmonton, 3-1.

The Americas was very good last night.

The White Lotus was fucking great last night.

The Righteous Gemstones was great last night.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan was very good last night.

Yellowjackets was fucking crazy last night.

i did fill out some brackets for the NCAA tournament last night.  i have Florida winning for the men and UCLA winning for the women. the Dayton Flyers will be playing in the NIT yet again.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Voice. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw on Netflix this afternoon as it will come on at 3 PM. i love that Netflix will be airing the episodes from Europe live in the USA.

the weather took a turn to the cold last night. that might be why i slept a little better. i woke up this morning and mom was in her massage chair sleeping. by the time i got done with breakfast, she was back in her bed. i think the health problems she has been having here recently have really gotten to her. the projectile vomiting yesterday had some end of life shit attached to it. good times.

the First Four games start tomorrow at UD Arena. if i had those tickets still, i would make a killing selling them with North Carolina, Xavier and Texas coming.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

Happy St. Patrick's Day

 

i hope everyone is having a great St. Patrick's Day. today has been completely fucking draining for me, and i love it. so, you can imagine what happened this morning.

Manchester United defeated Liverpool, 4-3 in extra time to advance to the semifinals of the FA Cup. they will play Coventry in the semis. the other semifinal will be Manchester City against Chelsea. this game was completely fucking nuts. United went up 1-0 but was losing 2-1 at halftime. they scored in the 87th minute to make it 2-2. Rashford had incredible miss that would have won the game in regulation. Liverpool scored in the first half of extra time to go up 3-2. Rashford scored in the 112th minute to tie it at 3. then, Amad Diallo scored at the death to make it 4-3. this is the United team i have been dying to see all season. they played with heart, passion, determination, everything they have lacked all damn season. an instant fucking classic.

the New York Rangers have had a great weekend, minus another damn injury. they won yesterday at Pittsburgh, 7-4. and then today, the defeated the Islanders at home, 5-2.

AEW Collision was good last night.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Regime, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Last Week Tonight.

i will be watching the NCAA selection show tonight to see if the Dayton Flyers actually made it in for the first time in years. i did see Duquesne win the A10 tournament earlier today, defeating VCU. Duquesne will be in the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1977.

i will be on here in the afternoon tomorrow, probably after the Orkin guy leaves. he believes there is a squirrel in our attic. 

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

i believe i was in the ice cream aisle...

 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.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite and the Big Brother 25th Anniversary special.

the USWNT takes on the Netherlands tonight in the Women's World Cup.

the Red Scare plays tonight in the TBT. i believe that will be on ESPN+.

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.

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

i did write one poem today while mom was getting her injection for her back. 

after she got done there, we went to Perkins for lunch.

i'm hoping it will warm up this weekend, but i doubt it. i guess i'll just be inside watching basketball all weekend.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i need to go to Rite Aid at some point to pick up a prescription. 

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

the kind of day i'd like to drink myself to death...

 

now, i'll get to the good news after i climb down from the cross.

so, i made it to the doctor's office on time. my blood pressure was good. my weight was down. and for some fucking reason, my A1C was up. again. they believe it could be stress related. i can't imagine what fucking stress i have in my life. so, now i get to start trulicity. joy. well, i guess i should have known if i was going to live to 46, i would be injecting myself with something by now. of course, i didn't get to see the person i was supposed to see today. so, i didn't get to talk about my arthritis that is getting worse or the pinched nerve in my neck. as i told my mother, i have rode the waves of pain for so fucking long now, i might as well be a damn professional. so, on the way home from the doctor's office, i nearly got hit twice by drivers not paying fucking attention. i swear, one of these days, i'm just going to swerve right into the fuckers and see what happens next. i stopped at Big Lots on the way home. i got some basketball and football cards. $50 worth of packs. there was close to $100 worth of cards in them. that works for me.

the Dayton Flyers won last night in Toledo, 74-55. that was their first win in the NIT since 2010. they will play Vanderbilt in Nashville on Sunday afternoon in the next round.

i did watch Wright State win over Bryant last night, 93-82. that was their first win ever in the tournament. in the second game Notre Dame defeated Rutgers 89-87 in 2OT.

as for today, there have been a few upsets already. 

AEW last night was excellent.

The Masked Singer was crazy last night.

Snowfall was fucking great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and Dicktown. i did watch NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock. it was really good.

i'm sure i will watch plenty of college basketball tonight.

the New York Rangers play at home tonight against the Islanders. i really hope the Rangers get a win tonight.

i have to take mom to physical therapy tomorrow afternoon. i know at some point, i will have to swing by Rite Aid to pick up some pills and some shots. so, i should be on here, well fuck, if i get a wild hair up my ass tomorrow morning, i'll try to get the blog done then. if not, tomorrow afternoon, most likely in the rain. good times.

enjoy the drinks and green whatever. be safe and avoid a trip to jail.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck Putin.

fuck the police.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

not enough time...

 my mother used to call it being busier than 9 cats covering up shit in a windstorm. it happens every fucking Wednesday. i have way too much to do, not enough time to even think of doing it all, doing it anyway, fucking up my back, not getting any sleep and taking years (hopefully) off of my life.

the grocery stores today were crazy. for some fucking reason, Kroger is changing their store around yet again. eventually, i'll get sick of this shit and shop somewhere else. i nearly got everything on the damn scroll. i didn't find any Crystal Light at Kroger. so, the usual Thursday get what you forgot day of shopping will commence once again. i'll probably go to Meijer.

i did get some baseball cards today and some basketball cards. the basketball cards were $7 for a pack. a bit steep but they are Prizm cards, so each card is worth around $2 or more. so, $7 for 15 cards isn't too bad. the baseball cards were a Fairfield box. i found a 1990 Fleer Larry Walker rookie card in it, so i'm pretty fucking happy with that. all in all, i spent $12 and there was around $60 worth of cards. sounds good to me.

The Voice was good last night.

NXT was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Masked Singer, Alter Ego and American Horror Story: Double Feature.

the USMNT takes on Costa Rica tonight in Columbus. since they fucked up in Panama, tonight basically becomes a MUST win game.

the New York Rangers start their season tonight in Washington. i really hope they win tonight, get a little revenge on Tom Wilson, and come back home ready for the home opener tomorrow night against Dallas.

i will hopefully get the shopping done early tomorrow and be on here in the afternoon.

the first of the Christmas gifts i ordered for my mother and sister arrived today. i will hopefully have 9 of the 10 items here by next Monday. the 10th item is coming from Asia, so i know there is a more than likely chance it won't get here in time for Christmas. 

that's all for me kids. i really need to ice my back before the games tonight and get started on dinner.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

not exactly the day i want to be sick on...

but given that the second coming of the plague has most everything closed and people stuck inside...

i did have to go out today and get some shit. i needed some Sudafed and of course the pharmacy at Kroger was all out of the strong shit. figures. i got most of everything mom had on the grocery list. and i kept it under $100.

i did send out 11 poems today; 6 to Record Magazine and 5 to Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from those places i will pass along the verdicts.

i guess i should say thank you to Tom Brady for breaking the internet this morning.

the New Orleans Saints did get Drew Brees signed today. hopefully in these next 2 years a Super Bowl win will be coming to Bourbon Street.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

The Voice last night was good.

The Plot Against America was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight.

i did record Black Panther last night, so i might end up watching that tonight.

i need to get the trash picked up, so that's all for me kids.

i'm draining snot like there's no tomorrow, so i'm coughing like i started smoking 2 cartons a day again.

good times.

i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

have a good one. stay healthy.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

spent last night with the third eye open...

i didn't get to bed until 6 this morning. as much as i wanted to be celebrating the Yankees finally winning another division title, last night was more of a poetic depth plunge into my darkness. i find as a poet i often have to hang out with my demons to gain a better understanding of how to effectively use them in this fucking world. now, what usually happens is i will have a poetry dump here in the next couple days where 10 or 15 poems will appear out of nowhere. and with the doctor visits coming up, i should have the time.

the New York Yankees won last night over the Angels, 9-1. it was their 100th win of the season and it clinched the American League East for the first time since 2012. Aaron Boone became the first manager to win 100 games in both of his first two seasons as a manager. the Yankees start their final series at home before the playoffs tonight against Toronto.

Big Brother went as i expected last night. Michie voted out Cliff. Michie won the first HOH of the final 3. he will face the winner of Nicole vs. Holly in the final HOH of the season.

Mr InBetween was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Real Time with Bill Maher, Room 104, Murder in the Bayou and AAA Presents Lucha Invades NY.

the New York Rangers are playing tonight at the Devils. i might watch some of that.

the grocery store was a zoo today. the line for the gas station was out to the street, so i had to get gas after i got the groceries. of course, it was only like 88 degrees today. thankfully, i didn't buy any frozen shit today. between gas, and both grocery stores, i think i spent a little over $110. in my mind, that's a win.

i will be on here tomorrow before Ohio State plays in the afternoon.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...
