after the storms and the heat wave

a massive cold front moved through here yesterday. we had a few storms out here at the farm. enough that the satellite kept going in and out. a perfect time for me to catch up on my sleep. i must have slept for a few hours. we got mostly rain during that time, no damage that i could see. i spent the rest of yesterday mostly watching soccer, Gold Cup, MLS, Mexican First Division, etc, etc.

amazingly, the Yankees played a good game yesterday and won 5-2. figures, since i wasn't able to watch it. i did see the highlights, which included this amazing double play

they play tonight to try to win the series. i'll watch a little of it. if they keep winning without me watching my superstitious ass will have to abide. of course, by the time my Sunday night shows are over they might still be playing.

another great episode of ROH last night. it certainly did the trick to make me want to see what happens next week.

i was really hoping the cold front was going to break all this fucking humidity we have here. but, it has stalled and now the air is thicker than shit outside. it was like wearing a sweater when i went out to feed the cats this morning. so, another day inside i suppose.

i'm really looking forward to seeing team USA play today in Gold Cup action. i would love to see them extend the longest winning streak in national team history. i feel pretty good that they will be able to do so. i believe the game is on FOX today.

tonight will be the usual viewing of Big Brother, The Newsroom and Ray Donovan. hopefully all 3 are good.

since i have really caught up on my sleep now, i figure i will be up late tonight. i'm hoping to maybe crank out a few poems.

hope everyone is having a good weekend.
