i managed to post my ramblings yesterday in this blog right before a huge storm rolled through. we didn't get too much damage, just minor shit really. but, a few miles north and they had hurricane force winds and the next town over is still without power this morning. i'm constantly amazed at how lucky we get out here.
the Yankees offense woke up last night, finally. 3 run homer from Cano and a grand slam from Overbay in a 8-1 win. Nova was dominant on the mound once again. i believe he has finally found it. and a nice little rumor this morning, Derek Jeter is going to be called up for the game this afternoon. i'll definitely be tuned in to see if that is true or not. and hopefully watch the Yankees split the series.
i got to enjoy one of my favorite beers last night after the Yankees victory. Sam Adams Cherry Wheat. that little pop of cherry after each drink... perfect. i could drink that beer endlessly until the day i die.
i did watch The Bridge last night on FX. holy shit that was good. definitely will be watching it again. enough plot twists and turns that should keep me interested for the summer.
i did watch Big Brother as well last night and after reading some overnight recaps this morning, i'm afraid i'm going to be in for another sad eviction tonight. looks like it's possible that a member of the all guy alliance has turned on them. while it should make for great trashy tv, it also means that production's little darling Elissa is going to be staying. yuck.
after that tonight i will luckily have Wilfred to turn to for some laughs. that show never disappoints.
there are some Manchester United rumors this morning that i'm not very happy with. starting to remind me of a few years ago when they lost a player at the last moment to a rival. i'm really hoping it's not a case of deja vu. i suppose time will tell, most likely in the next 4 days.
i heard last night on the news that the local pro soccer team will be playing a friendly against Wigan next Tuesday. i'm really tempted to travel to see that one. not sure if it's going to happen though.
i haven't been outside this morning, but it certainly looks like the stranglehold of humidity might have finally broken. if i can feed the animals and not be dripping with sweat after 5 minutes, i'll be happier than a pig in shit.
the poetry itch needs to be scratched again, or so it feels. after the journey into the public yesterday, i believe i may have a few thoughts to be put down on paper this evening. i would have done that last night but my anger with Frontier Communications over the internet going out again at 1:15 am while i was in the middle of doing a survey (for money) royally pissed me off. 3 times at a time where 95% of the people around here are asleep, even the fucking teenagers. i'd love to switch providers but everyone else out here sucks as well. pretty sad when we have to entertain moving just so we can get a more reliable internet service. maybe one day these fuckers out here will wake up and realize it's the 21st century.
allow me to step off my soapbox now...
hope everyone has a great day. i really hope i do.
