the rain had to end sometime...

i could hear the rain last night over the fan i have in my room. and the fan is usually loud enough to drown out the music i always have playing at night. just hearing the rain last night made me ache even more. but, i amazingly did find a spot and got somewhere near 6 hours of sleep. of course, i paid for that when i woke up this morning and my whole body popped when i got out of bed. it was like i was cracking my knuckles and the rest of my body wanted in on the fun. good times.

i did do a little poetry work last night. i went through the poems and came up with 10 i will probably be sending out tomorrow. i guess i'll take a shower since i will have to go to the post office to send these poems out.

The Voice last night was pretty good. only one performance really blew me away:

The Muppets was pretty funny last night. i wonder how great the show could be if it was on HBO or Showtime.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be American Horror Story: Hotel and You're The Worst. i will be watching NXT on the WWE Network.

Manchester United plays Middlesbrough in the Capital One Cup today. with Chelsea and Arsenal losing yesterday, this is suddenly a trophy that United could actually win. i have no clue who LVG will play today as it is obvious that many players need a rest after this run of games. plus, you want to make sure the right guys are ready for the game on Saturday. hopefully, i will be drinking a victory beer this evening.

my sister landed in Cape Town today. hopefully she's having a great time.

did all my fantasy football shit this morning. nothing quite liking waking up early on a Wednesday morning trying to figure out what is going to happen 4 days in the future. i'm still shocked that all 3 of my teams are 6-1.

my fantasy hockey team has started slow this week. not the right week for that to happen.

i'm still in the kitchen. if it dries out in the next day or so, i will try to get some pictures of the trees behind the house and the changing colors of the leaves. of course, all of my cameras are loaded for the computer that is currently dead, so that could get interesting.

that's all for me today. i will be on here sometime tomorrow afternoon.

hope this finds everyone enjoying a stiff drink somewhere.

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

peace and chicken grease...
