i'll sleep when they put me in the ground

so when i finally got done watching everything from last night, it was 4 in the morning. i laughed and knew my old ass was going to be up before 8 anyways. sure enough, 7:45 this morning, rise and shine. and since the printer decided to have another fuck you kind of day, i didn't get a nap in today. hopefully i don't fall asleep as i'm taking the trash down to the curb later.

i think i enjoyed the Grammy Awards last night. i could have done without Taylor Swift being on camera every 30 seconds or so, but oh well. i did enjoy most of the performances. i also enjoyed the fuck ups. i thought Kendrick Lamar easily had the best performance of the night. i'm sure there were houses of white people around the country scared to death while he was performing. i am torn on Lady Gaga's tribute to David Bowie last night. i want to love it but something is keeping me from doing that. and i really need to see Hamilton sometime before i die.

The X-Files were pretty interesting last night. it was so campy in spots that i truly laughed my ass off. the ending has me wondering what's coming for the finale next week.

Monday Night Raw was really good last night. any show that has Kevin Owens winning a title is going to get a big round of applause from me. i thought they did a really good job of setting up the pay per view coming up on Sunday.

The Big Show interview with Stone Cold Steve Austin was great on WWE Network. i really loved that Show was very open and honest about his career and what he's done over the years. it was really better than i was expecting.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Muppets, Total Divas, and the Black Panther documentary on PBS.

i need to get the trash picked up and get ready for dinner, so the rest of this will be short.

i'm really happy to see the Dayton Flyers are ranked the highest they have been since 1967. they have a huge game tomorrow.

thankfully, it sounds like the New York Rangers are getting their captain back for their game against Chicago tomorrow night.

i saw that Andra Day's album was on sale at iTunes today. i got that and have really enjoyed it so far. she reminds me a lot of Etta James.

i've got a few poems in my head that i want to write out here in the next few days. since the weather is supposed to get better over the upcoming days, i might actually get to the post office to mail some poems out.

that's all for me kids. i hope this finds everyone enjoying a drink and something funky on the radio, that is if you even have one of those anymore.

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...
