i hate driving in the rain

i made sure i got enough sleep, but do you know how fucking hard it is to stay awake while driving in the rain? i think i must have yawned damn near the whole way to Columbus. that's almost 72 miles of yawning by the way. mom then had me get off on the wrong exit. that was fun. i got her to the hotel in plenty of time. as i told her, i don't drive to enjoy the scenery. i drive because i have someplace to fucking go. i stayed around until she got on the shuttle bus to go to her conference. the drive home was rather interesting. the rain finally stopped and there was about 10 of us wondering who had the balls to pass the guy driving the sheriff's vehicle. i decided i was the one, especially when i knew this fucker had been driving 85 in a 65 mph zone for about 10 miles. so i flew past him and he didn't give a shit. good times. i wanted to make sure i made it to the post office by 1:30 this afternoon. at 1:27, i was pulling into the parking lot.

late last night, i sent off some poems via email. and i mailed another 5 out at the post office today. i sent 3 to Dead Snakes and 5 each to Horror Sleaze Trash and Nerve Cowboy. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.

Lucha Underground last night was very interesting. i'm not sure if Pentagon Jr. was really injured or did a fucking fantastic job of selling it. i do know the look on Vampiro's face at the end of the show means there is going to be some dark shit later on this season. that's always a good thing.

NXT was a bit of a filler show as Takeover: Dallas will be live tomorrow night. honestly, the NXT card is better than the WrestleMania card this year. more on that tomorrow.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight (weather permitting) will be The Big Bang Theory, the season finale of Life in Pieces, Lip Sync Battle and WWE Smackdown. after Smackdown is over i will be flipping to WWE Network to check out the Stone Cold Podcast with Mick Foley.

the New York Rangers play tonight in Carolina. i'm interested to see how Eric Staal plays in his first game back in Carolina.

hard to imagine that the baseball season is going to start soon. of course, the New York Yankees have some injuries already, so they are in mid season form.

it is storming again here, so my arthritis is in full hate mode at the moment. so i think i'm cutting this one off here.

i'll be on tomorrow morning as there is no way i'll fit a post in on Friday night. between having to drive back up to Columbus and back and have dinner at my sister's condo while also trying to get home for the NXT event... the last thing i want is to try to squeeze a blog into that clusterfuck.

i hope this finds everyone dry, except in the places where you shouldn't be...

peace and chicken grease...
