when you have to convince yourself you slept instead of...

i'm pretty sure what sleep was for me last night was 5 1/2 hours of being unable to get my back into a comfortable position. so with that killing me today, my sister went alone to see our father's family. i doubt i'm going to miss much.

the New York Yankees lost again last night, 6-3. thankfully, i believe that was enough to waive the white flag. they traded Andrew Miller to the Indians this morning for 4 prospects. 2 of them are in the Indians top 5. for some reason, they traded for former Yankee Tyler Clippard. i guess they wanted a veteran arm in a depleted bullpen now. but, the good news, the Yankees now have 7 of top 100 prospects in all of baseball. that's one way to rebuild a farm system. now, if they can just get rid of Nova. McCann, A-Rod, Tex and Beltran, i'll be thrilled. hopefully they will get swept by the Rays today.

i finally got a chance to watch The Night Before last night. i believe i have a new go to Christmas movie. that was fucking hilarious. my sister loved it as well.

we saw the fireworks last night from the community picnic. thankfully, it was a nice enough night that you could actually have a beer while standing in the driveway watching.

ROH was excellent last night. it's been awhile since i've seen someone get their head shaved on television. classic heel move. good stuff.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Power, The Night Of, Ballers, Vice Principals, Last Week Tonight, Ray Donovan and Roadies.

i did see that Manchester United won their friendly yesterday in Sweden. and it was good to see that it took less than 4 minutes for the King of Sweden to score.

i got my laundry done yesterday. i think i did tweak my back a little while bending down to get the clothes out of the dryer. good times.

i saw this the other day and had to laugh. it's so fucking true.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.

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...
