the joy of being a poet

i was out and about for a good portion of today. i had to go to the post office, make a deposit at the bank and then head up to Menards. i found just about everything i wanted to get at Menards, and thankfully got it done in just over 60 minutes. on the way back home, i went past a cemetery as a funeral was going on. if you look down in the music section, you can guess which song was playing as i drove past it. these are the moments where being a poet is actually fun.

i wrote the poem once i got home. i might do a little more writing tonight and then type them all up.

i did watch a good portion of the New York Rangers preseason game against Philadelphia last night. there was the usual dirty shit from the Flyers that they always do. i was happy to see the Rangers come back to force the game into OT. i didn't enjoy them losing less than 30 seconds in OT. but, it's the preseason for a reason. Philadelphia won 4-3. the Rangers play the Islanders tonight i believe.

The Voice was really good last night. i think Blake and Alicia have the best teams.

Gotham was great last night.

Monday Night Raw was excellent for the first time in months. of course, they were in Los Angeles, so i figured they would do an A+ show for a change. loved that they had the ladies do the main event. Sasha Banks and Charlotte have such great chemistry with each other. plus, a title change never hurts to make a show feel special.

i got the Monday Night Football game right, but my picks were still under .500 for the weekend. i'm at the point now where i might just blow up my fantasy teams and say fuck it for the season.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, WWE Smackdown and Atlanta.

i did listen to the latest and probably last Sam and Cathy podcast today. it was great as usual. you can listen to it by going here: https://soundcloud.com/samrobertsshow/sam-cathy-027-see-you-never

the trash is all picked up and honestly, i could use a fucking nap. adios mis amigos.

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...
