yet another dreary day

i thought i was doing everything pretty much correctly. i've cut way down on the amount sugar i put in my body. of course, being a writer, exercise really isn't part of the lifestyle. so when the doctor told me this morning my A1C was the same as last time, i wasn't very happy. so now i get to take another drug with the drug i'm currently taking and i get to stick myself every morning and check my numbers. oh goody. good thing my birthday is coming up. increases the chances of me just drinking myself to death.

i did watch some of both football games yesterday. that Dallas vs. Green Bay game was definitely an instant classic. the conference championship games coming up on Sunday should be good.

Manchester United got a draw with Liverpool yesterday, 1-1. Paul Pogba had a regrettable game, as did much of the United team. thankfully, Zlatan came through once again. i tried to be happy after the game, but honestly, it felt like 2 points lost.

The Young Pope was crazy last night. i'm not sure yet if i'm really going to like the show or not.

Homeland was good last night. it looks like they thought Hillary was going to win as well.

The Affair was excellent last night. i can't wait to see what happens in the next 2 episodes.

day 2 of the WWE UK Championship tournament was fucking great. each match was better than the last one. i was absolutely thrilled with the storytelling and the commentary. the final match between Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate was a classic. and to think that Tyler Bate is only 19 years old. he is definitely the future of the business. hopefully they shoot him to the moon now that they have him as champion.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Young Pope. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening. i might sneak in a little college basketball as well.

so i go back to the doctor in 3 months. hopefully the pill he puts me on works. i know the next time i have to give some more blood samples. fun fun fun. thanks again to my mother for the gift of Type 2 diabetes.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. i know mine could have been so much 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...
