41 in my mind, with the body of some old man willing to die

i think i was in my massage chair for most of yesterday. i tried ice, i tried heat, i tried sleeping, none of it to much success. that's the joy of a bad back. sometimes it has a mind of its own. so, now i'm walking like i am in my 70's. joy.

the New York Rangers won their 6th straight game yesterday, defeating Edmonton 4-2. for the first time since the 90's it feels like the Rangers actually have a power play that works. i guess getting Kevin Shattenkirk was worth it. the Rangers are off until Wednesday when they will play at Chicago.

Ohio State rebounded nicely from their horrible loss last week to absolutely destroy Michigan St., 48-3 yesterday. honestly, the game never felt even that close.

the LEGO Batman Movie was really good last night.

Foo Fighters - Landmarks Live in Concert was awesome last night. to see them play in Greece at the Acropolis was truly a sight to see.

ROH was excellent last night.

Austin City Limits was very good last night.

Saturday Night Live was great last night. i wasn't sure how they would use Tiffany Haddish, so i was pleasantly surprised they actually allowed her to be great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Last Week Tonight, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Shameless, SMILF and the series finale of Vice Principals.

the New Orleans Saints play today at Buffalo. if the Saints win today on the road, i'll know they are for real this season. Buffalo is one of the better home teams in the league.

i have all the poems printed out that i want to read during my interview tomorrow morning. i'm really hoping i get a good night of sleep before that happens in the morning tomorrow. it will be the biggest one of these things i have done, so i know i'll probably already be in my own head at some point.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow sometime after that is recorded. i know mom wants to go out shopping at some point this week. since we are going up to my sister's for Christmas, apparently we are now roped in to doing stockings for her friends children. that had me scrambling last night, figuring out how to use my rewards points on my Capital One credit card. thankfully, i hadn't touched them before, so i was able to get a really nice gift card to Amazon.com that should cover everything.

now, do i get them something reasonable or something loud as fuck? decisions, decisions...

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

la muerte es una bella amante paseando por el río

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...
