the end of 2017 (hopefully)

well, we've come to the end of another year. much like i expected, the chaos in the country and government have been a boon to my writing. this has easily been my most productive year as a writer. i'm hoping to have some concrete plans in place sometime in 2018 for a new book, some new videos on YouTube, some new recordings on Soundcloud, and if i happen to get a wild hair up my ass, i'm thinking of doing an album of spoken word recordings and releasing that on Bandcamp. now, let's see if my lazy ass does any of that shit in the next year or not.

the Dayton Flyers lost yesterday at Duquesne 70-62. for some damn reason, this team can't finish a half strong, be it the first or second half. Dayton had the lead early and then blew that by halftime. Dayton had the lead in the second half and then only scored 1 more point for the rest of the game. it could just be how young they are or it could be a coach that simply doesn't know what the fuck he is doing right now. and i love all the Anthony Grant apologists that are coming to his defense with the old wait until he gets all of his players in here excuse. if they still suck in 3 years, i hope they all understand just how much they were wrong.

Manchester United played a listless 0-0 draw yesterday against Southampton. Lukaku got stretchered off in the first half and he will miss at least the next 2 games. Zlatan is out for a month, so i guess that means any goal scoring is going to have to come from Rashford or Martial. i would put down Pogba but they have him playing so far from the goal that i refuse to be delusional about him scoring again this season. sadly, this season has now turned into a struggle to stay in the top 4. great.

ROH last night was a look back at some of the matches from 2017.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Shameless and the season finale of SMILF.

the New Orleans Saints can win their division today with a win at Tampa Bay. with a little luck, they could even get a higher seed if they win. they haven't won the division since 2011.

team USA plays Finland today at the World Juniors. a victory will give them second place in the group. anything else and they will have a tougher game in the quarterfinals.

i believe it was somewhere around -7 when i went out to get the paper this morning. i won't be going outside again today.

i'm not sure what the hell i'll be doing at midnight tonight. if it's like most of my adult years, i'll have a beverage in one hand and plenty of poetic thoughts in my head. the sad thing, the only kiss i have ever had at midnight of a new year was from a guy. not that there's anything wrong with that, but watching that shit after the ball drops is probably why most of my poems that start off a new year are bitter as fuck.

as always, i hope everyone has a great New Year's Eve. drive safely, party hard and live with no regrets.

el futuro es nuestro

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...
