apparently, the sun was taking the day off...

whenever it is rainy all the fucking time anymore, i get in a pretty bad head space. the pain from the arthritis is getting to the point where it's dragging all of me down. and i know on a good day, i can battle that and just move the fuck on. but, on the days where my past demons start to choke me and i don't feel like fighting for that next breath, i know what is coming next. and i really don't want to harm myself anytime soon, i just know that i won't be able to fight that forever. ah, the life of a poet. write about the pain. write about the pleasure derived from the pain. write about the bleak and the hopeless nights alone. write about a bit of sunshine on a day to commit murder. good times.

the USA women's team defeated Sweden today at the Women's World Cup, 2-0. that means they win the group and will face Spain on Monday. here are the others scores from today's games:
Netherlands defeated Canada 2-1, Cameroon over New Zealand 2-1 and Chile defeated Thailand 2-0.

in the Gold Cup last night, Martinique defeated Cuba 3-0 and Mexico defeated Canada 3-1. tonight, Nicaragua takes on Haiti and Costa Rica plays Bermuda.

NXT and NXT UK were really good last night.

both episodes of The Wrestlers were excellent last night.

i did get to the bank today and made a deposit. it looks like the bank had some roof damage and some windows blown out by the tornado. after that, i took a little drive down to the old Hara Arena. i saw so many hockey games and wrestling events there over my lifetime. to see the damage from the tornado and know the place will never exist again, it felt like a part of me was finally dead.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lip Sync Battle, Desus & Mero, two episodes of Life in Pieces, Baskets and Holey Moley.

the NBA Draft is tonight. i think the first three picks are pretty much a lock, so the draft really begins at number 4.

the New York Yankees start a series tonight against Houston. i really hope the Yankees just keep on winning.

my sister will be down here tonight. i think she's going to be here for a few days. joy.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store.

until then, have a good one...

a veces el sol solo trae cancer

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...
