not exactly how i want to wake up in the morning...

i couldn't find a spot for my back last night to calm down until almost 5 in the morning. sometime around 9, i heard a lawnmower outside of my window. sure enough, the guy who cuts our grass was out there mowing. i knew there was no way i could get some more sleep, as i needed to get going since mom had a doctor's appointment this afternoon. i would have loved to get more than 4 hours of sleep, but people in hell want ice water as well.

i got mom to her appointment on time. her A1C was good and everything looks to be well with all her shit. after that was over, she wanted to go to Long John Silver's. the one closest to us closed about a year ago, so this the only one even remotely close to us now. i didn't get much as it was one of those combo Long John Silver's/KFC restaurants. after that was over, i decided to drive back through the town i grew up in. i went back into the neighborhood i grew up in and holy shit, it was hit bad by that Memorial Day tornado. the house i grew up in looks like it had damage on all 4 sides of it and the roof. the tree i thought about killing myself on when i was 8 got destroyed. the other side of the street looked even worse. it looked like every apartment building in the apartments next to where i grew up got damaged. this was the first time i had been back in the neighborhood in probably 20 years. as much as things looked the same (minus the damage of course) the more i knew it will never recover. i'm really hoping i am wrong about that, but i doubt i will be.

the New York Yankees won yesterday, 10-3, to split their series with the White Sox. they start a series tonight at home against Tampa. first place will be on the line.

Axios was excellent yesterday.

Big Little Lies was great last night.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

the season finale of The Chi had some truly holy shit moments. i'm really interested to see where this goes for season 3.

Our Cartoon President was fucking hilarious last night.

City on a Hill was really good last night. i think i'm really going to enjoy this series.

Euphoria was excellent last night. i got a good laugh from people thinking it's controversial. these are probably the same people that believe their teenagers are angels and don't do drugs or look at porn or do plenty of crazy shit. i can't say i had many high school parties like the one on the show, but i had a couple that were crazy as fuck and that was in the 90's. and i truly believe the drugs are way better today than back then.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Desus & Mero. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

here are your scores from the Women's World Cup today:
China vs. Spain 0-0, Germany defeated South Africa 4-0, France defeated Nigeria 1-0 and Norway defeated South Korea 2-1.

in the Gold Cup yesterday, Haiti beat Bermuda, 2-1 and Costa Rica defeated Nicaragua 4-0. tonight El Salvador takes on Curacao and Honduras takes on Jamaica.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime after mom gets her injection for her back. she is really looking forward to this as her back has been killing her the past few days.

i know once she gets that done she wants me to take her to Burger King so she can get her favorite frozen drink. joy.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow...

dormiré mejor cuando esté muerto
