i do remember the days where i would get up early on a Saturday morning and watch Manchester United destroy some lesser teams with ease. those days are most certainly gone and i, and most United fans around the world, fear they are never coming back. United and Southampton finished 1-1 today, even though United played the last 15 minutes or so up a man. yet another game of dropping points. i certainly didn't want this Saturday to start like that.
the New York Yankees lost last night to Oakland, 8-2. it would be nice to see the Yankees actually win a game against Oakland this season. they haven't done that yet. hopefully, that happens this afternoon.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
A Black Lady Sketch Show was excellent last night. the season finale is next week.
i did watch some college football last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be ROH.
Ohio State plays Florida Atlantic today at noon. i can't wait to see how the Ryan Day era begins.
i am really looking forward to NXT UK Takeover:Cardiff this afternoon. i think it should a great one.
if i had the money, i would get AEW All Out tonight, but $50 is out of my range these days. that's the last big show before AEW starts on TNT.
i'll probably watch some more college football this evening, especially the Oregon vs. Auburn game.
i'll be on here tomorrow in the morning most likely.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

i was walking in the grocery store today and my back started to spasm while the pinched nerve in my right arm started to flare up. i was almost hoping it was the start of a heart attack. of course, it wasn't. it reminded me of a conversation i had with a homeless guy when i was a teenager. he said his only goal was to make sure he wasn't a pretty corpse. i have little doubt we are both going to achieve that goal.
the grocery store wasn't too bad today. the prices keep going up on shit. joy. i did get stuck behind a couple school buses on the way home. i had a good laugh at the black kids being dropped off in what once was a lillywhite school district. Northmont is what Trotwood was in the 90's. so fucking hilarious. of course, all the kids dropped off in Brookville, where i live, were white and clueless to the real world. if i am still living here when diversity hits this town, i will laugh my ass off at the number of whites fleeing for something better.
Big Brother went as i expected last night. Nick got evicted. Michie is the new HOH. hopefully, this will be when they get Christie out. the double eviction is coming this week.
i did watch some college football last night.
the New Orleans Saints lost to Miami last night, 16-13. i'm interested to see who the Saints are going to cut to make it down to the 53 man roster.
i did watch the USA women's national team defeat Portugal 4-0 last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and A Black Lady Sketch Show.
our local NBC station came back on DIRECTV last night. as i told my mother, they would have an agreement when football came around. no one wants that kind of abuse for missing a game.
the New York Yankees start a series tonight at home against Oakland. i would love to see them get a little payback for the series in Oakland.
i'll probably watch some college football tonight as well.
the tricky shit starts tomorrow morning. Manchester United plays early tomorrow morning.
there's a slight window after that is over where i'm going to try to write the blog tomorrow. i need to have it done before noon as Ohio State starts their season off then.
the Yankees play tomorrow afternoon and NXT UK Takeover:Cardiff happens as well.
so in case i'm not on here right after or before Manchester United plays, i might not be on here until early Saturday evening. best case scenario is United gets up big early and i can start on the blog early. i know, i'm fucking dreaming.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. i know a fucking hurricane is on the way. luckily, it looks like it might be headed right for the dump the asshole that thinks he's king of this country calls a resort. i believe they call that karma.
i'm off to go ice down my bad back and dream about some woman in Colorado who doesn't want to fall in love with me.

it was that kind of day to start off. i had some weird ass dreams. i didn't sleep worth a fuck in my bed or in my chair. and the rest of the morning was a race to the toilet. i'm guessing i ate something that didn't agree with me. joy.
i got mom to her doctor's appointment early today. we got in early and go out just about what the original time of the appointment was. she wanted to go to Red Lobster for lunch. so, we had a really good lunch.
the New York Yankees won yesterday at Seattle, 7-3. they swept the Mariners to end up with a winning road trip, which is saying something considering they lost the first 3 in Oakland. they are off tonight and start a series at home against Oakland tomorrow night.
NXT and NXT UK were both really good last night.
Big Brother was good last night. i think Nick will get evicted tonight.
i did get to see Songland this morning. it was a really good episode, even though i was a little shocked with the song that got chosen.
Snowfall was fucking great last night.

between my bed and my massage chair, i got almost 4 hours of sleep last night. and the last 45 minutes of that was with ice on my back and right shoulder. a little advice to my gambling friends, put the money on me being dead before 50.
the New York Yankees defeated Seattle last night, 7-0. they go for the sweep this afternoon.
Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.

i know mom has a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon. i think she wants to go shopping after that is over. we're celebrating my sister's birthday this weekend instead of next weekend and mom wants to get her something.
i'll be on here tomorrow after i get back home.
i think for the rest of today, i'll be trying to get some more sleep in my massage chair.
that's all for me today kids. until tomorrow...

i was so out of it this morning, as i was walking in the parking lot of the hospital where my doctor's appointment was, i realized i was wearing the shoes i normally wear around the house. i just started to laugh. i'm officially a nonplussed asshole who doesn't give two shits anymore.
so for the next month or so i will be going through some blood tests, an ultrasound, etc. to rule out everything that isn't wrong with my liver. the doctor believes it's most likely fatty liver disease. of course, i won't know until probably October. i'm not really stressed about this. i've been losing weight, mostly from apathy and eating less.
i haven't got much sleep after getting back home, so i'm running on fucking fumes at the moment. that's why i'm drinking an energy drink with hemp in it. good times.
the New York Yankees won in Seattle last night, 5-4. hopefully, they will win again tonight.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. i'm not sure what the fuck they were thinking with the tag team turmoil match, but i'm going to wait until Clash of Champions to see if i hate it or not.

so here was my situation. i sent in a medication refill request to my doctor's office last week. i called today as i took the last pill i asked for the refill on wondering why i had no reply. after being on hold for a few minutes, they came back on to tell me that the doctor i sent the request to is at another location and was unable to fill it. but they will gladly do it now. and then, i got a call back 30 minutes later to tell me the pharmacy said i still had a refill on it and they would fill it now. of course, their website said i had no refills and would have to call the doctor to get a refill. as i told my mother, they have to fuck you on the way in and make sure to fuck you on the way out. it's been raining all day and i'm fucking miserable. toss in some human incompetence and you can imagine the rage boiling inside of me. and just my luck, i have a doctor's appointment tomorrow at 8 AM. fuck me.
the New York Yankees won last night at the Dodgers, 5-1. Aaron Judge hit a home run in all 3 games of the series. hopefully, that means he's figured his shit out now and is ready to make up for lost time. i really thought the Yankees made a statement this weekend. that being said, i'm hoping the old letdown doesn't happen tonight as they start a series in Seattle.
Big Brother was good last night.
Succession was excellent last night.
The Righteous Gemstones was very funny last night.
the final season of Ballers started off with a bang.
the final season of The Affair started off with a great episode.
On Becoming A God in Central Florida brought back a ton of memories of my father and every stupid get rich quick scheme he fell for over my childhood. this show is wonderfully dark, so i'm going to enjoy it.
the final season of Power looks like it is going to be fucking great. the first episode was amazing.
i did watch a little of the MLS games last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
the grocery store was full of zombies today. it was like the rain had everyone moving at half speed.
i'll be on here tomorrow in the afternoon most likely.
my appointment tomorrow is simply supposed to a consult. of course, the message that was left for me yesterday made it sound like i'm having a procedure tomorrow. so, who the fuck knows.
i'm sure i'll be bitchy having to get up early tomorrow. joy.
that's all for me kids. the rain is supposed to continue tomorrow. i can't wait.

yesterday was one of those Saturdays where i would love to just fucking forget it ever fucking happened.
i think i fucked up my left calf again. i had a horrible cramp in it the other day and i'm pretty sure i'm limping now because of the damage that caused. joy.
Manchester United lost to Crystal Palace yesterday, 2-1. i hated the officiating in the game, but with that being said, United didn't play nearly good enough to win. and to give up the game winner in the 93rd minute, just 3 minutes after you tied the game, is fucking inexcusable. let alone, another fucking missed penalty shot. and then the stat that really got me down yesterday... since their dramatic comeback at PSG last season, United has only won 3 of their last 15 games. that's like a punch to the dick.
the New York Yankees lost to the Dodgers yesterday, 2-1. the 9th inning was fucking crazy. and once again, piss poor umpires blew a few calls... but nothing is new there. hopefully the Yankees win the series tonight.
and of course, the game i didn't get to see, the New Orleans Saints defeated the New York Jets, 28-13.
ROH was pretty good last night.
the final two episodes of Holey Moley were good. of course, only one of them were on television. our local ABC had the wrong description for one of the episodes, so the same episode recorded twice. i found the one i didn't see online. good times.
NJPW was excellent last night.
Hitsville: The Making of Motown was really good last night.
i did watch some of the Miami vs. Florida game last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Power, Succession, The Righteous Gemstones, Ballers, The Affair and On Becoming a God in Central Florida.
i had a good amount of Wild Turkey last night, so i actually got close to 4 hours of solid sleep. joy.
i think mom wants me to do some cleaning today. and i know i have that paperwork to fill out for my doctor's appointment on Tuesday.
so, that's all for me today kids. i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

Manchester United plays Crystal Palace here in a bit. i'm really hoping United can get the shitty taste of Monday out of their mouths today.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
A Black Lady Sketch Show was great last night.

i do plan on watching some of the start of college football tonight, Miami vs. Florida.
and i'm sure there will be plenty of soccer and napping along the way.
i did get some decent sleep last night for a change. i suppose that was the alcohol working.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.
i'll probably be on here early tomorrow.

on average, i probably get 3 hours of sleep in my bed because of the pinched nerve in my right arm. then, with the help of some ice and the massage chair, i might get a couple hours in that. expect for this morning, when a fucking cramp in my left leg woke me up after 45 minutes. fucking joy. so yeah, to say i'm a little pissy today...
the New York Yankees lost to Oakland last night, 5-3. they start a series tonight at the Dodgers, which many believe will be a World Series preview. the Yankees have lost 4 games in a row. this isn't exactly how i wanted them to enter this series.
Big Brother was pretty good last night. Sis got evicted, which was probably a mistake in my opinion. Holly won HOH, marking the first time this season someone has won it twice.
the series finale of Baskets was a little bittersweet.
the grocery store wasn't as crowded as i was expecting today. the tariffs are definitely starting to creep up the prices now. joy.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Real Time with Bill Maher and A Black Lady Sketch Show.
i figure i might end up watching some NFL tonight and probably some MLS as well.
my lower back has been killing me today. it's so much fun to be walking in the grocery store and watch the elderly move past you. i did have a good laugh when this drunk asked me where the fuck do they keep the lemons and limes, where you can buy just one. i pointed over to the produce and started to chuckle. i guess a drunk can always recognize another friendly soul.
i get the feeling i'm going to spend most of tonight in my massage chair icing my back. exactly how i wanted to start my weekend.
i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays in the morning.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

i heard back from Amanda at Fourth & Sycamore on my poetry submission from last month. my poems "no end in sight" and "all these years later" have been accepted for publication on September 17th.
as i told my mother in the Highlander on the way to the restaurant, you probably shouldn't mention suicide in front of the doctors. you're going to do it once and they are going to take you and i'm going to tell you you brought this on yourself. she told the doctor today that she's thought about it but is too much of a chicken to do it. these are the days when i think about going to work in a factory so my sister could go to college and my mother wouldn't have to get a second job to afford it since the asshole that played the role of father had gambled away all the college money. as my friend told me one night while drinking, a poet is pretty much the only thing i could be in this life.
we had lunch at Rusty Bucket today. it was great as usual.
the New York Yankees left a small village on base last night and lost to Oakland, 6-4. hopefully, they will avoid being swept tonight. i'm not holding my breath.
Big Brother was good last night. i can't believe it, but i guess Christie has saved herself and won't be voted out tonight, unless the fucking house flips again at the last minute. i get the feeling this is going to be the decision they will regret the most at the end.
i did get to watch Songland this morning. it was really good.
NXT was really good last night. i could watch Matt Riddle and Killian Dain wrestle forever.
here are some highlights from NXT UK yesterday:
Snowfall last night was fucking great. and i mean FUCKING GREAT.

when it's hot and sticky out, i have a short fuse. now, i don't seek conflict, never really have, but my blood truly fucking boils when i see the ignorance or just flat out stupidity of society. today's culprit was this old woman who certainly shouldn't be behind the wheel of any vehicle, let alone the SUV she was driving today. it's bad enough when a drive-thru is packed. it's worse when someone has to maintain 6 fucking feet of distance between her and the vehicle in front of her. let's just say i was on her ass as closely as i could be, truly tempted to simply move her out of the way. i never did. i believe that is known as maturity.
i went to Meijer today to stock up on some stuff we were running low on. i was hoping to find some picture frames for the art i have been getting here lately. of course, no luck with that.
the New York Yankees lost last night in Oakland, 6-2. Sanchez and Judge hit solo home runs for the Yankees runs last night. my fear is the pitching isn't going to be good enough for them to win in the playoffs this year. and seeing that these are games Oakland has to win to have a chance to make the playoffs, i won't be surprised if the Yankees lose again tonight.
Smackdown was good last night. 205 Live was very good last night.
Miz & Mrs. was hilarious last night.
Deadliest Catch was really good last night.
Hard Knocks was excellent last night.

i have to take mom to a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon. i believe we are going out to lunch after that. so, i will probably do the blog when i get back home in the afternoon.
i'm hoping Songland will be posted online early so i can watch it before i leave tomorrow. it's going to be interesting to see what happens with our local NBC station once football gets going.
that's all for me kids. i have a shitty back i need to go ice down.

i love these days where i have to ice my back down in order to sleep, to sit at the computer, to stand for more than 15 minutes, etc.etc. i swear, one day i will live in a fucking desert, hopefully while i'm alive.
i loved how Manchester United started yesterday against Wolves. i thought it was the best first half they have played on the road in a long fucking time. sadly, that didn't carry over to the second half. Ole waited too long in my opinion to put the subs on and Pogba missed a penalty kick that probably would have given United the win. instead, it finished 1-1. now, i can look at it as two points dropped or as 1 point more than United got against Wolves on the road last season. of course, all the racists came out after Pogba missed that kick. sickens me that these assholes still exist in 2019.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. i loved the King of the Ring matches and i totally didn't expect new tag team champions. of course, the reports are that Vince wasn't there last night, so that might explain why the show flowed so well.
i love that NXT is going to the USA Network in September. looks like we're going to have a little wrestling war on Wednesday nights this fall between NXT and AEW. i can't fucking wait.
