when i got up this morning, it was snowing. i hung around the house, hoping the pharmacy was going to have both of my prescriptions ready by the time they said they would. of course, they didn't. i went to the grocery store anyway. the roads weren't bad and there wasn't many people out and about. by the time i got home, i had spent nearly $200 getting the food and pills and more importantly, the liquor for this weekend. as i told my mother when i got home, we're fully fucking stocked for the Super Bowl. and then she tells me how her back doctor called and asked if she wanted to move her appointment up to Monday at 11 AM? i shot her a look and said let me guess, you said yes? of course she did. so yeah, that's going to be fucking fun.
i did type up those 10 poems last night. i really liked a few of them. i should have a nice stack of poems ready to send out early in February.
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Detroit. hopefully, the time off has them charged up to make a playoff push.
i will be on here early tomorrow, hopefully before Manchester United plays.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
until tomorrow kids...

i just love the mornings where i'm up after 3 1/2 hours of sleep; don't make it to the toilet in time for a shit; my back gives out while i'm shaving; the shower turns into a deep question of which is the quickest way to die?... and this was all before fucking noon. joy.
mom did have her doctor's appointment today. she got an injection for her bones. i wrote 10 poems while she was getting that done. i will type those up later tonight. after her procedure, we went to Waffle House. before the procedure she wanted to go to Miller Lane, where all the chain restaurants are. after the procedure and walking a little, she knew she couldn't do that. so Waffle House it was. the waitress there knows us. joy.
Miz and Mrs was pretty fucking funny last night.
NXT was excellent last night.
AEW was really good last night as well.

the Dayton Flyers won last night at Duquesne, 73-69. they nearly blew a 19 point lead in the second half. but, a win is a win. the Flyers are now 19-2. they play at home on Saturday against Fordham.
i'll be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done. of course, since i will be out and about, it's supposed to either rain or snow tomorrow. joy.

these gloomy days don't agree with me. now, the poet in me doesn't mind it, plenty of shit to write about there. but the rest of me, fuck, i need some sunshine, something bright to lift my spirits. i guess that's where the alcohol comes into play. probably the reason why i only drink after success. if i drank because of failure, i'd be dead.
Manchester United won today over Manchester City, 1-0. but, since they lost the first leg of this semifinal at Old Trafford 3-1, they end up losing 3-2 on aggregate. oh well, i'll take the positives from the game today. a clean sheet, a victory on the road and the club announced they have signed Bruno Fernandes.
WWE Backstage was pretty good last night.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be NXT, AEW and Miz & Mrs.

since mom had a doctor's appointment today, i decided i would shower at night so she wouldn't feel like she had to rush today to get ready. of course, i'm a night owl anymore, so that shower came at 3 in the morning. i'm sure she's happy i wasn't blasting music like i do sometimes.
her appointment went well today. she's supposed to go back on Thursday as long as her blood work is fine. i might actually get some poems written at that appointment.
The New Pope was excellent last night.
Monday Night Raw was good last night. the close of it with Edge and Randy Orton was fucking great.

i am running behind today. i need to pick up the trash here and next door and get dinner started, so this won't be a long one today.
i took mom out to lunch after her appointment. we went to Perkins, mostly because i had a free meal for my birthday coupon that was going to expire today. the food was excellent. would have been better if i wouldn't have had to hear the religious Trump loving assholes over in the corner. i would ponder why people are stupid but i live here. i know exactly why.
i will be on here tomorrow probably before Manchester United plays. or maybe not.
i know i will be on here before the Dayton Flyers play tomorrow night.

i was kind of in the void yesterday when i got done with the blog. i was never a huge Kobe Bryant fan, mostly because he always killed the team i loved (Sacramento Kings), but as a basketball fan, it was hard not to know just how damn good Kobe was. i was really hoping for something last night to get my mind off of his death and thankfully, the WWE came through for me.
the Royal Rumble was fucking great last night. i mean really, really good. easily one of the top 5 Royal Rumbles off all time. and that is fucking saying something.

WWE Worlds Collide: NXT vs. NXT UK was fucking amazing last night. it set the bar really high for the Royal Rumble tonight.
the Dayton Flyers won at Richmond last night, 87-79. good teams win, great teams cover the spread. Dayton plays again on the road on Wednesday at Duquesne. Dayton is 7-0 in conference play and 18-2 overall. they haven't lost in regulation yet this season. here's Richmond's coach talking about the Flyers after the game:

Manchester United won this morning in the FA Cup 6-0. where the fuck has that been all season?

ok, i just saw the news that Kobe's 13 year old daughter was on the helicopter as well and they were on the way to her basketball practice.
the snow isn't sticking just yet, but i imagine at some point it will. i didn't get to sleep until 5 this morning. woke up at 9:30, feeling oddly refreshed. it must have been the alcohol.
Smackdown was pretty good last night, as was 205 Live.
i did watch some of the NHL Skills competitions last night. the All-Star game is tonight.

i heard back from Alan at Misfit Magazine on my recent poetry submission. my poems "the bleakest future" and "decided to suffer" have been accepted for publication.
when it rains like this, a constant drizzle between downpours, my body can't take it anymore. every joint in my body has ached all fucking day. and the arthritis that is forming on my spine is the worst. i had to ice my back down this morning just to take a fucking shower. joy.
the season finale of Perfect Harmony was really good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time w/Bill Maher. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
the grocery store was a bit crazy this afternoon. and i love when i have to bag my own groceries when my arthritis is raging. the cashier could tell i was in pain and thanked me repeatedly for helping.
i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

so, i woke up this morning with my back on fire, needing to take a bloody shit. welcome to being 44. it took me the rest of the morning to get my back to a point where i could walk without a pain. i have a theory though. i believe it was my inner child fucking with me because he didn't want me to get my bifocals. of course, i got those this afternoon. my sunglasses aren't ready yet. joy.
Manchester United is quickly approaching rock bottom. they lost at home yesterday to Burnley, 2-0. i watched most of the debacle. they got what they deserved.
the Dayton Flyers whipped St. Bonaventure last night, 86-60. it was close for about 13 minutes. and then with a snap of the fingers, Dayton ended the first half on like a 22-5 run and that was that. they play a tough road game in Richmond on Saturday. Dayton is now in first place in the A10 by themselves.
NXT was really good last night.
AEW was really good as well last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:

that's all for me kids. my vision is much better with the new glasses. kind of like going from regular HD to 4K.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i remember having a surprise party for my 16th birthday. most birthdays after that have been downhill since. last night was no different. my mother wanted to make me something special for dinner. of course, when it didn't come out how she wanted it to (it was fine by the way), she got depressed and lamented her cooking skills leaving her with age. and no matter how many times i told her it was fine, she kept apologizing.
the New York Rangers lost last night to the Islanders, 4-2. Artemi Panarin didn't play last night due to an upper body injury. it certainly showed in the game how much the Rangers rely on him for everything. they are off now for the All-Star break.
WWE Backstage was really good last night.
i got a call this morning that my glasses are ready. so i guess i will add that to my to do list for today. joy.
i'd love to know who is the one asshole that didn't vote for Derek Jeter to be in the hall of fame. Larry Walker made it yesterday as well.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be NXT and AEW.
Manchester United plays later today against Burnley. this is a MUST win game.
the #7 Dayton Flyers play at home tonight against St. Bonaventure. i'm really hoping Dayton wins tonight.
amazingly, they picked up the trash and recyclables pretty early this morning.
i should have some poems published later today, hopefully before i leave for the basketball game. so, look for a second blog at some point today or tonight.
that's all for now kids... until tomorrow...

no big plans this evening that i'm aware of. i'll probably be watching the Rangers vs. Islanders game tonight, hoping the Rangers win so i can have a drink on my birthday. hell, maybe even a shot.
i sent out 11 poems this morning; 3 each to Mad Swirl and Yellow Mama; 5 to Misfit Magazine. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.
Monday Night Raw had some good moments last night and plenty of moments where i switched the channel.
The New Pope was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be WWE Backstage.
other than the hockey game, i'll probably watch some college basketball tonight as well.
i'm really hoping Derek Jeter will be elected to the baseball hall of fame later today with 100% of the vote.
i still have the trash to pick up here and next door, so that's pretty much it for me kids.
in the music section today, i have my 5 favorite songs of all-time.
i will be on here in the morning tomorrow as my Wednesday is going to be a busy one.
until then kids...

my birthday is tomorrow. my grandmother's birthday is today. or was, seeing that she is dead. she would have been 108 today. i imagine if she was alive, she'd still be smoking by a window saying woe is me and listening to old gospel songs. she died back in the 90's.
happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day. hopefully it was more than just a day off for you.
so, we had a nice night of miscommunication last night. i thought my sister was going home last night, as my mother told me. that wasn't correct. and we had a big dinner last night. mom thought we were going to do the cake and presents after dinner. i started watching my Sunday night shows as i was too full to have something else. so, mom got pissy and did her passive aggressive act and went to bed. i watched the shows with my sister until about midnight as my sister requires something resembling 8 hours of sleep a night. i told her if you ever see me sleep 8 hours, i'm dead. i went to bed around 2 and was up at 6 this morning to take a giant shit. enjoy the visual.
i opened my presents today. my sister got me a book, some music and some clothes. my mother got me some clothes and a card. it was all more than i was expecting. i sent my sister home with some cake.
the NFL games went as i was expecting yesterday. Kansas City defeated Tennessee, 35-24. San Francisco defeated Green Bay, 37-20. Chiefs vs. 49ers should be a good Super Bowl.
the New York Rangers blew a lead last night and lost to Columbus, 2-1. if they actually want to make the playoffs, that's a game they needed to win.
Batwoman was pretty good last night.
Power was excellent last night.
the season finale of Ray Donovan was great last night.
Shameless was really good last night. the season finale is next week.
The Outsider was fucking weird as hell last night. loved it.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The New Pope. i'll watch Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
i was hoping to get this blog done before the Manchester United game today, as i knew i'd be a bit pissy if the game went as i thought it would. of course, it did. United lost to Liverpool 2-0. the much worse news in my eyes is the injury news for Marcus Rashford. stress fractures in his back and a loose bone in his ankle. i figure once he has the surgeries, his season might as well be over. that opens up the big question here in the January transfer window; will United bring anyone in? i doubt it, and if that is the case, then Mason Greenwood should take his place and start all the fucking games. i doubt they do that either. my best guess is the owners are fine with this fucking mediocrity and will do nothing. joy.
i did watch a ton of college basketball yesterday. there were so many upsets, i think there's a decent chance that Dayton may end up in the top 10 tomorrow. if so, that would be the first time since 1967.
Austin City Limits was really good and weird last night.
ROH was good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Batwoman, the season finale of Ray Donovan, Shameless, Power, The Outsider, Avenue 5 and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

i do plan on watching the AFC and NFC championship games today. first up is the Titans at the Chiefs. the second game is the Packers at the 49ers. winners go to the Super Bowl.
i hope everyone had a good Saturday. i hope your Sunday is even better.
i will be on here tomorrow sometime between doing loads of my laundry.
i guess we're celebrating my birthday today whenever my sister gets back here. joy.
