it stormed like a motherfucker this morning. my arthritis was jumping for joy. we got 1.8 inches of rain. glad i didn't water the tomatoes this morning when i woke up a little after 6.
the grocery stores were painful today. i got everything i could remember and what was in stock on the grocery list. i get the feeling i will be going out on Friday to get what i forgot/wasn't available. by the time i got home this afternoon, 4 hours after i left this morning, i felt like i needed to put a gun in my mouth. i did get some baseball and football cards today. both were Fairfield boxes. i got both for $9 and there was over $20 worth of cards out of both boxes.
Bill Cosby is a reminder to everyone, it never fucking matters the crimes you commit. if you are rich, you will get off one way or another in this country.

i will probably watch some of Game 2 of the Stanley Cup final tonight and some of the NBA playoffs as well.
i have absolutely no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. can't fucking believe that July is knocking on the door.
mom had a nurse out here this morning. i guess i'm supposed to take her blood pressure at a different time now. they can't figure out if she's on too many drugs or if the readings are false positives in a sense. mom did admit to me last night that she's interested in smoking medicinal marijuana at some point in all of this. i just looked at her and asked where the fuck was this version of you when you actually needed it? i know one thing, if she's smoking it, i will be as well.
i guess Manchester United finally landed Jadon Sancho. hopefully that will be the first of a few desperately needed impact players coming to the club this summer.

the Yankees lost again to the Red Sox yesterday, 9-2. yet another fucking sweep. fuck me. they start a series tonight back in the Bronx against the Angels.

i swear, i can't sleep more than 4 hours. i went to bed after 2 this morning and got up a little after 6. fuck me.
it felt muggy as hell outside this morning. i watered the tomatoes because i know damn well, the rain chances around here today are slim and none.
mom and i went to Menards last night. we got a new suet bird feeder and more hot pepper suet. we also got some bamboo stakes for the tomatoes. i swear, those things are growing like they are on steroids. i was hoping we were going to find some plants to use on the back porch, but they didn't have anything mom liked. after Menards, she wanted her frozen coke from Burger King. i went to the one on the way home (sort of) and there's 20 minutes of my life i'll never get back. the frozen coke machine was defrosting so i just got her some water instead. her allergies were acting up. fun times.
the Yankees lost again last night to Boston, 4-2. hopefully, they won't get swept again this afternoon.

so, mom decided she wanted to have a cheat meal on her low sodium diet last night. so, i ordered some pizza and wings from Pizza Hut last night. i get the feeling we're both going to be paying for that the rest of the weekend.
the Yankees lost last night to the Red Sox, 5-3. i'm pretty fucking annoyed that they haven't beat Boston yet this season. hopefully, tonight will be different.

today has been gloomy as fuck. i don't think the sun has even bothered to fucking show itself yet. it has felt like, especially in my bad back, that it has been raining all day long. i haven't watered the tomatoes, hoping it would fucking rain at some point. these are the days where i wish i had just a little heroin to take the edge off.
the landscapers did a good job yesterday, other than putting the welcome sign in backwards. thankfully, their boss came out this morning and mom told him she wasn't going to pay him until he fixed it. he looked stunned at first and then saw what she was talking about. hopefully, we won't have the problem with weeds anymore in that bed.

so, mom and i got into it last night. she has this very passive aggressive way of taking her pain out on other people. she called me an ungrateful shit last night, which i found pretty amusing. i then said i guess you'll have to find someone else to get your groceries next week. i went to my room after that and didn't see her again until this morning. she of course is acting like last night never happened. for me, it is a reminder of my youth. no matter what i ever did, my mother and father always had a way of letting me know it was never good enough. i can't imagine why i have spent the majority of my life wanting to die.
the Yankees overcame Chapman blowing another save last night to win in the bottom of the ninth, 6-5, over the Royals. the rubber game of the series is this afternoon.

the landscapers are out here today to dig out the one flower bed and change it completely. i guess they are putting rock in with some plants. all i care is they put my bird feeders back where i had them. they are hoping to have it all done today.
i will probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.

my back was killing me this morning. the ice didn't really help, but i knew i had to get the grocery shopping done. i went to Rite Aid first, just to see if they had any baseball cards. they are behind the counter now, like cigarettes. fucking hilarious. i did get a Fairfield box that cost me $5. next to that Rite Aid is the local grocery store i go to. i found what i was looking for there and took all that back home. for shits and giggles, i decided to go to Big Lots since they usually have the Diet Coke cans mom likes on sale. of course, they didn't have any. but, i did stumble upon baseball, football and wrestling cards. i got the one pack of 2018 Topps WWE they had. i got 3 packs of 2021 Topps Heritage and 3 packs of 2021 Score football cards. all of that cost me under $45. so, i got all the cards today for less than $50. after going through everything, i probably have around $200 worth of cards, thanks to some great rookie cards in the Score packs. Kroger was my last stop today. i found everything on the list. i somehow kept it under $130. i made it home in time to watch some of the Euro 2020 games this afternoon. more on that in a bit.
NXT was really good last night.
Deadliest Catch was excellent last night.
Mr. Inbetween was pretty funny last night.
the Yankees left a small village on base last night. of course, they have done that all fucking season. they lost to the Royals, 6-5. hopefully, they will find a way to win tonight.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:
the Detroit Pistons won the NBA Draft lottery last night.
so, the Euro 2020 today was fucking crazy. Sweden defeated Poland, 3-2. Spain defeated Slovakia, 5-0. Germany and Hungary ended 2-2 as did Portugal and France. the round of 16 is now set.
Wales plays Denmark. Italy takes on Austria. Netherlands will play Czech Republic. Belgium plays Portugal. Croatia will play Spain. France will play Switzerland. Sweden will take on Ukraine. and finally, England will play Germany. the first two of those matches will start on Saturday.

i now have to figure out what i'm making for dinner. my mother likes to play this game where she will act like she doesn't care and then not like what i want to make. so lately, i've been forcing her to make the decision.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
i heard back from John at The Rye Whiskey Review on my recent poetry submission. my poems "under a cherry moon", "to be something", "around the wrong thing yet again" and "enough of me" have been accepted for publication.
it was 53 degrees when i got up this morning. so, i turned the AC off and opened up the house a bit. i love when i can do that in the summer, since it is rarely cool in Ohio to say the least.
Monday Night Raw was better last night.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:
I'll Be Gone in the Dark last night was excellent.
yesterday at the Copa America, Uruguay and Chile finished up 1-1 and Argentina defeated Paraguay, 1-0.
at the Euro 2020 yesterday, Austria defeated Ukraine, 1-0. Netherlands defeated North Macedonia, 3-0. Belgium defeated Finland, 2-0. Denmark defeated Russia, 4-1. today, Croatia plays Scotland and England plays Czech Republic. that will mark the end of the group D games.

i need to go eat some lunch and get ready for the Euro 2020 games to start. after those are over, i'll do the trash here and next door.
the house next door is up for sale. i'm really hoping someone under 50 buys it. either that, or someone that isn't white. this town is dying for some fucking diversity.

one of my favorite blogs to write every damn year. if you know me or have read this blog over the years, you know how much i hated my father. so, i raise my glass today to all the good fathers out there and to all the dead ones that were total pieces of shit. the sad thing is, when i am alone or out driving and catch a quick glimpse of myself, i see my father. so, if my life ends in a sudden death, you'll understand why.
i wrote 4 poems yesterday. i really think they are good. i know where my next 12 poems are going to be sent to. i am hoping to get those submissions out tomorrow.
