not the way i wanted to start the day...

 so, i didn't get to bed until 4 this morning. i did mom a favor and got the dishes all washed. i was getting up to take a piss when i noticed her bathroom light on. i was going to go in and make a joke about our cycles matching up, etc. when i noticed she was on the floor. i asked her how she fell this time. thankfully, she didn't hit her head. what concerned me the most was we spent a hour of her forgetting how to crawl or move her legs to actually get up. after 30 minutes, i threatened to call the fire department. after a hour, i went through with my threat. now, i know this makes me the asshole son in her eyes, but so be it. they sent three firefighters out here and they got her up. the female helped mom go to the bathroom and get changed. mom refused to go to the hospital, which i understood since she wasn't cut anywhere. it was more than anything, her ego and pride were embarrassed and bruised. i told her after they left, since the precedent has been set, i'm not going to wait as long next time. i need to go get some better lighting for her bathroom as i fully believe this is all due to her shitty eyesight. and of course, since she really had to go, she didn't bother to use her new rollator. this threw my whole morning routine out the window. i thankfully got a little nap in after i had breakfast. that way i wasn't a complete fucking zombie today doing the grocery shopping.

the New York Yankees won last night at Baltimore, 5-4. hopefully tonight they will clinch yet another series victory.

NXT was pretty good last night:

Holey Moley was crazy as usual last night.

Name That Tune was good last night. it was mostly 80's and 90's songs, so i was on fire in this episode.

i should be on here in the morning tomorrow. mom has a physical therapy appointment in the late afternoon tomorrow and i think the Yankees play an early afternoon game. so, i'm going to try to have the blog done before all that gets going tomorrow.

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the fucking shot.

el orgullo te matará más rápido que la mayoría de las cosas

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...
