happy 4th of July...

 i remember this holiday was a fun one for me when i was a kid. fireworks, cookouts, parties, sunshine, etc... but now as an adult, fireworks don't do anything for me. if i would be having a cookout, i would be the one cooking. i haven't been to a party in years. sunshine isn't that big of a deal to me ever since mom got skin cancer. and the true meaning of independence day is lost on so many sheep in this country. and besides that, not everyone is allowed to celebrate this day. which honestly, to see the amount of bigotry and ignorance still in this country in 2022 is beyond fucking depressing.

and speaking of that, i sat down to write yesterday. 2 hours of sitting and looking at a blank page. 2 hours of nothing. so, now i really know i am depressed. i was hoping a shower at 3 in the morning would help. i got out this morning and fed the birds and watered the tomato plants. and yeah, still fucking depressed. so yeah, not exactly the mood i wanted for the 4th of July. 

the Yankees had more errors than hits yesterday. they lost to Cleveland, 2-0. they are off today and start a series in Pittsburgh tomorrow night.

the season finale of The Man Who Fell to Earth was excellent last night.

both episodes of We Hunt Together were good last night. i might just binge the series later this week since there are only 6 episodes.

The Chi was excellent last night.

Flatbush Misdemeanors was pretty funny last night.

Westworld was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Miz and Mrs.

the USWNT plays tonight against Haiti in group play of the CONCACAF women's championship.

i did watch most of the USMNT U-20 game last night against the Dominican Republic. the USA won 6-0 to win the tournament.

the only tradition i have for the 4th of July anymore is watching the hot dog eating contest. i have that on in the background right now.

Joey Chestnut won his 15th title, eating 63 hot dogs. just imagine that bowel movement.

i did listen to episode 402 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

and whatever you are doing today and tonight, i hope you have a wonderful time.

until tomorrow kids...
