one of those days...

 well, there was just enough rain in the area today that agony was the better word for pain. i feel like i didn't sleep at all, even though i know i did. i did ice my back down, that helped some. these are the days where i need a tub filled ice and i can just spend a few hours in it. or maybe Santa will bring me a morphine drip this Christmas. fingers crossed.

so, one of my favorite female poets contacted me last night and wants to do a little project with me. that certainly got the creative juices flowing. so, i have 10 poems to send her later today. i have wanted to work with her for years, so i'm really happy this creation is beginning.

the Dayton Flyers lost last night in the championship game down in Charleston to Houston, 69-55. at least they did get two quality wins down there. that should help build that tournament resume.

i did watch a few NFL games yesterday:

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

Shining Vale was hilarious last night.

Fellow Travelers was really good last night.

The Curse was great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and The Voice.

the New York Rangers play tonight at Dallas.

i will keep an eye on the NFL game tonight between the Eagles and Chiefs.

the USMNT plays tonight at Trinidad & Tobago. hopefully they will expand on the 3-0 lead they have going into this game and easily qualify for the 2024 Copa America.

i should be on here tomorrow after mom has her physical therapy.

one thing i have noticed over the years is how the holidays normally will depress the shit out of me. as much as i have tried to eliminate the negativity in my life to help lift my mood, it doesn't always work that way. i keep playing something the muse said to me last night over and over in my head. this also reminds me why i am a poet. if i didn't know how to string the words together to make sense of this shit, i would be so frustrated that death would be the only option left.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

uno de esos días

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...
