why i shower in the middle of the night...

 i believe it all really started when i was living out at the farm by myself. i was on such a third shift schedule, that i would be up most of every night. so, every few days around 3 or 4 AM, i would just take a shower. now, the hope has always been that it would help me sleep better. the reality is it never has. last night, i never could find the right water temperature for my back, so i just tried to get it done as quickly as possible. now, when i do find the right water temperature, i try to loosen my back up as much as i can. 

i did write 3 more poems last night. that brings my total to 6 for this month. the goal is usually to write a poem a day at the very least. i have fallen woefully short of that this year. good times.

i did watch plenty of sports yesterday.

the Yankees won game 1 of the doubleheader yesterday, 8-0. they lost game 2 to the Rangers, 9-4. hopefully, they will find a way to win today.

Manchester United lost yesterday against Manchester City. if they would have been clinical, they would have won the Community Shield. oh well.

the USWNT won the gold medal yesterday, beating Brazil, 1-0. first gold for them since 2012.

the USA men's basketball team won the gold yesterday, defeating France, 98-87.

AEW Collision was good last night.

team USA women's basketball won their 8th straight gold medal, defeating France 67-66, this morning.

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Industry and Last Week Tonight.

i will probably watch some of the NASCAR race tonight as well.

i will probably be on here tomorrow while doing my laundry.
