welcome to the weekend...

 so, last night was a long one. i ended up watching all of that concert last night for the FireAid in Los Angeles. it was amazing.

before that, mom and i watched Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage. that was funny.

we also watched The Wild Robot last night as mom has mentioned more than once she wanted to see that. i thought it was ok.

i did go to Kroger today to pick up some pills. we had a dense as fuck fog last night into this morning. thankfully, by the time i went to Kroger it had mostly gone away.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher.

the Dayton Flyers play tonight at Saint Louis. i'm hoping Dayton plays better and actually wins tonight.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after i make a trip to the bank to make a deposit.

i know i will be on here before the New York Rangers play and definitely before i get ready to watch the Royal Rumble tomorrow night.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

finally, January is close to being over. if this month is a sign of things to come, 2025 is going to be a year of chaos, death and a ton of poems being written by me.

until tomorrow kids...

as i age, tragedy hits a little different...

 i went to bed last night before 3 AM. i was up today before 7. as soon as i saw my phone lighting up, i knew there was some updates on the plane crash from last night. as i read the updates, all i could think is people wonder why i don't fly.

death no longer shocks me. it may sadden me, or at times give me a pause. but, i am completely desensitized from death. i suppose it comes from being old enough to know that everyone is going to die. one way or another, no one gets out alive. i can't imagine the feeling of having a child die in a plane crash, or dying with your whole family on the plane. i'm pretty sure, i never want that feeling. i'm bound to write some poems about this. i have no fucking clue what those poems will be like. 

Manchester United won today in Romania, 2-0. they finished in the top 8 of the Europa League, which means they advance right to the knockout round.

AEW Dynamite was ok last night.

Abbott Elementary was very good last night.

Inside the NFL was good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage.

i will probably watch a good portion of that Los Angeles FireAid Benefit Concert tonight.

i need to go to the grocery store tomorrow to pick up some pills, so i should be on here after i get that done.

that's all for me today kids.

until tomorrow.

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

been a long day...

 i always love when i don't get to bed until after 5 in the morning. at least this time, i actually slept past 10. of course, i woke up with the arthritis in my left ankle raging and my right hand was asleep. makes no fucking sense. i didn't get to check my emails until the afternoon. thankfully, i only had 380. 

the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Carolina, 4-0.

the Dayton Flyers lost last night at Saint Bonaventure, 75-53. i didn't watch any of the game and judging by the score, i saved myself plenty of stress.

NXT was very good last night.

St. Denis Medical was hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite, Abbott Elementary and Inside the NFL.

grocery shopping was ok today for the most part. i tried to get everything on the list, but some shit wasn't on sale and i was like, i can go without it for a week or so. at least i kept it under $250 between the two stores.

that being said, i have no fucking clue what i'm making for dinner tonight. mom's got all her issues with her gut again, and i have no damn clue what she can eat, etc.

so, i'm going to go ice my back down and try to figure out a dinner.

i will be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the Europa League.

poetry update...

 i just sent out 11 poems; 3 each to Mad Swirl and Disturb the Universe Magazine; 5 to Lothlorien Poetry Journal. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.

why would i give you money for a new phone...

 i hate when i talk to someone for over a month, we really get to know each other, share pictures, get to feel comfortable, etc. and then, of course, comes the i need to ask you a question. i know by now, that will always involve money. today was the desperate need for a new phone. funny, that was the same bullshit from a different one a few weeks ago. it absolutely seems like i am destined to be alone until i die. i'm not exactly sure who i pissed off or fucked over in a previous life, but i'm sure as fuck paying for it now.so, that was my morning. toss in my bad back aching, and you can imagine what the fuck i feel like today. i was going to spend this afternoon sending out poems. instead, i'm trying to fight off depression. good times.

the Ladies & Gentleman... 50 Years of SNL Music was great last night. if you get the chance to watch it, i highly recommend it.

Monday Night Raw was very good last night.

finally, some normalcy...

 they came to fix the oven today. i guess one of the wires burned out. it was a pretty easy fix and the oven went up to 450 in no time after it was fixed. the repair came with a 90 day warranty, so i'm really hoping this fix lasts for years. so, looks like i will finally make the pizza i was going to have for my birthday last week tonight.

the New York Rangers got punched in the dick yesterday, losing at home to Colorado, 5-4. Colorado scored the winning goal with 15 seconds left in the game. fuck me.

Manchester United won 1-0 yesterday at Fulham. glad they won but shit they need to play better.

i did watch both NFL games yesterday. i was really pulling for Washington and Buffalo to win, so, of course, the Eagles and Chiefs won. fuck me.

the season finale of The Agency last night was fucking great. it perfectly sets up what should be a great season 2.

Dexter Original Sin last night was really good. the ending was one of those oh shit moments.

Manchester United won today at home against Rangers, 2-1, in the Europa League.

the USMNT defeated Costa Rica last night, 3-0.

i forgot to mention yesterday that the new book is definitely a go. i heard from JPR and he loved it. he loves the title i picked for it. now, its just a matter of getting a cover, etc. etc. i'm hoping this will come out sometime in 2025. if so, i will be whoring it around as usual.

poetry update...

 i just sent out 8 poems. 3 to The Beatnik Cowboy and 5 to Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.

a day older than i was yesterday...

 well, today has been interesting. i believe Substack has become a tool of the russian bots. there is no fucking way all these single women think i'm attractive and want to fuck me. hell, even when i thought i was handsome, twenty some fucking years ago, there wasn't that many then either. but, i also want to believe that many one of these are real, an actual fan of my poetry, etc. i know, first world problems...

well, my birthday dinner last night was from Arby's. i am a sucker for their gyros sandwiches. plus, i get some vegetables that way. 

the Dayton Flyers won last night at Duquesne, 82-62.

the New York Rangers won last night at home over Ottawa, 5-0.

i had no clue there was another Hard Knocks episode on last night. it was good.

St. Denis Medical was fucking hilarious last night.

NXT was good last night.

the grocery store was a bit crazy today. mom gave me her insurance card and credit card to pay for her medicine, in case the price didn't go down from the $1,200 it said online. well, they put the new insurance in but couldn't take the price down because the insurance hasn't approved for mom to be on this medicine that she was on under the previous insurance. and, on top of that, mom's credit card got denied, so, i had to put it on mine. i can't imagine why i am in debt. i told mom about her card when i got home. she called and they told her it hadn't been used in 3 weeks, that's why they declined it. even though she bought shit online with it the night before. what a load of horse shit. i did get everything on the list.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Abbott Elementary, Inside the NFL and AEW Dynamite.

the USMNT takes on Costa Rica tonight. hopefully, they will win.

we are having the hardest damn time getting someone to look at our oven. it is amazing that no repair company out here does shit anymore. of course, the population has been dwindling for years and moving east or south. that's where all the damn businesses have gone.

congrats to CC Sabathia, Ichiro Suzuki and Billy Wagner on making the baseball hall of fame last night.

i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the Europa League.

i have no damn clue what we're doing for dinner tonight.

happy birthday to me...

 well, i started off my 49th year on this planet waking up to a leg cramp and listening to mom puke in her bathroom. i guess that pretty much sums up life. i thank everyone for the wishes and i love what mom got me for my birthday (books, a new coat, etc.). i guess you can say Ohio State got me a huge gift last night.

Ohio State defeated Notre Dame, 34-23, to win the national championship last night. 

Monday Night Raw was very good last night.

and now the flipside of my birthday. our oven won't get over 370 degrees. we can still cook on the stovetop. i tried all the troubleshooting last night. nothing worked. so, i put in a call to an appliance repair company today and left a message. i have no damn clue when or if i will get a call back. good times.

so, i'm guessing my birthday meal tonight will be me going to get something at one of the fast food places in town. exactly how i wanted to spend my 49th birthday.

i made a little vow to myself when i went to sleep at 4:45 AM this morning. my goal is to not be sleeping alone on my 50th birthday. now, i know that goes against reality of my life at the moment, but i thought putting it out into the universe couldn't hurt.

 mom has all these plants in the kitchen. she woke up last night after 1 hour of sleep to see how they were and get some heat on out there. i was still up since she has the tendency to sleep walk sometimes. i told her wouldn't it make more sense to just turn the furnace up. thankfully, that logic made sense to her and she went back to sleep. one thing i can say with certainty, there will be no plants in this house once she dies.

i wrote 2 poems last night. anytime i get close to my birthday, the poems start to flow. misery and death never seem to be that far away.

the New York Rangers lost at Montreal last night, 5-4 in OT.

the conference championship games are set in the NFL. the Bills beat the Ravens last night, 27-25. Buffalo will play at the Chiefs for the AFC championship. the Eagles beat the Rams yesterday, 28-22. the Eagles will host the Commanders for the NFC championship.

The Agency was excellent last night. next week is the season finale.

welcome to the last weekend before dystopia becomes normal again...

 i went to the bank this morning to make a deposit. no big deal, there was a little rain but thankfully it wasn't freezing rain. as i was coming out of the bank, i noticed this contractor talking to the police in the parking lot. as i got in the Highlander, the cop was leaving and this old guy comes racing out of the bank. he starts yelling at the contractor, you fucking asshole, you stole money out of my account, i should punch you in the fucking face. i was like, i guess i can wait around for a bit. the old guy was probably in his 70's, the contractor was maybe late 30's. the old guy got into the contractor's van. the contractor got out and got on his phone. i started the Highlander and left, obviously there wasn't going to be the violence i could have another book of poems about. oh well.

i did write 1 poem last night. i have 5 in the unpublished file. i'd love to get another 5 so i can send to a couple different places.
