these are the days...

 my mom asked me last night if i thought she was going to die before spring? how the fuck do i answer that? i replied to her, what do you want to hear? i know why she is depressed. it is coming up on the 23rd anniversary of her second husband's death. she has never stopped grieving that. i never expect her to as i know there is no time table for the grieving process. i also know she is in pain and nothing is working to help her really. what pisses me off is she won't ask for help until she absolutely needs it. and then, will get mad at me for helping her because apparently i don't do it the way she wants me to. i'm trying to keep my cool and remain calm, but i know how i have no patience for this kind of shit. this is where i have to just give her as much space as possible and hope she comes to her fucking senses at some point and just lets me do this shit. it is painfully obvious that this world has past her by now.

now back to reality...

welcome to Sunday boys and girls. yesterday was a very long day for me, mostly because i watched mom struggle all day. first off, i watched her fall in her bedroom basically because she was doing stupid shit. why you would need to answer the phone on a Saturday morning after it had stopped ringing is beyond me. add in that it was dark, she can't see worth a shit and once again, wasn't using her rollator. i do understand that accidents happen. i also understand that most of them are preventable. on top of that, she bitched about her laundry yesterday. i reminded her if she actually needs help, just fucking ask. instead, she likes to play this passive aggressive bullshit that honestly drives me up a fucking wall. so, that was most of my yesterday. good times.

what a Friday night...

 so, last night was a bit crazy for me. i usually will make one big bet a night, like a 20 team parlay or something. more or less, just a shot in the dark that maybe i can get lucky with. now, what i will usually do is also play a round robin with that, just in case i get 1 wrong. that way, i can still make some money. of course, it has never worked out for me, until last night. i noticed that i only had 1 wrong going into the last two soccer games on the bet. both of those were in Mexico. the first one went my way. i watched the second one closely as i was really hoping it would play out the way i wanted. holy shit, it did. i turned a $4 bet into $3,600 by getting 19 out of 20. of course, Ohio had to take some money out of that for taxes. so, when i opened by Draftkings account this morning and saw over $3,500 in my account, i just started to laugh. mom was stunned last night that i could even pull something like that off. hopefully, it won't be the last time i do that.

the Dayton Flyers lost last night at Loyola Chicago, 76-72. i only watched some of the game. it was the usual mess. fall into a big hole and never work your way completely out of it.

Smackdown was excellent last night.

so, i did wake up this morning and watched some of the Manchester United at Everton game. the first half was awful from United. they were down 2-0 at halftime. shockingly, United scored 2 in the second half and the game ended in a 2-2 draw.

the day before the fireworks...

 i think the muscle relaxers really kicked in last night. there is a period of about 6 hours that i have no damn clue what the fuck was going on. all i know is i was having a golf lesson with Tiger Woods and really needed to piss. that was when i woke up and saw that it was damn near 10 AM. i remember going back to bed around 4 AM. good to know drugs still work.

the grocery stores were packed today. i figured as much. i got everything on the grocery list. plus, some extras for the long holiday weekend. my goal was to get the shopping done and be back home before the rain hit. 5 minutes after i pulled in to the garage, it started to pour. i just wish they had already picked up the damn recyclables. of course, as i told my mother they would do, they left the fucking lids open when they did pick them up. nothing like dumping an inch of water out of the can. fuckers.

the Yankees lost last night at home to the Reds, 5-4. this is quickly turning into, yeah, but did Judge homer again? that answer would be yes. he's now at 32 for the season. on pace to hit something like 66 or so.

i did catch a little of the Copa America games last night. Costa Rica defeated Paraguay, 2-1. Brazil and Colombia played a 1-1 draw. that means Colombia wins the group and will play Panama next. Brazil finished second and will take on Uruguay next. that one should be spicy.

NXT was really good last night. Heatwave should be really good on Sunday in Toronto.

Deadliest Catch was good last night.

Hard Knocks Off Season was pretty interesting last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite.

no Euro 2024 or Copa America games today. all that fun will start back up tomorrow night with Argentina vs. Ecuador.

i might watch some of the MLS tonight.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i might try to get the blog done in the morning so i can just do jack shit the rest of the day.

if you are traveling for the Fourth of July, be patient and safe. as always, don't blow off your fucking hand with fireworks. and, don't drink and drive, don't get high and drive, but do drink and and do get high.

 so, i was up at 3 in the morning doing the dishes in the bathtub. i know there is a poem there somewhere. i really wanted to sleep in this morning. i was still up before 9. mom is just now getting out of bed. maybe i'll sleep more as i approach death.

well, let me start off where this left off yesterday.

Manchester United lost 3-0 yesterday at home to Bournemouth. the boys were absolutely pathetic. i don't have much hope for the match on Tuesday at home against Bayern Munich.

i was going to wait to write this blog but i completely forgot that the Dayton Flyers were playing today a little after noon. they are at home against Troy.

so, here we go...

let me get this bullshit out of the way, Manchester United is currently losing at home to Bournemouth, 1-0, at halftime. i stepped away to make my breakfast and came back to my room and United were losing. hopefully that will fucking change in the second half.

Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.

 i'm not sure if it actually made it above 32 degrees today. i only went out once to get the mail. we never got the phone call over the weekend like we were expecting, so the kitchen remodel didn't start today. now, mom's anxiety is through the roof since we have no clue when it will start. good times. once we get the call, we have to clean out the kitchen. and our house isn't exactly big enough to just move the stuff in the kitchen to another room. so, it is going to be a tricky thing to do. good times.

the New Orleans Saints lost yesterday at Atlanta, 24-15. they got over 400 yards of fucking offense and could only get 5 fucking field goals. fuck me.

Ohio State played like they didn't want to lose the game instead of going out there and imposing their will and win the fucking game. 3 years in a row now. how can you destroy every other team in the Big Ten but come up short against the only rival you have and in the biggest game of every fucking season? Ohio State lost 30-24.
