up too early on a Thursday...

 so, the reason the check engine light was on in the Highlander was due to the same damn reason as three times before. the hose that goes into the air box came loose. as the guy at the dealership told me, that should never happen. so, me made a note in my account and also didn't charge me anything. now, if i could just get that hour back in the waiting room watching fox news. holy shit, no wonder so many people in this country are fucking dumb.

here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:

the Yankees won last night at home against Oakland, 7-3. hopefully, they will win again tonight.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

The Masked Singer was crazy as usual last night.

the season finale of American Horror Story was good last night.

NJPW was very good last night.

AEW was ok at best last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Young Sheldon.

the first round of the NFL Draft is tonight. i imagine i will watch some of that.

i am running on roughly 3 hours of sleep, so at some point i will crash, that's for certain.

i did get 2 poems written today. i was hoping for a lot more than that. but, i can only squeeze so much water out of the rock anymore.

i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

until then...

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.

one of those days where i definitely feel like an old man

 maybe it was when i was looking for the butterscotch chips that mom wanted... maybe it was straining to bend down and get some cheese... fucking one of those days where i feel like an old man. for those that are interested, my doctors appointment went well yesterday. my weight was down, my A1C was down and my blood pressure was very good. so, all of them were pleased that i seem to be headed back in the right direction. the Trulicity has definitely worked so far.

another rainy day...

the rain is still going on. i am hoping it will be ending soon, but i have no clue. i spent most of today in pain. i was able to help mom pay her bills. as soon as i get this done, i have to add up all her stuff for her taxes. and then at some point, i would love to shave and shower tonight.

here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:

the Yankees lost last night at home to the Marlins, 5-2. they are off tonight and start a series tomorrow night at Cleveland.

AEW Dynamite was ok last night. i laughed when i saw the CM Punk footage they were teasing. to release it with no audio makes no sense and it doesn't prove Punk to be a liar like so many were hoping. it would be nice if AEW would realize they are light years away from being on WWE's level, so just improve the product and give the fans a reason to watch. i don't think Tony Kahn has it in him to not be petty.

Abbott Elementary was hilarious last night.

The Masked Singer was crazy as usual.

American Horror Story was fucking nuts last night.

i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her accountant. of course, if she doesn't feel up to it, i will have to take all the paperwork there myself. thankfully, it is in town, so not a far drive.

i need to go get started on dinner.

 so my potential fuck up with my gambling yesterday worked out for the most part for me. plus, i won $12 last night on the Powerball. that means i have won $20 on the last two drawings. that gives me enough to get tickets for the next drawing on Saturday out of my winnings. that's always the goal.

here are your videos for this day of national poetry month:

the New York Yankees won yesterday at Arizona, 6-5 in 11 innings. the fact that they went 6-1 on the road trip to start the season against two of the better teams in baseball, that gives me hope for a great season. they are off today and play tomorrow at home against Toronto.

the New York Rangers won last night at home against the Devils, 4-3. this game had a little of everything; a line brawl to start off and the Rangers 25th come from behind win this season. 

AEW Dynamite was good last night.

a calamity of errors

 you ever have one of those days where if you truly had the chance, you wouldn't mind if death busted down the door and said hello? welcome to my morning. couldn't sleep worth a shit last night. i knocked over a pill bottle and can't fucking find it in my room. apparently, gravity isn't working in here anymore. i must have put the decimal point in the wrong place while making my morning bets. so, i'm truly hoping that wasn't a $100 fuck up this morning. the cherry on top was i almost got ran off the road on the way to the grocery store by a school bus. apparently, they are allowed over the yellow line if they fucking feel like it.

grocery shopping went fine today. my arthritis has been raging, but i am sadly fucking used to it now. i was thinking about it on the way home. i think i have been in some kind of pain for nearly every day of my life since the age of 15. 33 fucking years of it. and people wonder why death always seems to pop up in my mind.

here are your videos for this day of national poetry month:

the New York Yankees lost last night at Arizona, 7-0. well, i didn't think they were going to go undefeated. they are currently tied today 2-2, in the last game of the road trip.

NXT was very good last night. i can't wait for Stand and Deliver this weekend.

Dark Side of the Ring was great last night.

 i swear, anytime i actually might get some sleep, there is something to ruin it. today, the lawn company that does our yard was out here at 9 AM. i could hear them in the back as the phone was ringing. fuck me. i'm pretty sure i got something close to 6 hours of sleep, which might as well be a fucking coma for me. but damn, i needed more and the rain this afternoon proved exactly why i needed more.

i did write 3 poems today while mom was in physical therapy. i typed them up when we got home. i really think i have some very good poems to send out soon.

AEW Dynamite was good last night.

sometimes the days just all bleed together...

 i finally got to sleep last night at 6 AM this morning. between all the shows on Tuesday, doing the dishes and taking a shower. my brain finally decided to tap out at 6 in the morning. at roughly 10:55 the phone rang. that woke me up. now, sadly, i have been running on piss poor sleep in my life for easily the last 40 years. it is part of the reason why i believe i will be dead before i even sniff 60 years old. and knowing that i am 47, i know the ticks on the clock are getting louder. but, i did get all the grocery shopping done today. and i had to make yet another trip to Rite Aid. that story will be a doozy here in a bit. but first...

the USMNT defeated Ghana last night, 4-0. that's more like it boys.

NXT was very good last night.

Inside the NFL was great last night.

both episodes of Welcome to Wrexham were good last night.

grocery shopping went pretty good today. mom had a bunch things on the list that she normally gets on Amazon. so, i knew damn well there was probably no chance of keeping this under $200 today. i was right. still saved over $40. so, in the middle of shopping at Kroger, i got a text message from Rite Aid saying i had a prescription ready. so, after i got all the groceries put away at home, i went to Rite Aid. there was a line 4 cars deep at the drive-thru, so i was hoping it wasn't going to be busy inside as well. thankfully, it wasn't. when the lady got my prescription she realized there was no pills in the bag the prescription was in. whomever filled the prescription left the bottle of pills on a shelf. i watched all this chuckling to myself, wondering how the hell is this company facing bankruptcy... thank god there was no charge for the pills.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get back from taking mom to physical therapy. i know i definitely want to get the blog done before the New Orleans Saints play tomorrow night.

i need to go make dinner, so that's all for me kids.
