happy day we put that fucker in the ground day...

 i know most of you are celebrating or pretending to know what Cinco de Mayo is. for me, May 5th as of 9 years ago became the day we put my piece of shit father in the ground. as you can see, time heals all wounds has always been bullshit.


the New York Yankees won yesterday at home against Detroit, 5-3. hopefully, they will get the sweep today.






here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.



here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:



WWE Backlash was excellent yesterday.










our NBC feed went out last night about 35 minutes into Saturday Night Live. so, i had to watch the clips on YouTube last night. i was hoping for a better show as i do love Dua Lipa.





enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be A Gentleman in Moscow, The Sympathizer, The Jinx Part 2 and Last Week Tonight.


the New York Rangers start their series today at home against Carolina. 



i'm sure i will watch some of the Game 7's today in the NBA and NHL playoffs.


i will probably be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays.



i hope your Saturday was great. i hope your Sunday will be even better.


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.

today was a busy one...

 so, i woke up this morning at a decent time but i had a truly strange fucking dream last night. now, i thought i would be dreaming about when the muse texted me last night and said how she can't wait to kick me in the nuts one day, but instead i was having a dream about various neighborhoods i grew up in and then weaving them together with friends from my childhood. it was like The Outsiders meets Goonies meets some random porn and a soundtrack from Ugly Kid Joe. i woke up at 9:05 and was like what the fuck.


so, i went to Rite Aid today to pick up a prescription. after that, i had to go to Compunet to get some blood drawn. i have a doctor's appointment on Friday. i did my good deed for the day and helped another lady pick up this older lady that had fallen. i got home, iced my back and then took mom to the police station to drop off some old drugs. after that, she wanted to go to Dollar Tree to find some shit. she did find a few things there.


the New Orleans Saints won last night, 20-17. should have been a bigger margin of victory but the Saints played prevent defense for the last 2 minutes and of course, gave up a touchdown late.





i did watch a little of the other game last night as the Steelers beat the Browns, 26-22.





Monday Night Raw was good last night.





















enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch, Name That Tune, Inside the NFL and Welcome to Wrexham.


the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Toronto. since the Blue Jays are still playing for something, it will be interesting to see if the Yankees feel like playing the spoiler.


i think mom is making some tuna for dinner tonight. i will probably have to help her.


i need to get the trash picked up and figure out the grocery list for tomorrow.


i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done and after Manchester United plays at Bayern Munich in the Champions League.



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.

i am tired...

 you ever have those moments where the fog never lifts and you realize you haven't been able to get really good sleep for about 30 years now. welcome to my world.


the New York Yankees pissed away the lead yesterday against the Cubs and lost, 7-4. they fired their hitting coach after the game. i wish they would fire a few more coaches and players... it is now the All-Star break. the Yankees will be off until July 14th when they play at Colorado.




the USWNT defeated Wales yesterday, 2-0. they are now off to New Zealand for the Women's World Cup.








the USMNT defeated Canada in a crazy ass game last night. the match finished 2-2 after the 30 minutes of extra time. then the USA won the penalty shootout 3-2. they will play Panama in the semifinals. Mexico will play Jamaica in the other semifinal. 






The Righteous Gemstones was fucking hilarious last night.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw. i doubt will watch much of the home run derby tonight.


i will hopefully get a few poems written today while mom is in physical therapy.


i did listen to episode 455 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:





a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:






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


i hope everyone had a great weekend.

somedays, waking up isn't that easy...

 i really didn't want to get out of bed this morning. i got somewhere around 5 hours of sleep, which is an eternity to me anymore. but, i didn't get any poems written last night. i chose sleep instead. so, i'm very interested to see what i write today while mom is in physical therapy.


the Yankees won again last night, defeating Seattle, 4-2. they will go for the sweep of the series tonight.






AEW Dynamite was really good last night.




Mayans M.C. was very good last night.



i did catch some of the MLS games last night.







enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NJPW.


the NBA Draft is tonight. i will probably watch a good amount of that.


i do hope to get some poems written today. hopefully more than just a couple.


mom has a guy coming here later this afternoon to give us an estimate on putting a dishwasher into the kitchen.


mom gets her injection into her back tomorrow. i will probably be on here after we get home from that.

at least the sun is out...

i know i said i was going to do a new SoundCloud recording today. sometimes life just gets in the fucking way of my creativity. that being said, since insomnia is running my life at the moment, expect something in the middle of the fucking night.

here is your video for this day of National Poetry Month:

and here are a couple links to poems you should be reading:

The Masked Singer was pretty good last night. i have known who the white tiger has been since the first episode of the season.

NXT was really good last night, especially the main event.

AEW was really good last night as well.

i did watch NXT UK this afternoon. it was really good.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Young Sheldon, Total Bellas, Cake, Better Things, Indebted, Desus & Mero and Vice News Tonight.

i'm not really looking forward to grocery shopping tomorrow. the weather is supposed to be pretty nice, which probably means more people than there should be will be out tomorrow. and i'm sure by the time i get to the store, the elderly will have ransacked the fucking place.

i've got 3 checks i need to write tonight to pay down some credit card bills and i know i need to get some writing done and some recording done.

so yeah, that's all for me kids.

i hope everyone is doing well and is staying as healthy as possible.

until tomorrow...

a change in plans...

so, with the title game out in Maui being played at 5 PM tonight, i decided to do the blog this morning so i wouldn't be trying to navigate a clusterfuck this afternoon.

Dayton defeated Virginia Tech last night, 89-62. they will play Kansas today for the championship. Kansas is #4 in the country. if Dayton pulls off this upset, i will be a happy, HAPPY boy.

The Voice was good last night. as usual, the wrong person went home, but i'm used to it by now.

WWE Backstage was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT and AEW.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Carolina.

i believe my sister is going with mom and i to get mom's glasses and the grocery store.

the winds aren't too bad here at the moment, but i do hear a train coming...

i will be on here early tomorrow, hopefully before Manchester United plays in the Europa League.

if you are traveling today, have some patience and stay safe.

until tomorrow kids...

my patience with humanity is running thin...

so i ran out of this medication today, but i figured it wouldn't be a problem because my pharmacy was supposed to have the new prescription ready when it was my next time to take it. silly me. a hour after it was supposed to be ready, i called the pharmacy. after being on hold for 20 minutes, i finally got to speak to someone. i explained what was going on and they said they would have it ready in 30 minutes. this is the drug that helps with my pinched nerve in my neck. so, in about 45 minutes, the phone rang saying it was ready. by this point, agony was setting in. i got up to the pharmacy and of course, had to wait in line. and then, of course, they had to find the medicine they just filled. the other one i was picking up had been ready since Saturday. then, of course, on the way home. i was stuck behind a woman going 40 in a 55. then i nearly hit a girl in the cul-de-sac who wasn't paying attention on her bicycle. it just never fails... good times.

i had this amazing conversation last night with this Mexican princess in Colorado. we probably talked until 4 in the morning. why the fuck is it that everyone i click with lives so damn far away?

the New York Yankees won yesterday at Tampa, 7-1. of course, that dump down there had a power outage in the top of the 9th inning. what a joke. the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Baltimore. hopefully they can keep on winning.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs yesterday:

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs yesterday:

the series finale of Veep last night was fucking hilarious.

Barry was holy shit great last night. that season finale should be crazy.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

Our Cartoon President was great last night.

Billions was really good last night.

The Chi was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and Desus & Mero. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

there are no NBA playoff games tonight. i do plan on watching the NHL playoff game between the Sharks and Blues tonight.

i am loosely keeping track of what is going on in the hockey world championships going on in Slovakia. team USA has won 2 games in a row now. two drinks for me...

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i think i need to get some writing done in the morning. if that happens, i'll be on here after i get some typing done.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

the weather is still gloomy and cold here. of course, by the end of the week it's supposed to be in the upper 70's. joy.

that's all for me kids.

well, that's one way to waste an afternoon...

i have to admit, i didn't expect Manchester United to do well today. and honestly, it was a no-win situation. defeat City and you have handed the Premier League title to fucking Liverpool. lose to City, and you more or less have handed the title to your noisy neighbors. what concerned me the most after 90 minutes was just how fucking far United is behind City in fucking everything. City won 2-0. i'll be slightly shocked if United wins again this season. joy.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

and here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

the New York Yankees tried to piss away a 7-1 lead last night. thankfully, that didn't happen. the Yankees won their 5th game in a row, defeating the Angels, 7-5. hopefully, they can keep on winning with their makeshift AAA lineup more or less. they do get Gary Sanchez back tonight.

The Voice was good last night, though i was sad to see some of my favorites leave the show. of course, i don't know why i ever think a more talented black artist is going to win against a white female when America is voting.

Smackdown was excellent last night. i always love a good Kevin Owens heel turn.

205 Live was really good last night.

Miz & Mrs. was pretty funny last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show was hilarious last night.

Deadliest Catch was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, What We Do in the Shadows and Dark Side of the Ring. i'll watch NXT and Worlds Collide tonight on WWE Network. i did check out NXT UK this afternoon. it was very good.

here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

i do plan on watching another Game 7 tonight in the NHL playoffs. and i will check out some of the NBA playoffs as well.

i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow.

i was up until 5 this morning, chatting with this amazing woman in Colorado that i'd really love to get to know better. of course, she's a bit of an introvert, so this is going to get weird as hell i do believe.

of course, i do love me some weird.

the bones feel like some rain is coming soon, so that's all for me kids.

listening to a beautiful woman snore...

last night was one of those nights where i do hope the world understands the kind of friend i am. the muse went out and got drunk since the power was out at her place. she wanted to know about the weather around midnight. i had no problem letting her know and i told her to let me know when she got home safely. she sent me a message about 30 minutes later and said she was home and drunk. now, this isn't my first rodeo. i told her if she needed to talk, she could call me. about 2 minutes later, she called me on the computer. before too long the room was spinning and she thought she was going to puke. since i love her, i gave her the best advice i could. get something to hold your hair back and puke before you go to sleep. of course, she never puked while i was on the phone with her. 10 minutes after i gave her the advice she fell asleep on her side. i probably listened to her snore for 30 minutes before i woke her up and told her to hang up as i didn't want her to drain her phone with her power being out. look at me, always thinking ahead. she sent me a message this morning saying lol, i was super drunk. no shit.

hopefully the weather in the Carolinas will get better today. the storm is sadly moving at a fucking snail's pace at the moment.

i did write a poem while the muse was sleeping last night. i'll type that up sometime today.

the New York Yankees got a much needed victory last night over Toronto, 11-0. hopefully, they will get another one today.

VICE was really good last night.

NJPW was good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

i did watch Ring Warriors this morning on WGN America. thankfully, i wasn't expecting much. that being said, Saturday morning wrestling certainly reminds me of my youth.

Manchester United plays in a little while at Watford. hopefully the boys can somehow get 3 points on the road today.

Ohio State plays TCU down in Texas tonight where the Dallas Cowboys play. this should be a very good test to see how good Ohio State really is this season. plus, it's the last game of Urban Meyer's suspension.

between all that today i plan on doing my laundry. hopefully i get all of that done before tonight rolls around.

i hope everyone has a great weekend. enjoy your Saturday. call if you need bail money.

i suppose the world wants to think i will actually care...

so, i have been incredibly busy today and i'm doing it all on 3 1/2 hours of sleep. so my best friend, while in the waiting room of her oncologist, decided that's the perfect time to start an argument with me. and apparently, since i said i don't have time for your need to throw a fit, that was all Debbie needed to block me from contacting her. on the day i wire her $200 from the money raised on Gofundme. and i'm the asshole for wondering why my best friend neglects her mental health. and i'm the asshole for helping her find the people in Colorado willing to help her. but don't worry, i guarantee she will tell everyone she did everything on her own. that's fine. i'm not sure when the world will finally understand. i am incapable of feeling any empathy for anyone that decides to burn their fucking bridges with me. so, i do hope she beats cancer. i do hope she gets the help she needs. i do hope she finds housing before she's homeless at the end of the month. it's one thing to be d.i.y. all your life, it's another to be so stubborn that you become a fucking $#@%. i will allow everyone to use their imagination on what word goes there.

imagine that, she just unblocked me.

the New York Yankees scored 4 runs yesterday in the first inning and decided that was enough for the game. thankfully, the bullpen agreed, for the most part. the Yankees got the sweep of Seattle with a 4-3 win. they now start a series tonight in that dump down in Tampa.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Lip Sync Battle was really good last night.

i was happy i watched the entire NBA Draft last night. the Dayton curse is finally over.

now, while the Sacramento Kings didn't select who i wanted, it's not like they didn't select a player that should really help them. if he's the missing piece, i will gladly tell the world i was wrong.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW, Major League Wrestling and Real Time with Bill Maher. i will probably be watching the 1st round of the NHL Draft for most of the night. the New York Rangers have 3 first round picks and they can't fuck this night up if they want to have a quick rebuild.

i was really hoping to listen to the new Nine Inch Nails album i bought on iTunes today. but, when the songs downloaded last night, the only one that had any sound was the first single they put out weeks ago. that will be the last time i pre-order anything i guess. they still haven't got in touch with me to correct the problem.

the grocery store was fucking crazy today. it was a somewhat rainy, somewhat humid as fuck day today. it was warm enough that some of the black women shopping today were in extremely skimpy clothes. i certainly didn't mind, but i did enjoy the look of disdain from all the old white women shopping. i wanted to get some fresh fish, but i didn't want to wait in a line that was about 10 to 12 people deep. and by the time i went, most of the good shit was gone. joy.

here's what has happened in the World Cup since the last blog. France defeated Peru 1-0. Croatia destroyed Argentina 3-0. Brazil scored late to defeat Costa Rica 2-0. Nigeria defeated Iceland 2-0. Switzerland came from behind to beat Serbia 2-1. tomorrow, Belgium takes on Tunisia. South Korea plays Mexico and Germany takes on Sweden.

i will probably be on here sometime in the morning tomorrow.

i hope everyone has a great weekend. i hope everyone has more patience than i do. i hope the alcohol flows freely for you this weekend.

hello stress, my name is...

i will fully admit i am one stubborn motherfucker. and i'm old enough to know there is no fucking point to having an argument with someone who can't remember shit for anything. so, of course it was my fault that my mom told me the wrong days for her upcoming appointments. my instinct is to do exactly what my father used to do... argue to win and always get the last fucking word. that pretty much sums up why i'm still single at 41.

the New York Rangers lost last night in Anaheim 6-3. i think they still need 2 points to clinch a damn playoff spot. The King looked a little rusty but i am fully confident he'll shake that off before the playoffs begin. they play again tomorrow night in San Jose.

Big Little Lies was excellent last night. the finale next week should be amazing.

Girls last night was really good.

Crashing was pretty damn funny last night.

Homeland was really fucking good last night.

Billions was awesome last night. the ending was damn near perfect.

i did watch the Archie Miller press conference today. i suppose it's closure. i have no doubt he'll do a great job at Indiana. i'm now more focused on who the fuck is Dayton going to hire to replace him.

my bones are starting to ache, so i'm guessing it's going to rain tonight.

i have no clue what time i'll be on here tomorrow as i have someplace to drive mom everyday the rest of this week.
