the entire world should be thankful i have patience

 so, i overslept this morning and got up at 9. i wanted to be up earlier, just in case the guys got here early for the kitchen. thankfully, they got here around 10. mom overslept as well. one of the guys involved in the project lives in town, so that will be rather convenient. he's also a New Orleans Saints fan, so that is rare around here. i think i now know 3 Saints fans in this town. they got all the countertops measured and were gone in about a hour. i then had to run up to Kroger because mom forgot to tell me she had pills ready to be picked up. i got back in plenty of time to get mom to her doctor's appointment. now, when my mother is stressed or anxious, she becomes a chatty Kathy. the doctor's appointment was at 2:20. we got out of there at 3:53. and i reminded mom this whole appointment was to know her A1C and go over her bloodwork. did she discuss either of those with the doctor? nope. this is the kind of shit that truly tests my patience. then, after the appointment, she wanted a frozen coke. 5 minutes later, she didn't want one, just wanted to go home. 3 minutes after that, she changed her mind again and told me to go to Burger King. she got a frozen coke and a Whopper Jr. she thanked me on the way home for being patient and knows she is driving me up a wall. i laughed and said i believe this is why you said i would make a great wife for someone someday. she always hates that i remember every fucking time she emasculated me and pissed me off to the nth degree. welcome to my life.


here are your NBA highlights from last night.




AEW Dynamite was very good last night.








The Masked Singer was crazy as usual last night.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be the season finale of Big Brother and NJPW.


i might watch some of the Bears vs. Panthers tonight on Amazon Prime.



the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Minnesota.




i should be on here tomorrow after mom has her DEXA Scan done. hopefully, i will get a few poems written while that is being done.


i need to figure out dinner and get ready for the evening.

not quite the death of democracy...

 considering i live in a state that is becoming more and more bat shit crazy with right wing bullshit, i took a fair amount of glee at watching all the fucking nut jobs in other states lose. now sure, the Republicans will have control of the House, which means there will be constant investigations into all the stupid shit that they don't like that Biden has done, you know like helping fund Ukraine against an unprovoked Russian invasion, leaving Afghanistan (they will hate when they realize he was using Trump's plan to do it), and of course, have to investigate the crack head son of the President. i remember when the Republican party was actually about fiscal sanity, pro business, etc. now, it is nothing but whatever conspiracy theory gets fucking clicks. hell, i still remember the t-shirts from the right saying they would rather be Russian than a Democrat. that made me laugh as i know those dumb shits have no fucking clue what life in Russia is like. but, it looks like the Senate will still be a 50/50 split. i'm sure the Republicans loved spending all that money for a red wave that amounted to jack shit. as for Ohio, i feel real sorry for Tim Ryan. he could have easily beaten J.D. Vance if the Democratic party would have supported him. and to hear J.D. Vance talk about how he wants to do all this shit for Ohio... coming from the same piece of shit that made millions off of sending jobs from Ohio to foreign countries. now, he wants to bring them back? horse shit. two more years of Congress not getting shit done, and then the shit show of 2024 will be upon us. good times.


the New York Rangers pissed away a 2 goal lead entering the 3rd period last night, losing to the fucking Islanders, 4-3. that was the kind of loss that keeps me up until 4 or 5 in the morning.









NXT was excellent last night.








Deadliest Catch was good last night.


Tales From The Territories was great last night.


enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:










on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, AEW Dynamite, The Masked Singer, two episodes of American Horror Story: NYC and Hard Knocks in Season.


the grocery shopping went pretty well today. of course, i got a text from Rite Aid that my prescriptions were ready. so, after i got all the groceries put away, i went there. i told my mother, i would hopefully be home before 5 PM. i left the house at 4:15. i got home at 4:53. what a shit show.


i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her foot doctor.


i did get to see the USMNT selection show for the World Cup. i was a little surprised at some of the selections. 






the Knicks play tonight at the Nets. i'll watch some of that.


Manchester United plays tomorrow at home against Aston Villa in the League Cup. i will hopefully get to see some of that tomorrow.



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


until tomorrow...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

the start of college basketball...

 so, today is the start of the college basketball season. i almost wish the Dayton Flyers weren't playing tonight so i could stay home and watch all the games tonight. Dayton will be playing Illinois-Chicago. Dayton is a 14.5 point favorite. i think they will win, but i wouldn't touch that line in a million years. Dayton is very young this year and i have no clue how they will play against older players at the same level. that being said, this could be a more talented team in a few spots than the team that went 29-2 a few years ago.





the New York Rangers defeated Florida last night, 4-3. that was Florida's first loss in regulation this season. i was a little nervous at the end, as it seemed like the Rangers were inventing new ways to blow a 3rd period lead. but thankfully, Igor stood on his head and the Rangers didn't piss away that 4-0 lead. they are off until Saturday now.







here are your NBA highlights from last night:



i did watch some of that crazy ending last night between the Bears and Steelers.





The Voice was great last night. it should be interesting to see who gets cut tonight.








Monday Night Raw was good last night.






enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT and The Voice.


i need to take mom to her foot doctor today. before i do that, i want to shave and shower. i feel i will probably get the trash picked up before i leave for the game.


i put the ESPN app on my mother's phone yesterday. i figured it would be easier for her to watch the Dayton games on her phone so she doesn't have to mess with the television to find it. most technology these days makes her more anxious than ever. and anxiety has always been a problem for her.


i will be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.


thanks for checking out my latest published poems:

you would think a blizzard is coming...

i pulled into the parking lot at the grocery store this afternoon and you would have thought there was a blizzard coming. i had to drive around for a few minutes just to find a damn spot. i got inside and there was 4 carts left in there. jesus christ. thankfully, i didn't have much to get. sure, it's colder now and there was a few snow showers this morning, but, it's fucking Ohio. that's called normal.

i thought i did pretty good today considering i had to get gas, go to 2 different grocery stores and the local drug store. i think after all 4 places, i kept everything under $130. i'm sure mom appreciates that.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

The Big Bang Theory was hilarious last night.

Young Sheldon was great last night.

The Voice was basically a recap show to set everyone up for the live shows next week.

i did watch We Are Not Done Yet last night on HBO. i was very interested to see how the veterans incorporated poetry into their battle with PTSD. it was a very good show.

i did love that the Steelers destroyed the Panthers last night, 52-21. now, if the Saints win on Sunday, they will have a 2 game lead in the division.

i did watch a good portion of Portland vs. Seattle last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW, Real Time with Bill Maher, Room 104 and Mike Judge Presents: Tales From the Tour Bus.

i did watch the first episode of season 2 of Tales From the Tour Bus earlier today. i completely forgot it started back up last week. tonight's episode is about Rick James.

the New York Rangers play tonight in Detroit. hopefully they can continue their winning streak.

i will be on here early tomorrow, probably in the morning i suppose. Ohio State plays at noon and then Dayton plays tomorrow night.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

you ever dream about a flying pig armed with a machine gun?

i gave up trying to understand my dreams years ago. i learned that if you do a better job of remembering them, the poems will become easier and easier. so there, i have given a secret away.

the New York Rangers won again last night, defeating Boston 4-2. that's 5 wins in a row for them. they play again at home on Saturday afternoon against Edmonton.

You're the Worst was really good last night. the two part season finale is next week.

Total Divas was pretty good last night.

NXT was pretty good as well last night. i can't wait for Takeover: War Games. it should be amazing.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Chris Gethard Show, Better Things, Gotham, The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, Life in Pieces and Fuck, That's Delicious Classics.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast this morning. you can find that by going here:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/sam-roberts-wrestling-podcast/id934576040?mt=2

mom ordered what i thought i was going to have to take her shopping for over the internet yesterday. so, now i just have the grocery shopping today to do. i'm waiting for them to call and say they have my prescriptions ready before i go. i don't like making more than one trip somewhere if i don't have to.

i'll probably be on here early tomorrow. mom has a doctor's appointment in the afternoon and then the Dayton Flyers play Ball State tomorrow night. if her appointment runs long, we might end up having to go right from the doctor's office to the game. i really hope that isn't the case.

have a good one kids.

and you thought i was joking...

remember when the Cubs won the World Series and i said welcome to the apocalypse, the world is coming to an end. and you thought i was joking.

truthfully speaking, i didn't like any of the candidates running for President. the only person involved in government that comes close to my way of thinking is Bernie Sanders. but i never truly thought this country would be so fucking stupid. i forget who said it first, but it's a statement that i have remembered since i was in high school.

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE IGNORANCE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

i feel sorry for my sister and my mother. and honestly any woman in this country that actually thinks this country believes they are equals to men. it's painfully obvious that so many in this country don't think that way or choose to never believe it. the number of white women that gleefully just elected a person who brags about sexual assault is not only confusing to me but quite frankly, fucking disgusting. i wonder if these will be the same women bitching when Roe v. Wade gets overturned or when there suddenly are no women on the Supreme Court anymore. but, part of the blame deserves to be on Hillary as well. only someone in the elite of this country could actually believe that you deserve to be the President because it is your turn. this should signal the time for the entire Clinton part of the Democratic party to go away.

also, the news media, as i have told many of you for years, never tells you the truth. Ray Bradbury told an audience i was in years ago to never listen or watch the local or national news. go find the truth for yourself.

as someone who went to a black high school, i learned very quickly in life that being a racist would get me killed. it's appalling to me that so many fucking whites in this country didn't get the chance to learn that lesson. and now, they feel like they have a voice at the table since their leader just got elected. how the fuck did people actually believe that racism ended when Obama got elected? i'll be shocked if the KKK doesn't ask for a meeting at the White House at some point in the next 4 years.

lastly, i hope the people that voted for Trump do realize, you did not elect a President, you elected a King. politicians govern, kings rule. and Trump will rule, trust me. he has NEVER given two shits about the poor at anytime in his fucking life. anything coming out of his mouth about it now is complete and utter bullshit. what is even worse is the Vice President Elect. here is a man that believes women should have the rights they had in the 1800's and nothing more. and i'm sure the religious right is thrilled that he is there to push their backward ass agenda for this country. so many poor white people truly believe that a rich old white guy is going to give them the magic ticket one day. this is how people get rich you dumb fucks, taking advantage of you stupid people.

and people have the fucking gall to ask me why i don't vote. this is exactly why. i do not want to be associated with the stupid fucks who think their civic duty is to pick the lesser of two evils.

now i must figure out which pro marijuana state i am moving to or find some really cheap property in Costa Rica and never come back.

----

add on top of that bullshit last night, the New York Rangers lost to a Vancouver team that had lost 9 games in a row, 5-3. just one of those nights where nothing went well for the boys. they couldn't get anything going and they paid for it. they are off until the weekend.

i did see that the Sacramento Kings won again last night. that's 2 in a row now.

Smackdown was pretty good last night. it at least provided me a decent distraction from the election.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lip Sync Battle, American Horror Story, You're The Worst, Any Given Wednesday, Total Bellas and Lucha Underground. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i heard back on my poetry submission from Easy Street yesterday. they decided to pass on the 5 poems i sent. i did appreciate the comments on why the poems weren't accepted. that definitely will be remembered.

i wrote 5 poems this afternoon after a quick trip to the grocery store to get mom's medications. surprisingly, only 2 were about the election. i've got a stack to send out here in a few days probably.

that's all for me today. i've got to figure out what i'm going to do for health insurance when the Republicans kill Obamacare and replace it with what we used to have. especially considering i am a Type 2 diabetic now, it will be interesting.

close, but not quite there

so i had a crazy afternoon. between the doctor, Menards, the grocery store, being out way longer than i expected, not eating lunch and getting more miserable when it started to rain, today will be one of those fucking days.

so i guess i'm not quite a diabetic but i'm closer than my doctor is comfortable with. what sticks out more from the visit to the doctor was the smell of shit as soon as i walked in the door, a small kid coughing out his lungs and not covering his mouth, the new nurse with pants on a little too tight (unless she was one of these white girls that played soccer while growing up), and having to wait in the room for the squad to leave with the person from the room next to mine. good times. he's giving me a pill to take each morning that should help my numbers go down. if that does happen, he'll take me off of the pill. if not, as he told me i am predisposed to having diabetes because of genetics, he will leave me on the pill. he was pleased that i have given up white bread. i go back in 3 months.

the new nurse caught me off guard. i was prepared for the old one, especially since i got the haircut. plus, i was going to tell her about the poem i wrote about her, etc. etc. figures, i work up the courage and i'm all ready and (play some sad music) nothing happens. the new one was a little touchy though when giving me my flu shot. of course, she had a wedding ring on.

mom and i went up to Menard's to get a few things which of course turns into me getting ridiculous shit for the front yard as i work to improve this sophisticated white trash utopia of mine. we also needed some food for the birds.

after that, it was off to the grocery store. for some fucking reason, they won't have my medicine ready until 3 pm tomorrow. i suppose they don't know that i'm supposed to take this pill before i eat breakfast each morning. i figured that was a great start to this day in the grocery store. plus, we had to shop for next door as well. thankfully, they didn't have much as last time. i didn't notice many unwritten poems while in the store. we pulled back into the driveway nearly 4 1/2 hours after we left it. needless to say, i needed to eat something quickly. i got the groceries put away and made a quick sandwich. i figured that will hold me over until dinner.

the shows last night were good. Homeland was excellent. another great ending. The Affair was superb last night. that show is getting better each week. Last Week Tonight was great as well:

i lost my fantasy hockey yesterday 6-3-1. i'm at the point now where i'm just like fuck it. fantasy football didn't work out much better for me. it looks like i'm going to win one of my matches and lose the other 2. good times.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and Gotham. i will be watching Monday Night Raw and Monday Night Football. i'll also check out WWE Breaking Ground on WWE Network tonight.

not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. all i really want to do is get a good night of sleep or just fucking die already. i know my luck. neither will happen anytime soon.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. if you didn't, i really don't give a shit. i'm too busy with own crumbling empire at the moment.

bitter realities...

as i was sitting alone at the Dayton Flyers game, and by alone, i mean i was the only fucking person sitting in the row 3 minutes before the game was getting ready to start, i quickly had a realization that this is exactly how my future is going to be. not a pretty sight, but a realistic one. with that being said, the guy who almost let me get up before he walked in front of me and the kid constantly kicking my seat from behind me is god openly laughing at me. it all makes sense now.

as for the game, it was a sloppy foul fest that resulted in Dayton beating Southern Indiana 96-66. hopefully that's a sign they won't play down to their competition this season. but, i'd love to see the defense get much, much better. they play their first game of the regular season on Friday.

let's get the poetry news out of the way. in the past 12 hours i have heard back from Nerve Cowboy, Pyrokinection and Napalm and Novocain on my poetry submissions from April (NC) and October. all 11 poems have been passed on. i suppose there is my rotten cherry to top off this weekend. well, i suddenly have a new batch of poems to send out.

the New York Rangers lost last night 5-4 to Toronto. thankfully, i didn't see any of the game. they play again tonight against Edmonton at home.

i did get home in time to watch most of the second half of the Ohio State game. to say i was surprised would be a mild understatement. Ohio State whipped Michigan State on the ROAD 49-37. maybe the Buckeyes are ready for the big time once again. i truly enjoyed that victory beer.

i did watch some boxing last night. it was more like watching the elderly get beat for 12 rounds. plus, i stayed up and watched an excellent new episode of ROH. i would love to see them get a big tv deal and really get the exposure they deserve.

Manchester United won 1-0 yesterday against Crystal Palace. Juan Mata scored the winner in the second half. i'd love to say the boys played great but they didn't. of course, with all the damn injuries they have i'm just pleased they got the 3 points for the win.

today is my usual clusterfuck. the New Orleans Saints play in about 45 minutes against the 49ers. i picked against them once again hoping they will win. it's worked the last 2 times. after the first quarter or so, i have to go with my mother and sister to look at houses. needless to say, i'm not happy about that. luckily we're driving separately so you can take a wild guess who will be leaving early. the Rangers play around 6 tonight so i'll get to watch most of that before the Sunday night shows start. The Newsroom starts its final season tonight on HBO. i love that show. also tonight, i believe the season finale of Last Week Tonight airs. over on Showtime i'll be watching Homeland and The Affair. yet another late night for me.

on top of all that, i'm going to try to keep track of my fantasy football and hockey teams. good times. hockey is going pretty good for me this week. as for football, at least i don't have many injuries to worry about this week.

i have fed the cats and the trash is picked up. of course, my back is killing me from cleaning the kitty litter. could that be the excuse that gets me out of looking at houses today? find out tomorrow...

hope everyone is having a good weekend. my mother is improving, thanks for asking. thanks for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.
