before another round of storms...

 i was saddened last night when i saw that Val Kilmer had died. one of those sneaky actors that could do anything and was in so many of my favorite movies.

as for this day of National Poetry Month:

the Yankees lost last night at home to Arizona, 7-5. hopefully, they will win tonight.

NXT was very good last night.

St. Denis Medical was pretty funny last night.

Dark Side of the Ring was crazy last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight (weather permitting) will be AEW Dynamite, Abbott Elementary and The Masked Singer.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Minnesota.

the grocery shopping went well today. i saved over $50 on what i got. that always makes mom happy. the pharmacy has my new insurance in the system, so i'm hoping that will help with the prices.

i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to the accountant to get the taxes done.

i'm hoping the weather won't be too bad tonight.

i have no clue what i am doing for dinner tonight.

until tomorrow kids...

before the storms start up again...

 i have been up since 6:45 this morning. Orkin had said they were going to be here at 7. they got here at 9. i could have used that extra sleep, oh well. it was fucking raining most of the morning. they got out all the old squirrel infested insulation and put down a treatment and then the new insulation. in the midst of that, the sun came out and that will be the fuel for the storms tonight. joy. Orkin is all done for now. when they get the guards for the gutters in, they will come out and do those. now, i just hope i don't get any fucking roof damage from the storms tonight. when it is at a near 80% chance for a tornado, you have my attention.

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

the New York Yankees won last night at Arizona, 5-2. they are 5-0 to start the season. hopefully, they will win again tonight.

the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Pittsburgh, 5-2.

The Voice last night was a best of, so i had no need to watch that.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be (weather permitting) NXT, Shogun and Dark Side of the Ring.

i need to figure out what i'm making for dinner tonight. also, i need to get the trash picked up and hopefully, there will be a time when the storms pass and i can actually get the trash down to the curb.

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

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

 i think i got to sleep sometime around 5 this morning. and there i was, up at 8:30, ready to go. i want to believe that a good power nap is a way to survive, but in all honesty, it really is a way to make sure that you don't live past the expiration date.

before i get going on all the wrestling last night, here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

Smackdown was really good last night.

the WWE Hall of Fame ceremonies were excellent last night. it went a little long, but given the career the Undertaker had, i completely understand that he would still be talking right now if he wanted to.

AEW Rampage was very good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.

Back On the Record with Bob Costas was good last night.

i'm going to watch Jerrod Carmichael's comedy special this afternoon.

the New York Rangers lost last night to the fucking Islanders, 3-0. thank god i didn't watch much of that.

NXT Stand & Deliver is today. i am really looking forward to this event.

so, while i was running around today...

 i had no clue what was going on in Washington, D.C. my mother asked me about it as soon as i walked in the door. i guess i know what she was doing all afternoon. i'm not going to be shocked when i hear something in the next few hours about mental illness. whenever this country decides to take it fucking seriously for the first time ever, maybe these random acts of crazy fucking violence will decrease over time.

your poet of the day for National Poetry Month is Ebony Stewart. she is my favorite female poet of all-time. i highly recommend everything she has ever done or will do with her poetry.

the New York Rangers needed OT to defeat Buffalo last night, 3-2. at least they got the 2 points.

NXT UK was really good last night.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Young Sheldon was good last night.

B Positive was pretty funny last night.

The United States of Al was good last night.

Clarice was really good last night.

Cake was weird as fuck as usual.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Hysterical. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on Peacock.

so, first i went to the post office today to take a package of clothing mom had to send back. she's lost so much weight that clothes she bought just a few weeks ago are too big now. after that, i went to the bank. i always love when Alexis is working. to hear a fine ass black woman ask how are you today Mr. Campbell... good times. after that, i went to Big Lots because mom decided at the last minute she wants Diet Coke in the small cans (3 days after she said she wanted it in the plastic bottles). of course, Big Lots had no Diet Coke in the small cans. she then texted me that she wanted a cheese ball for the weekend. so, i had a decision to make. go to Kroger and forgot about trying to find some baseball cards. or... of course i went to go look for the cards first. i had to drive 20 minutes out of my way and thankfully, i did find some baseball cards at Rite Aid. i got 1 Fairfield Box and 2 2021 Topps Series 1 packs. i paid $14 total for everything. i got way more than $14 worth of cards. after that, i drove all the way back to Kroger. i had to get mom's new pills. thankfully, they had the small Diet Coke cans on sale. and i found a cheese ball that had a reasonable amount of sodium in it. i then made the drive home, a couple hours after i left. joy.

i will probably be on here tomorrow before the Yankees play in the afternoon.

i do hope everyone has a great weekend.

if you are looking to buy some baseball cards, i have cards from 1959 to 2021 for sale. let me know what you are looking for. email me at jcampb4593@aol.com. i have very reasonable prices on everything.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

wear your mask.

get the shot.

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.

not exactly how i wanted today to go...

today is one of those days where i want to keep my mind focused on the important things, but my brain has this ability to always focus on the little things that fucking piss me off beyond belief. so, before i get to that rant, here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month.

speaking of poems, i wrote 7 today while mom was getting her injection for her back. i typed those up this afternoon and really like a few of them. these are my first poems of April.

i got that done before i watched Manchester United this afternoon. United started off on the front foot, scoring a goal early and honestly, should have had 2 or 3 more. of course, they couldn't keep that up and eventually Wolves tied the game. 1-1 at halftime. then the Ashley Young shit show started. 2 yellow cards in about 4 minutes or so and then United was a man down for the rest of the game. i thought United played a little better a man down, of course, until Chris Smalling had a fucking own goal to give Wolves the lead. and just like 2 weeks ago in the FA Cup, United lost at Wolves, 2-1. so much for that revenge game. these are the games United has to win if they are going to finish in the top 4. oh well.

the New York Yankees won last night over the Tigers, 3-1. it was nice to get a victory again. hopefully, they can do that again tonight. and hopefully no one else gets injured. they have 9 guys on the injured list already.

the New York Rangers lost to the Devils last night, 4-2.

The Voice was really good last night.

Monday Night Raw was crazy last night. you can definitely tell WrestleMania is this weekend.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Deadliest Catch, Smackdown, Miz & Mrs. and The Jim Jefferies Show. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

mom's injection went well today, other than the fact that we got there 15 minutes early and she didn't go back until 30 minutes after her appointment. i wanted to get there early since we ended up being late to her doctor's appointment yesterday. the doctor didn't mind, but the receptionists wanted to make a stink about it. and people wonder why i hate them.

after her appointment yesterday, we had lunch at Cracker Barrel. i don't think i had been to a Cracker Barrel in probably 20 years. the food was good and honestly, i don't think the place had changed much over the years.

i think tomorrow will be the day i go to the bank and pick up my prescriptions at the grocery store. it's the only day this week mom doesn't have any appointments.

i'll probably be on here in the afternoon i suppose.

Google+ went away today. if any of you that used to follow me on there and still want to follow me, you can find me now here: https://mewe.com/i/jjcampbell

until tomorrow kids...
