always fun going to bed when the sun is coming up...

i went to bed at 7 this morning. i mean it when i tell everyone, my body uses alcohol as fuel. get a little Jack Daniels in me and i can go on for hours like i'm doing cocaine. i've been busy getting my cards better organized, which is taking forever. but, i'm getting there.

yesterday seemed long as fuck, but in a good way...

my sister left in the afternoon yesterday. it was a pretty quiet visit for the most part. i do believe she liked her birthday gifts.

the Yankees came from behind yesterday and swept the Orioles, 3-1. that's 5 victories in a row now. they are off tonight and start a HUGE series at home against Toronto tomorrow.

here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:

here are your NHL highlights from yesterday:

the New Orleans Saints defeated Tampa Bay yesterday, 34-23. the defense looked great yesterday. the offense needs some work. Drew Brees looked like an old man finally. but, they did enough to start the season off with a victory and make Tom Brady look like an even older man than Brees.

the season finale of We Hunt Together was very good.

Love Fraud was good last night. the finale is next week.

Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.

Big Brother was good last night.

Power Book II: Ghost was excellent last night.

Lovecraft Country was fucking amazing last night.

The Vow was very good last night.

Our Cartoon President was hilarious last night.

the preview of The Masked Singer was good last night. it's going to be another crazy season.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Axios, The Third Day and We Are Who We Are. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

i did listen to episode 308 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:
https://omny.fm/shows/notsam-wrestling/in-your-face-notsam-wrestling-308

i had to go out this afternoon and pick up mom's pills from the pharmacy. i decided i'd go and check out some baseball cards at Meijer since i was out. they didn't have much at all. i got a few packs of 2019 Topps Series 1 and some 2019 Score football cards. i got a few good ones, probably worth about as much as i paid for everything. mom wanted me to get her a frozen coke while i was out. thankfully, the machine at Burger King was working today.

i'll probably watch a little of the NHL playoffs tonight. the NBA is off tonight.

i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. i know i'd love to get to bed before morning, that's for sure.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

so now it's snowing, what the @#%$...

so just my fucking luck, last night my sinuses blew up and i'm draining snot like a motherfucker. i guess it's a good thing i have a doctor's appointment on Monday.

the snow started this morning, thankfully after i got the newspaper. holy fuck, maybe the world is coming to an end.

my sister did make it down here. she's going to be here a few hours i think.

Smackdown last night was pretty interesting. i give the WWE credit for doing the show at the performance center with no fans and still making it entertaining.

205 Live was very good last night as well.

Real Time with Bill Maher was great last night.

The Trade was very interesting last night.

High Maintenance was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

i will probably watch that UFC event from Brazil this afternoon. and for some fucking reason, the Mexican league is still playing soccer, so i will probably watch that sometime today as well.

i'm really going to try to either get some more sleep today or get some poems written.

considering i started this day off coughing hard enough that i pissed my pants, there should be plenty of poems that need to get out of my head quickly.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. stay healthy.

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

so i was up to four in the morning figuring out who i was going to send Christmas cards to this year. i got everything mailed out this afternoon. i figure in the next few days or so, they should start arriving. now, all i need to do is wrap gifts and all my Christmas shit is done as far as i'm concerned.

The Voice was really good last night. i have no damn clue who is going home tonight. they are going from 8 to 4.

Monday Night Raw was very good at points and at other points i was flipping over to a shitty football game between the Eagles and Giants.

after i went to the post office, i had to go to the grocery store to get around $250 of pills for both of us. i still have no clue why the doctor's office won't put any refills on this prescription for me. apparently, they like to hear me complain. i picked up a few other things, which lead to a few other things and there was another $60 or so down the drain. that's the tradeoff for cheaper gas i guess.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Masked Singer, The Voice, the season finale of Total Divas and WWE Backstage.

the New York Rangers play at the Los Angeles Kings tonight. so, i'll be up late as fuck once again.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow after mom has her physical therapy.

you could definitely tell a cold front moved through here. winter has arrived once again.

i have trash to go pick up, in the dark. oh joy.

the New York Rangers lost yesterday to Edmonton, 4-1. Kakko did score his first NHL goal, but it was downhill from there for the team.

the biggest upset yesterday in college football was Georgia losing in 2 OT at home to South Carolina.

NJPW was excellent last night.

ROH was good last night.

Austin City Limits was good last night.

Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.

enjoy some music:

as long as mom doesn't have anything pop up tomorrow (regarding her health), i should be on here in the early afternoon i suppose.

ever since mom fell, it feels like i am on call 24/7. i didn't get to bed until 5 AM this morning and only slept in 45 minute intervals. joy.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hope your Sunday is even better.

one of those days...

so, my doctor's appointment was interesting. apparently, my A1C is exactly the same as the last time. not exactly the news i wanted, but the doc decided to wait another 3 months before putting me on another pill for it. i wasn't expecting that. also, i wasn't expecting my liver enzymes to be up as well. so, in two weeks i get to have my blood drawn again to see if the numbers are still up or not. if they are, they will send me to a GI doctor to see what's going on. i know eventually, this is all going to lead to them telling me i can't drink anymore and my shitty response of like that will stop me. of course, it also could be do to the oven being out for a month and eating shit out of the microwave and fast food. basically, i'm going to drink more water for the next two weeks and maybe eat a few more vegetables. if the numbers are still up, fuck it.

the New York Yankees won yesterday to sweep Toronto, 8-7. i didn't think the Yankees were going to come back when they were down 5-0 early in the game. but, when you have the power they have in the lineup (29 straight games with a home run) anything is possible. the Yankees are now off until Saturday when they play Boston over in London.

the USMNT changed their entire team last night and defeated Panama 1-0 to win their group in the Gold Cup. Trinidad & Tobago vs. Guyana finished 1-1 last night.

here are the matchups for the next round:
Haiti vs. Canada, Mexico vs. Costa Rica on Saturday; Jamaica vs. Panama, USA vs. Curacao on Sunday.

in the Women's World Cup today, England defeated Norway 3-0. tomorrow is the most anticipated match of the tournament, France vs. USA.

both episodes of The Wrestlers last night were excellent.

True Justice: Bryan Stevenson's Fight For Equality was amazing last night. i totally agree with the sentiment that we as a nation can't move on until we truly deal with all of our horrific past. from the Native Americans, to slaves, Jim Crow laws, the racial inequality of the justice system, lynchings, etc. this documentary should be required viewing for everyone in this damn country.

NXT and NXT UK were both great last night.

Big Brother was pretty funny last night. i'm not sold on this season just yet, but i know i will be soon.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, two episodes of Lip Sync Battle, the final two episodes of Life in Pieces, Holey Moley, Baskets and Desus & Mero.

i did listen to episode 244 of Notsam Wrestling today. you can find that by going here:
https://soundcloud.com/notsamwrestling/all-ego-ethan-page-notsam

the plan for tomorrow is to get the blog and the grocery shopping done in the morning because of the fucking heat and the USWNT game tomorrow afternoon. anyone who knows this blog knows nothing fucking goes to plan in my life. so, i will hopefully get the blog done first tomorrow. no guarantees as i just looked and saw i have over 200 emails to get to. joy.

until tomorrow kids...

way too sunny for a day in December...

the poet in me needs my winter days fucking dark, gloomy, and a little moody. today there was a bright ass sunshine and a crisp wind. felt more like a cool day of Spring than anything. good thing climate change is a fucking hoax.

i noticed i didn't talk about Pete Holmes: Dirty Clean in the blog yesterday. it completely slipped my mind. i did watch the special. it was good, pretty funny. Pete is an acquired taste, but his take on dogs and cats should make anyone laugh. the shaken baby stuff might need a little sicker mind.

Ray Donovan was really good last night.

Escape at Dannemora was excellent last night.

WWE TLC was really good last night. i'm really happy with the title changes, mostly because it gives them a fresh direction to go in. and i can't wait to see what they are planning between Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch.

Manchester United lost to Liverpool yesterday 3-1. honestly, the game never felt that close for most of it. and to top off the misery, United drew PSG this morning in the Champions League draw. joy.

the New York Rangers lost to Las Vegas yesterday, 4-3 in OT. The King was the only damn reason they were able to get a point out of the game.

the Dayton Flyers lost another damn game yesterday they could have won. they lost 72-67 against Tulsa. they are now 5-5 on the season. once again, i'll never understand why the university decided to accept mediocrity. it's so fucking frustrated when you know the talent is there on the team but the coach isn't able to get it out of them.

to say i was a little pissed by the time wrestling started last night would be an understatement. that's why i was so damn happy that wrestling was good last night.

i did go to the bank this morning to make a deposit. i always get a laugh from the looks i get when i hold the door open for a black person. it's normally shock. that gives me a chuckle.

i did take mom to her appointment with her foot doctor today. after that, we went to lunch. tomorrow is her ear doctor i believe.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and The Voice. i will be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the night.

the New Orleans Saints play tonight at Carolina. given that the Rams lost last night, a win tonight for the Saints will put home field advantage throughout the playoffs one step closer. plus, i just would love to see the Saints win another game on the road and prove they are a complete team.

at least the Sacramento Kings won yesterday.

i got a couple more Christmas cards in the mail today from my aunts.

i need to start wrapping gifts here soon. hard to believe Christmas will be here in 8 days.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i'm at the crossroads...

so, it looks like from my latest lab results, my liver is damaged. all my other levels are fine though. so my doctor wants me to come back in a week and get my blood drawn again. this of course is so he can send me to another doctor so they can tell me to stop drinking. so now i'm at the crossroads of do i tell my doctor not to bother or do i tell him i'm going to be a good boy. decisions, decisions.

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

i wrote 17 poems yesterday while in the waiting room of my mother's new dentist. i typed those up last night. i really like a few of them. i think i'm somewhere near 50 poems or so for this month. i suppose it's time to get some books ready...

i was a little surprised last night when the New Orleans Saints traded up in the NFL Draft. it's obvious they believe they drafted the missing piece to winning a Super Bowl, as they gave up their first round pick for next season in the trade. that being said, i do love the player they picked.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

The Big Bang Theory was very funny last night.

Young Sheldon was excellent last night.

Life in Pieces was very good last night.

Atlanta was fucking great last night.

i did watch some of the NHL and NBA playoffs last night. here are your highlights:

the New York Yankees didn't get a hit yesterday until the 6th inning. i knew they were losing 3-0 when i was walking into the grocery store. when we got done shopping i asked my mom to check the score. she said the Yankees won 4-3 on a walk off home run from Gary Sanchez. i started to chuckle. that's a 4 game sweep of the Twins and the end to an 8-2 homestand. not bad. they start a series tonight out on the west coast against the Angels.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW, Major League Wrestling, Real Time with Bill Maher and Wyatt Cenac's Problem Areas.

i will be watching the Greatest Royal Rumble for most of today on WWE Network.

i will probably watch a little of the NFL Draft tonight, and probably some of the playoffs as well.

it looks like my hope for good weather is going to come to an end tonight. at least i was able to turn off the furnace for a day or so. but, the low will be in the 30's tomorrow night, so i'll have to turn the fucker back on.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

i couldn't find a comfortable spot in my bed to fall asleep until around 4 in the morning. just imagine my joy when the phone rang before 9 AM. so much for catching up on some sleep.

we got around 3 inches of snow. it was a really wet snow that has melted a little by this afternoon. i didn't think we got a newspaper this morning. turns out the fucker was buried in the snow. hopefully the rest will melt by tomorrow afternoon.

Smackdown was really good last night. Daniel Bryan being back is truly fucking awesome. the end of the show and the violence between Kevin, Sami and Daniel has me dreaming of the match those 3 could have at WrestleMania.

205 Live was excellent last night. i can't wait for the title match at WrestleMania between Cedric Alexander and Mustafa Ali. that should be great.

Baskets was hilarious last night. the season finale is next week.

Hate Thy Neighbor was very good last night.

The Voice was very good last night.

The Chris Gethard Show was fucking insane last night. i love that it is back on the air.

the New York Rangers lost to Columbus last night 5-3. it was a good loss as a good number of bad teams won last night. i need the Rangers to be in line for pick number 7 or better in the draft.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and the season finale of The X-Files. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i'm going to try to be on here early tomorrow as mom has a physical therapy appointment in the afternoon. and since we will be south of town and the Toys R Us going out of business sale starts tomorrow... i believe after her therapy we're going to make a stop there before we come home. and i'm sure we'll probably get a late lunch down there as well.

i do hope that the weather was better wherever you may be. of course, if you're on the East coast of the USA, i hope you have a shovel ready.

trying to get everything done at once...

i feel like at times i'm busier than nine cats covering up shit in a windstorm. i figure that's punishment for all the apathy over the years. if my mother did anything right, it was to teach me about choices and consequences. she never did like that i bent towards evil and couldn't give two shits about what happened. it's a good plan if you want to die in your early 20's. that was the plan originally. i have no damn clue what the fuck happened, 20 some years later.

just had a guy out at the house doing the check up on our furnace. nothing is wrong and it is running smoothly, but we should get a new one. you know, since the one here is over 20 years old. mom is going to consider it. i look at it as i have plenty of sweatshirts.

The Voice was pretty good last night. i have no clue who is going home tonight.

i did watch Meth Storm last night on HBO. you talk about a fucking depressing documentary. thank fucking god i don't live in Arkansas.

Monday Night Raw was a bit predictable last night. i really didn't mind as i was flipping channels anyway.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, The Voice and Drop the Mic. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Florida. hopefully the boys can keep the victories rolling.

Manchester United plays this afternoon at Watford. this will be a tricky game. plus, it won't be on television here, so i'm planning on being at the grocery store while the game is on. hopefully that works.

i will eat lunch before i hit the grocery store. i have learned my lesson about shopping for food while hungry.

i will probably send out some poems tomorrow morning. i will be on here before the Dayton Flyers game tomorrow night.

and i did give into a cyber Monday deal last night from WWE. i couldn't pass up a t-shirt and a Funko Pop for under $20. Merry Christmas to me.

revenge in the great white north

if there is one thing i truly hate in sports is when the USA loses to Russia. in basically anything. and i have been frustrated beyond belief at the World Juniors the last 7 years. thankfully, yesterday was the day the USA decided to give Russia a taste of their own medicine. the USA won 3-2 over Russia yesterday to set up a HUGE game against Canada on New Year's Eve. the winner of that game wins the group and the loser gets no worse than 2nd place. that was one of the better victory beers in a long time.

the New York Rangers exploded last night with 4 power play goals (3 of which came from Matt Puempel) and defeated Arizona 6-3. you would have never known the game was tied at 3 with 5 minutes left. that was the first time a Rangers player had 3 power play goals in a game since 1994. maybe that's an omen. the Rangers next play on New Year's Eve in Colorado.

The Pizza Show last night on Viceland was pretty good. i do love me some good Chicago pizza.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be absolutely nothing.

my sister and i are going to the Dayton Flyers basketball game this evening. it starts early since it is on national television (CBS Sports Network). it's the start of the A10 schedule against a very tough La Salle team. hopefully Dayton can get a win.

tomorrow will be a little crazy, and not just because it is New Year's Eve. Manchester United plays in the morning. the USA vs. Canada game in the WJC is in the afternoon. and then Ohio State plays Clemson that evening. i'm not exactly sure when the fuck i'll be on here, but i'm hoping for after the Manchester United game. i will have plenty to get off my chest as it will be the last blog of this god fucking awful year of 2016.

i hope this finds everyone well, fully stocked on booze and ready to fucking blow off some steam.

i generally hate the holidays. too many god damn memories of dysfunctional families in my youth. plus, being molested by a cousin didn't help matters. so with Thanksgiving tomorrow, i was hoping for a nice and quiet day. i woke up this morning to rain and the trash guy leaving the fucking lid open on the trash can. nothing quite like being pissed off and in pain at 8 in the morning.

i'm busy trying to write this while doing laundry for my mom and talking to my sister on the phone. joy.

The Voice last night was good. the person i thought should have been sent home last week got voted off this week. i was a little shocked with whom she was against in the vote, but i think it's more of people voting against Miley more than anything.

Scream Queens was excellent last night.

Smackdown was really good last night. Dean Ambrose had me laughing the entire night. plus, you know it's a bizarre world when James Ellsworth is 3-0 against AJ Styles.

on the DVR tonight will be the Saturday Night Live Thanksgiving Special, Total Divas and Lucha Underground. i'll watch NXT at some point tonight on WWE Network.

tomorrow should be a crazy day, between the football games, Dayton playing Nebraska in a college basketball tournament out in California and Manchester United playing in the Europa League.

and then there's that family shit as well. i figure i will help mom with some of the cooking. we made the ham today. usually my sister will bring food over from next door. and then my sister, mother and i will have a Thanksgiving dinner later in the evening.

i will probably do a little blog in the morning. in case i don't, i hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. safe travels and enjoy the food.

welcome to the 21st day of National Poetry Month. today, i'm shining a light on a great poet and friend, Luis Cuauhtemoc Berriozabal. if you are not familiar with his work, please use these links to get to know it and BUY something. enjoy:

while on the topic of poetry, i finally put pen to paper today with all the shit regarding my father. i haven't typed the three poems up yet, as i really needed to walk away from them for a bit just so i don't let emotion get too involved. as you might imagine, this was a bit of a catharsis. as much as i needed it, it doesn't solve anything really. his death will be the only thing that will cleanse me i suppose.

a little warning, i've been listening to a ton of music here lately, so be prepared.

the New York Rangers once again last night proved why they are the best road team in the NHL. 40 very tight minutes where they built the lead. the last 20 minutes they did bend but did not break. a 2-1 win to go up 2 games to 1 in the series. highlights below:

the New York Yankees pissed away some great pitching last night from CC and lost in Detroit 2-1. hopefully they can do better tonight.

i caught up on all the shows i missed last night this morning/afternoon. Gotham was great. i really can't wait to see how the last two episodes of the season play out. Monday Night Raw was pretty good. it wasn't exactly how i thought they would go into a ppv, but their creative team seems lost anymore. The Voice had two performances that absolutely blew me away:

i'll be interested to see who makes the top 8 tonight.

on the DVR tonight will be Deadliest Catch and whatever late night shows i decide i should get sleep instead of staying up for.

here's this gem from last night:

that's all for me today. the wind is finally starting to settle down here. of course, it almost made it to 60 degrees today. oh well.
