even a hot shower didn't help

i knew i had to get up early this morning as mom had a doctor's appointment. so, i was hoping the hot shower i took at 1 in the morning was going to loosen me up and help me sleep. so much for hope. i might have got a couple hours at best. and when i did get up this morning, both of my shoulders and my neck felt like i tried to sleep in a position as close to me sticking my head up my own ass as possible. enjoy that visual.

the doctor's appointment was almost 5 minutes long. he wanted to see how the incision was coming along and to know if mom was in any pain. he really thinks the spot above mom's incision is getting better. so much so, that she doesn't have to go back until August. hopefully by then, the spot will be gone.

the New York Yankees didn't do much of anything yesterday in a 4-1 loss. Aaron Judge hit a home run and that was about it. hopefully they will win this afternoon and actually win a series for the first time in a month.

Smackdown was really good last night. the rap battle between The New Day and The Usos was way better than what i thought it was going to be.

205 Live was really good last night as well.

Deadliest Catch was excellent last night. i could just imagine the number of people watching the show that had no clue about Dutch Harbor being bombed in WWII. or the fact that the Japanese occupied a couple of the islands in Alaska during that time.

i did see some fireworks last night. they really don't do much for me unless i'm high.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Big Brother, Lucha Underground and Snowfall. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i did listen to the latest Jim Norton & Sam Roberts podcast. you can find that by going here:

i did watch the hot dog eating contest yesterday. amazingly, i had some hot dogs for dinner last night.

i absolutely loved the two signings the Sacramento Kings made yesterday. adding veterans George Hill and Zach Randolph to this group of kids should be great.

i will probably end up going to Menards today. i'm tempted to go while the Yankees are playing, seeing that they usually play better when i don't watch. i know i need to get some suet and some other bird food. plus, i think they have some solar lights on sale.

i'll be on here tomorrow before my mother's physical therapy session.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...

so that's what a crisp breeze feels like...

i woke up this morning on the other side of the bed. i guess i'm immune to the pain i feel anymore, but i certainly was tossing and turning all night long. i checked the rain gauge this morning and we had another inch. that's over 2 inches in under 36 hours. misery, my old friend.

mom wanted Taco Bell last night, so i went out in the pouring rain to go get it. part of me believes i'm getting closer to achieving sainthood.

Vice News Tonight was excellent last night. i'm happy that HBO is putting the full episodes up on their YouTube page.

Better Things was fucking hilarious last night. it also reminded me why i stopped going to church.

Fuck, That's Delicious was great last night. the episode ended with the new video from Action Bronson. as soon as i heard the beat, i had to go buy the song.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and High Maintenance.

i'm doing this blog now as i know i'm going to be busy the rest of the day. i need to take a shower, do mom's laundry and go grocery shopping. good times.

if all goes well (can you hear the laughter right now?), i'm going to do some writing tonight.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.
