it rained a ton last night. when it stopped for a little bit, i checked our rain gauge. 4 fucking inches. our rain gauge holds 5 inches. when i woke up this morning, it was still lightly raining. i took a weed gummy last night and got close to 5 hours of sleep. i don't want to imagine what i would have got without one in this rain.
the Yankees lost last night at home to the Pirates, 4-2. the magic number to clinch the best record in the American League is now 1. hopefully they will win this afternoon.
WWE Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.
AEW Rampage had one decent match on it last night.
Inside the NFL was good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was excellent last night.

the more i think of it, the more i have come to the conclusion that i am not of this earth. if asking for competence is too much for this world, i seriously need to just become a hermit and never leave the home again.
so, last week i was on Kroger's website and started the process of transferring my prescriptions from the Rite Aid in Brookville to Kroger. i called today to see what was up because none of my prescriptions were showing up at the Kroger website. the guy i was speaking to in the pharmacy told me that no transfers can be done on the website, you have to talk to a person to do that. so, instead of going the fuck off on him and asking why the fuck there is an option for it on the website if it doesn't fucking work, i told him i needed my prescriptions moved over since the Rite Aid in Brookville will be closing. mind you, i run out of Gabapentin by tomorrow. so yeah, i'm not fucking happy.
i popped in a weed gummy this afternoon and it started to hail. i could hear it banging on the roof. just great.
the Yankees pissed away a great comeback victory yesterday at Baltimore, losing 6-5. they are 1 game behind Baltimore in the AL East standings at the All Star break.
Euro 2024 yesterday was good. Spain defeated England, 2-1.
the Copa America was nuts last night. kickoff was delayed over 2 hours because the stadium wasn't expecting a ton of people with no tickets to actually try to get into the building. i suppose no one in America actually knows or dares to understand what happens at these events in South America. as for the game, Argentina defeated Colombia, 1-0 in extra time.
i did get to the bank today before the storms hit. i also went to Big Lots to see if they had any baseball cards. no luck at that one today.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Name That Tune and WWE Monday Night Raw.
a big thank you to everyone that has checked out my latest published poems:
hard to believe today is the last day of June. i went to bed last night before 2 AM. sadly, all that means anymore is i will be up by 6 AM. sure enough. at least my blood sugar was lower. i got the notice in the mail yesterday why the Rybelsus was denied. apparently, just because a drug is unavailable, doesn't mean you can change over to the another drug in the same class. apparently, the insurance is ok with me going without my medicine and just get so bad you have no choice but to go on insulin for the rest of your life. fuck me.
the New York Yankees lost yesterday at Toronto, 9-3. hopefully, they will split the series today.
the Euro 2024 matches yesterday were good. Switzerland defeated Italy 2-0 and Germany beat Denmark 2-0. today England plays Slovakia and Spain takes on Georgia.
i did watch some of the Copa America games last night. Argentina beat Peru 2-0 and Canada and Chile played to a 0-0 draw. that means Argentina and Canada both advance to the knockout rounds. today, Mexico plays Ecuador and Jamaica takes on Venezuela.
AEW Collision was good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Chi and Power Book II: Ghost.
other than soccer, i'm sure i will watch some NASCAR and golf today, all in hopes of getting some more sleep.
i went to Rite Aid yesterday and the pharmacy was closed. so, guess where i'll be going back to today...
i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the bank.
i hope everyone had a good Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

so, let me start off with the most unexpected thing that happened yesterday. if i had known what was going to happen, i would have put more than fifty cents on the game. Manchester United defeated Manchester City yesterday, 2-1, to win the FA Cup. when Kobbie Mainoo scored to make it 2-0, i felt like i was in a fucking dream. Garnacho scored the first goal for United. to have both goals scored by 19 year olds is something that i hope means good things in the future. City scored late but it truly was a day to paint the town red. i have no clue if ETH keeps his job or not. i won't be surprised if they do fire him. hell, they have fired coaches before after winnings titles. if it was his last game as manager, that is probably the best way he could have gone out.
the New York Yankees won last night in San Diego, 4-1. they go for the sweep this afternoon.
WWE King and Queen of the Ring was good yesterday.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA playoffs today, as well as the Indy 500 and probably some of the NASCAR race as well.
we're supposed to have some strong storms come through today, so i imagine i will be on tornado watch as well. good times.
i need to go ice my back down and try to catch a nap before the Rangers play this afternoon.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

i was hoping the Dayton Flyers were going to get off to a great start yesterday against Arizona. silly me. Dayton fell down by 17 yet again. they had a nice 10-0 run to end the half down only 7. they even got it down to 3 in the second half. but, you can't fall down that much to really good teams and continually pull the rabbit out of your ass and win. sadly, Dayton hasn't learned that lesson yet. Arizona won yesterday, 78-68.
the New York Rangers won last night at home against Florida, 4-3, in a shootout.
i did watch a good number of college basketball games yesterday:
Ramy Youssef : More Feelings was fucking hilarious last night.

i think i got a little sleep last night. i was almost too tired to masturbate. almost. when i got up this morning, it was just before Manchester United and Everton was getting ready to play. more on that in a bit.
when Dayton got down 17 to VCU yesterday, i was pissed. thankfully, Dayton calmed down, started getting stops and started making shots. Dayton didn't lead in the game until there was 5 minutes left in the second half. Dayton won last night, 91-86 in OT. Dayton finished the season undefeated at home. VCU will get the 5th seed in the A10 tournament.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both very good last night.
AEW Rampage was good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
Manchester United won 2-0 this morning over Everton. honestly, Everton was the better team for most of the game, but United won two penalties and Bruno and Rashford both scored.

i had to take yet another package back to return for mom today. this time i had to take it to the Dollar General in town for FedEx to pick up tomorrow. i told her i'm getting tired of returning shit that she buys and then decides she doesn't want.
at some point tonight, i need to figure out which poems are going where. if i have any luck, i'll actually get my pain to subside for a bit to do that.
i need to go make dinner so that's all for me kids.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
we had a cold front come through with the storms last night, so it feels like winter again here. joy.
i might watch some of the USMNT tonight against Grenada. hopefully, they will win that game easily, although i know damn well they don't do anything easily.

so, just as i was sitting down to write today's blog, i got the breaking news that Jeff Beck had died. i always thought of Jeff as one of the greatest guitar players alive today. and back in the day where i thought i was going to be a guitar player, i certainly listened to a ton of his music, especially his guitar solos. this news certainly came out of nowhere. rest in peace to one of the greats.
so, the New York Rangers won last night, 4-3, in a shootout at home over Minnesota.
the Dayton Flyers won last night at Fordham, 82-58.

the grocery shopping today wasn't too bad. it was gloomy and rainy all day, so my arthritis was killing me all damn day. Kroger was good until i was trying to check out with only a few lanes open. nothing like your hip and back killing you and waiting 30 minutes to bag your own groceries.
the New York Knicks play tonight at home against the Pacers.

so, around the halftime of the Ohio State game yesterday, i took the second COVID test. i made sure i did it exactly correct this time so i would get a result. and of course, that result was positive. i really thought i was over this shit. of course not. mom tested positive again this morning. she did get moved to a nursing home/physical therapy place not too far from here yesterday. she sounds like she is doing better. hopefully, she will be home soon.
so, i ended up doing a load of laundry last night around 11:30. nothing like laying in bed watching a hockey game and what you thought was going to be a fart ends up being something else completely. so, after a trip to the bathroom, the shower and a couple Imodium pills, i figured i might as well do a load of laundry. and to top everything off of yesterday, i have had a siren noise in my left ear since i woke up yesterday. i decided to Google if Meniere's Disease is hereditary. of course, there is no proof that it is, but there are cases where it has been passed on from adult to child. and having watched my mother struggle with this for years, i cried myself to sleep last night knowing what is coming my way. and yes, i know that is a radical jump to a conclusion, but considering that noise is still in my left ear today, i can only imagine what pain i have coming.
the Dayton Flyers won yesterday against Robert Morris, 60-51. they will next play Wisconsin in the Bahamas the day before Thanksgiving.

i fed the birds this morning. i figured since it is supposed to rain tomorrow, i should put some food out there for them today. feel a little sorry for my neighbor, who parked his SUV outside this morning. i have a feeling that might become target practice for the birds.
the New York Yankees beat Boston yesterday, 4-2. they go for the sweep of the series tonight.
the New York Rangers defeated Ottawa last night, 5-1. they have a legitimate shot at winning the division as they are now tied with Carolina at 100 points. i can't wait to grow the playoff beard. i have a feeling this season i might not be shaving until June.
the USWNT defeated Uzbekistan yesterday, 9-1.
