it has been a sunny day here. not hot, so i could actually open up the house and let the light breeze in. these are the days where i would love to fall asleep in the sun for a few hours and truly relax. i did make it to the bank today. i drove around a bit afterwards, just allowing my mind to escape a bit i guess. plus, there is enough construction around here, i have to go all these different ways to everything it seems.
here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:
the Yankees lost yesterday at Cleveland, 8-7, in 10 innings. they start a series tonight at Toronto.
i spent most of yesterday going through some baseball cards that the girl that grew up next to me had as she is moving. i guess her now ex-husband left them behind. she wanted to know if there was anything good in them. there was probably close to a thousand cards, all sports. if they would have been in better shape, there would have been plenty worth some money. i told her i found about 50 of them that she could probably sell and get a little money for. the highlight was definitely the Shaquille O'Neal rookie card.
A Gentleman in Moscow was very good last night.
The Sympathizer was excellent last night.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
here are your NBA highlights from the last day of the regular season:
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and The Voice.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Ottawa. this is the last game of the regular season. if they win, they get everything they played for in the regular season; win the division, win the conference, win the President's Trophy, #1 seed overall in the playoffs. so yeah, i am really hoping they win tonight.
i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her ear doctor.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
so, Rite Aid texted me today to say my prescription was ready. i was hoping it was my test strips to take my blood sugar in the morning but of course, it wasn't. i asked the lady at the pharmacy if my test strips had come in as they texted me on last Thursday and said they were ordering them. she checked and said no. i told her i am down to my last strip so i will be out of them tomorrow morning. she said to check tomorrow to see if they are in and if not, they will come up with something. ah, modern medicine.
the NHL season starts back up today. the New York Rangers will play their first game on Thursday at Buffalo.
Monday Night Raw was very good last night.
The Voice was good last night.
i did catch some of the Monday night football game last night. i was one clanked field goal away from making some money. good times.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be NXT, AEW Dynamite, Inside the NFL, Big Brother, The Voice and Welcome to Wrexham.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.
i wrote 2 poems today while mom was in her physical therapy session. i typed those up when we got home. i feel like i am on a good wave again. thankfully.
i need to figure out dinner and see if i can get the trash out before 3 in the morning.
until tomorrow kids...

i turned off the Manchester United game this morning against Brighton when United got down 2-0. they ended up losing 3-1. joy.
i did hear from a friend this morning that i hadn't heard from in months. i guess i can stop checking for her obituary now.
the Yankees won last night at Pittsburgh, 7-5. they play again tonight.
WWE Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.
AEW Rampage was good last night.
enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be AEW Collision.
my $1 to win $7,000 bet is already fucked. Atletico Madrid lost this morning, so that blows that up. oh well. i still have a college football bet that is $1 to win $89, so i will have that to root for today.
Ohio State plays at home against Western Kentucky this afternoon. i'd love to see a blowout.
i'm sure i will watch plenty of college football today.
i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow, before the NFL games start.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

today has been one of those days where the time change has really caught up to me. i think i actually got some decent sleep for the first time in forever. of course, we're talking about a little more than 5 hours. it has snowed here a couple times today. fuck, it was snowing sideways for about 10 minutes. thankfully, it stopped long enough i could go get the mail out of the mailbox and not have to do it in a mini-blizzard.
i was really hoping the Dayton Flyers were going to win yesterday. they had the lead at halftime against VCU. they came out hot in the second half and pushed the lead to 11 points. sadly, then the usual happened. Anthony Grant got outcoached by a fucking mile. Dayton never makes any fucking adjustments while every other fucking team in college basketball can figure what isn't working and then go to plan b. i guess plan b never exists in Anthony Grant's world. he's been at Dayton for 6 years now and has won absolutely fucking nothing. and i know the year COVID hit Dayton was a top 3 team in the country and was going to have a 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, etc. but, shit happens. Dayton missed their last 15 shots in the game (i haven't seen shooting that bad since i watched elementary school teams 30 fucking years ago) and lost to VCU, 68-56. Holmes and Camara made the all tournament team. Holmes was voted the player of the tournament. first time it has gone to a player on the losing team in nearly twenty years. after the game, Dayton announced that they wouldn't be accepting any invites to the NIT, etc. i laughed as i read they listed injuries as why they wouldn't be playing again this season. i'm sure if they would have won the game against VCU, they would have gone to wherever the NCAA told them to go. i'm guessing the team is going to look completely different next season. the rumors are a handful of players are leaving. i wouldn't be shocked if a few assistant coaches got offers at other schools to either be head coaches, etc. the one thing that won't change is Anthony Grant as head coach. i don't think the athletic director has the balls to fire him like he should. mediocrity is the only thing the fan base desires to be honest. win 20 games, nothing but positive talk about the school, the arena, the fans, etc., get a bid to the NIT since for all the blue hairs that were kids in the 50's, that was the only tournament that mattered. that was also the only time the Dayton Flyers mattered. i'm 99.9% sure i won't be getting season tickets any longer. i'm just so disgusted with this mentality of good enough when everything is in place to be great. except for the head coach. and they are so fucking blindsided by loyalty, since Grant is a grad, he will probably be there until he dies. what a fucking joke.
the New York Rangers lost yesterday at Pittsburgh in OT, 3-2. at least they got a point out of the game.
the New York Knicks won yesterday at the Lakers, 112-108.
here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:
Your Honor was very good last night. i believe the season finale is next week.
the season finale of The Last of Us was great last night. i can't wait for season 2.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw, The Voice and Perry Mason.
i did listen to episode 438 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can listen to that by going here:
the contractor is just about done with the remodel. the bathroom looks so damn different. i'm really hoping mom likes the choices she made. she tends to second guess herself way too much anymore. i think it looks really good.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get back from picking up a prescription at Rite Aid.
until then kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, when the second game of the Yankees doubleheader started last night, i decided to not watch. i looked at my mother and said i guarantee Judge will homer now that i'm not watching. sure enough, Judge hit the third pitch of the game into the left field seats for his 62nd home run of the season. so, at least to me, Aaron Judge is the clean home run champion. it is amazing to think that the top 3 in American League history are all Yankees (Ruth, Maris, Judge). the Yankees won the first game of the doubleheader yesterday, 5-4. they lost the second game, 3-2. they are losing the game today right now, 4-2 in the 8th inning. Judge is finally getting a day off.
NXT was really good last night.
Deadliest Catch was good last night.
The Voice was excellent 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 and 4 episodes of Welcome to Wrexham.
the grocery shopping went ok today. my back decided to tell me to go fuck myself when i was at Kroger. so, bagging my own groceries became quite the chore. on top of that, i had to go to the eye doctor today to give them my mother's glasses. she's been waiting 2 fucking months for her new ones and they finally fucking told her today the lab would like to have the actual frames to put the lenses in. imagine that. i really wish they would have given mom the chance to get new frames, but she was the last appointment of the day and everyone wanted to fucking leave. so, i'm really hoping this speeds up the process of her getting her new glasses.
she has a dental appointment tomorrow morning. that should be fun. i will hopefully be on here before Manchester United plays in the Europa League tomorrow, but in case i'm not, here is a preview of their game in Cyprus.
the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Boston. i'll probably watch a good bit of that.
my back is killing me at the moment, so that's all for me kids.
until tomorrow...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.

as you might imagine, i haven't done much today. check emails and basically ice my back down. rinse and fucking repeat. joy.
the Yankees won last night over the Reds, 7-6, in 10 innings. hopefully, the Yankees win the series tonight.
Big Brother was good last night. my guess is Taylor will be evicted tonight. i'm hoping i'm wrong and there are some hijinks in store. ok, i just checked my Big Brother twitter sources and i have no fucking clue what is going to happen tonight. that should be fun to watch.
AEW was fantastic last night. i am so happy for Keith Lee and Swerve.

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother and The Old Man. i already watched NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock. it was excellent.

the New York Rangers won last night over the Lightning, 3-2. i love that the Rangers snapped that winning streak for Tampa Bay. the series now heads down south for Games 3 and 4. the Rangers are up 2-0 in the series. as much as i would love a sweep, all i really want is the Rangers to find a way to win 2 more games in this series. they haven't been to the Stanley Cup final since 2014.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.
the New York Yankees whipped the Tigers last night, 13-0. hopefully, they will beat them again this afternoon.
AEW Rampage was excellent last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was very good last night.
Pause with Sam Jay was hilarious last night.

nothing on the DVR tonight.
i do plan on watching some hockey and soccer today, most likely. i'll be watching WWE NXT In Your House tonight on Peacock.
i did feed the birds this morning. it is suppose to be a really nice weekend. i've opened up the house again today. hopefully, i will be able to do it tomorrow as well.
i should be on here tomorrow in the morning.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

i'm not really sure why we bother with changing the clocks these days. of course, i always laugh when they say on the news that we're losing a hour of sleep. right.
so, i did get both of my packages yesterday. the postal guy that delivers the mail crammed both in the mailbox. that didn't make me happy. thankfully, the tear in the one package was just to the outside, nothing inside. i did get some pretty good cards yesterday from Walk Off Wax, including my first ever graded card. of course, it had to be of a Red Sox player. i think i got around $50 worth of cards and i paid less than that for the packs, so i was pleased. i went through all the top loaders i got in my other package. mom bought me some more in her Amazon Prime order she did yesterday. so, i should have those on Tuesday.
the New York Yankees won yesterday over the Pirates yesterday, 7-5. they play the Blue Jays today.
the New York Rangers defeated Boston yesterday, 4-0. Panarin was back in the lineup and it certainly showed.
Austin City Limits was good last night. it was the episode with Steve Earle & The Dukes tribute to Guy Clark.
ROH was pretty good last night.

on the DVR tonight will be Batwoman, VICE, the finale of Allen v. Farrow, Last Week Tonight, The Luminaries, Shameless and Desus & Mero. i haven't decided if i'm going to watch the Grammy's tonight or not.
i will probably watch some college basketball today.
Manchester United plays West Ham this afternoon. hopefully, the boys will find a way to get a victory today.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
thanks to everyone that checked out my latest published poem:
it finally started to storm here in the last hour or so. you could feel it building for days. no wonder i have been in pain for the last few days i guess...
i sent out 15 poems today; 5 each to Otoliths, Live Nude Poems and Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.

i was actually feeling pretty good last night and then i could feel the rain creeping in. today, it fucking poured and will be doing so again in a hour or so. joy. i just started my laundry after making a run to the pharmacy to get the prescriptions that were ready. that could have happened hours ago but mom forgot to tell me she was completely out of her muscle relaxers. of course, she tried a guilt trip on me and that doesn't work anymore. i'm cold and bitter in my old age. joy.
Manchester United played much better than i was expecting yesterday. and if Ashley Young wouldn't have fell asleep on defense, United would have got the 3 points they desperately needed. instead, it was a 1-1 draw against Liverpool. hopefully, this will be a little something they can build on for the rest of the season.
the New York Rangers got down 3-0 in the first period yesterday. that ended up being too big of a hole to climb out of as the Rangers lost to Vancouver, 3-2. that's 4 losses in a row. ah, the joys of a young team.
the New Orleans Saints completely dominated the Bears yesterday, defeating them 36-25. honestly, the game was never as close as the score indicates as the Saints took their foot off the gas the last 6 minutes of the game. they are back at home on next Sunday to play Arizona.
Axios was really good last night.
Batwoman was excellent last night.
Watchmen was fucking great last night. i think i will love this series.
The Affair was amazing last night.
the season finale of On Becoming A God in Central Florida was really good last night.

i have my physical therapy evaluation tomorrow afternoon. i will probably do my blog after i get home from that.
pause for laundry break...
ok, i'm back.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
when i got back from getting the pills today, the Orkin guy was at the house. he parked in the middle of the fucking driveway. i was already pissed from having to wait 25 minutes in line for the damn pills. i think he picked up on the vibes pretty fucking quick when i got in the house. of course, the asshole didn't move his truck until he was done. exactly how i wanted to start this week.
that's all for me kids. until tomorrow...
