i had all these plans today. i was having a good morning and was getting ready to go to the post office. i got an ice pack as i wanted to ice my back before i went. and then the plan was to come home and start my laundry. well, apparently i must have got the ice on the right spot as i fell asleep and woke up 4 hours later. holy shit. i saw the time and was stunned. of course, i was sweating, so i looked to see what the temperature was in the house. 77. oh fuck. i shut all the windows and doors and turned the air on. at least my back felt better.
so yeah, i guess tomorrow will be my busy day.
the Yankees won yesterday against the Rangers, 8-7. they start a series tonight on the road at the White Sox. these are games the Yankees have to win. the White Sox fucking suck this year.
i did watch the closing ceremony of the Olympics. it was good. and overall, i thought the Olympics were really good.
Big Brother was good last night.
Industry was fucking great last night.
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 and Name That Tune.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i did catch some of the NASCAR race last night. i wasn't exactly thrilled with the finish since i had money on Denny Hamlin to win the race.
i should be on here sometime tomorrow. kind of depends on if my back hijacks my day again i guess.
i need to go figure out dinner.
until tomorrow kids...
fight the power.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i figured the sun and great weather wouldn't last. and of course, it will be stormy on the day i do my grocery shopping. joy. i did get mom to her appointment with her ear doctor. i wrote one poem while i was there. i was hoping for more but glad i got the one out. i had the opening line for the poem in my head for the last 3 days.
here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:
the New York Rangers won last night at home against Ottawa, 4-0. the playoffs will start for them this weekend. they will play whatever team wins the last playoff spot in the East.
the Yankees lost last night at Toronto, 3-1. hopefully, they will win tonight.
i saw the news last night that Koby Brea will transfer from Dayton for his final year in college basketball. i was a bit sad about it but not shocked. i'm hoping he goes to a big school and gets plenty of exposure and gets to realize his NBA dream.
when i got up at 7:35 this morning, i said to myself, why the fuck am i up this early? i'm guessing my body is just so used to less than 5 hours of sleep, it doesn't remember how to sleep longer than that. joy.
the New York Yankees won yesterday against the Cubs, 6-3.today is the last game before the All-Star break.
i did watch some of the Gold Cup last night. Panama and Mexico both advanced. today, Guatemala and Jamaica face off before the USA plays Canada. here are some highlights from yesterday.
here are some MLS highlights from last night:
AEW Collision was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Righteous Gemstones.
i wrote 3 poems last night for a project i am hoping to be a part of. more on that in the coming weeks.
the USWNT plays Wales today in their sendoff match before the Women's World Cup.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
i don't think it got cold enough out here last night for the patchy frost the weather experts were warning about. at least, when i woke up this morning, i didn't see any damage to any of the new plants. they were enjoying the full sunshine.
the New York Yankees lost last night in Toronto, 3-0, in 10 innings. hopefully, they will win the series tonight.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night.
AEW Dynamite was very good last night.
the season finale of The Masked Singer was good last night. i nailed the last two celebrities left.
i will hopefully have some more poems to type up this afternoon after i get home from mom's physical therapy session.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and the two episode season finale of Young Sheldon.
i will probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.
i know after we get back from mom's physical therapy i need to put out the repellent i got yesterday.
a little Notsam Wrestling bonus episode i am listening to right now:
as i was taking a shower last night at 3:30 AM after shaving, i was trying to come up with something resembling a poem. and the more i tried, the more i realized i had nothing. this might be my first case of writer's block in years. i guess one of these nights it will be time for a little jack daniels and a trip down memory lane to rattle the cages once again.
today has been a busy one for me. i might have got almost 3 hours of sleep last night. i woke up this morning and made some coffee. after checking my emails, i started on breakfast. i told mom i was doing biscuits and gravy as i know she can only have so much of it to fit into her sodium restrictions. and i remembered how she told me about the cold biscuits and gravy she got at the nursing home. she told me after her first bite how much better this was than there. she just got delivered her food for her recovery. it was supposed to come yesterday. i'm happy that it did arrive. even happier i was able to fit the shit in the freezer. now, after i get this done, i need to vacuum the house, make dinner (pork chops, glazed apples and mashed potatoes) and then help mom pay her bills, on time this time.
the New York Rangers played like shit last night and lost at home to Chicago, 5-2. i'm not sure why they fucking suck at home this season.
Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.
i wasn't surprised when Ohio State made the college football playoffs. i figured once USC lost to Utah, the Buckeyes were going to get the #4 seed. they will take on Georgia in the playoffs.
today at the World Cup, France defeated Poland, 3-1. England beat Senegal, 3-0. France vs. England should be a classic when they face each other in the quarterfinals.

on the DVR tonight will be The White Lotus, George & Tammy, Let The Right One In and Ziwe.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, today is the start of the college basketball season. i almost wish the Dayton Flyers weren't playing tonight so i could stay home and watch all the games tonight. Dayton will be playing Illinois-Chicago. Dayton is a 14.5 point favorite. i think they will win, but i wouldn't touch that line in a million years. Dayton is very young this year and i have no clue how they will play against older players at the same level. that being said, this could be a more talented team in a few spots than the team that went 29-2 a few years ago.
the New York Rangers defeated Florida last night, 4-3. that was Florida's first loss in regulation this season. i was a little nervous at the end, as it seemed like the Rangers were inventing new ways to blow a 3rd period lead. but thankfully, Igor stood on his head and the Rangers didn't piss away that 4-0 lead. they are off until Saturday now.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
i did watch some of that crazy ending last night between the Bears and Steelers.
The Voice was great last night. it should be interesting to see who gets cut tonight.
Monday Night Raw was good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT and The Voice.
i need to take mom to her foot doctor today. before i do that, i want to shave and shower. i feel i will probably get the trash picked up before i leave for the game.
i put the ESPN app on my mother's phone yesterday. i figured it would be easier for her to watch the Dayton games on her phone so she doesn't have to mess with the television to find it. most technology these days makes her more anxious than ever. and anxiety has always been a problem for her.
i will be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.
thanks for checking out my latest published poems:
as i was falling asleep last night, i realized i forgot to call in my medications to the pharmacy. so, first thing i did this morning after i took my blood sugar (which always seems to be lower a morning after i drink any whiskey over 100 proof), i called in my medications. and for shits and giggles, i got on the Rite Aid website to see if i could schedule getting a vaccine shot. and holy shit, they actually had appointments available in town next week. so, i made mine and told mom to go make hers. so, we both get our first shot next Tuesday evening.
The Voice was good last night. it was the last night of the blind auditions. now, the battle rounds start.
the series finale of Beartown was excellent last night.
Monday Night Raw was a little up and down for me last night. at least the up parts were really, really good.
the New York Rangers defeated Buffalo last night, 5-3.
the Yankees lost to the Phillies last night, 4-0. today, they are playing the Tigers. it's currently 5-5 in the bottom of the 9th.

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Young Rock, Kenan, Dark Side of the Ring: Confidential and Mayans M.C.
mom scared the shit out of me last night. it was around 2 in the morning and she called for me while in bed and asked me to go get the stuff to check her blood pressure. it was high, all 3 times we took it. she took some Tylenol and then went to sleep. i'm hoping they get her on the pills she needs to be on to get her blood pressure down soon. the way she describes the way her heart feels, i'm not liking what it coming down the road without some new pills soon.
i have to take her to an appointment tomorrow at 8 in the morning. that should be a fresh slice of hell, since neither of us are morning people. but, i hope that will be the last one she needs to see to get on the new medications.
the Yankees and Tigers finished at 5-5.
i need to go pick up the trash here and next door, so that's all for me kids.
when i checked the rain gauge this morning at 10 AM, it was at 3.5 inches of rain. i just checked it again before i started writing this and there's another .4 in it. even if i wanted to go to the bank today, there would be no way for me to get to it given that every road i would have taken would have some section of it under water. joy.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
The Voice was excellent last night. i have no damn clue who is going to win tonight. all 5 of them are deserving.
Songland was really good last night.
Fuck That's Delicious was excellent last night.
Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, the season finale of The Voice, The Masked Singer, Deadliest Catch, Dark Side of the Ring and WWE Backstage.
just once in my life, i would love to be able to sleep in on a Monday that's a fucking holiday. just once.
the New York Yankees lost yesterday 11-7. that ended a pretty shitty homestand against the White Sox and Tigers. you can't go 3-4 against two of the worst teams in baseball and think you still have a chance to win the division. the Yankees start a road trip today in Oakland. this will probably be an early glimpse of the American League wildcard game.
Manchester United won 2-0 yesterday. they should have scored more goals and i could have gone without seeing Rashford pick up that red card, but the result is a good way to go into the international break.
Big Brother was good last night.
Power was fucking excellent last night. i can't wait for the season finale next week.
America to Me was very good last night. i would have killed to have a spoken word program back when i was in high school.
Ballers was pretty good last night.
Insecure was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
i got some corn on the cob and beer brats for Labor Day today. i'm hoping the brats aren't too spicy for mom. i wanted to get something we normally don't have so it wouldn't be the same old shit for a holiday here.
i believe my sister is on a flight home now and i think the muse gets on her flight home in a few hours.
so when i was in the shower yesterday afternoon, i heard something was going on. but, i never heard my mother call for me or anything, so i didn't think much of it. when i got out of the shower, my mother told me that some fat kid got his drone stuck on our roof. i guess mom told the kid to go get his parents and the kid refused. he went across the street instead and the guy that cuts his grass every 3 days got it down for him. i swear, this cul-de-sac is like a shitty episode of Twin Peaks most days.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the bank.
i hope everyone had a great weekend. i hope your Labor Day is a good one.
i get the feeling i'm going to spend most of today icing down my back and figuring out where the next round of poems are going to go.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i woke up this morning with a whole damn poem on my lips right as my eyes opened. that told me i had probably been partly awake for at least 30 minutes or so. and of course, this morning was nothing but rain, thunder and lightning. 1.5 inches of rain. i did type up the poem during that time. yes, i am a glutton for punishment. i do love the poem. it's part dream, part reality of my fear of ever meeting the muse in person.
i believe it was black women in tight jeans day at the grocery store. good thing i shaved before i went i suppose. of course, i was still in enough pain that i didn't enjoy the stunning views as much as i should have.
the New York Yankees were trailing yesterday 3-1 going into the bottom of the ninth. the Yankees then loaded the bases with nobody out. other than a double play, they could have just made solid contact and tied the game with two outs. instead, a first pitch pop up and two strikeouts by swinging at pitches nowhere near the strike zone was how the game ended. i was just looking at the tv mumbling, did any of you fuckers understand a walk would have got a run in there? just fucking awful. so, Tampa won 3-1 and won the series. the Yankees are going to fuck around and either have to play the wild card game on the road or miss the fucking playoffs completely. they start a series tonight at home against Toronto.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
Big Brother went as i expected last night. Rockstar was voted out 5-1. of course, she didn't see it coming. her side of the house has been the dumbest group of players i have seen on Big Brother maybe ever. and i believe they won HOH again last night. and if all i'm seeing is correct, they want to get out one of their own this week. they might as well just hand the money over to Tyler or Brett or Angela at this point.
Snowfall was excellent last night.
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 Random Acts of Flyness.
the New Orleans Saints play tonight at home against the Arizona Cardinals. i'll probably follow the game a little online.
i believe there is another round of storms that are supposed to roll through here tonight. i'm hoping that's not the case, but mother nature rarely fucking listens to me.
i will probably do a little poetry work tonight while watching the shows. i've had a few requests for poems, which is always a nice change of pace for me. instead of being a desperate whore, i'm a requested whore.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow, at least before the Yankees play in the early afternoon.
al final, no somos más que putas
