just love when the mail is here before i wake up...

i got up a little before 10 this morning. i was in the kitchen and noticed one of my neighbors getting mail out of his mailbox. i went down to ours and sure enough, the mail had already been delivered. it never makes any sense anymore. some days it comes before 10 in the morning, other days its 3 or 4 in the afternoon.

I May Destroy You was very good last night.

Fuck That's Delicious was excellent last night.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Deadliest Catch.

i am really hoping Manchester United wins today...

i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.

that's all for me kids.

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands...

daría cualquier cosa por solo un beso

way harder than it needed to be...

i was a little surprised that the Manchester United game was on television today. after watching the game, i almost wish it wouldn't have been as i didn't need that fucking stress. United defeated Norwich 2-1 in extra time to advance to the semifinals of the FA Cup. Harry Maguire scored near the death of extra time to win the game. Norwich was down to 10 men for all of extra time. i would have been beyond pissed if the worst team in the league would have forced them to penalties. oh well, i'll enjoy the alcohol tonight.

Smackdown and 205 Live were pretty good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was good last night. they are off for the next month i believe.

enjoy some music:

i need to vacuum the house and do my laundry, so that's all for me kids.

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

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

ever talk to someone and you just know they are the one?...

every blue moon or so, i'll have a conversation with a female and my heart and mind and gut will all come to an agreement. i've only had it happen 4 times in my entire life. this morning was my 4th. and this woman knows my feelings for her and while being her friend is something i do cherish, i'd give my left arm and probably both of my feet to be more than just a friend. but, like just about every other female in this damn world, she lives nowhere near me, so patience is the only thing i can possibly have during this damn pandemic. i've always joked about dying the moment i find true love. so, if i happen to die anytime soon, at least a few of you will know that this one was the one.

un día mi dulce ángel, estaremos juntos para siempre

NXT was really, really good last night.

i saw that the Premier League is coming back in June. so, it looks like my days of drinking will be starting again soon. joy.

i don't think we got any mail delivered to the house today other than what i ordered from Amazon for my mother's birthday next month. not sure what's up with that.

i will probably be on here tomorrow in the afternoon. i have some pills to pick up (most likely) and god knows what else i might have to buy when i'm out.

i hope everyone is well.

until tomorrow kids.

stay healthy.

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.

i just checked the forecast. 90% chance of rain until 8 AM tomorrow, probably up to another 1.5 inches of rain to fall. fuck me.

i need to go do the trash here and next door, so that's all for me kids.

i'm going to have to start early tomorrow so i'll be on here when i get all my shit done, hopefully in the afternoon.

until tomorrow kids...

welcome to the first weekend of Spring...

we got 2 inches of rain last night. it was in the 60's today but very windy. and of course, since it's Ohio, the temps are going to drop 40 fucking degrees by tomorrow. joy.

i did all of the grocery shopping today at the local grocery store. i was able to find most of what was on the list. it's a little more expensive than Kroger's, but at least i was able to find shit like bread, cheese, tissues, etc. i managed to keep it under $100, so i'm happy with that. i explained to mom last night that we might have to spend a bit more on shit during this pandemic. mostly because capitalism is as fucking evil as possible.
