the day after...

 my sister just left to go back home. she had one of her friends over here for dinner last night. first time i can ever remember having lasagna for Christmas. and amazingly, i liked the seafood lasagna better than the usual lasagna. 

well, the New Orleans Saints got a little revenge on the Vikings yesterday and won 52-33. mostly, it was the Alvin Kamara show. he had 6 rushing touchdowns in the game, which ties a NFL record from 1929. the win clinches the division for the Saints. that's 4 years in a row they have won that. 

Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.

Russia defeated the USA last night, 5-3 at the World Juniors. i'm really hoping the USA can bounce back tonight against Austria.

i did catch some of the NBA games yesterday. i'll probably watch some of that tonight as well.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH and 1917.

so, i got up early this morning to watch Manchester United. i was able to watch it on my phone, that way i wouldn't bother anyone else in the house. United fucking blew two leads in the game and had to settle for a 2-2 draw against Leicester. 

i figure the rest of the day is going to be spent flipping between the NFL, college football, college basketball and the World Juniors hockey tournament.

i did take advantage of a sale last night at Repacked Wax. i got $4 off of 10 packs of cards. i've had some great success with them so far, so i decided to take another swing. i know i need to go out next week and get some more pages and probably another binder for some cards.

i suppose i'll be on here in the morning tomorrow.

i hope everyone enjoys their Boxing Day. 

until tomorrow kids...

Boxing Day

as an American, Boxing Day to me has always meant plenty of soccer games from England. now that i'm older, i understand the holiday more, but i'm still all about the soccer games.

Manchester United fell behind 1-0 early today against Newcastle and i immediately thought, shit, here we go again. thankfully, today was not the same old same old. United scored 3 straight before halftime. all 3 strikers scored the goals. Anthony Martial would add a second in the second half to put United up 4-1. that would be the final score of the game. they desperately needed this victory today.

what Dec. 26th also means to me is the start of the World Juniors tournament for hockey. the tournament this year is in the Czech Republic. team USA played Canada today. the USA blew a 2 goal lead as Canada scored the next 4 goals. the USA worked their way back to even the game at 4. that lasted all of 7 seconds, as Canada scored again and eventually won the game 6-4. it's not the end of the world for the USA, but it makes the road to a gold medal that much harder. i believe they play Germany tomorrow afternoon. that's now a MUST win game.

NXT was really good last night. NXT UK was a recap of 2019 this afternoon.

i did watch plenty of NBA games yesterday.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i might end up doing some writing tonight. hell, i might try getting some sleep. i know, i can hear your laughter from here.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done and make a trip to the bank.

i hope everyone had a great Christmas. there was a little snow left in our neighbor's yard... so that's as close as we got to a white Christmas. i believe the high yesterday was 62. the joys of climate change.

time to get ready for this year and decade to be over soon.

until tomorrow kids.

light on the dysfunction this year...

when i woke up yesterday, it had just started to snow. it was just enough to coat the grass and sidewalks and was gone by 11 in the morning. we ended up having this really good breakfast that mom decided she wanted to try. i think it was like a baked french toast. it was excellent. then we opened presents. i think i really surprised mom with what i got her. i did have a good laugh when my sister realized she forgot one of my presents back at her house. so, i know one thing i will be getting for my birthday (Jan. 21 in case anyone wants to plan ahead). i got some notebooks to write in, some clothes, some music, a couple books and a movie. all in all, it was a good Christmas. my sister went back last night. mom loved that we didn't fight while she was here. oh yeah, here's a good story. so my mother loves the color purple. so, she put some streaks in her hair last night that were purple. it took my sister over 2 hours to even realize it. we are getting a new front and back door today and tomorrow. mom and i are wondering if my sister will even realize it when she comes back here for my birthday.

Smackdown was really good last night.

i did watch a ton of NBA games yesterday. i'm interested to see how long LeBron is going to be out with his groin injury.

the Manchester United game wasn't on television this morning. but, i did follow online and love that they ended up winning today, 3-1. hopefully they can get on a roll here and who knows, maybe they will surprise us all and do some great things this season.

i already did the trash today. it probably won't get picked up until tomorrow, but you never know with these fucks around here.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll watch NXT, NXT UK and 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

the World Junior tournament starts today. the New York Rangers will have 4 players in the tournament, so i'm going to try to keep track of those players. also, i always try to watch the team USA games when i can. i believe they play Slovakia tonight.

i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. i probably need to go to the bank and deposit some of the Christmas money. but, that all depends on how long they are here tomorrow finishing putting in the doors.

i hope everyone had a great Christmas. i hope your Boxing Day has gone well.

until tomorrow kids...

well, hello again...

i'm back from my little Christmas break. everything went well at my sister's house. her friends and their children really seemed to like their presents. i think my sister and mother both liked what i got them. all in all, other than shitty sleeping and way too much time on the toilet, it was a pretty good Christmas.

we did get up there and got everything out of the car by the time the New Orleans Saints game started. that was my plan. so i was pretty damn happy being able to sit down and watch the game on a big screen in my sister's basement and not be disturbed at all. and thankfully, the Saints won and are now going to be in the playoffs. and if they win at Tampa Bay next weekend, they will win the division and host a playoff game.

mom and i got back home last night. in time to put shit away and sit down for a little wrestling.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good and then the last hour of the show happened. Roman Reigns going nuts and destroying Samoa Joe was excellent. and then, the unexpected change of the tag titles. that truly caught me off guard. so, your new tag champs on Raw are Seth Rollins and Jason Jordan. never thought i'd type that in my lifetime.

it was nice to actually get some decent sleep last night. even if it was just a little over 4 hours.

i got up this morning and wrote 8 poems. i wrote those in the new notebook my sister's friends got me for Christmas. i typed those up this afternoon and really like them. that gives me 32 poems for the month. so, that's another goal crossed off.

when Manchester United went down 2-0 in the first half this morning, i was not pleased. when Jesse Lingard scored 2 goals to even the game in the second half, i wasn't pleased either. sure, they got a point out of the game. a game they honestly should have lost because a draw does nothing to teach the team or the management a lesson. they have no fucking chance to win the league. and if they keep playing like this, they will struggle to remain in the top 4 for the rest of the season.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Drop the Mic. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

the World Juniors tournament started today. team USA takes on Denmark tonight in Buffalo. hopefully the boys can defend their gold medal from last year's tournament.

that's pretty much all for me kids. i need to drag my ass out into the cold and get the trash done next door. i believe the wind chill here at the moment is somewhere around 0 degrees. oh joy.

i hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. i hope your Boxing Day went well. and i hope you have a great last week of 2017.
