when the dreams become weird and bitter...

oh, how i love waking up to missed calls from the muse and rejected poems. just how i wanted to start off my Sunday morning.

i heard back from Gordon at Brief Wilderness on the poems i sent back in January and then again in April. he apologized for taking so long but decided to pass on the poems. so, there's another 5 for the unpublished file. i'm tempted to keep these together and get them published as a group somewhere. more on that in August.

i did type up the 5 poems i wrote the other day last night. i really like a few of them. i'm sure they will be a part of the first submissions of August as well.

the New York Yankees split the doubleheader with the Royals yesterday. they lost the first game 10-5. just too many fucking mistakes and yet another shitty start from their ace, Luis Severino. in the second game, the Yankees came from behind late to win 5-4. they will go for the series win this afternoon with their new pitcher J.A. Happ getting the start. the Yankees made another trade last night after the second game of the doubleheader. they traded the human white flag and a minor league pitcher to the Cardinals for a minor league first baseman and more importantly, international pool bonus money. the rumor is they are in the process of signing the #9 international prospect and the money from the Cardinals will go towards that. once again, good business.

Manchester United lost to Liverpool yesterday 4-1. i won't put much stock into the game since most of United's players are still on their World Cup break. that being said, boy it's going to be tough to watch this team early in the season. good god.

ROH was really good last night.

i felt bad for mom yesterday at Meijer. one, she was pooped by the time we got in the store from the parking lot. two, her vision is going bad it seems. she had a hard time focusing on signs and labels. i don't know if she needs new glasses or if her cornea has gotten worse. we did find most of what we were looking for. i think i'll have to go to Menard's for the shower spray refill though.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, the season finale of Total Bellas, Power, Sharp Objects, Succession, Last Week Tonight, The Affair, Who is America? and Our Cartoon President.

i'll probably be on here in the afternoon tomorrow.

i hope everyone had a good Saturday. i hope your Sunday is even better.

you would think the world is ending tomorrow...

the way people were acting in the grocery store this afternoon, you would think the snow they are calling for is actually the end of the world sneaking up on us. the store was out of shit left and right. it was like people lined up this morning to pick through everything. on top of that, it has been raining all fucking day. so you can just imagine the joy i have had today.

on to the poetry news. i sent out 37 poems this morning. 3 each to The Beatnik Cowboy and The Apache Poetry Blog (already heard from); 5 each to Horror Sleaze Trash (already heard from), Brief Wilderness, Duane's PoeTree (already heard from), Synchronized Chaos (already heard from) and Misfit Magazine; 6 poems went to The Record magazine. when i hear back from the rest of these places, i will pass along the verdicts.

NXT was really good last night.

Total Divas was pretty good last night.

The X-Files was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, Life in Pieces and Will & Grace.

i have had a splitting headache since i woke up this morning. i get the feeling i may have to drink myself to sleep tonight.

i'm definitely not going to the basketball game tomorrow night after the latest forecast. we're supposed to get a nice thick layer of ice before we get anywhere from 2 to 6 inches of snow. oh great. you would have no clue it's going to turn to that after today with it in the fucking 50's and rainy.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast this morning. you can check that out by going here: http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2018/1/11/wrestling-podcast-168-dalton-castle

that's all for me kids.
