history was made...

 i did watch Alex Ovechkin break Wayne Gretzky's goal scoring record yesterday when he scored his 895th goal. to me, the best part of the game was that the Capitals lost, 4-1. 

the Yankees lost at the Pirates yesterday, 5-4, in 11 innings. they start a series this afternoon at Detroit.

the season finale of The White Lotus was crazy last night.

The Righteous Gemstones was hilarious last night.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

Yellowjackets was fucking insane last night. the season finale next week should be bonkers.

beyond dead to me now...

 so, my dead to me sister filed a formal complaint about my mother's doctor. now, the hilarious thing is, they had no fucking clue who was her mother and wouldn't have figured it out until mom called this morning. and mom is doing the smart thing, she is making sure my dead to me sister will never have any access to her healthcare ever again. i will have to take mom to the doctor's office later today to fill out that paperwork. so, my dead to me sister did text mom yesterday to wish her happy mother's day and then proceeded to bitch mom out and let her know that she was removing mom and myself from her life insurance and will, etc. so, there are two more calls that mom has to make to get that shit changed on her end as well. when mom told me about the life insurance, it all clicked in for me. my sister has achieved the dream my father never could. she will now have no need to ever think about us ever again. she will just think about the ones she wants to think about. i hope my dead to me sister enjoys that lonely experience she has coming. she isn't cut out for it and will learn the hard lesson... when i burn a fucking bridge down, it stays the fuck down.

the New York Yankees spilt their doubleheader yesterday against the Texas Rangers. they won the first game, 2-1. they lost the second game, 4-2. the finale of the series will be this afternoon.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

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

i don't think my dead to me sister has cut off our phones yet. but, for those of you i normally text with, if you don't hear from me for a couple of days, you'll know what has happened. i think we're down to in out debate either going with T-Mobile, Consumer Cellular or Mint Mobile. i'm really hoping mom makes up her mind soon.

time for a drug habit...

 so, my sister got here last night and mom sent her to get some food. i put my phone down over by my chair and turned around and my mother had fallen again. she doesn't know what happened, so now i'm wondering if she's having blackouts. and of course, my brain immediately jumped to she has a tumor or something in her brain that is causing this shit. now, the more likely scenario is she tripped over her shoes or the side of her chair as she was getting to her walker. i swear, i am going to handcuff that fucking thing to her so she always has it near her. after i got her up, i told her, and you wonder why i'm going to be an addict soon.

 i had to go out and pick up some pills for my mother today at the grocery store. i figured, since i was out, i'd check out the Walgreens across the street and see if they had any baseball cards. i remember getting a jumbo box there a month or so ago. of course, they were all out. i decided to check at Rite Aid where i live to see if they had any. nope. well fuck. 

the Yankees lost to Boston yesterday, 10-2, but thanks to Seattle losing to San Diego, the Yankees did clinch a playoff spot. they start a 4 game series with Toronto tonight. hopefully, they get back to winning so they can at least have the first round of the playoffs at Yankee Stadium.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow sometime before Manchester United plays in the EFL Cup.

i'm afraid what mood i might be in if i got on here after the game.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

it stormed all fucking night and most of the morning. i might have got 3 hours of sleep that wasn't me tossing and turning and fighting my fucking bed. oh joy.

and of course, when the rained stopped, nearly every motherfucker around was at the grocery store. on top of going to both grocery stores, i also had to make a trip to the drug store and Family Dollar as well. these are the days where i understand why people do cocaine.

i heard back from The Beatnik Cowboy on my recent poetry submission. a couple of the poems came real close, but ultimately didn't make the cut. oh well, i'll get those published somewhere else.

The Big Bang Theory was really good last night.

Young Sheldon was hilarious last night.

love can be hazardous for your mental health...

i was thinking about this last night while chatting with my beautiful lover in Italy; clearing up some misunderstandings and remembering the joys of being in love with someone while they are menstruating. i'm not sure there could be anything more hazardous for your mental health than being madly in love while being fucking poor. i'm hoping to pull off some romantic shit for her birthday later this month. i think i may have found something my broke ass can swing, but there's always that voice in the back of my head that thinks it will never be enough. this is the joy of having shitty self-esteem, a disease that has fucked with me since birth i believe. as i told her last night, i am going to do everything i possibly can to make this work or i will happily die trying. i'm sure there's a part of me more looking forward to death than it should be. and i'm really trying to beat that fucker down, but his will is often stronger than mine. it certainly makes for an awkward silence here and there.

the New York Yankees split their doubleheader yesterday with Baltimore, losing the first game 5-4 and winning the second game 10-2. they are now 2 1/2 games behind Boston in the division. hopefully they will win tonight over a Baltimore team they have no business losing to.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night, but i didn't watch all of it. i was flipping back and forth with the baseball game. the main event was excellent last night. i could watch Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre wrestle for another 20 years and not get bored of that.

enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, The Jim Jefferies Show, Deadliest Catch and Fuck That's Delicious. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i am really looking forward to watching France vs. Belgium today in the World Cup. it's going to be fascinating for most Manchester United fans as it will be Pogba vs. Lukaku. i'm not really rooting for either team, i just want an entertaining match.

i have dishes to put away and trash to pick up. and i think there is a chance for thunderstorms this afternoon. summer in Ohio. wait ten damn minutes and the weather will change.

that's all for me kids.

before i get to the arthritis in my knee going nuts as i was biting into a sandwich, a little serious note i need to pass along.

on the right hand side of the blog, you may have noticed the picture i put up that is a direct link to Debbie Kirk's fundraising campaign on GoFundMe. this is to get her some money for her fight against breast cancer. i urge everyone to check it out, donate if you can, and pass it along to everyone you know. many thanks for all of you that do this. here is a link to the fundraiser:
https://www.gofundme.com/5m0wfqg

after mom and i got the car back from the mechanic, we went out lunch. just as i was biting into my bacon cheeseburger at Red Robin, my left knee started throbbing. 2 minutes later, the televisions went out and i knew exactly what was coming. it started to really fucking pour. that exact moment, i should have gone to the bar and got a shot or something. thankfully, the rain didn't last long, but the fucking drizzle did. we had to go to the grocery store after that. mom had pills to pick up (9 prescriptions) and we were out of sweetener for the morning coffee. that was all done pretty quickly. thankfully, the drizzle had stopped on our way home. of course, it's supposed to rain more tonight.

the New York Yankees won last night, 6-5 in 10 innings over Houston. the Yankees had no business winning the game as they had 5 fucking errors in the game. but, i'll gladly take it. the Yankees can win the series as it concludes tonight.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

205 Live was excellent last night.

Deadliest Catch was good last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show was hilarious last night.

the season finale (and hopefully not the series finale) of The Chris Gethard Show was excellent last night.

Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final is tonight. i'm rooting for Las Vegas in this series. hopefully they will go up 2-0 tonight on Washington.

i will be on here tomorrow after i get home from taking mom to her physical therapy appointment. hopefully, i will have some end of the month poems to type up.

like a dead soul floating through time

i took a piss last night around 3 in the morning and as i was leaving the bathroom a phrase just popped into my head. i laughed. i went back into my room and got my notebook out. this is how the poems happen these days. the demons will tap me on the shoulder and take the lead. i wrote my first 3 poems of March. i typed those up this morning and they are really good. i do have a place in mind for those poems. hopefully i'll have another writing session this weekend.

the New York Rangers lost last night at Tampa Bay 5-3. i didn't mind the loss as Tampa is a way better team right now. the Rangers need to keep losing so they can get a better draft pick.

Gotham was really fucking good last night.

The Big Bang Theory was pretty funny last night.

Young Sheldon was really good last night.

Will & Grace was hilarious last night.

Life in Pieces was pretty funny last night.

the grocery store today took a few years off of my life. first off, i had a scroll of items to get. second, there was way too many people for 1 pm on a Friday afternoon. and thirdly, my brain felt like it was on a different horizon than my body was at the store. i think i was holding 4 different conversations with myself while walking around. i'm sure there will be some poems about this. i almost think it was like a defense mechanism. maybe i should just start doing these things while drinking... no, you're right. there's not a chance in hell that will end up going smoothly.

i'm off to go eat some chili and cornbread. that should make for a potentially explosive Friday night.

i'll be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays. i will either be very, very happy or fucking pissed beyond belief.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

i woke up at 6 this morning with a cramp in my left leg. the cramp felt like a fucking knife was deep inside me. 30 seconds prior to that, i was sound asleep. i imagine there are easier ways for my body to tell me i have to go piss.

i was crushed yesterday when i heard Charles Bradley had died. cancer takes another one. fuck. rest in peace and thank for the countless hours your music took me to a much better place.

the New York Yankees got some good pitching yesterday and a couple of home runs to win over Toronto 5-1. they have now clinched a place in the playoffs. they still need to do a little work to make sure they have home field in the wild card game. they can make a dent in that by winning the series today.

Manchester United won yesterday 1-0. they next play in Moscow on Wednesday in the Champions League.

Ohio State beat UNLV yesterday 54-21. honestly, it never felt that close.

the New York Rangers lost to New Jersey last night 2-1.

i watched some wrestling last night being streamed out of Mexico trying to raise money for the earthquake victims. it was much better than i was expecting.

the New Orleans Saints play today at Carolina. since apparently the Saints aren't allowed to win in the month of September, it's a damn good thing i saved one victory drink from yesterday for today.

it's supposed to be another hot one here today. great.

bring on the weekend

so, when the Yankees were cruising along last night, leading 7-0 at one point, i started thinking about different scenarios how they might actually take the division back from Boston. of course, the Mets made a late comeback to get it closer, but the Yankees still won 7-5. that's the first Subway Series sweep for the Yankees since 2003. they start a series tonight up in Boston. they are 4 games behind in the division.

they actually showed more on Big Brother last night than i was thinking they were going to. that means i really don't know what the fuck they are going to show tonight. Cody was evicted first last night. Elena was next out. i guess i'll figure out who is the new HOH sometime tonight.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Weekend Update last night was fucking hilarious. i warned my mother before she watched it... be prepared to piss your pants from laughing.

The Chris Gethard Show was wonderfully absurd last night.

mom's eye appointment went well today. i think everything with her cataract surgeries is going to be covered by her insurance. and i think she's pretty confident about the surgery as well.

she then decided to go with me to the grocery store. this was the first time she's gone grocery shopping in damn near a year. she didn't hold me up too much, although she did buy some extra shit that i wouldn't get if i was there by myself.

i will be on here tomorrow sometime after Manchester United plays in the morning.

i guess we're going to get a ton of rain over the next few days. fucking great.

if i can tell rain coming from a couple hundred miles away because of my arthritis at age 41, what the fuck is it going to be like when i'm in my 50's or god forbid, my 60's?

i did see a little of the 1-1 draw between Cameroon and Australia today. i watched the first half of Germany and Chile before i went to the grocery store. i saw the game ended with the same score as when i left, 1-1. the Confederations Cup group play will end this weekend. i don't think any team has qualified for the semifinals yet, so it should be interesting.

that's all for me today kids. i need to go make dinner and ponder if heroin will take away my arthritis.
