and now the rain...

 i swear, the rain has been just enough today to make my back feel like an elephant has strapped himself to me and just won't let go. these are the days where i think there isn't enough heroin in the world to take this pain away. joy.

i did have a lovely conversation last night with the Spanish princess. i can imagine if i lived closer to her, what adventures my life would be filled with now. i think both of us dream about what could be, though we both know the odds are so fucking stacked against us, how many times do we really want to roll that ball up the mountain?

the New York Rangers lost last night in Tampa in a shootout, 2-1. that was beyond fucking frustrating to watch, but at least they got a point out of the game.

team USA won at the World Juniors yesterday, defeating Switzerland, 5-1. that sets up a winner take the group game tomorrow against Finland.

the New York Knicks lost last night in San Antonio, 122-115.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

i did watch some college football last night:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and AEW Rampage. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.

i have my favorite songs of the year lined up for tomorrow's blog. it is a pretty eclectic mix i believe.

tomorrow is going to be one of the crazy days for me that has sports on from the moment i wake up until i probably go to sleep. i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the morning.

hard to believe yet another year is coming to an end. hard to believe i'm not dead, hard to believe my mother has cheated death again, hard to believe the words still find me from time to time, hard to believe that i still have to burn fucking bridges in 2022. luckily for me, there won't be many left after this year, so... while i know it won't be smooth sailing ahead, i feel like i am in a much better position to actually do something about it. and in two days i can finally legally gamble on sports in this small minded redneck bible thumping state... time to see if i still have the smarts to turn $20 into $400 like i did so many years ago.

more on that in 2023. i am ready for 2022 to be over. hopefully, it goes out with a bang.

until tomorrow kids...

up too damn early...

 so, i was up at 6 this morning. i wanted to get up early and get my day going as i knew mom wanted to be up around 8 this morning. she is not a morning person at all and i barely am. thankfully, i think she was awake enough to have her online counseling session this morning. i shaved and showered and went to the bank today. after i made that deposit, i went to Big Lots. i got 5 packs of 2022 Topps Heritage for $30. i found some decent rookies in the packs and one short print. i'm still chasing a damn Julio Rodriguez rookie card.

the Yankees lost last night to Tampa Bay, 4-0. hopefully, the fucking offense will wake the fuck up tonight and score.

Industry was excellent last night.

Monday Night Raw was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch, What We Do in the Shadows and Hard Knocks.

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

my back has been killing me for most of today. i just love the days when ice and stretching and walking don't loosen the fucker up at all. 

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

i've had it with humans...

 so, here is a little slice of my day today at the grocery store. i was standing in line and noticed there was this young family behind me. i'm guessing the parents were in their late 20's and they had 2 little kids with them. the checkout lane next to me opened up and i mentioned it to them, since i could tell, especially on the father's face, he was ready to get the fuck out of there. so, they went in that lane and i stayed in mine. both of them thanked me. i then got up to the cashier in my lane and of course, here comes the fun. there was a shift change and that also meant, the bagger that was working that lane left as well. so, you can imagine the fun i had bagging my groceries as both of my arms were raging from the pinched nerves. the lady behind me had already put her credit card and coupons on the little spot next to the card reader, thinking i was done. i just looked at her with the most evil fucking look i can muster with a fucking mask on. the cashier told the lady i still had to pay. she moved back. i put my card in and the cashier told me thanks. i told her i need the receipt. oh, that's right. she gave me the receipt and the needless coupons that came with it. mind you, the winds today were blowing around 45 MPH all the fucking time. i got my groceries in the Highlander and just mumbled to myself, i'm done with fucking humans. maybe i'll become Howard Hughes after all.

Manchester United won 2-0 yesterday against Brighton. CR7 finally scored again. Bruno added another goal late. our damn internet went out right as the defender from Brighton was getting a red card. the win puts United back into 4th place.

the USA men's hockey team pissed away chance after chance last night and gave up the game tying goal with 44 seconds left against Slovakia. the game had no scoring in OT, so it was decided in a shootout. i'm still wondering why the fuck David Quinn didn't use the best USA players in the shootout. Slovakia won that, 1-0. they won the game 3-2. Slovakia advances to the medal round in easily the biggest win in their Olympic history. all of this reminded me of how Quinn coached the New York Rangers. when it didn't matter, the team was great. as soon as it did matter, he couldn't coach the team out of a wet paper bag. and considering Canada lost to Sweden, the USA pissed away a glorious chance to win a medal. oh well.

the New York Rangers won last night against Boston, 2-1 in a shootout. 

NXT was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Celebrity Big Brother, I Can See Your Voice and AEW.

the USA women's hockey team takes on Canada tonight for the gold medal. hopefully they will do better than the men's team.

we are under a flood watch at the moment. since it got into the 50's today, i imagine some rain and some melting snow and we will have a nice little shit show here.

i did get some baseball cards today at Rite Aid. it was a $5 box that had just about $10 worth of cards in it. that made me happy.

i should be on here tomorrow after mom's physical therapy session in the afternoon. i'm hoping i will get some poems written while i am there.

i need to go figure out what i'm making for dinner tonight.

that's all for me kids.

until tomorrow...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the fucking shot.

one way to wake up later in the morning...

 i wanted to wake up after 8:30 this morning. i knew the easiest way for me to accomplish this was to not go to sleep until 4 in the morning. sure enough, that is exactly what happened. it has felt like it was going to rain all day today. so far, nothing. joy.

the Yankees finished off the sweep of the Red Sox last night, winning 5-2. now, the Yankees truly control their own destiny. they start a series tonight at home against the Twins.

AEW was great last night.

Big Brother was good last night. i'm pretty sure Britt will be going to the jury house tonight.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Big Brother, Holey Moley, When Nature Calls and Desus & Mero. i watched NXT UK earlier this afternoon on Peacock. it was really good.

i should be on here tomorrow after i hopefully get a fucking haircut. i can't stand when my bangs get into my eyes. that drives me nuts and as my mother would always say, that's a short fucking trip.

so, i got a letter today from my doctor's office. the doctor i was supposed to see next month is moving to Piqua, which is about a hour away from us. so i had to cancel my appointment and call up there to get a new one. thankfully, it will be on the same day, just a little later in the afternoon. now, i have no clue which woman i will be seeing, but i'm sure it will make for some interesting poems.

that's all for me kids...

until tomorrow...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

pain tolerance...

 it's a good fucking thing i have a high pain tolerance. my experience at the doctor's office would have been completely different if i didn't. i'm not sure what the point of being on time is when the appointment is going to be later than it was scheduled for. at least, now i have a cell phone to pass the time. i had to be stuck twice for my A1C. i had to have my blood pressure taken twice because of shitty equipment. and to top everything off, i had to have some blood drawn as well. my A1C is still good. my blood pressure was excellent today. now, i have no clue how the blood work is going to turn out. i'd like to believe i'm doing good, but there is a part of me that has wished to be dead since i was 8. so yeah...

NXT was really good last night.

AEW was really good last night as well.

Alabama Snake was pretty interesting last night. sadly, it reminded me of my father's side of the family way too much.

The Masked Singer was a holiday sing a long last night. the season finale is next week.

the season finale of I Can See Your Voice was good last night.

the USMNT defeated El Salvador last night, 6-0. i did get to watch some of the game. it was nice to see so many youngsters get their first cap.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Miz & Mrs, Total Bellas and Cari & Jemele Won't Stick to Sports. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i will probably watch some of the NFL game tonight between the Patriots and Rams.

i don't have a damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i figure i will need to hit the store to pick up meds for mom and myself. also, mom starts all her stuff for her upcoming colonoscopy (fun, fun, fun).

that's all for me kids.

until tomorrow...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

wear your mask.
