tax day...

 i actually got more than 4 hours of sleep last night. i'm guessing i must have found a slot where my pinched nerve didn't bother me. or, the rye whiskey did the trick.

now it gets interesting...

 mom did me no favors by staying up all night. i was hoping to get the grocery shopping done and be back here, etc. etc. instead, she fell asleep when i woke up this morning at 6:30 AM. she thinks she might have cancer. she also thinks she is dying. fun times.

i also got some baseball cards while i was there. amazingly, found two rookie cards that are actually good.


i see Orange Hitler is trying to find a legal way to deport American citizens. the ACLU lawyers are going to be busy as fuck the next 4 or however long that asshole decides he wants to stay in office.

i hate losing more than i love winning...

 i am a very competitive person. and now that sports gambling is legal, i can put my money where my mouth is. now, i don't have fuck you money to gamble with, but i also stay true to the golden rule... only gamble what you are willing to lose. i did get the national title game last night between Florida and Houston right. i won two different groups on ESPN.com with that bracket. i went 47-16 in the tournament. that is my best record in years. apparently, putting money on it makes me a little more intense on getting shit right. that might be the only thing i worry about with my sports gambling. i am a perfectionist at heart. 


the Yankees lost yesterday at Detroit, 6-2. i did watch some of the game, especially when they were playing in the snow. they play again this afternoon.



the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Tampa Bay, 5-1. 





The Voice was very good last night.





Monday Night Raw was very good last night.






enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:

mom's doctor appointment yesterday went well. she chose to get physical therapy on her knees. that will start on Thursday. she thought she had an appointment today. we listened to the call again and it was for her to reschedule the appointment she had today. that will now be on next Monday. 


here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:





i should be on here tomorrow before i go grocery shopping.


i'll flip this afternoon between baseball and the champions league, hoping for a nap.

before another round of storms...

 i was saddened last night when i saw that Val Kilmer had died. one of those sneaky actors that could do anything and was in so many of my favorite movies.

i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to the accountant to get the taxes done.


i'm hoping the weather won't be too bad tonight.


i have no clue what i am doing for dinner tonight.

good news and a wasted afternoon...

 so, i went to the bank to make a deposit before my doctor's appointment. i got to the doctor's office a little early and amazingly, they got me into my appointment early. my A1C went from 8.4 to 6.0, everyone is thrilled about that. i explained that there will be a little gap in the Rybelsus since Anthem wanted me to pay over $2,600 for it. i did get my Medicaid card today. of course, the mail didn't come before my appointment. so, i'll have to make another trip out tomorrow while grocery shopping. so, i got back home and wanted to cancel my Anthem insurance. the last 2 hours have been spent trying to do that. from what i gather, the fuck up is the plan used to be on the Marketplace but no longer is so the Marketplace can't cancel something they don't have yet Anthem is telling me that is the only way the policy can be cancelled. as i told my mother, this is why death is so popular anymore. i told mom to try to cancel the payment she made last night and maybe then they'll understand to cancel the fucking policy.


i didn't get to watch any of the Manchester United game today. they lost at Nottingham Forest, 1-0.






Monday Night Raw was very good yesterday.




The Voice was excellent last night.





the New York Rangers signed Gabe Perreault last night. that made me very happy.





enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT, St. Denis Medical and Dark Side of the Ring.


the Yankees play tonight at home against Arizona.


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


oh yeah, since it is April and April is National Poetry Month, i guess i need to do a little bit on that.

enjoy...






i will probably do two videos a day on poets i like. and in this case, i figured i would start with myself as i have had the kind of day that i know my 8 year old self is laughing about and shaking his head, knowing that death was always the right answer.


until tomorrow kids...

fuck war.

still waiting...

 this almost feels like a battle of cat and mouse. not a damn thing in the mail today i was actually hoping for. this is doing wonders for my stress level.


grocery shopping went ok today. thankfully, i kept it under $200. after i got done with that, i had to take mom to get her new glasses. i am really hoping that now that she can see better, she will have a bit more confidence about everything.

well, hurry up and wait...

 i have a doctor's appointment on April 1st. i need to get bloodwork done. i am patiently waiting, i mean as fucking patiently as i possibly fucking can, for my Medicaid cards to show up so i can make the fucking changes to all the shit i have going on. i need to cancel Anthem, but i'm not doing that until the cards show up. and what really pisses me off, if i have been in the system since the 1st, why don't i have any cards 24 fucking days later? makes no fucking sense possible. i got a text from Kroger today that my Rybelsus will cost $2.657.56 to fill. basically, i am now in a Leonard Cohen song where it is way more cost effective to die than continue to struggle to live.


speaking of that, mom's doctor's appointment yesterday was interesting, she is a bit of a chatty person, always her nature. so, she admitted to having thoughts of suicide, etc. one, that pissed me off as it clearly is a reflection on the job i am doing as caretaker. second, of course they want her to think about taking some more pills to perhaps lighten her mood. third, why the fuck are these appointments two fucking hours long. 


we went to Arby's after the appointment and got home in time to watch Monday Night Raw. it was a really good show, once again.






The Voice was very good last night.

well, we got lucky...

 there was 9 tornadoes around me last night. a few to the north, a bunch more to the south. needless to say, i missed some shows last night because of the storm coverage. but, all in all, i was pleased that we missed out on most of the holy shit weather. just some thunder and lightning and some rain.

i did a little poetry work last night. hell, i was up until 5 this morning. i have a pretty good idea where i'll be sending poems to in the next few days.


grocery shopping went pretty good today. i got the senior discount at Kroger. i love that at 48, i can easily pass as someone in my late 50's or early 60's. helps that the playoff beard is mostly gray now.


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


until then kids...

well, the squirrels are back...

 mom had Orkin come out here today and sure enough, all the stuff they did didn't keep the squirrels out of the attic. so, now they have a trap set up to catch them and a special door on the roof where they were getting in. i guess, once they come out, they can't get back in. at least, in theory. the guy from Orkin was really surprised since the insulation they put in the attic is supposed to be very harmful for the squirrels. at least mom hasn't paid for any of this yet. so, yeah, that was my morning.


i did happen to write 3 more poems last night. i think i am slowly getting back into a groove. now, if i can double those numbers of 7 new poems into 15 or more by next week, i will be happy.


the New York Yankees lost last night at Baltimore, 4-2. hopefully, they will find a way to win tonight.

i need to go figure out dinner, so that's all for me kids.
