so, this happened last night...

 i was on the phone with the muse and i was by the back door of the house. i could hear the squirrels going nuts. i went outside to see if i could see what the fuck they were doing, since it sounded like they were on the roof. i got over to the side of the house and could really hear them. i looked up and there is a fucking hole in the siding underneath one of the roof lines. fuck me. it sounded like there was a fucking family up there, again. i told mom about it last night. i'm hoping i can get her out there so she can see it for herself. i can't tell if the hole came from storm damage or the squirrels just ripped the fucking hole themselves to get back inside. so yeah, not good.

Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.

AEW Rampage was ok last night.

Big Brother last night was the look back episode. the bloopers were pretty funny.

Real Time with Bill Maher was good last night. i hate when he has the right wing nut jobs on the show as all they do is try to explain Trump's bullshit and how it would actually be best for the country. ANYONE with a fucking brain and can see that bullshit.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live and Austin City Limits.

Ohio State plays tonight at Oregon. hopefully, Ohio State will win.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Utah.

the USMNT plays tonight against Panama. this will be Pochettino's first game as head coach of the team.

i'm sure i will watch plenty of college football today.

the Dodgers won last night at home against the Padres, 2-0. the Dodgers will play the Mets in the NLCS. 

the Yankees will play the winner of Cleveland vs. Detroit in the ALCS.

i should be on here tomorrow in the morning, before the Saints play Tampa Bay.

if the weather could only be like this...

 today was about as close to fucking perfect for the weather as it gets around here. mid 70's, hardly any humidity, a little breeze... of course, it is supposed to rain cats and dogs this weekend. joy.

so, when i got to Rite Aid last night the lady i talked to the day before recognized me. i told her it was for the testing strips and she found a box on the shelf and just took it, put my prescription sticker on it and there was no charge. crisis averted.

The Masked Singer was good last night.

American Horror Story was crazy last night. the season finale for Part 1 of this season is next week.

the New York Rangers start their season tonight in Buffalo. i'm not sure what the Rangers are going to be like this season. i'm not a huge fan of the coach and i don't have a good feeling about this team, so i hope i am completely wrong.

i might watch some of the NFL game tonight between Denver and Kansas City.

i should be on here tomorrow after i get back from taking mom to her physical therapy appointment.

hopefully, it won't be raining by that point tomorrow.

life wouldn't be that bad if the people were removed...

 so, when i got out of the shower at 4:10 AM, i put my right foot down on the mat. i could feel a pop in my right foot. i knew immediately that was my abnormally high arch that i am blessed with in both of my feet. so, i have been feeling that pain in my foot ever since. now, the beauty of pain is if you know how to deal with it, you can control it. the one thing about that mental mindfuck is it is extremely tiring. so, i am running on fucking fumes. that didn't make for fun at the grocery store or the two different fucking times i had to go to Rite Aid today. and whoever was the fucking genius that decided to close the drive thru at Rite Aid so everyone needed to come inside, please never have another fucking thought in your life. i'm sure all 15 of us in line just loved the fuck out of that wait.

the New York Yankees won Game 1 against Cleveland last night, 4-1. Game 2 will be tomorrow night.

The Voice was pretty good last night. hopefully, it will be tonight as well.

the fun of having writer's block

 so, in the grand scheme of things, i started this blog to hopefully fucking avoid this problem. writer's block is one of those things that truly scares the shit out of me. i know once the words go away, i'll be left to just my thoughts and death won't be far behind. so, doing an everyday blog was my way of making sure writer's block would be a foreign concept to me. so, last night, like i do on most holidays, i sat down to write. i had a decent opening line, but that was it. and it never went past that. two hours staring at a blank page and all my imagination could come up with was closing the notebook and pretending to sleep. good times.

the Yankees split a doubleheader against the Mets yesterday. they blew the first game as Gerrit Cole and (why the fuck is he still the closer) Aroldis Chapman pissed away leads. they lost that game 10-5. thankfully, they won the second game, 4-2. they are off tonight and start a series in Seattle tomorrow night.

The One And Only Dick Gregory was excellent last night.

Ohio State has made me very happy the last two days. 

i did watch Joey Chestnut eat a ridiculous 76 hot dogs yesterday to win the hot dog eating contest yet again.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. they were shooting fireworks off here until 11:30 last night. i'm surprised no one called the police.

enjoy some music:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i will be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

the USWNT takes on Mexico this evening. i will be watching that.

Game 4 of the Stanley Cup final is tonight. i love that Tampa's mayor thinks the Lightning should throw the game tonight so they can win the cup at home. there is someone who doesn't understand tempting fate.

the fuckers around here have shot off so many damn fireworks the last couple of nights, i have no clue how the fuck they would have any left for tonight.

the Yankees lost yesterday to the Mets, 8-3. they play a doubleheader today. if the Yankees lose both games they should be happy that George Steinbrenner is dead. if he was still the owner, there would be heads on stakes at Yankee Stadium after this shit. 

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

so, the NBA Finals are set. Milwaukee vs. Phoenix.

at the Euro 2020 yesterday, Denmark defeated Czech Republic, 2-1. England whipped Ukraine, 4-0. the semifinals are now set. Italy plays Spain on July 6th and England will play Denmark on July 7th.

at the Copa America yesterday, Colombia defeated Uruguay on penalty kicks, 0-0 (4-2) and Argentina defeated Ecuador, 3-0. the semifinals at the Copa America will be Brazil vs. Peru on July 5th and Colombia vs. Argentina on July 6th.

i did watch the Columbus Crew vs. New England Revolution game yesterday. it finished 2-2. i wanted to see what the new stadium looks like in Columbus. it does look amazing, at least on television.

ROH was really good last night.

i will be watching the hot dog eating contest like i do every 4th of July.

i'm sure i will watch some fireworks tonight and hopefully won't be pissed off at two Yankees losses.

i will probably watch some NASCAR today, especially if i need a good nap.

i did go out and water the tomatoes this morning. it is supposed to get up to 90 today, so i don't think we're going to be opening the windows.

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

congrats to LeBron on his 4th championship and 4th finals MVP. he's the only player ever to do that for 3 different teams. here are your highlights from Game 6 of the NBA finals:

it finally feels like fall

i opened up the windows this morning and there was a crisp in the air. it finally feels like fall.

mom was having muscle spasms all night, so that was fun. she got the results from her x-ray. nothing is cracked or broken, so that's good. she's just bruised really bad. the doctor gave her some muscle relaxers. i don't think they are helping as much as she wanted them to. now i just have to remind her to keep ice on it as much as possible. good times.

Smackdown was pretty good last night. i loved that Bayley went full heel and won back the Smackdown women's championship. it was also the first night of the draft. this should help both shows to feel much different in the weeks to come.

205 Live was good last night as well.

the finale of Murder in the Bayou was very good last night. i know if i wanted life as a criminal, i would move to Jennings, Louisiana.

Room 104 was excellent last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night.

the New York Yankees start the ALCS tonight at Houston. this is the series everyone expected before the season even started.

i'll watch plenty of college football today as well.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

of course this couldn't have happened 20 years earlier

so, i was in the grocery store and this very attractive white woman, i'm guessing in her late 20's, looked me up and down and smiled. i smiled and noticed her boyfriend, a black guy who was around 6'6 and 300 lbs., had his back turned. in my head, i was like this bitch is going to get me killed. now, 20 years earlier and i wouldn't have minded getting into a fight over a woman, mostly because my ego was still cocky enough and arthritis hadn't set in. but in 2018, those days are gone forever. after i smiled i just kept moving, never even looking back. i'm sure there will be poems though.

the grocery store was fucking crazy today. and of course, i had a scroll of shit to buy and gift cards as well. between gas, a prescription, gift cards and food, i was fucking shocked i kept it under $200.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

The Big Bang Theory was pretty funny last night.

Young Sheldon was very funny last night.

Will & Grace was hilarious last night.

the New York Rangers won in OT last night, 3-2 over San Jose. first win of the season for the Rangers. first win of David Quinn's NHL coaching career. The King was brilliant in goal. and i think i have a favorite new young player. Brett Howden is fucking amazing.

the USA men's national team lost to Colombia, 4-2 last night. the USA actually had the lead in the second half, so that's encouraging. with all the injuries they have currently, i wasn't expecting a victory, that's for sure.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NJPW, The Shop, Real Time with Bill Maher and Pod Save America.

it almost feels like 1996 again

i once again didn't watch any of the New York Yankees last night. it worked for the previous two games, so why not... it was painful walking over to the computer every 10 minutes or so to see what the score was. when the Yankees were up 3-0, i was thinking, holy shit, they might actually do this. when the Indians made it 3-2, i stayed away from the computer for a bit. i was online when Brett Gardner had his epic at bat in the 9th that gave the Yankees a 5-2 lead. when Chapman walked a guy in the bottom of the 9th, i got off the computer. i wasn't going to do anything that i could blame a sudden loss on myself. thankfully, Chapman got the outs needed and the Yankees came all the way back from being down 2 games to none to beat the fucking Cleveland Indians. as a guy that lives in Ohio, i know plenty of Indians fans. and they know i'm an asshole that will rub this in their faces for years. what i truly love about this team is they are way ahead of schedule. they traded away so many stars to "rebuild" and under a year later they are 4 wins away from going to the World Series. now, the task ahead of them will be a hard one. they haven't had much luck against Houston for a number of years now. and i don't think they will beat the Astros if Judge and Sanchez do next to nothing like they did against Cleveland. but, just like in 1996, another year no one saw it coming, just keep winning and shock the fucking world.

part 3 of Ultima Lucha Tres was excellent last night. next week could be the final episode of Lucha Underground. i know it's going to be 2 hours long, so if it is the last episode, i fully expect them to go out with a bang.

NXT was really good last night.

the season finale of Mr. Mercedes was fucking great last night.

You're the Worst was great last night.

Total Bellas was pretty good last night.

i think i may have found a new favorite alcohol last night. Jack Daniels Tennessee Fire. holy shit was that good.

the grocery store(s) went well yesterday. it felt like it was going to rain the entire time i was out, so i had fun plowing through that pain. the guy at the first store didn't give me everything i bought, so i had to go back in and get the bag that apparently i left behind. i was already pissed since the battery on the keys for the car died. so i actually had to manually lock and unlock the car. what the fuck. then i had to get gas. some lady didn't do the courteous thing and pull to the second pump so i could go around and be at the first pump. so i fucking blocked her in to get gas. she wasn't amused and then saw me get out of the car. she then thought better of it. the rest of the grocery shopping went pretty good. the store was pretty dead, which was fine with me.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime after my appointment with the doctor in the morning. i have no clue if i'll have to get x-rays tomorrow or not. i know mom has an appointment right after me with him, so i think we are going out to breakfast afterwards. that should be interesting.

that's all for me today kids. i have to get started on dinner. those appointments tomorrow are at 8 in the morning, so i might actually have to get to bed before 4 in the morning. maybe.

good to feel like a kid again... i think

when i was going to the kitchen to fix my second drink last night, laughing my ass off while i was chanting Adam Cole's name in my head, i started to think about my damn near 40 years of watching pro wrestling. one of my earliest memories is sitting on my grandfather's lap watching wrestling on the television. this is 1979 i believe. i was 3 years old and already reading baseball box scores. fast forward 38 years, i love that i can still get a jolt of whatever from simply watching pro wrestling. and when something exceeds my expectations, for a brief moment or two, all is right with the world.

NXT Takeover Brooklyn III last night was great. every match got slightly better as the night went on, right up to the main event. like what has happened before, the heavyweight title match had to come after an outstanding women's title match. and honestly, Ember Moon vs. Asuka was the match of the night. something just felt a little off about Bobby Roode vs. Drew McIntyre. when Drew won the match and won the championship, i pretty much thought that means Bobby is getting called up to either Raw or Smackdown. and then, Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly showed up. they already appeared in the show earlier beating the hell out of everyone after the tag team title match. when i saw them standing on the apron, i immediately got up from my bed and started to wonder where Adam Cole was going to appear from. as soon as the crowd starting going ape shit, i knew it was actually happening. sometimes the rumors are true. Adam came in the ring and destroyed Drew. i guess we have a new feud for NXT now. seeing three of my favorites from the last few years of ROH standing in a WWE ring together was beautiful and surreal. just like pro wrestling. another absolutely great show that will probably be better than SummerSlam tonight.

ROH was really good last night.

the New York Yankees once again found a way to beat Chris Sale. i have no damn clue how they have managed to beat him this season. a couple home runs and then hold the fuck on. thankfully, Girardi took Chapman out of the closer role and it worked last night. the Yankees won 4-3. hopefully they will win the series this afternoon.

introspection

i read an article today about Leonard Cohen. he said in the interview that he is ready to die. i owe much of what i have done in my writing really to two major influences; Charles Bukowski and Leonard Cohen. so i have spent a good portion of today listening to some music and thinking. it's always a dangerous combination. i go to the doctor on Friday. it's supposed to be just a check up. in my gut, i have a feeling it's going to be something more. good times.

team USA really got outplayed for most of the game last night by New Zealand. so when New Zealand scored to even the game late, i wasn't surprised. i was more pissed that the USA never bothered to have any urgency until the last 3 minutes of the game. a 1-1 draw is not the end of the world, but they need to get their shit together for when they face Mexico next month in Columbus.

Smackdown was pretty damn good last night. i loved the interaction between AJ Styles, Dean Ambrose and James Ellsworth. overall, another great show.

The Voice was really good last night. i really think they have found some amazing talent this season.

Vice News Tonight was excellent once again. i really hope if you have HBO you are watching it or recording it to watch later.

Scream Queens was hilarious as usual.
