close, but not close enough...

 so, before i get to another Dayton Flyers heartbreaking loss, i took mom to her doctor's appointment today. they took out one stitch from her eye surgery. everything is going exactly how the doctor hoped, so all are happy. the drive home was a bit crazy as it was raining. i had to go to the local grocery store again. mom forgot to put a few things on the list yesterday. thankfully, i was able to find everything and get in and out pretty quickly. eventually, this rain is supposed to change over to snow. joy.

the Dayton Flyers lost last night to #5 Iowa State, 89-84. they play #2 UCONN tonight at midnight. if they lose that game, they would have gone 0-3 in Maui. 

NXT was excellent last night.

The Voice was good last night. next week starts the live shows.

St. Denis Medical was very funny last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite and Inside the NFL.

the New York Rangers play at Carolina tonight. i really hope they find a way to win tonight.

i will probably watch the Dayton game at midnight, although i know i need some fucking sleep.

i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before all the NFL games get started.

i will definitely be on here before Manchester United plays in the Europa League tomorrow.

if you are traveling for Thanksgiving, please be safe and have some patience.

i need to get started on dinner, so that's all for me today kids...

until tomorrow...

it rained all damn day and night...

 we had over 2.3 inches of rain yesterday. by the time i got done with the dishes last night, my back felt like a fucking elephant had decided to sleep on it. i ended up having to sleep in my massage chair last night. i got a whopping 3 hours of sleep. joy.

the Yankees whipped Boston yesterday, 13-2. they go into the All Star break with the most wins of any Yankees team ever, 64. 

so the rain last night fucked with all the shows i was recording. that made for a frustrating night.

i did watch the best named rivalry game in soccer, Hell is Real, which is the name for the Columbus Crew vs. FC Cincinnati derby. Columbus won last night, 2-0.

i did watch a few other MLS games yesterday as well.

Big Brother was good last night. Pooch has to be a fucking idiot. who the fuck volunteers to go up on the block?

Westworld was fucking great last night. 

The Chi was excellent last night.

Flatbush Misdemeanors was pretty funny last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw, Miz & Mrs, Don't Forget the Lyrics and The Captain.

i will probably watch some of the MLB Home Run Derby tonight. mostly to see if it runs long so then i would have to adjust what time i record The Captain, the new ESPN documentary about Derek Jeter.

i did listen to episode 404 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:

so, i did send out 5 poems today to Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from Cristina, i will pass along the verdict.

so, mom finally decided that she wanted to update the main bathroom here in the house. i feel really comfortable with the company she is going with. and if it turns out the way i think it will, it should be an incredible upgrade to what we have.

the USWNT takes on Canada tonight in the finals of the CONCACAF women's championship. since i don't have Paramount+, i won't be able to watch the game tonight. i will follow it somehow on my phone though.

i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her doctor's appointment. 

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

 so, i guess i needed some sleep. 3 hours just wasn't going to cut it for today. i didn't get to bed until 6:30 this morning. i was up a little before 9:30. did my usual morning shit, got the Christmas cards into the mailbox, had breakfast and went to my massage chair. next thing i know, i was waking up and it was 4 in the afternoon. 3 of you getting Christmas cards from me this year will have yours mailed out tomorrow. i love a rural post office that closes a little after 4. but, since i have to get bloodwork done at 8:45 in the morning tomorrow, i know i will get to a post office on time then. good times.

i didn't get any writing done yesterday. it started to rain like the world was ending last night and my arthritis decided it was time for a bender. joy.

so, the plan for tomorrow is to get my blood drawn. then, go to the post office. and then i get to have breakfast and will hopefully get some poems written. and oh by the way, it is supposed to snow tomorrow. good times.

i did catch a little of the MLS yesterday. 

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i will hopefully be on here tomorrow before the sun goes down.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

a cloudy Monday...

 so, the snow we got yesterday fucked up the satellite for most of the day. i was able to get the Sunday Ticket package on the television via the app, but that was well into the afternoon by the time i got that going. the Saints lost to the Titans yesterday, 23-21. two missed extra points, too many penalties, too many referee fuck ups, etc. etc. etc. that's two damn weeks in a row the Saints lost a game they should have won. 

the New York Rangers defeated the Devils last night, 4-3 in a shootout. the shootout went 7 rounds. i was very happy the Rangers got both points. i am still fucking furious that P.K. Subban injured another fucking Rangers player. if the league won't punish him, hopefully someone makes sure he leaves the ice on a stretcher one of these days.

Axios was good last night.

Succession was excellent last night.

Insecure was really good last night.

Curb Your Enthusiasm was hilarious last night.
