so, the reason the check engine light was on in the Highlander was due to the same damn reason as three times before. the hose that goes into the air box came loose. as the guy at the dealership told me, that should never happen. so, me made a note in my account and also didn't charge me anything. now, if i could just get that hour back in the waiting room watching fox news. holy shit, no wonder so many people in this country are fucking dumb.
here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:
the Yankees won last night at home against Oakland, 7-3. hopefully, they will win again tonight.

The Masked Singer was crazy as usual last night.
the season finale of American Horror Story was good last night.
NJPW was very good last night.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Young Sheldon.
the first round of the NFL Draft is tonight. i imagine i will watch some of that.
i am running on roughly 3 hours of sleep, so at some point i will crash, that's for certain.
i did get 2 poems written today. i was hoping for a lot more than that. but, i can only squeeze so much water out of the rock anymore.
i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck war.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
stay off the fucking streets.
get the fucking shot.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i woke up this morning and my whole body was aching. i didn't have to look out the window to know it was fucking raining. i know, as i get older, this is only going to get worse. joy.
it's hard to believe the NFL Draft starts tonight. since the New Orleans Saints don't have a first round pick this year, i'm just interested in seeing where the Ohio State players go.
the New York Yankees were behind 5-0 last night. amazingly, they came back to win the game over the Angels, 6-5. they go for the sweep of the series tonight. of course, yet another injury as Clint Frazier is now on the injured list. that's the 15th player so far this season. just fucking crazy.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night. round 2 starts tonight.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:
NXT was excellent last night, as was WWE Worlds Collide.
What We Do in the Shadows was fucking hilarious last night.
Dark Side of the Ring was about the murder of Bruiser Brody last night. i still remember watching his matches when i was a kid.
here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month:
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon, Life in Pieces, Better Things and the series finale of Gotham.
i'll be flipping between the NFL Draft, playoff games in the NHL and NBA, some baseball and god knows what else tonight.
i'll probably be on here tomorrow after i get back from the grocery store.
mom had the plumber out here this morning to fix our toilet. thankfully, it was an easy fix for him. i think tomorrow morning is the window guy. i don't think mom is happy at how much air gets through windows she paid about the price of a car for.
on top of everything else, it's supposed to rain like a motherfucker tonight. good times.
until tomorrow...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i saw a story in the newspaper the other day about a Kickstarter campaign for a documentary about one of my favorite local bands when i was growing up, Brainiac. so, i looked up the campaign today and decided, fuck it, and i pledged some money towards it. so, i now have a Kickstarter account. if you'd like to help the Brainiac kickstater, go here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1955677038/brainiac-documentary
that got me to thinking of all the local bands i used to listen to back in the mid to late 90's. so, in the music section you'll see all that represented.
i had to make a run to the grocery store today to get all kinds of products and pills for my mother. her procrastination is striking once again.
the New York Yankees game tonight up in Boston has been postponed. it will be made up as a doubleheader in July.
Monday Night Raw last night was more or less horrible. i can't believe that was the show they put on right before a pay per view this Sunday.
i was so happy that Gotham was back last night. i absolutely love that show.
The Voice was pretty interesting last night. most of the first hour did nothing for me. the second hour was really good. i have no damn clue who will be leaving tonight. i figure it will be someone from team Adam. as usual, he managed to fuck over his team like he does every season. horrible song choices.
if any of these people leave, i will be pissed.
Scoochie Smith, the graduating point guard from the Dayton Flyers, has started a gofundme page to try to start an online clothing store. i figured i would be a good fan and pass on the link: https://www.gofundme.com/my-online-clothing-store
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice, Great News, Deadliest Catch and Smackdown. i'll watch 205 Live on WWE Network sometime tonight.
so while waxing nostalgic today, i'm always amazed at just how much shit i still remember. it's funny, as that was always my reasoning behind not taking photos as a child when we went on vacation. i took it as a challenge to remember everything. little did i know i actually would. being sexually molested, being threatened with my life by strangers and my father, getting my lip busted by a wiffle ball, getting shot at while running through a field, dead animals, crushes that ended horribly, getting punished on my youth soccer team for my cousin sleeping with the coaches' oldest son... the good parts of my childhood were an ET birthday cake, getting to meet famous baseball players, the first day i ever heard Metallica, selling off my father's baseball cards without him knowing, the first time i ever got high, my first sip of alcohol at age 6, going undefeated in junior high basketball, and still remembering the first time i kissed a girl's lips and felt magic.
is there any fucking wondering why i am a poet?
i got some great FREE music on NoiseTrade last night. click on the artist's name to get the music: Sheila E. Justin Townes Earle
the trash is all picked up and i got the hummingbird feeders out today as well.
i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. i know i will probably have to do some more running around for mom. i think she'll have more pills ready to be picked up tomorrow. i feel like i live at that damn pharmacy now.
be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

after a nice, long shower at 2 in the morning, i had a writing session last night. i wrote 5 poems, all of which i like. i typed them up this afternoon. the only problem with me writing late at night is i have a hard time falling asleep. my brain doesn't like to be turned off. that's why i always play music at night, hoping to distract my brain and then get some rest. 4 hours a night doesn't really cut it.
for National Poetry Month, i give you:
House of Lies was funny last night. it really made me miss the days where i'd get fucking stoned out of my mind. Silicon Valley was fucking hilarious. Veep was hilarious as well. sadly, i believe that is much closer to reality about our government than it is to fiction. finally, Last Week Tonight was brilliant once again.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and Gotham. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the night.
the New York Yankees play tonight down in Texas. i doubt i watch much of the game.
i did listen to the latest Sam & Cathy podcast this morning. i highly recommend you checking it out.
the sun was out for most of the day. i did see my uncle get out on his scooter for a little bit. i don't know how much longer he'll actually get to enjoy that.
i did all my household duties in the last 2 days. cleaned the toilets, put away the dishes, vacuum the whole house. hopefully mom will notice when she gets back.
heard from my first girlfriend this morning that she's moving to Virginia next month. i told her to keep in touch but i doubt that happens. the one thing that amazes me as someone who has never had many friends to begin with, just how easily adults grow apart from their friends. of course, i probably wouldn't notice this problem at all if i had gone to college and had those friendships to build on. instead i was working in a factory, falling in love with the wrong people and writing poems hoping someone would publish them. lord knows, i never liked the easy way of doing anything.
i hope everyone had a great weekend. i may be a little moody this week. it's coming up on the one year anniversary of my father's death. i need to get out to the cemetery and be sure to take my camera. i'd like visual proof that fucker really is gone.
