i saw my next 5 months flash before my eyes today

mom had a doctor's appointment today with the doctor she went to see when she first thought she was having memory problems. she thought the visit was just going to be finding out what she could do to help her feel like she's remembering things better. in other words, a google search. instead, she now will get a brain MRI, another memory test, physical therapy for her gait, blood work and god knows what else. as the doctor was rattling this shit off, all i could see was afternoons spent in waiting rooms scribbling poems into a little notebook, just like 15 or so months ago. joy.

after all that, mom wanted to go to lunch. we went to the place we used to always go when i had to take her south of town for physical therapy. my bright ass decided to get something a little spicier than before, since it was a little chilly today here. let's just say i have a new poem i have written about having to take a shit and you're about 10 minutes from home and there's traffic.

i realized i forgot to mention the New York Rangers loss in yesterday's blog. that should show just how much this team has disappointed me this season. they play Arizona tomorrow night. i almost give a shit.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

205 Live was pretty good as well last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show was fucking hilarious last night.

American Horror Story was excellent last night.

Drop the Mic was much better than i thought it was going to be last night.

The Voice was pretty good last night. i'm ready for the knockout rounds now.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, You're the Worst and the season finale of Total Bellas. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i got some great FREE music on NoiseTrade this afternoon. below is the link:
Lydia Loveless - Boy Crazy and Single(s) Sneak Peek

i also listened to an interview with Anthony Grant this afternoon. you can find that by going here:

hard to believe that Dayton will play an exhibition game in just 10 days. college basketball is almost here.

i'll be on here pretty early tomorrow as my afternoon will be filled with taking mom to another doctor's appointment, grocery shopping and getting a battery replaced for the spare car keys.

that's all for me today kids.

¿Quién sabía que un poco de picante haría que el idiota frunciese así?

peace and chicken grease...

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

sleep, what a concept

i think i actually got some decent sleep last night, something close to 6 hours. i find that amazing as there was no alcohol involved, so i must have been tired as hell. i did feel refreshed for most of the day, until the fucking mail didn't get here until 4 in the afternoon. some days it's here by 11 AM and other days you can find the carrier jerking off in the McDonald's parking lot. welcome to life in a small town.

but, what i was waiting for was in the mail today:

my latest chapbook, part of the Punk Chapbook Series 2016 from Epic Rites Press. for more info and how to get your hands on it, go here: http://www.epicrites.org/punk-chapbook-series.html

Monday Night Raw was much better last night. the pacing, the matches, i thought everything just clicked. it wasn't a great show, but certainly wasn't as bad as the last month has been. i'm certainly looking forward to the Hell in a Cell ppv in 3 weeks.

The Voice started the battle rounds last night. the talent this season is pretty damn good.

Gotham was really damn good last night. the ending truly had me saying oh shit.

The Big Bang Theory was very funny last night. it's somewhat amazing that the show is still funny after all these years.

Vice News Tonight is going to be a show i will love. a quick paced news show that brings out the stories that most of the media won't touch.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice, Smackdown, Scream Queens and Atlanta.

team USA plays a soccer friendly tonight against New Zealand. hopefully i will be drinking a victory beer later tonight.

the trash is all picked up and now i'm going to take a long ass shower and get ready for the evening.

take it easy boys and girls, and then take it again.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...

the eruption is coming soon

i didn't try to write last night at all. i'm waiting for the words to hit me and then i'm expecting the great flood. i did get some mood music today on iTunes, just in case.

Monday Night Raw was not good last night. the only things i really enjoyed were the taped segments that Finn Balor and The Club did. the rest of the show was blah at best. the Stone Cold Podcast after the show was bizarre. Dean Ambrose is just a different cat and Stone Cold couldn't seem to get that through his head. it's almost like two different interviews were going on at the same time. it didn't help that for some reason my Blu-Ray was fucking up last night and i had to watch it on the computer. i got all that figured out today thankfully.

the trash is all picked up and is out at the curb. the humidity today is somewhere near hell levels.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Hard Knocks (LA Rams).

i am excited that the Paul Pogba drama is over and he has come home.

i can't wait to get this season started now. hopefully this will be the year Manchester United returns to glory.

i did watch the USA men's basketball team last night. they struggled early but eventually buried Venezuela, 113-69. next up will be Australia.

i will probably watch the USA women's soccer team take on Colombia later today.

the New York Yankees start a series at Boston tonight. if they have any prayer of making the playoffs, they have to sweep this series. i doubt that happens.

that's all for me kids. take it easy and then take it again.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
