nothing like clearing snot for 20 minutes in the morning

i didn't sleep worth a shit last night. it was a battle to breathe with this damn cold and then a battle with the comforter for a good 3 or 4 hours. it didn't help that it was fucking raining as well. eventually at 6 this morning i gave up and just decided i guess i'm going to be up forever today.

and between clearing snot and watching some soccer from over in England and Germany, i think most of my morning was spent on the fucking toilet. as my grandmother would put it, get the poison out any way you have to.

hopefully i'll get some more sleep sometime today.

the final two episodes of Mosaic last night were fucking excellent. i definitely could see people binge watching this series and enjoying it. even after watching it, there's still 3 people i think could have done the murder.

NJPW last night was a rerun of two matches i had already seen from Wrestle Kingdom 12.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Treehouse Masters was very interesting last night. i never thought i'd see a damn sauna in a tree.

Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live, Austin City Limits and ROH. i'll be watching NXT Takeover: Philadelphia for most of the evening on WWE Network.

i did make it back from the grocery store yesterday in time to watch Manchester United play. Alexis Sanchez looked great out there with his new team. he will certainly be a welcome addition. United won 4-0 yesterday, advancing to the next round of the FA Cup.

the Dayton Flyers play today at Saint Louis. Dayton has won 7 straight games in this series. i'm hoping today will be the 8th in a row.

the NHL All Star and NFL Pro Bowl festivities are this weekend. i doubt i watch much of either.

i think a good portion of today is going to be me in pain, struggling to do my laundry while arthritis laughs in my face. good times.

i did get some excellent FREE music on NoiseTrade last night. below is the link:
Caroline Rose - LONER - Singles

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

lloviendo y tosiendo, qué buen comienzo para mi sábado

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...

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

and then the words started to flow

i was pacing in my room last night, trying to figure the next line of a poem. i sort of edit myself like this as i hate fucking around with a poem once i have written it down. once i got something that i liked, the words started to flow. in about 30 minutes i wrote 7 poems. i typed up all 7 this morning and i think they are pretty good. i'll probably be sending these out next month sometime.

Total Divas was pretty funny last night, mostly because i know so much of the backstage shit from when the show was shot. it's interesting to then see how it is spun for the cameras.

i think i might have got 6 hours of sleep last night. rare, rare indeed.

i met one of our neighbors today while i was out getting the trash cans. she was out getting the mail and her little dog Chipper ran over to me. she apologized and i told her don't worry about it. i laughed as the dog was trying to climb the pole to get to the bird feeders. but, since i don't look like someone who wants to have a conversation, my neighbor got her dog eventually and walked back across the street without saying anything else. i know i might look like an evil fuck, but i only play that on the internet.

looks like it's going to get into the 50's on the weekend. i guess winter is over.

i got some great FREE music today on NoiseTrade. i will include the link below in the music section. i highly recommend checking this one out.

enjoy some music kids:

now some of this and that:

wrestling Wednesday is finally back as tonight starts season 2 of Lucha Underground. of course, i really hope the DVR does its job correctly as i will be at the basketball game when it is on.

after watching that when i get back home, i'll hop on WWE Network and watch NXT.

the Dayton Flyers take on Saint Louis tonight at home. they are favored by 18 points. so, for all you guys that like to bet out there, take the points. i will be shocked if Dayton wins by that much.

i'm guessing that dinner will be at Waffle House again after the game. hopefully there won't be any weather to deal with tonight.i don't mind cold. i don't like driving in sleet or snow or a cold ass rain.

that's all for me kids. i need to go take a shower and start getting ready for the game. tonight is a sell out so we have to leave here a little earlier than normal so we can get a decent parking spot. good times.

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

back in the saddle again

when i got back home last night, the trash cans were in the same spot where i left them on the way to Columbus, the cats weren't dead, but the internet was out and the power went out at some point while we were gone. plus, 3 inches of fresh snow and plenty of aching bones. good times.

the NHL All-Star game was fun. i did enjoy it. i didn't take it seriously, as none of the players did either. i was really happy to see Rick Nash score 2 goals. plus, i can at least say for a year, i was at the highest scoring All-Star game in NHL history. here are a few of the 85 pics i took from the game:

it was snowing pretty good after the game. my sister and i went to get a little food and take it back to her condo. i hadn't eaten since the morning, so i was hungry. but, i decided not to eat too much, as the last thing i wanted to do was destroy my sister's bathroom. amazingly, i was able to get a little sleep that night on her couch.

turns out my sister does have HBO (she also has Showtime, but she didn't realize it until i told her the next day) so i was able to watch Girls and Togetherness on Sunday night. i also watched Total Divas, which my sister was amazed that she actually watched the whole hour of it.

the snow finally ended on Monday morning. most of the schools were closed. my sister had to get a mirror she purchased and she said the roads were shit. we were going to go out and do some shopping, but mother nature had other plans. in the afternoon, we picked up mom at her hotel. i met one of her bosses, who was a little surprised to find out that i'm a published poet. she then mentioned Charles Bukowski and i thought holy shit, i have to get this woman to like my work and become my Linda King.

we went to dinner Monday night at the house of one of my sister's friends from college. her and her husband are really fucking cool, so it was a pretty fun dinner. both are really into music, so that's always a fun conversation. i would have been drinking with them if i didn't have to drive back to the farm right after leaving their house. but, one day i can see us getting drunk and debating old records from the 70's and having a blast.

the drive back was an easy one. the roads were pretty damn clear. we got home in time for me to catch the last hour of Monday Night Raw and the shows on Showtime i missed; Shameless (another awesome episode), House of Lies (great ending) and Episodes (better than the last one).

i think i fell asleep to the blizzard coverage on the weather channel.

i watched the episode of Gotham i missed on Monday night this afternoon. it was yet another amazing episode. such a great show.

i guess the New York Rangers are playing tonight at the fucking Islanders. i guess the storm missed that dump out on Long Island. hopefully the Rangers can get a much needed win against those fuckers tonight.

other than that, i have some papers to read and mail to catch up on.

i got a call from the muse today. that was a pleasant surprise. of course, she called while i was out getting the paper and mail. hopefully we'll get to chat with each other soon.

that's pretty much all for me today. i think tomorrow may end up being a laundry day for me. so i'll try to get on here sometime between loads. i'm sure someone with a dirty mind just smiled.

thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

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