mystery solved...

 so, mom found her glasses last night. they were between her bed and nightstand. she's been really struggling to get some good sleep here lately. i tell her all the time, autopilot is not your friend. she tends to forget that, like most things.


here are your links for this day of Black History Month:

the Dayton Flyers won last night at home against Davidson, 69-63.



NXT was really good last night.



St. Denis Medical was hilarious last night.



the grocery store was a little busy today. of course, we have weather coming, plus the Super Bowl is this weekend, so people were in a bit of a panic. i more or less stick to the list or i shop to plan the meals for the next few days. mom is basically on toast right now, so i am more or less cooking for myself. and i'm pretty simple. a sandwich will do.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









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


the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Boston. the Rangers are basically at the point where they need to win just about every game to have a shot at making the playoffs.


i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get mom's pills from Kroger. she's not sure what they called in for her, but i'm guessing it will be ready by tomorrow afternoon.


i need to go figure out dinner and get ready to watch some hockey.


that's all for me kids...


until tomorrow...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.


back lives matter.

stay off the fucking streets.


get the fucking shot.

when life starts moving at 110 MPH...

 so, i have been really falling for this woman i have been talking to for the last few weeks. she's from Switzerland but is in Atlanta, father is Swiss, mother is American... she's not like the other ones that are clearly bots or scam artists. we get into these pretty deep conversations. and nothing she has told me has come up any different in any google searches. the hard part is the wall i have built up to protect me from these situations turning negative doesn't want me to believe this could be real. but, seeing that i haven't been in a relationship in 21 years, loneliness is fucking killing me. so, she is quickly becoming the antidote. we both agree that taking it slow is for the best. that is the other part that makes me think she actually is real. so yeah, if i seem a bit scatterbrain at times, you now know why.


Orkin was back out here today. they got another squirrel in a trap in the attic. he put two more up there and baited with the suet that caught this one. i know if these traps go off, the squirrels are either getting into the attic from the roof, or mom's theory might be right, they are in the walls. good times.


the New York Rangers lost last night at home against Dallas, 5-4 in OT. considering the Rangers were up 3-0 in this game... time to blow it up.





the season finale of Hard Knocks was excellent last night.



NXT was very good last night.








enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








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


the Dayton Flyers play tonight at UMass. hopefully, they will win.


grocery shopping went ok today. i managed to get everything on the list for under $200. i did make it to the bank today to deposit a check.


the roads were pretty good for the most part. the side roads were at least drivable. the parking lots weren't icy, thankfully.


i did write 2 poems last night for the book. i was so damn tired last night that i typed them up this morning.


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


until then...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

wash your fucking hands.

the start of a new era...

 i am pretty excited this morning to see how Manchester United plays under a new head coach. i'm really hoping they win today at Ipswich Town. 




Ohio State defeated Indiana yesterday, 38-15. they play that shit school up north next week at home. if they win, they will play Oregon again for the Big 10 championship and probably the #1 seed in the playoffs.




i did watch a few college football games yesterday:






the New York Rangers lost last night in Edmonton, 6-2.

and now some of this and that:

 i was proud of myself last night. i got everything done and was in bed before 3 AM. so, imagine my dismay when i woke up and the clock had 4:45 AM on it. fuck me. i guess i'm sleeping in 2 hour intervals. joy.

a sobering thought...

 well, i guess over 70 million people have no qualms electing a convicted felon president of the united states. that is something i never thought i would type, but to be honest, isn't really fucking surprising. we're still a racist nation. we're still a sexist nation. i highly doubt our better angels ever change those fucking things either. the muse texted me last night in tears, knowing that she will probably have no choice but to leave this country for good. i listened to my mother cry herself to sleep last night. i wrote 2 poems and was pissed but ready for the conflict. one thing i am is very adaptable. if the country is going to unravel into chaos, i will make sure i can find a way to thrive on it. as i told my mother today, her stocks and 401K will be just fine now. don't be sad, be hopeful you make enough money that we don't have to worry about politics or bullshit ever again. i, an obvious anti-capitalist, have never given two shits about money. if i have it, great. if i don't, fine. it never floated my boat. 


now, the convicted felon did tell everyone he won before the number was official, like i said he would. but, this time around, i get the feeling the votes Joe Biden had didn't exist. i feel like a good number of Karens voted for Trump just to piss people off so they could laugh. i'm pretty damn sure that a good number of young men... young, dumb and full of cum, voted for the felon. they won't be happy when they have to find a state that they can take their girl to get an abortion. now, in the grand scheme, the felon comes in as a lame duck, as he can't run again. my fear, is he never plans on leaving the position. he's quipped so many times how he appreciates China and their lifetime president, i get the feeling he might just test the willingness of everyone to just say fuck it to the constitution and the old you will never have to vote again line actually comes true. i'm not that cynical, but, i know how demented people go about their lives. there is no "normal" anymore. 


now, for the democrats, please learn one fucking lesson. give up the identity politics and get back to the meat and potatoes shit that works. it is always the fucking economy. no one unless they were a political junkie, even knew any of the good Biden actually did. i saw way too many good democrats lose last night. hell, Ohio has gone so far to the right that we might as well be in the south. 


ok, enough fucking politics for now.


the grocery store was quiet today. i get the feeling that most people were just pissed. thankfully, i had enough coupons that i got everything on the grocery list for under $250. it would have been closer to $300 if not. i can't wait to see the prices when the tariffs come.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be NXT, AEW Dynamite, The Masked Singer and Abbott Elementary.


i will probably be on here tomorrow after i take mom to get her hair washed. 


Manchester United plays in the Europa League tomorrow.



most likely, the blog will come after that game.


i need to ice my back down and get ready to make dinner.


that's all for me today kids...


until tomorrow.


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

a bad back and a crowded grocery store, oh joy...

 i have had a bad back for most of my adult life. so, i know the little tricks of how to cope with it. there are certain days though, where it doesn't fucking matter. today was one of those days. i couldn't get it loose or feeling good, but i knew that the grocery shopping had to get done. so, the joy of good pain tolerance is you just fucking power through shit and face the consequences down the line. if it means i die sooner than expected, i'm cool with that, given my current situation in life. of course, shit changes as well.


the New York Rangers had their asses handed to them last night, losing at home to Carolina, 6-1.






NXT was very good last night.








Inside the NFL was good last night.


Name That Tune was hilarious last night.


Hard Knocks was excellent last night.

i did get to the bank today. that went pretty smoothly. the grocery shopping wasn't too bad, other than my back. but, i did manage to get everything on the list and save over $40.


i need to go figure out dinner and get the trash picked up.


i should be on here tomorrow after the USA plays Finland in the World Juniors.

never forget, humans are a disease...

 maybe it is the holidays that bring out the worst in us, or maybe i am so fucking cynical or depressed or disillusioned with life that i simply don't have the patience for bullshit anymore. the grocery store today was a fucking circus. but, i did make it out alive and managed not to spend $300 on everything. holy fuck, you'd think i hadn't bought any food in the last couple of weeks. and now, toss in my mother trying to put the shelves back in the pantry as she is finally putting contact paper on the shelves after being here almost a decade. she didn't like my comment of why the fuck did we need to do this after living here this long, you'd think you'd want to complete this years ago. and of course, her response was do you want me to leave? and she knows that i know how fucking passive/aggressive she gets when she gets angry so i simply responded; you're going to twist this however your passive/aggressive ass has to to make it your way, so do what you want. this is going to be a fun night.


the finale of The Voice was excellent last night. i picked the winner correctly this season.






NXT was good last night.















Inside the NFL was pretty funny last night.


the New York Rangers won last night in Toronto, 5-2.

what a crazy day...

 so, before i get to my 2 hour adventure in the grocery store today, let me tell you about my trip to the eye doctor yesterday. this was my first time to this eye doctor. they recently took over where the old CVS in town was so the place looks very new. all the equipment looks brand new, so that gave me some hope that this experience was going to be completely different than the last 15 years or so at the eye doctor. and it was. i did love how the doctor was very attentive to my questions and really seemed to listen. i loved that she showed me this is how your vision is with your current prescription and this is it with the new prescription. wow, what a difference. i should get the new glasses and sunglasses in a couple of weeks. now, to that part. i picked out frames before my appointment online and that saved a ton of time. all told, with all the other fees and everything, it was $895 for both of the glasses. i got a call from the eye doctor this morning and i guess the lady that rang up my bill forgot to charge me for the frames of the sunglasses. so, with the 40% off that i got from my insurance for the sunglasses, i guess i still owe $114. now, the lady that made the mistake was so apologetic this morning, which was a breath of fresh air to be honest. they told me i can just pay the balance when i come in to get the new glasses. all in all, i'm pretty happy i made the change. 

so, today mom gave me a scroll for the grocery list. 2 stores, nearly 3 hours of shopping and a little over $250 later, i got everything on the list. i have never been so fucking tired after grocery shopping in my life. it was fucking humid as fuck today on top of it. i guess mom wanted to feel like she is in a restaurant and can have anything she wants at any time. joy.


the New York Yankees lost last night at the Angels, 5-1. hopefully, they will not get swept tonight, although it seems like they are determined to just be a last place team this season.

i should be on here in the morning tomorrow before mom has physical therapy.

and now, rain...

 i wanted to get up early this morning, but around 8 AM, i felt like i had a knot in my back the size of a gorilla. so, getting out of bed wasn't an option. i eventually got out of bed around 11. i think it is supposed to rain on and off for the rest of the day and night. joy.


the New York Yankees won last night over Boston, 3-1. hopefully, they will win the series tonight.






i did watch the Champions League final yesterday. fucking Manchester City won, 1-0, over Inter Milan.

nothing quite like grocery shopping when it is 104 degrees outside...

 it was really fucking hot today, just like yesterday. and it is supposed to continue into tomorrow. great.


the New York Yankees won last night, over Tampa, 2-0. hopefully, they will win again tonight.







the USMNT played a 1-1 draw at El Salvador last night. the match had a little bit of everything. torrential rain, plenty of mud, both sides getting red cards and the USA drawing level near the death of the game. i enjoyed that the boys showed plenty of fight last night. that will serve them well.







the season finale of Mayans last night was amazing.



Deadliest Catch was really good last night.


Holey Moley was crazy as usual last night.


NXT was excellent last night.













enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:

Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final is tonight. i will probably watch a little of it.



so, the local grocery store didn't have much to offer today. with the power outages we've had, it looks like they have had to throw a ton of shit out. thankfully, i was able to get most of everything today at Kroger. i will probably need to go to Meijer on Friday to get what i couldn't find today. hopefully it will be cooler by then.


tomorrow is mom's birthday. i guess she is going to try to go to physical therapy tomorrow. i'm preparing myself for the worst as she does not do well in the heat at all.


a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:

so, of course, today i had Filipino food...

my sister came down this afternoon and brought with her some Filipino food. i haven't had any of that in a long time. my sister's best friend from college is this amazing woman that is Filipino. so, i used to have it all the time, but that's over 20 years now. so, that was a welcome spice this afternoon. of course, i can't wait to see what my shit looks like after yesterday and today. joy.

the Yankees whipped the Red Sox last night, 10-3. hopefully, they do the same thing tonight.

Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was very good last night.

Room 104 was pretty funny last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

i imagine i will watch some hockey tonight as well.

the other part of my order from Amazon.com showed up today. i think i know how much more i need to buy to have everything i want to be in individual sleeves. once i get what i have done the last 2 days in order, i'll start posting some pics and prices.

i did go to the grocery store this afternoon and pick up mom's medications and my test strips for my blood sugar. i've lost some weight and i have my blood sugar pretty consistent now. i'd just like to get the number under 115 and closer to 100.

i should be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays in the Europa League semifinals. in case i'm not, here is a preview:

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.
