i told mom last night that when she got up today, i would turn the furnace off and open up the house. as usual, she can't remember these conversations. so, when she finally got out of bed at 2 PM today, she was surprised the house was still closed up and i was napping in my massage chair. she thought i would just open the house this morning. i said i would have, but when i talked to you at 10 AM, you said you were cold. i just imagine what her life would be like if i didn't have any patience left.
the New York Rangers won last night at Minnesota, 3-2, in OT.
Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage was pretty funny last night.
i did write a poem last night about the blood moon. well, sort of about it. i was hoping to write more but only the one poem came to me.
i think i figured out why i am not sleeping well these days. the pinched nerve in my left shoulder is back. must be spring soon.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight in the A10 tournament. they will play St. Joe's around 7:30 tonight on Peacock. if Dayton wins, they will advance to the semifinals tomorrow afternoon.
Manchester United won yesterday at home in the Europa League over Real Sociedad, 4-1. Bruno had a hat trick. the game had 3 penalty kicks, a red card, just about everything.
i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow, most likely.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

they came to fix the oven today. i guess one of the wires burned out. it was a pretty easy fix and the oven went up to 450 in no time after it was fixed. the repair came with a 90 day warranty, so i'm really hoping this fix lasts for years. so, looks like i will finally make the pizza i was going to have for my birthday last week tonight.
the New York Rangers got punched in the dick yesterday, losing at home to Colorado, 5-4. Colorado scored the winning goal with 15 seconds left in the game. fuck me.
Manchester United won 1-0 yesterday at Fulham. glad they won but shit they need to play better.
i did watch both NFL games yesterday. i was really pulling for Washington and Buffalo to win, so, of course, the Eagles and Chiefs won. fuck me.

mom has all these plants in the kitchen. she woke up last night after 1 hour of sleep to see how they were and get some heat on out there. i was still up since she has the tendency to sleep walk sometimes. i told her wouldn't it make more sense to just turn the furnace up. thankfully, that logic made sense to her and she went back to sleep. one thing i can say with certainty, there will be no plants in this house once she dies.
i wrote 2 poems last night. anytime i get close to my birthday, the poems start to flow. misery and death never seem to be that far away.

as a poet that likes to network and get my poetry out there the old fashioned way, word of mouth, actually engaging with humans, i have seen all sides of the ugliness of humanity. what really pisses me off is when someone starts off in a genuine way and then within 3 fucking days, is trying to scam you. part of that makes me laugh because all i have to my name is about $15,000 worth of debt. but still, why pieces of shit are still trying these fucking scams today is just mind blowing to me. of course, it is the holidays, why wouldn't someone be trying to steal pennies from me.
the grocery store went well today. between gas, prescriptions and groceries, i spent close to $400. fuck me.
i did watch team USA yesterday at the World Juniors. they defeated Germany, 10-4.

so, as i was finishing up the blog yesterday, some kind of miracle was taking place. i wanted to wait to write about it as i knew i couldn't do it justice at the end of yesterday's blog.
Manchester United was trailing Manchester City 1-0 until the 88th minute. Amad got tackled in the box and it was an obvious penalty. Bruno stepped up and scored to make it 1-1. less than 2 minutes later, Amad made a great run behind and Lisandro Martinez made a great pass. a little flick from Amad to go around the keeper and some more foolish defending from City and it was 2-1 United. they held on win the derby and the town is now red again. given that the day started with Rashford and Garnacho being told to stay home, this will go down as the day Ruben Amorim truly made his marker as the next great Manchester United coach. i'm really hoping this will galvanize the club and the march up the table will now begin.
the New York Rangers lost at St. Louis last night, 3-2.
i did watch Joker: Folie a Deux last night. i thought it was better than what most people thought, but clearly a fever dream in an acid trip with some music. parts of it i really liked and parts of it i was basically falling asleep. let's just say, i didn't keep it on the DVR.
The Agency was excellent last night.
Dexter: Original Sin was good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and the series finale of What We Do in the Shadows.
there are two NFL games tonight. i doubt i watch much of either.
i did make a trip to the bank today to make a deposit.
it has been raining all day it seems. i did get a nice long nap in this morning with some ice on my back.
the New Orleans Saints lost at home to Washington yesterday, 20-19. at least the Saints made it interesting late.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i'm still waiting on 2 gifts for my mother to show up. at least i know both are in the United States, so that's a good sign.
and i think the stuff i sent in the mail actually got to where it was supposed to go today.
i did get 3 Christmas cards in the mail today. that was unexpected.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

so it has rained most of today. so, my arthritis has been raging most of the day. i got a few Christmas cards out. i'm hoping to get the majority of them done tonight and out to the mailbox. i did go to the post office today. had to send the muse her Christmas gifts and wanted to get some more forever stamps.
i wasn't surprised last night when i got the news of Juan Soto going to the Mets. i knew he would always go to the highest bidder and that was always going to be the Mets. now, i'm basically wondering what the Yankees will do. they have plenty of holes they need to fill and will hopefully start soon.
the New York Rangers lost yesterday at home against Seattle, 7-5. they play tonight at home against Chicago.
the New Orleans Saints won yesterday at the Giants, 14-11. Derek Carr broke his hand on his non throwing arm so he's done for the year.

i did watch some of the Packers and Eagles game last night.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.

so, the guy from Orkin was here today. they did a full inspection of the house and figured out that we have a fucking family of squirrels living in the attic. now, their fix for this is to remove all the insulation, disinfect everything, replace the insulation and close up all the places the fucking flying rats have been getting in. they also are going to put a shield over our gutters as part of that. and for shits and giggles, we're going to protect for termites just in fucking case. so, basically, this will cost the money set aside for a new vehicle. so, i guess the 2002 Toyota Highlander will have to survive another decade or so. good times. not exactly how i wanted to spend an afternoon while it snows on and off today. fuck me.
i did watch the NCAA selection show yesterday. Dayton was one of the last four teams called. fuck me. they are a #7 seed in the West. they will play #10 seed Nevada on Thursday in Salt Lake City, Utah. now, the ironic thing is this is the same city Dayton started their run to the elite eight 40 years ago. i would love to see a repeat of that, but i'm not holding my breath.
