so, i made it to the doctor's office for my appointment today. my A1C was up, which means the Rybelsus did absolutely nothing for me. the only numbers i really liked was my blood pressure. after the appointment was over, they sent me upstairs to get some x-rays done on my left shoulder and elbow. those came back normal. oh well. i did get my flu shot today.
i took a little nap after i got home. the guy that cuts our grass woke me up as he was blowing the leaves around. hopefully, this will be the last time he has to mow the grass.
well, Manchester United lost yesterday at home to Tottenham, 3-0. Bruno got a weak red card which really baffles me that VAR couldn't tell just how weak the red card was. fuck, even the commentators that dislike Manchester United said it was harsh. but, just more of the same. i'm not sure what the disconnect is between ETH and the team.
the New Orleans Saints lost at Atlanta yesterday, 26-24.
the Yankees beat the Pirates yesterday at home, 6-4. they finished the season 94-68. they have the #1 seed in the American League playoffs. they will face either the Royals or Orioles on October 5th to start the ALDS.
the season finale of Industry was excellent last night.
Big Brother was good last night.
Power Book II: Ghost was really good last night. next week is the series finale.
The Penguin was awesome last night.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
enjoy some music:

so, i woke up this morning after a somewhat decent night of sleep and as soon as i started getting out of bed, i heard my back pop. my first thought was i guess the weed gummy has worn off. i do think that was the reason i slept well at least. so, for the last 10 hours or so, i have been stretching my back and icing and feeling like shit. joy.
the Yankees spilt their doubleheader yesterday at home against the Angels. they won game 1, 5-2. they lost game 2, 8-2. hopefully, they will win tonight.
Big Brother was really good last night. i have no clue who gets evicted tonight.
AEW Dynamite was good last night.
some of the baseball cards i ordered showed up today. i got the first 2024 cards i have been able to order this year. i was hoping for some better rookies... the packs i got from Golden Lion Sports Cards were excellent. the Kirby Puckett rookie card was a nice shock.
i did catch some of the Olympics today. the USA men's basketball team had a huge comeback to defeat Serbia today, 95-91. they will play France for the gold medal.

so, i was really hoping i was going to be talking about a Rangers victory today. instead, i was shaving off my beard last night, wondering yet again, what the fuck happened. the Rangers lost last night at New Jersey, 4-0, to lose the series 4-3. judging from the postgame comments, i really think the Rangers are going to have to make some changes to the team. and that is going to be difficult as they have some big name big price players that need to move and there won't be many teams willing to do anything unless the Rangers will be eating some of the contracts. so, i'm going to be really curious to see what Chris Drury does this summer to the roster. it is painfully obvious, they need more will and less skill as that skill never fucking showed up in the playoffs.
the New York Yankees are now inventing ways to lose. they were up 2-0 last night on Cleveland and Aaron Boone needlessly took out his starter after 88 pitches to go to his closer and sure enough, Cleveland scored 3 runs in the 9th to win, 3-2. between the injuries, bad luck and incompetence, the Yankees are in last place in the division. joy.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:
Monday Night Raw was good last night.
The Voice was really good last night.
That's My Jam was hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be NXT, MLW and Deadliest Catch.
i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.
the New York Knicks play Game 2 tonight at home against Miami. hopefully, the Knicks will find a way to even the series.
i went to the bank today and Rite Aid. i also stopped by Walgreens and Big Lots, looking for baseball cards. amazingly, i found not only some baseball cards, but some football and hockey cards.
i need to pick up the trash tonight and get dinner going.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.

as you might imagine, i haven't done much today. check emails and basically ice my back down. rinse and fucking repeat. joy.
the Yankees won last night over the Reds, 7-6, in 10 innings. hopefully, the Yankees win the series tonight.
Big Brother was good last night. my guess is Taylor will be evicted tonight. i'm hoping i'm wrong and there are some hijinks in store. ok, i just checked my Big Brother twitter sources and i have no fucking clue what is going to happen tonight. that should be fun to watch.
AEW was fantastic last night. i am so happy for Keith Lee and Swerve.
enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother and The Old Man. i already watched NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock. it was excellent.
the USWNT takes on Costa Rica tonight in the semifinals of the CONCACAF women's tournament.

so, any fun or any anything i wanted to do yesterday was cut short by the rain. mom did get her new rollator. it looks really good. hopefully she will get used to do it soon. i need to get all the plants she got yesterday planted today. i told her to be up by noon or i was going to plant them however i wanted to. she has a hour to go.
i did watch the FA Cup final yesterday as i was getting a baseball card order ready for next month. i hated watching Liverpool win yet again.
the New York Yankees lost last night to the White Sox, 3-2. they can still win the series with a victory this afternoon.
i did watch all 3 Game 7's yesterday in the NHL. here are the highlights:
there are 4 Game 7's today, 2 in the NHL and 2 in the NBA. that should be fun, hopefully.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night. next week is the season finale.
i did watch a little of the MLS last night.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Barry, The Baby, Last Week Tonight, Gaslit, VICE, The Man Who Fell to Earth and Ziwe.
the New York Rangers play Game 7 tonight at home against Pittsburgh. i'm really hoping the Rangers play their best game of the series tonight. if they win, they will face Carolina in the next round of the playoffs.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
so, i woke up when i wanted to this morning. made my coffee. had my breakfast. and then, just as i was getting into a groove and getting everything ready to leave, i had to shit. and today was one of those days i didn't make it to the bathroom in time. oh joy. then, comes the joy of having a bad back and trying to clean up shit. well, i had to shower anyway...
first up was the post office. that went pretty quick. next up, a trip to the bank. there was a new woman working at the bank. i chuckled when she asked for my driver's license when i said i wanted my balance. the other lady working said how are you doing Mr. Campbell? after that was done, i went grocery shopping. i basically went to the local grocery store and got what i would get on Wednesday today. one of the guys that works there always talks to me when i have my Saints stuff on. he asked me what size jersey i wear? i told him it had been so long since i wore a jersey, i have no clue. he then tells me he's got all these New Orleans Saints jerseys laying around his house. i told him i do collect sports memorabilia, so if he just wants to get rid of them, i'll take them. he said he's going to put them in his car and the next time he sees me, they are mine. i guess they are of Drew Brees and Reggie Bush. i found pretty much everything i was looking for at the store.
made it back home a little bit after 1 PM. hopefully, i will only have a few things to get tomorrow at Kroger. if the weather is nice, i'm probably going to go to Menard's as well.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. i loved the Edge heel turn. that match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania should be amazing.
both episodes of Better Things last night were excellent.
so i guess the MLB owners just cancelled the first two series of the season. i always love when the owners get pissed at the player's salaries. who the fuck are the ones paying them in the first place? and since it is a lockout and not a strike, i hope baseball fans understand it is once again the owners fucking up the sport.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be NXT.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at Richmond. they need to win either tonight or against Davidson at home on Saturday if they want to guarantee a double bye in the A10 tournament. i hope Dayton wins tonight, but it won't be easy.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get all the shopping done.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
mom is back home from her surgery. she had the skin cancer from her face removed. the cancer was right above her lip, so of course, it was a little gruesome, at least from the picture my sister sent me. but, they got most of it on the first try. mom said he missed a little spot and got that the second time. they took some skin from her collarbone to graph to reform the lip. the stitches on the lip will dissolve. i have to take her Feb. 1st to the office to get the stitches removed on her collarbone. fun times.
today would be my grandmother's 110th birthday. part of me laughs at what she would think about this fucked up world now.
the New York Rangers defeated Toronto last night, 6-3. my family knows how i get, so when the Rangers got down 2-0 last night, i turned the game off. so, i did follow the game on my phone, but i know there was enough stress in the house already. i love that Ryan Reaves had his first two goals as a Ranger last night.
I Can See Your Voice was hilarious last night.
Batwoman was excellent last night.
AEW was great last night.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Young Sheldon, United States of Al and B Positive. i watched NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock. it was really good.
i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i turn 46 tomorrow. i don't have any plans. i'm guessing this is how the rest of my life will most likely be.
i need to go pick up some pills at Rite Aid, so that's all for me kids.

today was one of those days where i'm all out of tears. just one gut punch after another. one of those days where i'll be drinking whiskey tonight, apologizing to my 8 year-old self, knowing damn well he was right. death was the obvious choice to make. it could have saved me from all of this shit.
so, my mother had an appointment today at the dermatologist. she has this spot above her lip that her cardiologist told her to get it checked out. as soon as the doctor walked in, she bluntly said, yeah, that's cancer. they numbed my mother up and took a sample off to get the pathology of it. once they have that, she will be recommended to the specialists 30 minutes away for them to remove it. there is about an inch or so of her lip that will be removed. the dermatologist said hopefully they get all of it and can give her a patch job that gives her lip integrity. mom has had this spot for about 6 or 7 years. i can't be the asshole today and scream why the fuck did you wait so long. she already feels bad enough.
so, after that, we had to go get her new glasses. hopefully, they will help her see better. both the glasses and sunglasses look good on her.
after that, i took her to Burger King to get her frozen Coke and it was straight back home.
when we walked into the office, Manchester United was up 1-0. CR7 yet again. as we were walking out, i noticed United was down to 10 men because of a straight red card to one of their defenders. and then sometime before i pulled into the garage at home, Young Boys had tied the game at 1. i went in and found the game on television, just in time to watch Jesse Lingard make a disastrous back pass that went straight to the American on Young Boys, who calmly slotted it in the goal in the dying seconds of the game. so, United lost 2-1 to a team they shouldn't ever be losing to. now, it's not the end of the world, but it also means they have no room for error in the rest of the group stage games in the Champions League.
and to top off this day of shit, i found out Norm Macdonald died. and of course, it was from cancer. he was one of my favorite comedians ever. rest in peace and thanks for all the laughs.
the Yankees got down 5-0 yesterday to the Twins. but, since they were playing the Twins, the Yankees came back to win the game 6-5 in 10 innings. honestly, when the Yankees went down 4-0 in the first, i stopped watching. i put on some soccer and caught up on some sleep. the Yankees start a series tonight in Baltimore.
Monday Night Raw was good last night. i am so damn happy for Big E.
enjoy some music:

i did watch a good portion of the Monday Night Football game last night. that was fucking crazy.

so, i was up at 6:30 this morning to watch Manchester United play. thankfully, i had the tv on in time to see them unveil Raphael Varane as their latest signing this summer. he should greatly improve their defense. the crowd was electric all game long. United was up 1-0 at half. Leeds came out on fire in the second and quickly leveled the game. then, came one of the great fuck off performances from the boys that i haven't seen in ages. they scored the next 4 goals and eventually won the game over Leeds, 5-1. Bruno had a hat trick and Paul Pogba had 4 assists. Sancho came on late to give the fans one last chance to really cheer. damn near the perfect way to start a season.
Smackdown was good last night.
205 Live was good last night.
