feels like fall almost...

 i was able to actually turn off the AC today and open up the house. other than a little rain, it felt nice to have some air moving through the house today. we got 1.75 inches of rain last night. that was a fresh slice of hell for my arthritis. good times.

Manchester United won 1-0 yesterday at home against Wolves. honestly, Wolves probably should have won the game. they outplayed United the entire game. United got away with a foul late that should have given Wolves a penalty. United needs to improve their midfield desperately if they actually want to win some shit this season. 

the Yankees got their asses handed to them last night in Atlanta, losing 11-3. i doubt much changes when they play tonight.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch, Don't Forget the Lyrics and Hard Knocks.

the Leagues Cup semifinals are tonight. Inter Miami plays at Philadelphia and Monterrey plays at Nashville. i will probably check out some of the games tonight.

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

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

one of those days...

 or maybe it is simply, i can't fucking stand Mondays. today has been one of those days where it seems like i'm just fucking stuck in first gear and don't have the ability to get going. add in my mother falling again and me screwing up my back trying to get to her and you can easily understand why i turn to alcohol on most days.

i think most of mom's falling is due to her vision being so bad she has absolutely no sense of depth perception. so, this once again will be the battle between being stubborn and asking for fucking help. as always, i'll be the one stuck in the middle, getting more frustrated by the minute. good times.

the Yankees lost to Boston last night, 3-0. it almost seems like the team is just going to coast for the rest of the season, see if they can still win the division and then flip the switch in the playoffs. great. they start a series at home tonight against Tampa Bay.

team USA defeated Sweden last night, 3-2, at the World Juniors. that means they will finish first in the group and play Czechia in the quarterfinals.

the season finale of Westworld was excellent last night. i'm hoping there will be more of the series, but if there isn't, this finale was the perfect goodbye.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

VICE was very good last night.

The Chi was really good last night.

City on a Hill was good last night.

Flatbush Misdemeanors was pretty funny last night.

Big Brother was good last night. i'm happy for Taylor.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan was fucking great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Industry.

i did listen to episode 408 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:

https://www.stitcher.com/show/sam-roberts-wrestling-podcast/episode/whos-returning-next-notsam-wrestling-408-205771428

i didn't get to bed this morning until 5 AM. i was up at 9 AM. nothing like sitting at the table at 4 AM going through the coupons after getting the dishes done and seeing your mother come out to the table, not really sure what she is doing. i keep telling her, and you wonder why i don't get to sleep much anymore.

she was supposed to have a counseling session online today but of course, that got cancelled. so now, she has to do one in the morning and i know tomorrow will be a fresh slice of hell as she is not a morning person.

thanks again to everyone that has checked out my latest published poems. i've had 9 published in the last 3 days. not bad...

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.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

wear your mask.

i always wondered what life would be like in Seattle

we have had somewhere close to 3 inches of rain here in the last 24 hours or so. not exactly fun for a guy dealing with arthritis, but that's life. thankfully, it's not nearly as bad as what other places in the country have got. but, it does remind me that i won't be living in the Pacific Northwest anytime soon in my life.

the New York Yankees got killed yesterday 12-3. if they would have won, it would have been the first time all season they would have been 5 games over .500. that should explain just how mediocre they have been this season. they start a series with Toronto tonight. this series should clearly show if they have a chance at the playoffs or not.

team USA men's basketball team won 100-97 over a France team playing without Tony Parker yesterday. if they don't get better defensively, i wouldn't be shocked if there is no gold medal this year. i did like that one sports guy pointed out the biggest hole on the team... no LeBron James. life is always easier when the best in the world is on your side.

Big Brother was pretty funny last night. i love that Paulie's game is totally fucked now. i'm sure his brother is proud.

all of the Sunday night shows were excellent last night. The Night Of was spectacular. Ballers was hilarious. Vice Principals was really funny. Power was off the charts fucking amazing. at least 3 holy shit moments last night. Ray Donovan was really good. Roadies was excellent. it showed off the immense talent that is Ron White. and as always, Last Week Tonight was brilliant:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening, weather permitting.

they are saying we are going to have thunderstorms on and off all night. good times.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts' Show Podcast today. two excellent interviews with Eric Andre and Penn Jillette. to listen to the episode, go here: http://notsam.com/srshow/2016/8/14/srshow-eric-andr-penn-jillette

i think my mother fucked up her back somehow. i think she may have a bulging disc or something like that. of course, she's stubborn, so i have no clue how long she'll go before she gets it checked out.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

amazing what a little bit of "clutch" can do...

i was watching the New York Yankees just come up empty inning after inning last night, wondering how the fuck were they able to hit David Price every other place he played but now he's Cy fucking Young in Toronto. finally in the 8th, signs of life. a couple of hits in a row. what a concept. they got Price out of the game and then Carlos Beltran showed everyone on earth what clutch looks like. a HUGE 3 run pinch hit homer that gave the Yankees the lead, 4-3. they would go on to win the game at that score, even though Andrew Miller tried his hardest to give the game away. that puts the Yankees back in first place by 1/2 game. they will hopefully increase that lead this afternoon.

i saw that Talib Kweli released a surprise new album last night, Fuck The Money, for FREE. i jumped all over that. it took me awhile to download it, i'm guessing that was most likely user error on my part. but, after i did get it downloaded, what a fucking album. it's truly fucking great. i highly recommend it. for more about it, go here:

NJPW was really good last night. Treehouse Masters was good as well. i took a nice long shower last night, hoping that would make me feel better. it worked for a few hours until the damn thunder started around 4 in the morning.

enjoy some music kids:

now laugh:

one of these mornings, i may actually try this:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH and the season finale of Power.

i'm not sure if i'm going with mom to the grocery store or not today. she seems to be doing much better than she was doing the last couple of days.

a big thank you to Janne Karlsson for the artwork this morning. hopefully one day i will be able to share it with everyone when it gets published.

i'm really enjoying having the Bundesliga on Fox Sports now. i haven't been able to watch that league for years. of course, in a week or so, i'll truly be able to drive my mother nuts when i flip from the Premier League to the Bundesliga to Serie A to Ligue 1 to La Liga. and here she worried i would never be "cultured".

that's all for me today kids. i hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday. tip your waitress, only fuck the ones that cough, buy a better cut of steak, drink the finest wine, only pay for the nightcap when you know the police aren't involved and take a moment or two to appreciate your favorite artists and poets, etc., with a large cash donation.
