well, thank god i didn't watch

 i was out getting things from Kroger today when Manchester United was playing Bayern Munich at home in the Champions League. i dreaded what could happen today and sure enough, it did. United needed to win today and hope that the other game in the group would end up a draw. well, United lost 1-0 and Copenhagen won 1-0. all that means is United finished last in the group and won't advance in the Champions League and won't qualify for the Europa League either. if ETH wants to somehow keep his job as manager, i'm guessing he will have to somehow win at Liverpool on the weekend. if the second part of this doomsday scenario takes place, i'm guessing United will have a new manager by Christmas.

Monday Night Raw was very good last night.

The Voice was great last night. i have no damn clue who is going home tonight.

Big Brother: Reindeer Games was pretty good last night.

gearing up for a long ass week...

 now that mom is back into physical therapy, the weeks are going to be micro-managed to death. between her appointments and all the other shit i have to do, time to write this blog, poetry, etc. is going to have to be squeezed in where it can. so, don't be shocked if this blog has no set timetable for the next few weeks. i would love to get it done tomorrow in the morning as she has physical therapy in the afternoon and then i'm hoping to get an appointment to get my blood drawn. and of course, she wants to get her blood drawn at the same time. 

the New York Rangers won at Florida yesterday, 4-3. thankfully, the "kid line" saved them after getting down 2-0. the boys are now just 2 points from clinching a playoff spot.

i did watch some MLS games last night:

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

half of the Final Four is now set. should be interesting to see who gets the final two spots today.

AEW Rampage was pretty good last night.

i'm sure i will watch some hockey today as well as college basketball.

the wind finally has moved out of the area. thankfully, our power never went out. i certainly don't miss the windy days on the farm, always worrying about which tree was going to clip which power line.

if all goes well, i will be on here in the morning tomorrow. if not, the blog will be much later in the afternoon.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...

up too early on a Sunday morning...

 i was up at 7 this morning. i didn't sleep well, mostly because it rained most of the night. the ache i feel anymore in my bones, it is screaming for illegal drugs. i get the feeling an accidental overdose might be the last horizon of fun i have on this earth. 

i did go to Lowe's yesterday and got a few things for the tomatoes. i'm hoping the bamboo stakes i got are going to work. after that, i went to Big Lots hoping to find some cards. i had a $5 off coupon i wanted to use. thankfully, i found 2 packs of 2021 Topps Heritage and 2 packs of 2021 Score football. the best card in the Heritage packs was a Mike Trout card. the best card in Score packs was a Trevor Lawrence rookie card.

the Yankees won last night in Houston, 1-0. Gerrit Cole pitched a complete game, three hit shutout. Aaron Judge hit a solo home run and trolled Altuve perfectly as he rounded third base. i'm hoping the Yankees get the sweep this afternoon.

ROH was very good last night.

Argentina defeated Brazil last night, 1-0, to win the Copa America. Messi finally won something for his country. it was the first time Argentina won a big tournament since 1993. it was also the first time Brazil lost a Copa America that was being held in Brazil.

the Euro 2020 final is today. England is trying to end 55 years of misery. i would love to see them do it, but i have been riding Italy the entire tournament and i'm not going to stop now.

the USMNT plays Haiti tonight as they start in the Gold Cup. 

Game 3 of the NBA Finals is tonight as well. hopefully, i'll catch some of that.

i didn't watch Judas and the Black Messiah last night. i'm saving it in case we get storms today like they are saying we will. then i'll watch the movie when the satellite is out.

i should be on here in the morning tomorrow, most likely.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hope your Sunday will be even better.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

pain and frustration, what a mix...

so, last night, the pain in mom's side got worse. of course, pride is the thing holding her back from having it looked at. until a sleepless night and then she finally called the doctor and started to bitch and complain. i guess tomorrow i will take her to get a x-ray of her ribs. i just got back from picking up the muscle relaxers the doctor ordered her today. of course, Medicare wanted him to fill out more paperwork before they would pay for it. she said fuck it, and just go pay for it. thankfully, it wasn't too expensive. that was my second trip to the store today to pick up pills. i had two prescriptions for myself i had to get. i start my physical therapy the day before i get a camera shoved down my throat. i made another trip to Meijer today. their website said what i was looking for yesterday was in. of course, it wasn't. but, i brought the frame sizes i needed along with me, so i got that done today. i had 4 pieces of art that needed frames. and to top off this random long ass note to start this blog off, i wrote 3 poems last night. i typed those up at 5 in the morning. i got to bed around 6 and was up at 9. joy.

the Cardinals and the Nationals advanced yesterday to the NLCS. that should be an interesting series.

i probably will watch some of the ALDS Game 5 tonight.

NXT was really good last night.

AEW was really good last night as well.

American Horror Story was crazy last night.

Cake was awesome last night.

The Masked Singer was good last night.

24/7 College Football was about Penn State last night. i had a few good laughs when they all thought they are the best team in the Big Ten.

i really have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow. the way my mother is having trouble breathing, i think a rib might have punctured a lung. and if that is the case, i'm going to guess that i might not have a chance to squeeze in a blog tomorrow between that and grocery shopping and whatever the fuck else i need to do. worst case scenario, i might do the blog around 4 or 5 in the morning, who knows.

i suppose i should take a shower tonight sometime.

that's all for me kids. until whenever...

my patience with humanity is running thin...

so i ran out of this medication today, but i figured it wouldn't be a problem because my pharmacy was supposed to have the new prescription ready when it was my next time to take it. silly me. a hour after it was supposed to be ready, i called the pharmacy. after being on hold for 20 minutes, i finally got to speak to someone. i explained what was going on and they said they would have it ready in 30 minutes. this is the drug that helps with my pinched nerve in my neck. so, in about 45 minutes, the phone rang saying it was ready. by this point, agony was setting in. i got up to the pharmacy and of course, had to wait in line. and then, of course, they had to find the medicine they just filled. the other one i was picking up had been ready since Saturday. then, of course, on the way home. i was stuck behind a woman going 40 in a 55. then i nearly hit a girl in the cul-de-sac who wasn't paying attention on her bicycle. it just never fails... good times.

i had this amazing conversation last night with this Mexican princess in Colorado. we probably talked until 4 in the morning. why the fuck is it that everyone i click with lives so damn far away?

the New York Yankees won yesterday at Tampa, 7-1. of course, that dump down there had a power outage in the top of the 9th inning. what a joke. the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Baltimore. hopefully they can keep on winning.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs yesterday:

i am loosely keeping track of what is going on in the hockey world championships going on in Slovakia. team USA has won 2 games in a row now. two drinks for me...

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i think i need to get some writing done in the morning. if that happens, i'll be on here after i get some typing done.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

the weather is still gloomy and cold here. of course, by the end of the week it's supposed to be in the upper 70's. joy.

it had to stop sometime...

the New Orleans Saints lost yesterday to the Rams, 26-20. given the injuries the Saints had on defense going into the game, the result did not surprise me. i wasn't that surprised that the offense struggled for a good portion of the game either. what did surprise me was why the coach waited so long to just let it loose and go. once it looked like he just let Drew Brees do what he wanted, things started to click. oh well, now the fun really begins. they are still tied for first place in the division, with the team they playing next, Carolina.

the New York Rangers started slow once again yesterday, falling behind to Vancouver 2-0 before they scored. the Rangers quickly tied it early in the 3rd, only to give back the lead 40 seconds later. thankfully, they tied the game later in the period to send the game to overtime. nothing got settled in OT, so the game went to a shootout. the Rangers went second for a change and ended up winning in the 7th round of the shootout. that's 8 straight wins at home. they play again tomorrow night at home against Florida.

Curb Your Enthusiasm was fucking hilarious last night. i can't wait for the season finale next week.

Shameless was excellent last night.

SMILF was great as well. it reminded me that i was baptized on April Fool's Day when i was a kid. the irony makes me smile to this day.

mom and i went to Lowe's this afternoon to get my sister some things she'll need as a homeowner for Christmas.

that was basically all the shopping i did today. some of the gifts i ordered before Thanksgiving started arriving. that's good.

i will probably be on here tomorrow sometime before Manchester United plays.

just enough rain to be...

this is why i hate weather forecasts. today was supposed to be rain free. sure enough, it started in the morning and hasn't stopped yet. and today was the day i had to drive mom down south of town (45 minutes) to her financial planner. this was my first time meeting him.

the meeting went well. i like that he has a pretty solid plan for her 401K and her other investments. he also knows the stock market isn't going to be like this forever, so not all the eggs are in one basket. i got a much better impression of him than the one mom had been giving me over the years.

after that, we went out to a late lunch/early dinner at Longhorn Steakhouse.

the New Orleans Saints won yesterday against Chicago, 20-12. the Bears really outplayed the Saints for most of the game. so, i'm really happy the Saints held on to win. they next play Tampa Bay at home.

the season finale of Ray Donovan was pretty good last night. i'm wondering how much the show is going to change now that it's going to be filmed in NYC.

the season finale of The Deuce was excellent last night. i can't wait for the next season.

i am really looking forward to seeing how the New York Yankees do in the wild card game tonight. they have so many young guys who haven't played in the playoffs before, i'm wondering if they take advantage of the opportunity or does the moment swallow them whole? hopefully the Yankees beat the Twins tonight as i would love to see them throw a damn wrench in the plans of the Cleveland Indians.

i wrote 3 poems this afternoon. i haven't typed them up yet, mostly because i'm hoping there are more to come. i did figure out where my next 11 poems are going to. i'll most likely send those out tomorrow morning.

Monday Night Raw was ok last night. it's hard to say a show was good when the best part of it was right when it was going off of the air. i can't wait to see The Shield back together next week.

so much for a sunny day...

when i went out to get the newspaper this morning, it was already muggy as hell. i looked at the clouds and figured we might get a little rain. about 45 minutes later, it was fucking pouring. 3 hours after that, still fucking pouring. we don't get showers anymore, we get flood warnings. at least the grass got cut yesterday. i suppose i really shouldn't have put out the new solar lights and all the bird food. oh well.

the trip to Menards was pretty good yesterday. i found most of what i was looking for, plus a few things that were cheaper than at the grocery store. i kept it under $100, so mom was pleased.

the New York Yankees pissed away a great comeback yesterday and lost 7-6 to Toronto. thank fucking god they are off today. they start a series against the Brewers to take them into the All Star break.

NXT was really good last night. the match between Roderick Strong and Bobby Roode was excellent.

Lucha Underground was good last night.

Snowfall was outstanding last night. i usually will give any new show on FX a try and i'm so happy i decided to watch this one. i will definitely watch this whole season. between the music, the drugs and the acting, fucking fantastic.

mom has her second physical therapy session this evening. i believe it's going to be on a Monday and Thursday rotation for the next few weeks.

mom had wanted to go out shopping this morning, but she doesn't do well in the rain either. welcome to the house of arthritis.

i think it has rained on and off for the last 15 hours. i have a dull ache in my head that has been with me all day. coffee didn't do a thing for it, neither has any medicine. good times.

the Dayton Flyers got off to a slow start yesterday. thankfully, Saint Louis is inept enough they couldn't take advantage of it. Dayton won yesterday 67-46. with Richmond and La Salle both losing yesterday, Dayton is now in first place by itself. they will travel to VCU on Friday.

the New York Rangers won yesterday 1-0 in overtime at Detroit. holy shit, a winning streak. they play again tonight at home against the L.A. Kings.

The Young Pope was really good last night. i can't wait to see what happens tonight.

Homeland was pretty interesting last night. of course, if you have seen the whole series, you could see all this coming a mile away.

The Affair had a holy shit ending last night. i'm guessing the season finale next week will be a complete mindfuck.

The Rolling Stones: Havana Moon was excellent. Cuba is definitely a place i'd love to go to before i die.

neither of the NFL playoff games were good yesterday. so it's going to be Atlanta vs. New England in the Super Bowl. as a Saints fan, i'm wondering if there is a way both teams can lose.

the silly season has begun

some people think of July 1st as Happy Canada Day. i think of it as the day the sports world goes fucking nuts and no names become millionaires because someone has to take the money.

free agency began in the NBA and NHL today. i did see the couple of moves the New York Rangers made. i don't mind either player, as long as they are depth guys and guys to help kill penalties. if either are being asked to be top 6 forwards, the GM is fucking nuts.

their best move of the day was probably naming Jeff Beukeboom as assistant coach. one of my favorite Rangers on that 1994 team.

but the thing that put the biggest smile on my face today was this:

i don't give a shit that he's 34. i don't care that he has one of the biggest egos i have ever seen on an athlete. the one thing the man has always done is produce. and Manchester United needs a guy who just fucking scores goals.

i was sad to see the news that Ryan Giggs is leaving Manchester United after 29 years. whatever job he does next, he will ALWAYS be one of the greatest ever to wear that jersey. be well Giggsy.

the New York Yankees won on a walk off passed ball yesterday, 2-1. i guess the sun can find a dog's ass two days in a row. they start a 10 game road trip tonight in San Diego.

Euro 2016 Update:
when Poland scored in the first 2 minutes yesterday, i was thinking it was going to be a great game. when Portugal made it 1-1 30 minutes later, i was really happy. what happened next was Poland played not to lose and Portugal played to win. as you might imagine, it turned out just like that. Portugal won on penalty kicks 5-3. today, Wales takes on Belgium. that should be a doozy.

Big Brother went as i expected last night. i guess i've watched the show long enough to even expect the twists now.

WWE Smackdown was pretty good last night.

the haircut went pretty good yesterday. the stylist said i looked completely different than when i came in. i told her that was the plan. we went to the grocery store as well yesterday as mom didn't want to go in the rain today. it was raining this morning and will probably do so again. at least that's what my bones are telling me.

mom got me some new clothes. they came in the mail today. i guess she doesn't want me to look like a bum when we're on vacation. little does she know...

from a mighty wind to the cold sunshine

when i happened to look outside last night and noticed both our trash can and recyclable bin both turned over, i believe the first word out of my mouth was fuck. it was windy as hell last night. nothing quite like going from the 50's to a windchill in the single digits. i went out and brought both up to the house. i put them back down at the street when i woke up this morning. when i took mom to her appointment, i believe we saw some of our recyclables about 5 doors down. good times.

when the Dayton Flyers were down by 11 last night with 11 minutes left in the game, i was not a happy camper. thankfully, Scoochie decided to take the game over and Dayton went on an incredible run to win the game 85-84. this was a game Dayton desperately needed to win. plus, it's always fun to ruin someone's senior night. that being said, Dayton's senior night comes up on Saturday against VCU. that could be for the league title.

The Muppets was really good last night. i love how the show got better each week as the season went along.

Total Divas was hilarious last night.

The Voice was pretty good as well last night. i enjoyed a few of the performances:

i wrote 8 poems today while in the waiting room of my mother's physical therapy session. i typed them up when we got back home and i do think i have a couple winners in the batch.

i got that done in time to watch Manchester United play today. they had a big opportunity to pull even with Manchester Shitty on points in the Premier League if they won and Shitty lost. well, amazingly, Liverpool took care of Shitty 3-0 and United got a glorious goal from Juan Mata to win 1-0. i'll gladly enjoy that victory beer later this evening.

i now have to go figure out dinner. if it's what i usually do, i'll be going somewhere to pick something up. i believe physical therapy kicked mom's ass pretty good today.

i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. i believe we are supposed to get snow. so much for that one day of fucking spring.

i hope this finds everyone in a warm place (use your dirty imagination please)

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...

music:

Korn - Freak on a Leash
Kaleo - All the Pretty Girls
Chris Isaak - Wicked Game
Asking Alexandria - The Black
