so, i thought i was going to have this Monday where i was going to try to squeeze everything in. turns out, that wasn't the case. mom wasn't feeling good when i woke her up this morning. so, she cancelled her physical therapy appointment at noon. and then i thought she had an appointment to get the battery on her iPhone changed. but, i guess she thought she made the appointment for today but actually made it for tomorrow and they don't have the batteries in stock. so, she cancelled that as i have an eye doctor's appointment tomorrow. so, i was able to get to the bank without feeling rushed at all. and i got in a decent nap this afternoon.
the New York Yankees lost yesterday at Colorado, 8-7, in 11 innings. they start a series tonight at the Angels.
Mexico won the Gold Cup yesterday, defeating Panama 1-0.
The Righteous Gemstones was fucking hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.
i did listen to episode 456 of Notsam Wrestling this afternoon, you can hear that by going here:
i am of the age where Kenny Rogers was definitely a part of my childhood. between the late 70's and early 80's, you couldn't escape those songs. i was saddened to see he died overnight. but, with how crazy this fucking world is now, i'm sure he's in a better place. and i want to thank him, as his death woke up the genius in me and the pen found the paper this morning.
i wrote 7 poems this morning, my first poems in over a fucking month. i typed them up and i think most of them are really good. hopefully, i will have a few more poems in me tomorrow.
Smackdown was good last night, as was 205 Live.
The Trade was really good last night. the season finale is next week.
High Maintenance was great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be ROH.
well, it did get down to the upper 20's last night. i didn't sleep very well. shocker.
i forgot to mention that Obi Toppin was the only player who was voted unanimous first team All-American yesterday. that was nice to see, even though i'm always going to have the great What If with this fucking season. hopefully he wins more awards and i do hope Coach Grant wins the national coach of the year.
i may have to go to the grocery store tomorrow to return some shit my mother forgot to tell me to return weeks ago. joy.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm guessing late morning/early afternoon if all goes well.
that's all for me kids.
i hope your Saturday hasn't been too fucking boring.
stay healthy and until tomorrow...
ignorar al presidente y escuchar a los doctores por favor
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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
knock on wood about a thousand times, but it looks like the shitty (pun intended) health i had for the last 48 hours has finally passed on. yesterday evening i finally started to feel better and could eat without racing to the toilet within seconds. hopefully, it was just a bug that i had. and hopefully something i don't get again for a long time.
the Yankees lost last night 5-4. CC struggled which sadly is the norm now. they came back to tie the score but committed the baseball sin of giving up runs right after you score. when that happens, nine times out of ten, the baseball gods will rule against you. oh well. they play again this afternoon in the rubber match of the series.
Saturday Night Live was a bit flat for me last night. there was a couple of really funny moments but nothing that was holy shit, that was funny. i'm actually amazed i stayed up for all of it.
ROH was excellent last night. you can never go wrong anytime Kevin Steen and The Briscoes are involved.
Manchester United drew 1-1 today with Southampton. not sure why they started so badly today, but United played much better in the second half. they couldn't finish worth a shit today. Juan Mata had a beautiful free kick that tied the score. thankfully, this season is over and there will be no European football at Old Trafford next season for the first time in a quarter century. hopefully they hire the right man for the rebuilding job.
tonight will be utter chaos for me. the New York Rangers play a MUST WIN game 6. somehow, after that i'm going to try to fit in the normal Sunday night shows with the addition of the show i am really looking forward to, Penny Dreadful. i have high hopes for that one. if i do pull this off, i'll be up until about 4 in the morning. lovely. that's the joy of DIRECTV, i get all the west coast feeds of HBO and Showtime.
hope everyone is having a wonderful Mother's Day. that is all for me today as i believe i'm going to try to nap most of the afternoon. my mother seemed to enjoy what i got her. or at least she acted like she did. i'll be on tomorrow in the afternoon i suppose.
peace and chicken grease my enemies...
