hello anger, i remember you...

 so, i just got off the phone with someone at Humana. my Medicaid cards didn't show up again today. the lady told me they were mailed out on the 24th. i said when i called last week, i was told they were mailed out on the 21st. she tells me they were requested on the 21st, but mailed out on the 24th. give it a little more time. i wanted to fucking scream. so yeah, i have an appointment later today to get my blood work done. i won't be fasting like the doctor wanted. they'll get over it. i have to check in online for my doctor's appointment tomorrow. i was hoping to have my new insurance for that. and i have pills i need to pick up. fuck me.

the Yankees won yesterday, 12-3, to sweep the Brewers. they are off today and start a series tomorrow at home against Arizona.

my luck ran out yesterday on college basketball. i only got 2 of the Final Four right.

The Americas was good last night, at least what i got to see. we had storms most of the night and tornado watches and warnings.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

Yellowjackets was fucking insane, as usual.

why would it go any different...

 so, do you think the Medicaid cards came in the mail yesterday? do you think the mail was delivered at a time where i could actually get in touch with someone at Humana about those Medicaid cards? the obvious answer is no. by the time the mail came yesterday, the Saturday hours were over at Humana. there was no point to bitch and scream at mom, she had nothing to do with this. anyone that knows me, when i get really quiet, there is nothing but pure evil going through my head. now, i have to at least assume the cards will be in the mail on Monday. then, i need to get all that shit i have wanted to do for the last 4 fucking days done before i have my doctor's appointment on Tuesday. and the next shoe to drop... i have 1 pill left in my Rybelsus prescription. if the Medicaid cards don't show up, i need to come up with 3 grand to be able to get those pills. and they tell me death isn't a reasonable option at this point...

the Yankees won yesterday at home against the Brewers, 20-9. the Yankees hit 3 home runs on the first 3 pitches of the game. craziest fucking shit i have ever seen. Aaron Judge ended up hitting 3 of the team's 9 total home runs. he had 8 RBI in the game. they go for the sweep of the Brewers today.

the New York Rangers won last night at San Jose, 6-1.

i did watch some of March Madness last night.

AEW Collision was ok last night.

SNL was good last night.

i did watch the movie Queer last night. i am a huge fan of William S. Burroughs, so i was really looking forward to this movie. it didn't disappoint. 

enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be The Americas, The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones, Last Week Tonight, Power Book III: Raising Kanan and Yellowjackets.

it is supposed to rain here today. hopefully, it stays cloudy and we avoid all the massive storms they are predicting tonight.

the weather took a turn to the cold last night. that might be why i slept a little better. i woke up this morning and mom was in her massage chair sleeping. by the time i got done with breakfast, she was back in her bed. i think the health problems she has been having here recently have really gotten to her. the projectile vomiting yesterday had some end of life shit attached to it. good times.

the First Four games start tomorrow at UD Arena. if i had those tickets still, i would make a killing selling them with North Carolina, Xavier and Texas coming.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

 so, i had to go to the bank today and to Kroger to get my pills. the bank took forever. i think they had one woman working the inside and drive-thru. so, by the time i left there and got to Kroger, the pharmacy was on their lunch break. so, i decided i might as well try to remember what was on the grocery list and get it done while they were on break. i got everything i could remember (it was all but 2 items that i forgot) and then got it line at the pharmacy. checkout for the groceries was very interesting. the register wasn't taking off the right amounts on certain things. i will give the lady running it credit, she was on it. thankfully, what i got cost less than $100, and that includes my pills. 

the New York Rangers won last night at home against Nashville, 4-0. they play tonight at home against the Islanders. the Rangers are 2 points out of a playoff spot.

 i'm going to start this blog off with the WWE Elimination Chamber from last night. i was pleasantly shocked that the whole show was better than i was expecting. of course, what everyone is talking about now is John Cena finally turning heel. teaming with the Rock to destroy Cody Rhodes was not on my bingo card. as one person put it last night, the road to WrestleMania just went from 0 to 100 pretty fucking fast.

the Dayton Flyers won yesterday at home against Richmond, 74-64, in 2 OT.

the New York Rangers made a trade yesterday with Colorado. the Rangers will play later tonight at home against Nashville.

i was up early enough this morning to watch the Manchester United game. they lost on penalty kicks at home to Fulham. that knocks them out of the FA Cup. fuck me.

 my mom asked me last night if i thought she was going to die before spring? how the fuck do i answer that? i replied to her, what do you want to hear? i know why she is depressed. it is coming up on the 23rd anniversary of her second husband's death. she has never stopped grieving that. i never expect her to as i know there is no time table for the grieving process. i also know she is in pain and nothing is working to help her really. what pisses me off is she won't ask for help until she absolutely needs it. and then, will get mad at me for helping her because apparently i don't do it the way she wants me to. i'm trying to keep my cool and remain calm, but i know how i have no patience for this kind of shit. this is where i have to just give her as much space as possible and hope she comes to her fucking senses at some point and just lets me do this shit. it is painfully obvious that this world has past her by now.

now back to reality...

welcome to Sunday boys and girls. yesterday was a very long day for me, mostly because i watched mom struggle all day. first off, i watched her fall in her bedroom basically because she was doing stupid shit. why you would need to answer the phone on a Saturday morning after it had stopped ringing is beyond me. add in that it was dark, she can't see worth a shit and once again, wasn't using her rollator. i do understand that accidents happen. i also understand that most of them are preventable. on top of that, she bitched about her laundry yesterday. i reminded her if she actually needs help, just fucking ask. instead, she likes to play this passive aggressive bullshit that honestly drives me up a fucking wall. so, that was most of my yesterday. good times.
