pulling the weeds yesterday took more out of me than i thought it would. at least i fucking remembered to put on some sunscreen. of course, i still got a sunburn, but not nearly as bad as it could have been. now, for the birdfeeder they wanted me to take from next door, that was a completely different story. i got most of it over to here, but the ground was holding on to the rest of it. no birdfeeder is worth me fucking up my back more than it already is, no matter if my uncle wanted me to have it or not. so, hopefully, my cousins will dig that fucker out and bring it over sometime. i think we're going to try it in the front flower bed, the one i pulled all the damn weeds from.
i got 2 of my final 3 to the finale of The Voice. in hindsight, of course Blake would get 2 people to the finale, as always.
NXT was really good last night.
Deadliest Catch was excellent last night.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.
and here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night.
the Yankees won last night over the Rangers last night, 7-4. hopefully, they will win again tonight.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, AEW and The Masked Singer.
i'm sure i'll watch some of the NHL playoffs tonight and the NBA playoffs as well.
grocery shopping today was a bit crazy. i'm not thrilled that more people aren't wearing masks. like i'm going to trust any of these motherfuckers and think they all got vaccinated. i did get everything on the list and a few extra things. it is going to get pretty hot here the next few days (already had to turn on the AC) so i got mom plenty of fruit and ice cream.
i will probably be on here before the Yankees play tomorrow afternoon.
until then kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
wear your mask.
get the shot.

when i checked the rain gauge this morning at 10 AM, it was at 3.5 inches of rain. i just checked it again before i started writing this and there's another .4 in it. even if i wanted to go to the bank today, there would be no way for me to get to it given that every road i would have taken would have some section of it under water. joy.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
The Voice was excellent last night. i have no damn clue who is going to win tonight. all 5 of them are deserving.
Songland was really good last night.
Fuck That's Delicious was excellent last night.
Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, the season finale of The Voice, The Masked Singer, Deadliest Catch, Dark Side of the Ring and WWE Backstage.
i could feel the storms coming last night. the ache in my bones eventually woke me up at 5:30 this morning. thankfully, i went back to sleep. i don't think 2 hours was going to cut it for today.
the New York Yankees lost yesterday to Tampa in 11 innings, 2-1. so much for first place. hopefully they will win the series this afternoon.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:
i got the winner of The Preakness Stakes right yesterday. one of these days, i'll actually have enough money to bet on the races.
the season finale of Saturday Night Live was good last night.
ROH was really good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be the season finale of Barry, Last Week Tonight and Our Cartoon President. i'll be watching WWE Money in the Bank for most of the evening.
i might watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs today. kind of depends on how i'm feeling and how the weather is.
team USA is currently leading Germany at the hockey World Championships today, 2-1. i will hopefully get this done before that is over.
i guess we're going to try to wait until Memorial Day for a new stove. that's going to be interesting.
i hope your Saturday was good. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.
i think i'm going to have to start putting alcohol in my morning coffee...
i think the next wave of storms is coming. good times.
until tomorrow kids...
the USA is now leading 3-1.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, a few minutes before 6 AM this morning, i had the most violent cramp in my left leg in my 42 years on this planet. it honestly felt like the lower half of my left leg was leaving my body. my big toe on my left foot was sticking straight up in the air. i'm not sure why i got the cramps. i didn't drink last night. i have this big cup i drink water out of. it's 24 ounces for a full cup. i usually will drink 4 to 7 of those a day. my guess is the cramp was actually caused by diabetic nerve pain. it's been so fucking rainy the last day or so that my left leg feels like it has radiation running through it. it reminds me of when my sciatic nerve was pinched. worst fucking pain in my life. this morning was as close as i have been to that in the last 10 years.
so, since i was up, i fucking watched most of the Royal Wedding this morning. it was fine. i was simply hoping to pass the damn time until the USA played Sweden in the semi-finals of the Hockey World Championships this morning.
Sweden whipped the USA 6-0. that means the USA will be playing for a bronze medal tomorrow morning. and if the current results hold, they will be playing Canada in that game. joy. (Canada got upset by Switzerland today 3-2)
so, probably after my 5th glass of water this morning, i got ready to watch Manchester United play in the FA Cup Final. needless to say, when shit rolls downhill, eventually you come to realize it's never going to fucking stop. United pissed away chance after chance and of course were fucking horrible in the first half. Chelsea scored on a penalty kick that was deserved (fuck you Phil Jones). United played with more desperation in the second half, but that never amounted to shit.
what a fucking waste this day has turned into.
the New York Yankees lost to a shitty Royals team last night, 5-2. hopefully they will get a win tonight.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.
VICE was very good last night.
NJPW was pretty good last night.
the main event of Major League Wrestling was great last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was very funny last night.
Wyatt Cenac's Problem Areas was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be the season finale of Saturday Night Live, Fahrenheit 451, ROH and Patrick Melrose.
i will probably watch some of the NHL and NBA playoffs tonight as well.
i also plan on watching the Preakness Stakes later today.
i'm currently going on just 3 1/2 hours of sleep. so i'm going to crash here soon.
i hope everyone has a better Saturday than me.

i guess i picked the right window of time today to go get gas and groceries. it started to pour about 45 minutes after i got back home.
mom has had me go twice to the ATM she always goes to to get some cash out. both times there wasn't any. mind you, that ATM is roughly a few miles out of the way of anything. good times.
i did write 4 poems yesterday after i got done with the blog. i really like all 4 of them. i figure since i will have a few moments home alone while mom is in the hospital, i will definitely try to bust out a long ass writing session or two.
the New York Yankees lost last night 5-1 to Kansas City. they start a series down at that dump in Tampa tonight.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
Lip Sync Battle was pretty funny last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW and Real Time with Bill Maher.
i get the feeling that it is going to be storming for most of the night. that will make doing the dishes really fun. fuck me runnin'.
i did watch the WWE UK Special today on WWE Network. it was good. i can't wait for Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate to face each other this weekend in Chicago at NXT Takeover. it should be a classic.
i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow. i'd like to be done before the cleaning ladies get here in the afternoon.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

from the title, you can imagine what happened as i tried to get to the bathroom this morning. i just love being sick. i am down 15 lbs. though, so i'm either losing weight or dying. i honestly can see the positives for both.
Monday Night Raw was ok but pretty boring for most of the show. i loved seeing the old Kevin Owens finally returning. and seeing just how athletic Braun Strowman is, push that motherfucker to the moon Vince.
Hate Thy Neighbor was pretty interesting. Sweden certainly looks like a place i could live, especially when the far left is the ones that beat the shit out of the Nazi youths.
Unlocking the Cage was very interesting last night. i think i ended up watching that more than wrestling actually. it could be an amazing world if the judicial system in this country ever catches up to science. i know, i started to laugh as well.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, WWE Smackdown and Taboo. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
i'll be at the Dayton Flyers game tonight at home against George Mason. if they can get a victory tonight, it will be the senior class 100th victory of their careers and guarantee Dayton a double bye in the A10 tournament.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Montreal. hopefully the Rangers can start another winning streak.
the New York Rangers played the worst game i have watched them play in probably 7 months or so last night. every chance they had to do something good they would fuck it up. they are the only fucking team i know that can turn a 5 on 3 power play into a goal for the other team. and they took way too many fucking penalties. the only good thing that came from last night? losing 6-2 finally ends that damn 1 goal game streak they were on. and getting humbled that way at home hopefully brings out the team that had the most road victories in the NHL this season when they play Game 3 down in Tampa. for some fucking reason, The King stinks in Game 2's.
the only thing that cheered me up last night was this:
talk about a holy shit moment. i have watched Kevin's career for like the past decade or so. i was so happy for him last night. and to know that he will be facing John Cena in 2 weeks... god i hope he beats the living hell out of Cena and takes the title. Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. the future of pro wrestling, Dean Ambrose, played a major role in the success of the show:
plus, the male soap opera part was played well once again:
Dolph has always been one lucky fucker. if him and Rusev feuds, that should be a great one. all in all, not a bad show.
sadly, since the hockey stunk last night, i watched most of Raw as it was happening. and i was so pissed by the Rangers game that i stayed up and made sure to watch The Voice last night before i went to bed.
i thought all the performances last night on The Voice were very good. but, ultimately, i think it will be this one that wins it all:
unless there is another shocker like last season, i think Sawyer has this one in the bag. the winner will be announced tonight.
on the DVR tonight will be Deadliest Catch.
David Letterman had another great show last night. it will be really fucking strange to not see him anymore on television:
tonight will be Bill Murray and Bob Dylan. the DVR will be recording.
here's some more from last night:
the New York Yankees play at Washington tonight. i'm not looking forward to it.
the NBA Draft Lottery is tonight. hopefully the Sacramento Kings can somehow slip into the top 3. i would love to see that happen. god knows, they are due for some good luck by now.
got some free music on iTunes today. i also picked up the new single from Slayer. much better than i thought it was going to be.
mom and i are going to go to the grocery store here in a little bit. we're at the point where the fridge is getting a little too empty. and hopefully my creative juices get flowing again. i need to really start cranking out the poems again.
while on that topic, i sent 6 poems out today to ZYX. when i hear back from Arnold on those, i'll pass on the verdict.
i'm still trying to get used to having neighbors again. i can't remember living in a neighborhood where everyone cut their fucking lawns like every 3 days. it's annoying as all hell. we also have 2 ducks that have been keeping in the shade underneath our tree in the front. they were in the back this morning when i was feeding the birds. i threw them some sunflower seeds. i figure better they get them than the damn squirrels. so, of course, it's still a fucking zoo here, just no cats or deer. so far.
that's all for me today. hope this finds everyone with a pulse.

i'm currently running on about 3 hours of sleep. needless to say, i will be a little extra cranky while watching the New York Rangers tonight.
let's go back to yesterday shall we...
the New York Yankees split a doubleheader, winning game 1 and giving away game 2. they won the series and are in first place, so i guess it's ok. they are off tonight and start a series in Chicago tomorrow.
i somehow made it through all the Sunday night shows, even though it took me forever. Total Divas was good, but scripted beyond belief last night. Nurse Jackie was good once again. Californication really had me laughing last night. Penny Dreadful had a HOLY SHIT ending. easily, the best show on tv right now. Last Week Tonight was brilliant. as for Silicon Valley and Veep, i enjoyed both of them. but, i was so damn tired, i have no idea if i was laughing because it was funny or i was delirious.
on to today...
Manchester United officially hired Louis van Gaal as manager today. he takes over once he is done coaching the Netherlands in the World Cup. he is a no non-sense kind of guy, so it will be interesting. Ryan Giggs was appointed his number 2, so that means the end of his playing career. but, hopefully in 3 years he is taking over the club for the next 20 or so. this will certainly make for an interesting silly season with all the rumors.
the New York Rangers play Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals tonight. Montreal announced that their starting goalie is out for the rest of the series. hopefully the Rangers take advantage of this HUGE opportunity. i expect tonight to be a nasty game as i'm sure Montreal will want some revenge for their goalie being injured (on an accidental play mind you). as long as the Rangers win and no one gets injured, i couldn't care what kind of game it is.
also tonight (all at the same time) are The Voice, Monday Night Raw, and Louie. hopefully the hockey ends at a decent time so i get to watch some of the other shows. looks like a night i'll be spending on YouTube.
i happened to do a little writing today. penned 5 poems in a little over 30 minutes today. so, with the one i wrote over the weekend, i typed up 6 poems this afternoon. i think i have a few winners in the batch.
a big thank you to everyone with their comments and reaction to my poem "all the damn yesterdays". i really appreciate it.
after feeding the animals today, i had to spray for insects in the cellar and around the house. that's always fun in a strong ass breeze. thankfully i didn't get any on me.
that's all for today kids. i need to get some dinner and get my mind in the right place for the game tonight. hope everyone had a great weekend. i'll be on here tomorrow sometime.
peace and chicken grease...

i couldn't sleep for shit last night until i jerked off for the first time in weeks. and of course, being the asshole i am, i used the bad arm to do it as i sadly tend to enjoy the pain. that bought me at least 2 hours of sleep. so, i might have got 4 hours last night in total. the right amount if i was 23 or so. sadly, at 38, i'm living more like a guy who smokes pot and naps all day long. i wouldn't mind the pot part, but napping all day long isn't for me.
in between the naps today, i did manage to write 2 poems. i will hopefully type them up this weekend.
the New York Rangers lost 2-1 last night. they had so many chances to win last night but lost the game in the last 2 minutes of the 3rd period. that could end up being some huge lost points. of course, go out and beat Pittsburgh tonight and no one will remember last night.
i spent 45 minutes in the damn cold today feeding the cats and filling the bird feeders. thankfully, there was no wind and i'm smart enough to dress in layers. and i made damn sure to take some oxy before i went out to do that.
i do enjoy this dream/awake stage the pain pills put me in at times. takes me back to my youth and the glorious moments where i really expanded my brain. glory days.
i suppose tonight i'll be watching some of the opening ceremony in Russia for the Winter Olympics, but not that much. there are some hockey games i need to watch and some college hockey i need to watch as well. and that damn tree house show that has become a guilty pleasure to watch on Friday nights. i suppose because i never had one as a kid.
The Big Bang Theory was really good last night. it also reminded me that i haven't had a girlfriend at Valentine's Day in damn near 20 years. money saved i suppose but so much other shit i have missed out on. hello depression.
not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. probably sometime before Dayton plays tomorrow. maybe i'll make it a morning post while i'm high on pain pills. i do know the women's hockey starts over in Russia in the middle of the night tonight. i know damn well what i'll be watching if i can't sleep tonight. and not in a sexual way you perverts.
that's all for me. be well and stay warm. continue with the good vibes as this is one tough motherfucker of pain i'm trying to beat. and in the words of Ice Cube, today was a good day.
peace and chicken grease...
