a rainy Sunday...

 well, i was hoping to have this blog done before the Manchester derby started today. obviously, that didn't happen. United is losing right now, 1-0.


it has been raining since last night. i'm guessing the pain finally got to me and i didn't as much sleep as i simply passed out from it. good times.


the Dayton Flyers won last night at home against #6 Marquette, 71-63. considering they were down 13 more than once in the game, i was really happy Dayton found a way to win.




i did watch some of the Army vs. Navy game yesterday.



the New York Rangers lost yesterday at home to the LA Kings, 5-1. they play today at St. Louis.





Saturday Night's Main Event was great last night.






AEW Collision was ok last night.



Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night.






the Violent Femmes PBS special last night was excellent.



i'm saving the latest Joker movie for later today, most likely.


enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Agency and Dexter: Original Sin.


the New Orleans Saints are playing right now at home against Washington.



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




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


i hope everyone had a great Saturday.


i hope your Sunday will be even better.


until tomorrow kids...

well, one good thing from the Saints loss happened last night...

 sadly, i think the New Orleans Saints are inventing new ways to lose now. more on that bullshit in a bit. but, it did piss me off enough that i actually wrote 4 poems last night. they are the first poems i have written since October 25th. our national nightmare is now over. i'm hoping to write a few more and get some submissions out this week.


so, the New Orleans Saints were up 16-3 last night at Tampa Bay. and then the offense decided to shit the bed and Tampa Bay came back to win the game in the final seconds, 17-16. i almost think sometimes the Saints have forgotten they don't have a first round draft pick in the next draft. so all these fucking losses are doing is giving the Eagles, arguably the best team in the NFL, a better first round pick. and they managed to piss me off so much that i couldn't really enjoy the victory of the night.






the victory was from the New York Rangers. they came from behind last night and defeated St. Louis, 6-4. that was a much needed victory. and hopefully, it will be something they build upon.








The Voice was really good last night. i can't wait to see who makes the finals.









That's My Jam was very funny last night.




Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.










enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:











on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, NXT and the season finale of Tales From The Territories.


so, right as i was getting ready to call this tire place on the other side of the county, the Toyota dealership called me and left a message. i didn't see the message because i was helping mom with her breakfast. i called the dealership back and they wanted to know if i still needed the tire replaced. i said yes. they said they can order it and get it on the Highlander on Friday. i said that works for me. so, Friday morning i'll be taking the Highlander in and getting the front left tire replaced.


today at the World Cup, Morocco stunned Spain in penalty kicks, 0-0 (3-0). Portugal put on a show against Switzerland, winning 6-1. Morocco against Portugal in the quarterfinals should be a spectacle.






some of mom's christmas gifts have started showing up. 3 of the 5 so far. now, i just need to get the christmas trees up i guess.


i need to figure out dinner and get the trash ready to go out.


plus, i need to help mom pay some bills, so that's all for me kids.


until tomorrow...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


stay off the fucking streets.


get the fucking shot.


en las buenas noches, los poemas fluyen como el vino

Merry Christmas

 



Merry Christmas to everyone.


yesterday was one of those days that had been brewing for over 30 years. my sister and i got into it and i mean at the top of our lungs into it. she seemed clueless why i don't like the holidays. and i brought up being molested by a cousin. she acted like she has only knew about it for a few years now. so, when i told her that i told her, mom and dad in therapy when i was 13, she seemed dumbfounded. all of this came about after my mother fell again, this time in the kitchen. she was trying to walk holding on to the counter, instead of her walker, and sure enough, lost her balance and fell. she brought down a candle that was on one of those candle warmers as well. fun times. thankfully, she didn't hurt break anything on her body. she's going to be bruised and i'm pretty sure her clothes are ruined. 


just another day in the house of dysfunction.


my sister and i agreed we need to work on our communication and that brutal honesty is the only way to do so. i also informed her that i am privy to all of mom's conversations with her financial planner, so if you have questions, come to me first. mom's memory of anything anymore is fucking shot to hell.


so, before all that fun shit, i did watch The Matrix Resurrections. it was great. i loved it.





Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.






Chillin Island was hilarious last night.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be AEW Rampage.


i will probably watch plenty of the NBA today as well as the NFL. i do plan on watching that John Madden documentary this afternoon.


i hope everyone got some presents. i do hope what i sent the lucky few arrived long before today.


i now have to go eat some breakfast and open some gifts. 


my best to you and yours.


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


until then.


be at peace.

Feliz Navidad
