history was made...

 i did watch Alex Ovechkin break Wayne Gretzky's goal scoring record yesterday when he scored his 895th goal. to me, the best part of the game was that the Capitals lost, 4-1. 

the Yankees lost at the Pirates yesterday, 5-4, in 11 innings. they start a series this afternoon at Detroit.

the season finale of The White Lotus was crazy last night.

The Righteous Gemstones was hilarious last night.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

Yellowjackets was fucking insane last night. the season finale next week should be bonkers.

The Americas was very good last night. that season finale is next week.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan was very good last night.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Tampa Bay.

Manchester United and Manchester City played a 0-0 draw yesterday. at least i was able to get a good nap in.

the national championship game in college basketball is tonight between Florida and Houston. i'll keep track of that on my phone.

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.

i think Monday Night Raw is on Netflix this afternoon. i am going to try to watch that when i get home from taking mom to her doctor's appointment.

i talked to my insurance agent this morning. i finally got the letter he was telling me to call him about back in January. i guess on March 1st, Medicaid approved my application. he sent the application in December of last year. he was happy that they accepted me as it should drive the prices down for me. i had one question though. if i got approved on March 1st and didn't know about it until March 22nd, what 3 to 4 day period am i to believe that my Medicaid card will be sent to me? he believes i should already have it, as do i. he did give the number to cancel my other insurance with. thankfully, that hasn't been paid yet for next month.

i'm not going to cancel the insurance until the cards come, that's for sure.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

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

until then...

 Manchester United was fucking awful in the first half today. Leicester wasn't much better, but they were up 1-0 at halftime. at least United woke up in the second half. to be honest, they couldn't play worse. Garnacho came on and did very well. Zirkzee scored the first goal. Harry Maguire scored the game winner late, even though he was clearly offside. thank god there was no VAR today. United won 2-1 to advance to the next round of the FA Cup.

i guess Orkin is coming here in the morning and they are actually going to finally, get in the attic and see if there has been any damages. if there hasn't, i would love for them to fix the fucking hole the squirrels or racoons did and take the fucking traps away. nothing says Christmas cheer like a fucking trap hanging from the fucking soffit.

thankfully, i didn't watch one second of the Yankees loss to Boston last night at home, 3-0. god, the Yankees fucking suck right now. they are off tonight and start a series tomorrow down in that dump in Tampa.

it was fun while it lasted...

 i was hoping the Dayton Flyers were going to get off to a great start yesterday against Arizona. silly me. Dayton fell down by 17 yet again. they had a nice 10-0 run to end the half down only 7. they even got it down to 3 in the second half. but, you can't fall down that much to really good teams and continually pull the rabbit out of your ass and win. sadly, Dayton hasn't learned that lesson yet. Arizona won yesterday, 78-68. 

the New York Rangers won last night at home against Florida, 4-3, in a shootout.

i did watch a good number of college basketball games yesterday:

Ramy Youssef : More Feelings was fucking hilarious last night.

 i am running on fumes it seems. i really could use a coma. or just a really good night of sleep. but, considering i have been like this for over 30 fucking years, that boat has sailed. good times.

i did get mom to her appointment with the back doctor today. they are going to continue with her shots and probably start back up physical therapy soon. the shots do seem to help her. and she has done a decent job with her physical therapy at home. sad thing is she doesn't sleep worth a shit either. and being a fall risk... now you see my problem.

never forget, humans are a disease...

 maybe it is the holidays that bring out the worst in us, or maybe i am so fucking cynical or depressed or disillusioned with life that i simply don't have the patience for bullshit anymore. the grocery store today was a fucking circus. but, i did make it out alive and managed not to spend $300 on everything. holy fuck, you'd think i hadn't bought any food in the last couple of weeks. and now, toss in my mother trying to put the shelves back in the pantry as she is finally putting contact paper on the shelves after being here almost a decade. she didn't like my comment of why the fuck did we need to do this after living here this long, you'd think you'd want to complete this years ago. and of course, her response was do you want me to leave? and she knows that i know how fucking passive/aggressive she gets when she gets angry so i simply responded; you're going to twist this however your passive/aggressive ass has to to make it your way, so do what you want. this is going to be a fun night.

the finale of The Voice was excellent last night. i picked the winner correctly this season.

NXT was good last night.

i'm hoping to write some poems this afternoon.

otherwise, i am hoping for a quiet, relaxing day. (i know, i'm laughing as well)

mom has physical therapy at noon tomorrow and then an appointment to get the battery on her phone changed after that. so, i'm guessing i will be on here in the late afternoon tomorrow.

i did watch some of the Wimbledon men's final this morning. of course, i had a $2 bet on the wrong person.

not sure how much deeper a depression can get...

 now, i think i do a pretty decent job fighting my depression, battling through. but, the last few days, maybe it is the heat or maybe it is my lingering thoughts on mortality, the depression has been sinking deeper and deeper into me. and as much as i can drink away the pain or clear my head with a cold shower, nothing really works. not even a beautiful woman telling me how good i look lifts my spirits. good times.

i did vacuum the house last night. of course, after i did that mom decided she wanted to open the box her new light was in and to put it together. i looked at all the Styrofoam and cardboard on what i just vacuumed. i just started to laugh. honestly, why the fuck do i even bother to do this shit anymore? of course, i ended up putting the light together. as much as she wants to think she can still do things, the more she has to realize that she can't.

Game 1 of the Stanley Cup final went to Las Vegas last night. they beat Florida, 5-2. Game 2 is Monday night.
