and now, the heat...

 we're under an excess heat warning all week. joy. and of course, it would be this week, when both mom and i have doctor's appointments and she has two physical therapy appointments. 

the New York Yankees lost last night at Boston, 9-3. sadly, it looks like the Yankees can whip every other team in the league, but struggle against their own division. hopefully, that starts being different soon since they start a series at home against Baltimore tomorrow night.

i did watch some of the Euro 2024 yesterday.

Power Book II: Ghost was good last night.

The Chi was excellent last night.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Name That Tune.

Game 5 of the NBA Finals is tonight.

i need to go to the bank and make a deposit. i'm going to do that here in a bit.

mom does have physical therapy this afternoon. hopefully, i will get some poems written there.

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

https://synchchaos.com/poetry-from-j-j-campbell-107/

i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get back home from taking mom to her doctor's appointment.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

felt like spring today...

 it was in the 60's today. felt kind of weird being out in February without a coat on. i did go to Menards this afternoon. i found most of what i was looking for. i had enough rebates, etc. that the final bill was a little over $15. mom nearly shit herself when she saw that when i got back home. normally, i would spend close to $100 there.

here are your videos for this day of Black History Month:

i did watch the WWE press conference last night to kick off the road to WrestleMania, etc. it was very good.

NJPW was good last night.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Real Time with Bill Maher. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.

the Dayton Flyers play tonight at VCU. the game will be on ESPN2 i believe.

the New York Rangers play tonight at Chicago.

i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. i know i need to go to Lowe's sometime tomorrow to find what i couldn't find at Menards.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

i might be back on here later tonight if i happen to get my ass in gear and send some more poems out.

i did happen to write 3 more last night.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

so here we go...

 i would like to think that i found my bottom last night when it comes to my depression, but i am old enough to know there is no bottom to my depravity, so... but i at least got a good poem out of the abyss i was in. i was hoping to write more today but mom got sick and didn't go to her physical therapy. it seems like i do my best writing at places like that anymore as i don't have as many distractions to deal with. at home, usually the poems come to me while i am in the shower or on the toilet. sadly, it has always been that way.

the New York Yankees won last night at the Dodgers, 4-1. they are off tonight and start a series tomorrow at home against the White Sox.

the old adage is that a series doesn't become a series until the home team loses. well, we have a series now in the NBA Finals. Miami won at Denver last night, 111-108. the series is now 1-1. Game 3 will be on Wednesday in Miami.

i did watch the premiere of The Idol last night. i saw all the negative reviews today and mostly agree with them. i'm going to give the show a little bit of a leash as i want it to be good. now, it definitely would have appealed to me much more when i was in my 20's. but those days are long behind me now.

Ghosts of Beirut was really good last night. the series finale is next week.

VICE was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.

Game 2 of the Stanley Cup final is tonight. Vegas is up 1-0 in the series.

i did listen to episode 450 of Notsam Wrestling today. you can hear that by going here:

the calm before the storm...

 the weather is going to get fucking crazy here in a few hours. the rain is going to turn to snow, heavy at times, the wind is going to become ferocious and the temperatures are going to drop like crazy. like from 41 to a feels like -30. good times.

at least mom's new chair got here this morning. she got duped a bit as she thought the $40 she was paying extra was for them to take the old chair. actually, it was $40 for them to move it out of the room and put it somewhere else. i opened the garage door and told them to put it in there. i know damn well the store never made it clear that was what the fee was actually for. so, i imagine this might be the last time we use Med Mart for awhile. 

AEW Dynamite was really good last night.

Hard Knocks was pretty good last night.

Homeward Bound: A Grammy Salute To The Songs of Paul Simon was excellent last night.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against the Islanders.

the New York Knicks lost last night at home to Toronto, 113-106.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

i will probably watch some of the Jets vs. Jaguars NFL game tonight. mom is a Jets fan.

i need to get going on dinner tonight. i'm going to try to make the home equivalent of the Arby's Beef and Cheddar. this is going to be interesting to say the least.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm hoping we actually have power tomorrow. mom has a guy lined up to do the driveway and sidewalks if we get a ton of snow. i'm hoping it isn't too bad, but i know if we get any snow and have those crazy ass winds, it is going to be a fucking mess.

 i decided to take a shower before i went to bed last night, hoping it would help me sleep better. nope. i got up after roughly 4 hours of sleep and have been up since. i suppose i will get the sleep i need when i die.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

here are your highlights from Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final last night:

the Euro 2020 games yesterday were crazy. Spain defeated Croatia, 5-3 in extra time. Switzerland eliminated France on penalty kicks, 3-3 (5-4).  i can't fucking believe France is out. today, England plays Germany and Sweden takes on Ukraine.

at the Copa America last night, Argentina defeated Bolivia, 4-1. Uruguay beat Paraguay, 1-0. the quarterfinals are now set. Peru plays Paraguay. Brazil takes on Chile. Uruguay plays Colombia. Argentina plays Ecuador. 

the Yankees lost to the Angels last night, 5-3. nothing like your manager telling everyone your season is on the line and you go out and lay an egg.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT, Deadliest Catch and Mr. Inbetween.

i will probably watch some of the NBA playoffs tonight as well.

since i have no trash to pickup today next door (i think the house is just about sold now) after the Euro 2020 games are over, i'll do that around here.

it's another hot and muggy day here. i think the feels like temp is close to 100 now.

i will be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done. 

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

 as much as i want to believe i might have stumbled across the dream woman in the last few days, i'm also painfully aware i am 45 years old, i don't have much money, my health isn't the greatest and good shit never happens to me. so yeah, that small grain of optimism has its work cut out for it to survive in this bleak hell.

ROH was very good last night.

the New York Rangers beat the Devils yesterday, 6-3. they will try to win their 4th in a row against New Jersey later today.

the Yankees lost again to Tampa yesterday, 6-3. if they don't win today with Cole pitching, i'm not sure how long this losing streak is going to get.

you would think the world was ending...

the grocery store today was a fucking zoo. nearly every checkout lane was open but all the baggers decided to take a break at the same time. i was in line for almost 45 fucking minutes. that was after 90 minutes going around the store finding everything. thank god i rewarded myself today with some good alcohol. that will come in handy for the holidays. i had to go to two different stores before i went to the grocery store. and i had to get gas for the Highlander as well. all in all, i think i spent around $250 today. good times.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

the game last night between the Chiefs and Chargers was fucking crazy. the Chargers won 29-28 on a 2 point conversion with just 4 seconds left in the game. i really hope these two face face each other again in the playoffs.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be the season finale of VICE, NJPW, the last two episodes of the season for Room 104 and Mike Judge Presents: Tales From the Tour Bus.

the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Arizona. it would be nice to see the Rangers win tonight.

i think the last few things i ordered for mom arrived today and i found something at the store for my sister. so, i think i am actually done Christmas shopping now.

i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. i'm guessing it might be early or at least before the afternoon comes along.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

the advantages to not sleeping...

so, i just happened to catch my sexy, beautiful woman in Italy early this morning (morning for her, 1 in the morning for me) and we had quite the conversation. and she became the second person this week to ask me to come to Europe. part of me really wishes i could drop everything and just go. but, i have never had fuck you money in my life, so i know that's not possible. and when she told me her mother wants to meet me, i started to laugh. no, i don't think she does. of course, she tells me this right as i was typing her a story of me eating her out. even as perverse as i am, that was fucking weird. but, when she sent me a little video last night, let's just say i'm totally in fucking love. so, now it becomes my search for courage to send a little video back, especially given my self-hatred. and deciding what i have to sell off to start saving money to first get a fucking passport and then actually board a plane for the first time in 30 years to fly to Italy. and even as i type this, i think this could all be a ploy or an evil plot from god just to fuck with me. of course, when your mind is consumed with a beautiful woman, certain shitty things are allowed to persist without much care.

the New York Yankees got another shitty start from Sonny Gray last night and lost 6-2 at Toronto. hopefully they will get a win this afternoon.

NJPW was excellent last night. i think i could watch Omega wrestle Okada for the rest of my life and never get bored.

Major League Wrestling was pretty good last night.

VICE was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH, Bill Maher: Live in Oklahoma and NJPW G1 Special in San Francisco.

World Cup Update:
England defeated Sweden 2-0 this morning. this is the first time England has made it this far in 28 years. they will play the winner of Croatia vs. Russia.

the weather was nice enough that i was able to get out this morning and feed the birds. plus, we were able to open the windows, turn the air conditioning off and air the house out a bit. of course, the air conditioning will be back on soon as summer is supposed to be back like hell early next week.

i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow. i will know by then for sure when the next round of poems will be going out.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. my apologies to everyone in Sweden, at least you made it farther in the World Cup than Germany, the side i foolishly picked to win it.

Marcus Rashford, have yourself a day...

i got up this morning in time to watch Manchester United vs. Liverpool. i noticed Pogba was out, due to injury, so i was very curious to see how United was going to play. i was somewhat surprised that Mourinho decided not to park the bus right from the start of the game. and it worked. Marcus Rashford scored 2 lovely goals to put United up 2-0 at halftime. it could have been 3-0 if Juan Mata would have scored on his bicycle kick attempt. United gave up an own goal in the second half, but Liverpool, the team that these blowhards on television go on and on about their wonderful strikers, had no shots on goal in the second half. job well done boys.

since i got a grand total of about 4 hours of sleep last night, i've spent the rest of today napping and watching college basketball.

the A10 final tomorrow is going to be Rhode Island vs. Davidson. Davidson has to win for the conference to get 3 teams in the tournament.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

NJPW was excellent last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was really good last night.

High Maintenance was great last night.

i did watch the New York Yankees defeat the Mets today 10-3. Stanton hit his first HR of the spring. i can only imagine how many he's going to hit in Yankee Stadium.

the New York Rangers play tonight down in Florida against the Panthers. hopefully the Rangers lose again. that is what is best for their rebuild. the stubborn nature of the coach in this rebuild should be all the GM needs to see to know he has to change coaches in the summer. there's no point in making the team younger if the coach doesn't like to play young players.

i will be on here in the afternoon tomorrow.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

overtime magic

there are times that the New York Rangers frustrate the living shit out of me. they have a tendency to sit back and think their talent will get everything done for them. thankfully, something clicked in the second period last night and they started to actually attempt to outwork Montreal. thank god they found it before it was too late.

a 3-2 win in Game 5 to go up in the series 3-2. Game 6 is Saturday night at MSG. god willing, the boys won't have to go back to Montreal for a Game 7.

after the game mom asked me what i wanted her to do when i have my heart attack from how i watch these games. i told her, let me die. i've been asking for it for 41 years now. if i can die after a victory, at least i'll be as happy as i can fucking get.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Lip Sync Battle was great last night. Justin Verlander is a very lucky man.

while the Rangers were frustrating me last night, i thought about watching some playoff basketball. i noticed Cleveland was trailing by a ton at halftime last night. and then i saw they were only down by a couple. thankfully, i got to see some of what LeBron did last night. it's hard to imagine just how much people take him for granted.

Fuck, That's Delicious 4/20 Special was fucking hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

the New York Yankees start a series tonight in Pittsburgh. hopefully they can keep on winning.

i went to the grocery store earlier today. i was pretty happy that i was able to get everything that was on the list and keep it under $100.

i also did a little poetry work today. i think i know where my next round of submissions are going. that might be what i do this weekend. or maybe late tonight... whenever that wild hair gets up my ass...

it's hard to believe it's been one year since Prince died. of course, i've heard there's a ton of unreleased music that will be coming out for years to come. i suppose that depends on the family and the court system. i've spent a good portion of today just listening to old songs of his. there truly will never be another one.

i hope everyone has a great weekend. i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. i'm going to try to get it done in the morning, as i believe the cleaning people will be coming in the afternoon. i find it funny that mom is bitching about money yet still pays for people to come and clean the house. tales for another day...
