today has been one of those days where if i could have slept the entire day, i would have. but, since it is nearly impossible for me to sleep more than 3 hours at a time, i at least got a few naps in.
yesterday, mom had some people over for an early Thanksgiving of sorts. i thought it went pretty well. the food was good. all in all, not bad.
the New Orleans Saints won yesterday at home against the Browns, 35-14.
the New York Rangers won last night at Seattle, 2-0.
Somebody Somewhere was excellent last night.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
i did catch episode 7 of Say Nothing last night. i will probably finish up the series this week.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, Monday Night Raw, What We Do in the Shadows and part 1 of the Leonardo da Vinci documentary on PBS.
the USMNT plays Jamaica tonight in the second leg of the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal. they enter the match up 1-0.
i might watch some of the NFL game tonight between the Texans and Cowboys.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after i pick up my prescriptions from Kroger.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i'm guessing we're having leftovers for dinner tonight.
until tomorrow kids...

so, when the New York Rangers started the 3rd period last night down 3-1 at Carolina, i told my mother it was going to take one hell of a third period for the Rangers to close out the series. well, Chris Kreider said hold my beer and took over the game. he scored a natural hat trick to take the lead and the Rangers eventually won the game, 5-3. that clinched the series, 4-2. now, they will face either Boston or Florida in the Eastern Conference final.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:
the New York Yankees swept the Twins yesterday, winning 5-0. the Twins only scored 1 run in the 3 game series. the Yankees play at home tonight against the White Sox.

it did rain for a little bit today. i'm sure mom didn't mind as she finally got her plants planted outside. she was really happy that i trusted her enough to go to Rite Aid and get my pills yesterday while she was outside doing the plants on the back porch. now, to be honest, my nerves were raging, but i figured as long as i don't put the thought of her falling out into the universe, she would be fine. thankfully, she was.
i will probably take a shower after i get this done and then make dinner. i'm thinking i might do nachos tonight.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then kids...
fight the power.

when i got up to take a piss this morning, it was 8:30 AM. i went to bed at 5 AM. i was tempted to fall back asleep, but i didn't. i put the dishes away, made some coffee and got going with my day. probably a good thing as the guys came to do the gutters around 10 AM. so, now we have leaf guards on the gutters. that should help with the squirrels and whatever else. i did manage a bit of a nap in my massage chair. but a 20 minute power nap didn't do that much for me.
here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:
the New York Rangers won last night at Washington, 4-2. they won the series 4-0. they will now play the winner of Carolina and the New York Islanders. i would love if that series goes 7 games.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs yesterday:

other than a cold wind, today was one of those January days you couldn't really complain about. of course, next week is supposed to be below zero. the complaints will be flowing.
took mom to her foot doctor today. that went smoothly. then, i had to drive her to her regular doctor to pick up a test she needs to do. after that, she wanted to go out to eat. she decided she wanted to go to Waffle House. so, i drove back to where we live and went to the one in town. i'm not sure which genius decided they need new chairs. holy shit those are bad. it was like they got a discount on children's chairs and just said fuck it. the food was good but you could clearly tell that no one working actually wanted to be there. good times.
so, another day dominated by NFL news.
AEW Dynamite was good last night.
I Can See Your Voice was very good last night.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:

so, the Yankees game got rained out last night. they are playing Game 2 today. i would have loved to get this blog done before it started, but that clearly didn't happen. oh well.
the New York Rangers won last night in Minnesota, 7-3. the Rangers play at Winnipeg tonight.
Young Sheldon was good last night.
NJPW was excellent last night.
Atlanta was great last night.
Little Demon last night was hilarious. the season finale is next week.

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage, Real Time with Bill Maher and Los Espookys. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.
the Yankees are currently up 2-0 in the second inning. Stanton homered in the 1st.
it is very windy today. i used to love these days on the farm. mother nature would rake the leaves for me.
i am going to try to be on here in the morning tomorrow. Ohio State has a bye this weekend. i would love to go to the Red and Blue game tomorrow at UD Arena. but, i also need to get my laundry done and i really don't like leaving mom alone when she can't see. i really hope her fucking glasses come in soon.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

today was one of those days where i'm all out of tears. just one gut punch after another. one of those days where i'll be drinking whiskey tonight, apologizing to my 8 year-old self, knowing damn well he was right. death was the obvious choice to make. it could have saved me from all of this shit.
so, my mother had an appointment today at the dermatologist. she has this spot above her lip that her cardiologist told her to get it checked out. as soon as the doctor walked in, she bluntly said, yeah, that's cancer. they numbed my mother up and took a sample off to get the pathology of it. once they have that, she will be recommended to the specialists 30 minutes away for them to remove it. there is about an inch or so of her lip that will be removed. the dermatologist said hopefully they get all of it and can give her a patch job that gives her lip integrity. mom has had this spot for about 6 or 7 years. i can't be the asshole today and scream why the fuck did you wait so long. she already feels bad enough.
so, after that, we had to go get her new glasses. hopefully, they will help her see better. both the glasses and sunglasses look good on her.
after that, i took her to Burger King to get her frozen Coke and it was straight back home.
when we walked into the office, Manchester United was up 1-0. CR7 yet again. as we were walking out, i noticed United was down to 10 men because of a straight red card to one of their defenders. and then sometime before i pulled into the garage at home, Young Boys had tied the game at 1. i went in and found the game on television, just in time to watch Jesse Lingard make a disastrous back pass that went straight to the American on Young Boys, who calmly slotted it in the goal in the dying seconds of the game. so, United lost 2-1 to a team they shouldn't ever be losing to. now, it's not the end of the world, but it also means they have no room for error in the rest of the group stage games in the Champions League.
and to top off this day of shit, i found out Norm Macdonald died. and of course, it was from cancer. he was one of my favorite comedians ever. rest in peace and thanks for all the laughs.
the Yankees got down 5-0 yesterday to the Twins. but, since they were playing the Twins, the Yankees came back to win the game 6-5 in 10 innings. honestly, when the Yankees went down 4-0 in the first, i stopped watching. i put on some soccer and caught up on some sleep. the Yankees start a series tonight in Baltimore.
Monday Night Raw was good last night. i am so damn happy for Big E.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT and Deadliest Catch.
i did watch a good portion of the Monday Night Football game last night. that was fucking crazy.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.
i get the feeling there will be some poems flowing out of me like blood here soon.
i need to get the trash picked up, so until tomorrow kids...

watching this crowd of dumb fucks crash the capitol building today was like watching Senior Day at high school but there was more drugs and alcohol involved. i would love if the protestors that left the bombs or took pictures at the podiums, etc. i fucking would love if they all get arrested and charged with crimes. and i am fucking happier than shit that one of them got shot and died. this is what happens with a cult you dumb fucks.
so, last night i witnessed a team i have loved since birth lose to a team of fucking clowns for the first time in 15 years. Dayton lost to Fordham, 55-54. this is a team that plays down to its competition and has a coach unwilling to coach it out of them. you can tell this team misses Obi so damn much and is fucking unwilling to give two shits about figuring out how to win without him. they play at Davidson on Friday. i wouldn't be shocked if Davidson hands them their asses on national television.
thankfully, the USA vs. Canada game went much better. the USA defeated Canada 2-0 to win the gold at the world juniors. it's always nice to see Canadian tears on Canadian soil when the USA wins.
i took a shower last night and i guess i got the water a little too hot. i have a tendency of passing out when that happens. of course, as i have gotten older, it usually results in me having to take a shit. good times.
i did find it funnier than shit that the Democrats won both races in Georgia last night. poor Mitch, now the minority leader. going to be funny actually seeing shit get done in the Senate now.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Masked Dancer, Name That Tune, NXT and AEW.
so, i did get all the grocery shopping done in time to watch the Manchester United game today. i kind of wish i would have just stuck to my usual schedule so i could have been spared watching them fucking lose to Manchester City in yet another semifinal of a competition. fuck me. United lost 2-0.
i did get some baseball cards at Rite-Aid today. there really wasn't much in the Fairfield box. i might have made back what i paid for it, maybe.
i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
have a good one kids...

i have watched the New Orleans Saints lose so many heartbreakers over the years, i'm now fucking numb to the pain. so, when they lost to the Minnesota Vikings yesterday, i wasn't surprised. especially given that the Vikings committed pass interference on the game winning touchdown in overtime. that didn't piss me off, i'm used to the Saints getting fucked over on calls. what pissed me off was Sean Payton got conservative late in the 4th quarter, settling for the field goal to force overtime. it was so unlike him to do so, that i had that awful feeling in my stomach that the worse was coming. and sure enough...
the Seattle Seahawks won the other game yesterday, winning at the Eagles, 17-9.
the Dayton Flyers defeated Saint Joseph's yesterday, 80-67. Dayton did not play their best during the game. they battled foul trouble for most of it. but, good teams always find a way. they hadn't won at Saint Joseph's arena since January 29, 2000.
the World Juniors finished up yesterday. Canada came from behind to win the goal medal over Russia, 4-3. Sweden defeated Finland 3-2 to win the bronze medal.
i did watch most of the Golden Globes last night as i was doing my laundry.
Power was really good last night. loved the ending.
Ray Donovan was good last night.
Shameless was hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
i got the results from my x-rays this morning. apparently, the arthritis has set up in my neck and is causing chaos. i have some bone spurs and i'm going to assume, that is what is causing the pinched nerve. of course, i still have to take that EMG, which should clear up any doubts.
i spent a good portion of yesterday watching the Global Citizen music festival.
the New York Yankees lost last night at the Rangers, 9-4. they play their final game of the regular season this afternoon. they will play the Twins in the playoffs.
Ohio State started off on fire last night and whipped Nebraska 48-7. Ohio State really looks like a team that will compete for a national championship this season.
Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night.
ROH was good last night.
both episodes of NJPW were good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Power, Succession, Ballers, The Righteous Gemstones, Last Week Tonight, The Affair and On Becoming A God in Central Florida.
the New Orleans Saints play tonight at home against Dallas. that should be (hopefully) a great game.
i know mom has a doctor's appointment tomorrow. i'm going to try to get the blog done in the morning, mostly because when we get home, i'll be trying to catch the last of Manchester United vs. Arsenal.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday is even better.

i did send out 16 poems today. 5 each to Horror Sleaze Trash and Synchronized Chaos; 6 to Record Magazine. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.
the transfer window closed today. i was hoping Manchester United was going to do more than just finish the sell off of Lukaku to Inter Milan. silly me.
the New York Yankees whipped Baltimore last night, 14-2. they start a series tonight in Toronto.
NXT was a little light on the wrestling last night, with most of the episode setting up Takeover: Toronto this Saturday.
Big Brother was good last night. i'm pretty sure Jack will be evicted tonight. the episode won't air here until the middle of the night because of preseason football. i figure i'll follow online at some point.
Snowfall was excellent last night.

Sunday has finally arrived. this could end up being the biggest day in the history of U.S. Soccer. now, while i agree with it's so fucking stupid for FIFA to have scheduled 2 other finals on the same day as the Women's World Cup Final, it is what it is.
the USWNT takes on the Netherlands in the final of the Women's World Cup. i'm not cocky enough to think the USA is going to run away with this one. it should be a really tight game. that being said, i would love to see the women win easily.
the USMNT takes on Mexico this evening in the final of the Gold Cup. the men have closed the gap between the countries in this tournament a little, but i still think Mexico is the favorite. i would love to see the USA pull of the double today.
the New York Yankees lost yesterday to Tampa, 4-3. oh well. hopefully the Yankees win this afternoon to win the series. today is the final game before the All-Star break.
a storm hit right as the G1 Climax was starting last night, so i missed a little of the show. the matches were pretty good. the best match of the night for me was Kenta vs. Kota Ibushi. it was so good to see Kenta free from the shackles of the WWE.
the former muse told me that Bohemian Rhapsody was really good. i watched it last night and was very happy. Queen was always one of those bands that i loved growing up. i now see why all the interest in their music once again. and i can definitely see why Rami Malek won the Oscar.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Our Cartoon President, City on a Hill, Big Little Lies and Euphoria.
i suppose i should eat some breakfast before the match starts.

i'm sure at some point today i will watch some other college football games and maybe get some writing done.
i'll probably be on here tomorrow in the morning. given that the New Orleans Saints are on their bye week this Sunday, it will be a much less stressful one for me, that's for sure.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.
