so, today was one of those days...

 i had to mail out a book today. i got everything ready and went into the garage to start the Highlander. it wouldn't start. well fuck me. so, i called AAA and they said they would give me a jump in about 90 minutes. ok. 90 minutes later, the guy was pulling up into the driveway. nicely played. he gave me a jump. said the battery looks fine, the sensors said it just needed charged, but said you should probably get a charger for here in the garage. good point. mom has ordered one from Amazon today. she went with me to the post office so i wouldn't have to turn the Highlander off. i got the book mailed and we went back home. i started the Highlander back up to get the mail before the snow started. thankfully, it started right up and was good. once that charger gets here, i'm going to make sure it stays charged, at least through the winter. the battery is like 8 years old, so i know damn well a new one is needed soon. so yeah, that was how my day started. good times.


i wrote 5 poems last night for the book. that brings that total up to 25. a few more nights like that and i'll have 40 in no time.


Notre Dame defeated Penn State, 27-24, to win their semifinal of the college football playoff last night. Texas and Ohio State plays tonight.




the New York Rangers won last night at home against the Devils, 3-2 in OT.





enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Bill Maher: Is Anyone Else Seeing This?


i will probably be watching the Ohio State vs. Texas game for most of the night.



i will most likely be on here early tomorrow. since there will be a ton of sports on tomorrow.


we are getting more snow right now. probably about 2 inches so far, with another 2 to come.


i hope everyone has a great weekend.

at least it wasn't ice...

 it rained and rained all night long. as you can imagine, i didn't sleep worth a shit. i  probably didn't fall asleep until around 5 AM. thankfully, i woke up and was able to have breakfast before noon. i got all the grocery shopping done and was able to get back home before the next round of weather started. good times.


so, there has been some holy shit news today in pro and college football. Pete Carroll out as Seattle's coach and Nick Saban is retiring from Alabama. 






NXT was very good last night.













Inside the NFL was excellent last night.


Name That Tune was hilarious last night.


Hard Knocks was really good last night.

i think i am going to make bacon cheeseburgers for dinner tonight.


i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her foot doctor. we may go out to eat after that, not sure yet.


i'm hoping some poems will come to me in the shower tonight. it usually happens there or when i'm taking a shit. ah, the life of a poet.

the sun forgot to show up today...

 hard to believe it has been 7 years since David Bowie died. that was one of those deaths that really hit me harder than i was expecting. especially given that it was 11 days before my own birthday. really engages the poetic side of my brain or existence, etc. so, all the music will be from Bowie today.


the national championship last night wasn't good. Georgia absolutely destroyed TCU, 65-7. i did win a little money last night, but certainly not what i was hoping for. i did finish with more money than i was given at Draftkings, so i will take that as a win.







Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.












the New York Knicks lost last night at home to Milwaukee, 111-107.




here are your NBA highlights from last night:



Manchester United won this afternoon at home against Charlton in the League Cup, 3-0. they have now advanced to the semi-finals.




enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT.


the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Minnesota.




the Dayton Flyers play tonight at Fordham.


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


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




i need to go get dinner ready and pick up the trash.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.

stay off the fucking streets.

embracing the pain...

 i took a shower this morning, mostly because my back was killing me. this isn't exactly how i was hoping 2021 would start for me.


Manchester United won yesterday 1-0. they should have scored more, but i'll gladly take the victory and moving on in the FA Cup.




i did watch a good portion of all 3 NFL playoff games yesterday. nothing really surprised me. 


The King of Staten Island was pretty funny last night.


Austin City Limits was a best of episode of the two times the Foo Fighters had been on the show.




ROH was a best of last night as well.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Shameless and Your Honor.


the New Orleans Saints play the middle of the 3 NFL playoff games today at home against Chicago. it looks the Saints might actually be "healthy" for the game today. i'm really hoping they whip the Bears today and go on a run to the Super Bowl.


the other playoff games today are the Ravens vs. Titans and Browns vs. Steelers.


i did do a little poetry work before i went to bed last night. i think i know where my next 29 poems are going.


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


i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hope your Sunday is even better.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck donald trump.


fuck the police.

stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


wear your mask.

melt all this snow to make room for some more...

they are saying a shitload of snow is coming on Friday. i've heard anything from 3 to 11 inches. needless to say, i'll be doing any shopping, getting gas, whatever, tomorrow. and i won't be going to the basketball game Friday night. my luck, i'd get caught in the storm on the way home.

i took mom out shopping today. we found a few things at Meijer. we then went to lunch. i spent most of that listening to the couple at the table next to us speak Spanish for most of their conversation. i'm pleasantly shocked at how much i can still remember. after lunch, we went to Dollar Tree. amazingly, we found plenty of stuff there. of course, whatever we didn't find i get to buy tomorrow at the store. plus, i have to pick up mom's prescriptions.

the Dayton Flyers did their best to piss away a 12 point halftime lead last night at Richmond. shockingly, they managed to never give up the lead in the second half. Dayton won the game 87-81. that's their first road win of the year. they next play Friday at home against VCU. it will be on national television, so that's another reason to not be out in the snow on Friday night.

Drop the Mic was pretty funny last night.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

205 Live was pretty good as well last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Total Divas and The X-Files. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

if i can get up with a little energy tomorrow, i do plan on finally getting some poems out into the world for 2018. if not tomorrow, then i'm forcing myself to do it on Friday.

i had a crazy dream last night that i found a stillborn piglet in the basement of the house i grew up in. and then suddenly, a wild boar made out of dust started to charge me and tried to eat me. i woke up and it was 5 in the morning. i think i had been asleep for 3 hours. i took it as a reminder that i should have started with the harder drugs sooner in life.

that's all for me kids. my birthday is in 11 days. if you feel so inclined to buy me something, there's a link to my Amazon.com wishlist on the right hand side of this blog. there's plenty of cheap shit on there by the way.

until tomorrow my friends...

nothing like listening to the wind roar

in typical Ohio winter, it got warmer today and melted all the snow. that was. of course, after we had an ice storm. now the wind is whipping around 40 mph or so. sure enough, i have to put the trash out later. can't wait to see where it ends up.

i have no clue if i'm going to the funeral tomorrow or not. mom isn't feeling well and if she ends up going, i doubt she stays long. and i'm her ride, so... my sister is coming down in the morning. she was able to get a job interview changed so she could be at the funeral.

i did write another poem late last night. i typed up all 8 poems this morning. i really like a few of them. i need to get another round of submissions out, but i may wait until i get a little closer to my birthday.

if any of you feel inclined to get me something for my birthday, you can always check my Amazon.com Wish List. it's on the right hand side of the blog. cash works as well.

i was looking forward to Monday Night Raw last night. needless to say, when i fell asleep during it, i was disappointed. now, i was awake to see Chris Jericho with the US Title last night. that made me happy, although it probably means Roman Reigns is going to win the Universal Title from Kevin Owens at the Royal Rumble. boo.

i did watch the last quarter of the Alabama vs. Clemson game last night. at least Ohio State lost to the team that won the championship.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown and Taboo. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

Manchester United won 2-0 today at home against Hull City. it was the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-finals. United probably could have had half a dozen goals today if they would have gotten a little luck and if they were more clinical. Juan Mata and Marouane Fellaini scored in the second half. the second leg will be played in 16 days. United next plays Liverpool on Sunday.

that's all for me today kids. i have trash i need to get picked up. i don't think i need to go next door as they have had way too many people over there already today.

ladies and gentlemen, snow

i woke up at 4 in the morning and looked at my clock and said fuck you. thankfully, i was able to fall back to sleep and woke up again sometime around 9. when i sat up, my lower back started to scream in agony. i figured it had to be snowing. sure enough, it was. now i think it's only an inch or so. but with winds around 40 mph, things could get a little interesting out there. i figure once i get done with this, i'll be the lucky one to go out and get the newspaper. good times.

i did watch most of the playoff games last night in the NFL. it's scary to think the Bengals haven't won a playoff game since i was a freshman in high school. after watching them piss away the lead last night in the final minutes, it's easy to believe they may never win one again. as soon as they took the lead, i looked over at my mother and said, now watch them find a way to fuck this up. sure enough. i did pick both games correct. i've got Seattle and Washington today.

Austin City Limits was great last night. i really enjoy when a rapper plays with a live band. it makes the music much more dynamic. and quite honestly, i think Kendrick Lamar is one of the best in the world doing it at this moment.

ROH was spectacular last night. the main event alone was worth staying up for.
and i couldn't be happier with who won that main event either.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Shameless. i am so happy that a new season of one of my favorite shows is back. i will spend most of the night watching the Golden Globes, mostly because of Ricky Gervais.

that's pretty much all for me kids. i have some laundry i need to do. hopefully i can do that without the washer dying. and i've got a few random words flying in my head that probably need to find the page before too long. that also means i need to sit down and figure out where my next batch of submissions are going. good times.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully your Sunday is even better. call if you need bail money. i'm off to go buy lottery tickets.

off to go freeze to death

i decided to write this early today as i have a ton of shit to do today. first off, i really need to clean off the sidewalks, etc as we have to go grocery shopping today as there is a big fucking ice storm coming. second, i have to get on dead cat patrol here soon as i go out to feed them. it got down to about -20 with the windchill last night. the smell of death is at the point in the house where i'd actually rather be outside at the moment. also, i think mom wants to go shopping for shit we'll need at the new house as she is hell bent on getting there as soon as possible. needless to say, i'm preparing to be in pain by the time i get back home in the afternoon.

i really just bounced around the channels last night; a little college hockey, a little pro wrestling, a little basketball, and then i watched Treehouse Masters. i so wish i had some fuck you money where i could build a fucking treehouse like the one last night. a window wall that turns into an awning. copper roof. floating bed. 150 foot bridge to it. i guess i should start lining the poetry books with cocaine. that might do it.

after the running around today, i'm planning on enjoying some time in my chair. there are 2 NFL playoff games that i plan on watching today. also, the Dayton Flyers play at Fordham tonight. they are favored to win that game as well. if they do, i believe that would be 6 straight wins. also tonight, the New York Rangers play at San Jose. i would love for them to finish off the California portion of their road trip with a sweep of the teams. that would be awesome. hopefully i will be enjoying a couple of victory beers when i'm watching a new episode of ROH late tonight.

i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow as Manchester United plays late in the morning. so it might be one of those as soon as i wake up blogs. good times. but i do know i have a busy ass Sunday ahead as well, between sports, shows, Golden Globes, trash day, approaching storm, etc. etc. i suppose the assholes are correct; there is no rest for the wicked.

that's all for me today. i hope everyone has a great start to their weekend. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.
