at least the sun is out today...

 i woke up this morning around 6:30 AM. i looked at the clock and said fuck you. just once, i would love to sleep and the clock say PM on it. 

i fed the birds this morning. i figured since it is supposed to rain tomorrow, i should put some food out there for them today. feel a little sorry for my neighbor, who parked his SUV outside this morning. i have a feeling that might become target practice for the birds.

the New York Yankees beat Boston yesterday, 4-2. they go for the sweep of the series tonight.

the New York Rangers defeated Ottawa last night, 5-1. they have a legitimate shot at winning the division as they are now tied with Carolina at 100 points. i can't wait to grow the playoff beard. i have a feeling this season i might not be shaving until June.

the USWNT defeated Uzbekistan yesterday, 9-1. 

i did catch a few MLS games yesterday.

here are your three videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

Saturday Night Live was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Power Book IV: Force, Shining Vale, the season finale of Billions, the season finale of Super Pumped: The Battle for UBER, Last Week Tonight and Game Theory with Bomani Jones.

and i'm sure between some baseball, basketball, hockey, golf and soccer, i'll work in a nap sometime this afternoon to catch up on some sleep.

i should be on here tomorrow after mom's physical therapy appointment.

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

until tomorrow...

what happens when the pain wins...

 my arthritis has been killing me today. i believe these are the days morphine was created for.

so, let me start with the good news. the New Orleans Saints defeated Washington yesterday, 33-22. Jameis Winston threw 4 touchdowns, which made up for his two turnovers, i guess. the hail mary at the end of the first half was awesome. that happened just a little after the pizza mom wanted arrived. all in all, a good way to go into the bye week. hopefully, most of the injured players will be back after the bye.

the USMNT lost to Panama last night, 1-0. i'm not sure why they rotated the team as much as they did. i'm not sure why the coach waited so long to get Ricardo Pepi into the game. and honestly, the whole team was fucking naive about playing in Panama. so fucking frustrating to watch. hopefully, they will play much better on Wednesday in Columbus against Costa Rica.

the season finale of Heels was excellent last night. i really hope it gets a second season.

BMF was good last night.

Axios was good last night.

the finale of Scenes From a Marriage was really good last night.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

American Rust was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and The Voice.

i did listen to episode 364 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can listen to that by going here:

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

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

breakfast at noon again

i spent most of last night watching television, so when i got into my room around 2 in the morning, i knew i was going to have a shit load of emails to check. sure enough, 165 emails later and it was nearly 5 in the morning. joy. anyone want to buy me a new television for my room?

in case you were wondering, Manchester United lost 3-0 yesterday. they are out of the Champions League. so now, all the emphasis has to be put on getting into the top 4 of the Premier League. they will probably have to win out in the league for that to happen. joy.

i am still fucking stunned that Columbus swept Tampa Bay in the NHL playoffs. i told my sister she needs to do herself a favor and get tickets for the next round. the Blue Jackets will either play Toronto or Boston.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

the New York Yankees whipped Boston last night, 8-0. i'd love to see that again tonight.

The Voice was pretty good last night. i didn't mind any of the performers that are now eliminated from the show. now, that might change next week.

i thought Smackdown was pretty good last night. the superstar shakeup should make the shows more interesting, that is of course, if creative doesn't drop the ball, as usual.

205 Live was pretty good last night as well.

Miz & Mrs. was hilarious last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show was excellent last night.

Deadliest Catch was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, What We Do in the Shadows and Dark Side of the Ring. i'll be watching the playoffs and some baseball for most of the evening. i'll catch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i did watch NXT UK this afternoon. it was good, as usual.

the trip to the bank was good today. it was warm enough to actually have the window down and the radio up. and i guess the woman at the bank must know me now. it was the first time in months that i didn't need to show my ID. mom wanted Burger King for lunch today. i think it's because of the frozen drinks.

here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

the rain is supposed to be moving in soon. at least, that's what my arthritis is telling me and everyone mowing their fucking grass today. of course, ours didn't get mowed.

i'll probably be on here in the afternoon tomorrow.

until then...

much later than i thought this was going to be...

the Royal Rumble was good last night, but long as hell and has thrown everything in my life (television watching, etc) into fucking chaos. i had to get sleep last night as i needed to make sure i got mom to her appointment today to get the injection for her osteoporosis. so, that meant i only watched a couple of the Sunday night shows last night and had to catch up today. and then for some fucking reason, people find it necessary to email me constantly...

anyway, let's get this dog and pony show on the road...

i did write 12 poems this afternoon in the waiting room while mom was getting her injection. i have no damn clue when i will type them up.

the Royal Rumble was very good, just too fucking long. i believe between the pre-show and post show special on WWE Network, i watched 8 hours straight of wrestling. but, the people i wanted to win the Rumble matches did (Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins) so i'm pretty happy.

Total Bellas was pretty good last night.

Celebrity Big Brother was crazy last night.

today, i caught up on the rest of the shows.

True Detective was fucking great.

Crashing was pretty good.

High Maintenance was fucking hilarious.

Shameless was really good.

Black Monday was really funny.

SMILF was good.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Celebrity Big Brother, Monday Night Raw and Breslin and Hamill: Deadline Artists.

although i didn't get to see any of the game, i did catch the highlights of the USMNT defeating Panama last night 3-0. that's a good start for the new coach.

i will be on here tomorrow after i get back from taking mom to physical therapy. that happens around the same time Manchester United is playing tomorrow.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. if you don't see a blog on here the next couple of days, it probably means i have frozen to death. good times.

time for a hot Friday the 13th...

should be a joy wearing all black as hot as it is going to be today. i'm one of those superstitious fucks, so today is one of those days where i truly get to enjoy it. and seeing that 13 is my lucky number, hopefully the concept of luck is true today.

the New York Yankees fell behind last night against one of the best pitchers in baseball. thankfully, the offense showed up in Cleveland and made sure it didn't matter. the Yankees defeated the Indians 7-4 last night. that puts the Yankees 30 games over .500 for the season (61-31). hopefully they will win again tonight.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Big Brother was excellent last night. i absolutely love that Scottie was the one that had them wear the Swaggy C shirts and then he stabbed him in the back and voted him out. loved it. Scottie then went out and won HOH. of course, he then told everything to Tyler, who i'm starting to think is production's favorite and is whom they want to win the show.

Lip Sync Battle was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE and Major League Wrestling.

i have to take mom to her bullshit doctor's appointment this afternoon. this is her former employer's attempt to prove that she can still work and they don't have to pay her disability anymore. mom's back is killing her. thankfully, she gets an injection for that at the end of this month.

after that, i will do the grocery shopping. i have no clue how long her appointment will be. i wouldn't be shocked if i'm getting to the grocery store around 3 or 4 this afternoon. joy.

i do plan on doing some writing while at mom's doctor's appointment. hopefully i have some good poems swimming in this head today.

i will be on here tomorrow after the 3rd place game at the World Cup between England and Belgium.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

one of those days

when Manchester United got scored on 11 seconds into the game today, i almost chuckled. of course, there was a string of about 50 curses in a row instead of the laughter, but i should have known something like this was going to end this month. then Phil Jones couldn't figure out his own feet and scored on his own goal. well, fuck me, no point in watching the rest of the game. and i was truly hoping i could actually enjoy a little alcohol tonight. silly me.

Smackdown was pretty good last night.

i like the direction 205 Live is going in. a 16 man tournament to crown the new champion, with the final match being at WrestleMania. that works for me.

Baskets was pretty funny last night.

Hate Thy Neighbor was excellent last night, especially the last segment. the whole free speech debate in this country is fucking stupid. as the host put it, people have forgot how to mind their own fucking business. and since everyone thinks their opinion is more important than anything else, it's an endless cycle of bullshit.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

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

well, the snot is no longer running down my throat. now, it is just sort of stuck around my nose. so fucking great. i'd love to break this fucking cold tonight so i could get back to everything i had planned for February. i doubt that's going to happen though.

it's been windy as fuck here today. nothing like going out to get empty trashcans going down the street in a winter coat and house shoes.

i have no damn clue when i'll be on here tomorrow.
