karma never loses...

so when the news broke last night that one of the players on the Utah Jazz had the coronavirus, i knew it was a game changer. basketball is such a sport that this kind of shit can easily be given to anyone close, either on the court, in the stands, etc. the NBA had no choice but to suspend its season and i knew that would start the snowball downhill. now, when i found out the player on the Jazz was fucking around with his teammates, touching their shit, making fun of it, i just shook my head. karma never loses. too many fucking idiots will never learn that.

then the conference tournaments in college basketball started cancelling their games. and i knew my worst nightmare wasn't far away. March Madness isn't happening this year. as a Dayton Flyers fan, given the season they have had, 29-2, 18-0 in conference, probably going to be a #1 seed for the first time in school history. etc. etc. etc. i feel so sad for the players, the coaching staff, everyone involved. this season was a fucking dream. and this ending is only a reminder that there is no such thing as a happy ending.

i did hear from the NCAA today. my refund should appear on my credit card in the next 30 business days.

the New York Rangers lost in OT last night in Colorado, 3-2. that put them just two points out of a playoff spot. of course, the NHL followed the NBA's lead and suspended its season this morning.

the MLB is pushing back the start of the regular season 2 weeks.

i think the XFL is done, MLS suspended their season for 30 days, and now i'm just waiting to see if/when WrestleMania will get postponed.

this virus is like a punch to the dick to all my sports. fuck me.

Manchester United won today in the Europa League 5-0 over in an empty stadium in Austria. i watched on a feed out of the Middle East. i'm really happy with the victory as they now can play the kids in the second leg at home.

The Masked Singer was crazy last night.

NXT was excellent last night.

AEW was really good last night as well.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Young Sheldon, the season finale of The Unicorn, Will & Grace, Indebted, Better Things, Cake and Desus & Mero.

i watched NXT UK this afternoon, it was really good.

i imagine i will be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done. given the hysteria and panic the asshole that runs this shit show has placed upon this new dystopian society, i can't wait for the fucking circus tomorrow.

that's all for me kids. we've got rain in the area and my bones are like a fucking heroin addict in need of a fix at the moment.

until tomorrow, if such a thing still exists...

could be one of the biggest days in the history of this country...

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

i will be on here tomorrow in the afternoon most likely.

have a good one kids...

almost a perfect Sunday...

might as well start where yesterday's blog stopped, Manchester United.

the satellite was fucked up, i'm guessing the snow and cold and shit, so i had to watch the game on the computer. i found it about 10 minutes into it. when Manchester United went up 1-0 on Tottenham in the first half, i was pleasantly surprised. the second half became the David De Gea half, as he put on a fucking show in goal for the ages. 11 saves in the second half alone and United won the game 1-0. that's 6 wins in 6 matches for Ole. first United manager to ever do that. and with the changes he made yesterday, i think he does have what it takes to be the permanent manager for the club if they choose to go that route. United is now just 6 points from the top 4. the rest of this season is going to be fun.

next up was the Dayton Flyers. they got off to a hot start against UMass and never trailed in the game. of course, because of the usual cold spell in the second half (this usually happens when your coach forgets the best player on the team is still on the bench), UMass did make it interesting. Dayton won 72-67. that's 6 wins in a row. they will play at VCU on Wednesday. if they make it 7 wins in a row, i will start to believe this team could win the A10 this season.

the New Orleans Saints were up next. when Drew Brees threw an interception on the first play of the game, i wasn't happy, but i wasn't worried. when the Eagles went up 14-0, i was a little concerned, but not worried yet. but, thanks to a gusty fake punt call and the defense showing up in the last 3 quarters and the offense doing just enough, the Saints won 20-14. the Saints will now play the Rams the day before my birthday with a chance to go to the Super Bowl. my new Saints shirt is now 1-0.

and then it was the New York Rangers turn to bust up a near perfect day. although, i do want them to lose as much as possible to get a good draft pick (which they will probably fuck up, but that's a different story), i want them to lose the right way, where there is at least some hope for the future. when you lose 7-5 to Columbus in a game where you were outworked the entire fucking game, it's not a good sign. thankfully, the coach saw exactly what i saw as well.

the season finale of Ray Donovan last night was fucking crazy.

both episodes of True Detective last night were really good. i can't wait to see what happens next.

Total Bellas last night was pretty good.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

mom had the driveway and sidewalks cleared off today. i can't do it anymore with my bad back. i told her since we have to go to the doctor tomorrow and my sister will be coming down for my birthday this weekend, might as well get it cleared off. it looks like they did a pretty good job.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow after mom's doctor's appointment.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

7 days until my birthday people. if you'd like to get me something, the link to my Amazon.com wish list is on the right hand side of the blog. if you're reading this on Goodreads. i'm obviously talking about the actual blog on Blogger.

the dog days are over

i woke up this morning and it was 47 degrees outside. finally, it's starting to feel like football weather. i'll just ignore that it's supposed to be back in the 80's in a few days, i'm simply just going to try to enjoy this today. i filled some of the bird feeders with the new seed we got the other day. i've never used safflower seeds before, so i'm sort of interested to see what the birds do with them. we decided to use them because squirrels apparently don't like them. hopefully skunks don't either.

the New York Yankees basically decided they don't want to win the division yesterday. the Blue Jays swept the doubleheader 9-5 and 10-7. the Yankees pissed away a few chances in the first game to actually win and then decided to just give the Blue Jays the game in the 11th inning by walking everyone possible it felt like. the second game was never as close as the score showed. the lost weekend continues today as the Blue Jays go for the sweep. thank god i will be watching something else.

Ohio State was as flat as possible yesterday. you could tell they had just played on Monday and was still feeling it. but, to show just how good this Ohio State team really is, playing flat gets them a 38-0 win over Hawaii. the defense truly ruled the day. they next play against Northern Illinois.

Manchester United and Liverpool played a first half that damn near put me to sleep. thankfully, the second half was much, much better. Blind, Herrera and the goal that got me out of my chair, from 19 year old Anthony Martial. sure, Liverpool had an amazing bicycle kick goal that will be shown for years, but they will always remember they lost the fucking game. god willing, Martial will be the second coming of Thierry Henry. a 3-1 win over those fucking scousers.

i still have ROH and a Jimi Hendrix documentary on the DVR to watch. i decided to get some sleep since i knew i had a long ass day in front of me.

alright kids, time for some music:

and now some of this and that:

the New Orleans Saints play Arizona today. given how beat up the Saints secondary is, i get the feeling this game might be a shootout. hopefully the Saints will get a win so i can enjoy a victory beer tonight.

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Ray Donovan, Masters of Sex, The Strain and Last Week Tonight. i get the feeling i know what i'll be doing on Monday afternoon.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. no one called for bail, so i figure everything is ok. enjoy your Sunday fun day. kick back, watch some television, grab a good book or a good woman, whatever is closest.

what else could go wrong

simply imagine my joy when i'm on the computer and suddenly the internet goes out. add to that the telephone going out as well. thankfully, i wasn't in the middle of typing up poems or watching porn, i was only reading some news. but, you can really imagine how much fun i had when the internet finally came back on, 6 HOURS later. fuck me. i got what shit i could do offline done in the afternoon (bank, post office). and, like usual, once i started doing shit around the house, boom, the fucker comes back on. i learned that trick at the farm. if i ever wanted the phone to ring or someone to knock on the door after i've been waiting for hours, go take a shit. it never fails.

so, once all the updates that didn't happen got over with and i got through the 72 emails i had... today turned into what i wanted it to be... poetry day. i sent out 19 poems today, 5 each to Your One Phone Call and Hiram Poetry Review, 3 each to Dead Snakes, Raw Dog Press and Pink Litter. when i hear back from these places i'll pass along the verdicts.

the light by my computer is dying, so it's sort of like typing in the dark at the moment. good times.

enjoy some music:

Big Brother went as i thought it would last night. i fully expect Jeff to get evicted tonight. as for wrestling, i didn't watch much of ROH. i had already seen it. NXT was really, really good. the main event between Sasha Banks and Charlotte was great:

but the winner of the night for me was Lucha Underground. if you haven't hopped aboard this train, do so NOW. it is shaping up to be an awesome fucking ride:

there was also plenty of funny shit last night as well:

tonight on the DVR will be Big Brother, an incredible episode of Lip Sync Battle that i fear will be one of those things you can't clean from your brain EVER, Married and the new show Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll.

as for now, i'm going to go eat dinner and enjoy what is left of a sunny, hardly any humidity at all, slight breeze, but, as usual, TOO MANY FUCKING LAWNMOWERS running, day. if i had the money, i would turn the whole fucking lawn into a putting green that would NEVER be mowed. the problem is all the elderly fuckers around here play golf and i'm pretty sure someone would peek through my windows and watch me masturbate. much to their horror, that wouldn't make me stop.

enjoy that visual boys and girls, i have more emails to catch up on.

where does the time go

i fell asleep last night flipping through the channels. i woke up a few hours later and the Yankees were still playing. mom told me this morning i was more or less unresponsive. i figure one day she hopes that includes and not breathing.

the New York Yankees last night finally won a series, winning 5-3 in 11 innings. Garrett Jones hit a HUGE 3 run homer in the 11th to help give them the win. hopefully they can get the sweep this afternoon.

Deadliest Catch was very good last night.

i helped mom load up her rental car this morning and saw her off to Columbus. she's coming back tomorrow evening, so there won't be much time for any debauchery. i do need to go to the bank, post office and grocery store. so, i suppose today i'll be playing the role of adult.

here's some late night funnies i slept through:

i have no plans to go to the farm auction today. i'm hoping the truck sells for something decent. (honestly, anything over $20 and i'll be thrilled) hopefully, the weather will get better this afternoon. it's been pretty fucking dreary so far today.

tonight will be a night full of pro wrestling. on the WWE Network will be NXT. on my DVR will be Lucha Underground, ROH and TNA. i'm really happy that ROH will be on network television. of course, TNA hasn't done well on Destination America. i'll get a good laugh if ROH does better.

also, a little thing called the Stanley Cup Final starts tonight. in most years, i'd watch. the Rangers loss is still a bit too painful. i'll probably catch some highlights. i do hope Chicago wins.

i'll also have on the DVR tonight the season finale of Brew Dogs. i love just about any show about alcohol.

i also really need to get my laundry done today. i'm staring at a mountain of dirty clothes right now. now, which ones do i put on to go out?

that's all for me today. hopefully i will get some poems out of my adventure in public today. if i do, i'll have something to talk about tomorrow.

i'll probably die one day because of this

if you didn't watch Game 7 last night, you missed out on a great conclusion to one of the better playoff series in the last decade or so. here's a long winded recap of the game:
so The King started off strong:

then, of course, Ovechkin scored to give Washington a 1-0 lead. that would last until the second period when this happened:

and just so everyone knew this was a real hockey game:

the 1-1 score stayed the same for all of the 3rd period and the first 10 minutes of overtime. Washington had a ton of chances in those 10 minutes, but The King was standing on his head tonight. and then, ecstasy:

from the Canadian broadcast:

and then every New York Rangers fan, including this one, could be like this:

watch as Mr. Guarantee (Ovechkin) tries to get through the handshake line as fast as possible:

what a fucking win. the Rangers become the first NHL team EVER to come back from 3-1 deficits in the playoffs in consecutive years. that is also their 14th straight one goal game in the playoffs. also, first time the Rangers scored a Game 7 OT goal since 1994 (the last year they won the Stanley Cup). here's some more highlights from the game:

they will play Tampa in the Eastern Conference Finals starting on Saturday afternoon.

after that game, i broke out the hard shit. a couple ice cubes, some whiskey, some cola and laughing while watching Capitals players cry. i know that makes me an evil prick, but i'm not afraid of that label, so i might as well fucking enjoy it.

the New York Yankees started off strong again last night. got some more decent pitching, but once again, forgot that they have to score more than just in the first inning. 3-2 loss to Tampa. they will look to split the series tonight.

amazingly, i also caught NXT and Lucha Underground last night. both episodes were good. here's a couple of clips:

it's amazing at how much i enjoy both of these shows more than i do Monday Night Raw most weeks.

here's some late night laughs to clean your pallet:

as for tonight, i guess i'll watch some playoff basketball and then Lip Sync Battle, The Comedians, and Louie. plus, i believe Tom Waits is supposed to be on Letterman tonight, so i'll definitely be watching that. that might end up on the DVR as well.

i was home alone for most of the day but i was so damn spent from last night, i didn't do much of anything. i broke out the vacuum, fed the birds and repaired one of the solar lights. duct tape, my old friend. other than that, read the paper and watched porn. good times.

here's some more laughs for you:

not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. i believe my sister is coming down tonight before she goes on vacation. not like i'm in the loop with what actually goes on with this family.

maybe tomorrow i'll type up some poems. that sounds like a plan.

hope this finds everyone in good spirits. unless you happen to live in Washington D.C., which had one of the worst sports nights last night in a long time. (they deserve it.)

the two sweetest words in all of sports...

to say i was a little jacked up for the New York Rangers game last night would be a great understatement. i was completely fucking wired for the game. thankfully, 40 seconds in, this happens:

The King was once again, The King:

a little more first period magic:

eventually, the Rangers got the lead up to 4-1 (holy shit, Rick Nash scored!). i felt pretty confident they weren't going to be able to score 4 more goals on The King. of course, the Rangers are apparently only allowed to play 1 goal games, so Washington did score 2 more to make it 4-3. but, that was where the game stayed. there will be a Game 7 on Wednesday. the same date as the last two Game 7 victories for the Rangers. the Capitals have already guaranteed they are going to win the game. i guess they don't understand the Rangers record at home when facing elimination or what The King's record is in Game 7's. i can't wait for Wednesday to get here. here are some highlights from the game:

at least i know i'm not the only one who goes nuts during these games:

on top of that wonderful game, the New York Yankees got a masterful pitching performance from Michael Pineda yesterday. 16 strikeouts in just 7 innings. the best one though, no fucking walks. he's truly the ace now:

the Yankees won 6-2. they took 3 out of 4 against Baltimore. now, it's back down to that dump in Tampa.

after those two victory beers, i decided to catch up on the shows i missed. i mixed in a few hours of sleep as well before i finished up this morning. Nurse Jackie was really good. not sure how they are going to finish up this series just yet. Happyish was fucking brilliant. Silicon Valley was great once again. Veep was great also. Penny Dreadful was very dark and beautiful at the same time. one of the best shows EVER. and finally, Last Week Tonight once again was truly fucking brilliant:

tonight on the DVR will be the semi-finals of The Voice and Men in Blazers. i'll be flipping between the baseball game and Monday Night Raw for most of the night.

of course, we're under a tornado watch at the moment, so everything is subject to change.

i've got a few ideas for some new YouTube videos in my head. it truly all depends if the new solar lights we got work the way they are supposed to.  i also have a few poems swimming around up here as well.

i think mom and i are going to head over to the farm later today, weather permitting. mostly to see if the cats are still alive or have they all run away. i'm truly hoping i don't find any dead ones.

that's all for me today. hope everyone had a great weekend. hopefully all the mothers out there had a great Sunday. if not, let's just hope your children haven't had any children of their own.

welcome to the 27th day of National Poetry Month. i'm going the YouTube route again today. these three poems though blew me the fuck away when i watched them. enjoy:

the New York Yankees won last night against the Mets, 6-4. that's three series won in a row now. they start a series with Tampa tonight. hopefully they can keep on rolling.

i did watch all of Extreme Rules last night on the WWE Network. it was MUCH better than i was expecting. the only match that did nothing for me was Cena vs. Rusev. that's mostly because i can't stand John Cena. amazingly, the match that i liked the best was Roman Reigns vs. The Big Show. that was much better than it should have been. all in all, i was pleasantly surprised. hopefully Monday Night Raw is good tonight. i know they are bringing back The King of the Ring tournament. that should make for some fun.

the Sunday night shows were excellent. Nurse Jackie was really good. Happyish was a rerun of the pilot episode. i think it's going to be a really good series. Silicon Valley was great. Veep was fucking hilarious. Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual. watch:

tonight on the DVR will be The Voice and Gotham. i imagine i probably should watch some of Game 7 tonight between the fucking Islanders and the fucking Capitals. the winner faces the New York Rangers in the next round.

mom wanted to go out shopping today. we went to this grocery store that you can also buy just about everything else at. hell, most of the stores around here are turning into this type of place. i did convince mom that i should try Bud Light's new Long Island Iced Tea mix just to see if it is any good or not. good times.

i think tomorrow she wants to go out and try to find a better chair for her at her computer. so, i suppose in the afternoon we'l make a journey to Office Depot or something.

that's all for me today. one of these fucking days i'll get around to sending out some more poems. i've got a couple of places in mind.

tonight's the night

the propane tank is full. the ice has been cleared off the sidewalks. the cats and birds have been fed and forgotten about. i'm effectively blocking the pain in my arm and back with adrenaline and hope. tonight's the night. i know there are only so many times in my life i get to watch the team i have rooted for since my birth to have the chance to go win a championship. to have it be the first one decided in a playoff, which makes it a "true" championship... priceless. there's also the little vow of mine if one of my teams wins a championship, this goatee i've been growing since the last championship will come off. the caveat of course is i will NEVER shave again. so, tonight has many, many consequences. here's the hype video Ohio State put out for the game. needless to say, i'm ready to run through a fucking wall:

hopefully tonight goes much better than yesterday did. Manchester United controlled just about all 90 minutes. they forgot to just keep it simple stupid and score. so, of course, they lost to a team they shouldn't have. they are still in the top 4, barely. i was beyond pissed for most of the rest of the day.

i did get to watch the episode of ROH i slept through. a great episode to start off 2015.

the NFL playoff games were good. i split on picking the games. i'm now 6-2 in the playoffs.

i watched a little bit of The Golden Globes. i did laugh at some of it. i did love Jeremy Renner's line about J-Lo.

the Sunday night shows were pretty good. Girls had a great ass eating scene and not much else. Togetherness i really liked. i think that show will be really good. Shameless was great, as usual. loved the nudity and flirting. House of Lies was good if you remembered last season. Episodes was pretty good. Total Divas was more mindless shit, though i wouldn't mind seeing the uncensored version of it.

other than the game tonight, i might check out Monday Night Raw and the Men in Blazers if the game is going bad for Ohio State. i know "Macho Man" Randy Savage is supposed to be announced for the WWE Hall of Fame tonight. hopefully they do that before the game starts. he's one of my favorites of all-time.

i had a horrible time falling asleep last night. between my bad back and this shitty weather, i might have got 3 hours at best. if Ohio State wins tonight, i doubt i will get that much.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. it will be sometime before the New York Rangers game, i do know that.

i hope everyone had a great weekend. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

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.

i bounced around the channels last night, eventually settling on some UFC and then Treehouse Masters. i also did the dishes, which fucking sucked. i could tell some rainy weather was coming. but, an ice pack and a victory beer helped calm that pain down.

the bank was a little slow today. mostly because of the woman wearing socks and sandals. she had no clue how to fill out a deposit slip. as i got back in the car, i told my mother i'm amazed that i haven't killed everyone in this town. as you might imagine, it's one of those days.

we went to the grocery store to get my mother's prescriptions and a few things. it turned into getting stuff for breakfast tomorrow, lunch today, and what we're going to make on New Year's Day. as i was walking around, i could feel myself getting depressed. all these beautiful women with rings on their fingers or worse yet, the beautiful ones that can't be even 15 years old yet. of course, my brain operates in poems now, so each face is quickly matched up with a few lines. if i manage to make it through life and not be diagnosed as insane, i'll be amazed.

there's plenty of sports on today i want to watch. Kentucky plays Louisville in college basketball here in a few minutes. i believe team USA plays in the 2015 World Juniors today. also in hockey, the Rangers play the Devils tonight. that's always fun (when the Rangers win). there's a few college football games today i want to check out. and tonight, i want to catch the Tag Team Wars episode of ROH. i imagine there will be eating and pooping breaks sometime in that time span. and i constantly need to check my emails or i end up with 100 out of nowhere. good times.

i will probably be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays. it's also trash day and there is plenty of that to take down to the end of the lane. there's another fucking thing i won't miss.

i hope everyone is having a great weekend. if not, pour yourself something stronger to drink like i'm going to do. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...

the joys of victory...

as i watched the New York Rangers fall behind last night, i was pretty fucking annoyed. but, for the first time this season, they showed some of the character they had last season on their run to the Stanley Cup Final. the Rangers were trailing 3-1 early in the 3rd period. they came back to tie the game in regulation, and then win it in OT. i'll take a 4-3 OT win over the fucking Devils any day of the week. that victory beer tasted sweet. below are some highlights...

you have to love a game winning goal from a defenseman that hardly ever scores... they play again on Saturday night up in Montreal. that is if there isn't anymore shootings up in Canada.

The Voice was good last night. i'm still going with Reagan James to win it, even though i feel like a dirty old man when i watch her perform. she's fucking amazing for 15 years old. the knockout rounds start next week. those should be interesting as the contestants pick the songs they perform. i've seen many a dream die with a bad choice.

i was a busy boy this morning sending out some poems. i had to do a quick change as one of the places i was sending to is currently closed for submissions. luckily, i've been at this long enough that none of that kind of shit throws me off. i sent out 22 poems in total. 5 each to Horror Sleaze Trash and The Southern Review. i sent out 3 each to Pyrokinection, Napalm and Novocain, Dead Snakes, and The Camel Saloon. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.

mom and i went out to lunch today. i figured we'd go to the one sports bar she likes as it would be a good test for her hearing aid. let's just say i don't think her hearing aid is going to work out. the scary shit is she thinks her shunt may be acting up. of course, i try to play it cool, but if she's scared and she's the medical professional, what fucking right do i have to try to act like i'm not worried to death? we went to the store afterwards and she started to feel a little funny. not exactly dizzy but just weird. needless to say i drove us home. thank goodness i wasn't speeding when i saw the cop trying to bust drivers for it. and thank goodness i only had 1 beer while at the sports bar.

i watched a little of the champions league while i was at the sports bar. mostly, it was watching Real Madrid put on a show.

tonight i'll be watching American Horror Story and maybe some hockey or baseball. should be a relatively quiet night. of course, it's supposed to get down into the 30's tonight, so i'll definitely hear the furnace running.

that's pretty much all for me today. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

the long weekend...

i woke up early this morning, too early if you ask me. but, i knew i had plenty of shit to do before i embark on the trip up to Columbus for some hockey. most of that is done, thankfully.

i did watch Landon Donovan's final game last night with team USA. he nearly scored, which would have brought the house down. he did help set up the only goal scored for the USA. they ended up drawing with Ecuador 1-1. a great lesson of what happens when you don't take advantage of your opportunities. but, all the praise that Landon got and it still getting is deserved. he has taken soccer to heights in this country that have never been seen before. hopefully all of us are better off for that.

The Knick was excellent last night. if anyone wants to know what being an addict is like, last night's episode should be exhibit A. i can't wait to see what happens on the season finale next week.

instead of watching college football today, i'll be on the way to Columbus to see the New York Rangers take on the Blue Jackets. we got an email from my sister yesterday warning us about all the other shit going on (pregame, outside, etc) so we should get there early. it's windy and chilly, so hopefully it warms up nicely. though, the advantage to being fat and hairy is the cold doesn't bother me at all. i'm more thinking about my mother.

i doubt i will be home in time to watch Saturday Night Live. i'll have to hope for a little YouTube help on that one. hopefully i will get to catch the new episode of ROH late tonight.

my buddy Paul is coming over for some football on Sunday. more or less, about 5 hours of us sitting around shooting the shit and bitching about our fantasy football teams.

i messed around with my fantasy hockey roster last night. nothing quite like sitting at the computer at 1 in the morning wondering which guy do i take... i usually will quickly remind myself of an old adage.. think long, think wrong.

i need to get a little lunch in me and get a shower. i will probably be back on here early Sunday morning to provide the aftermath of the game tonight. i'm really hoping i get to enjoy a victory.

hope everyone has a great weekend. enjoy it. have a few drinks. fuck a beautiful person. laugh like a lunatic and don't forget to hide the evidence well.

thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

let the freak show begin...

i decided i better let myself cool down after my little adventure today. the way some of the assholes out there were driving, i thought the lord might be telling me NOW is the time to start running motherfuckers off of the road. but, i was in my mother's SUV, so that wasn't going to happen. now, if i was in my shitty truck, i might be in jail right now.

but, on the bright side of life, i made $41 selling some music off today. that means i can actually get a haircut before the weekend comes. plus, i might just have enough left over to have a beer at the hockey game.

i didn't watch much on television last night. some PBS, a little baseball, some of The Voice recap and that was about it.

tonight is the start of the NHL season. i'll be flipping between games until 10 pm. then, i'll be watching the new season of American Horror Story. it looks like it's going to be really fucking weird, so i'm guessing i'm really going to enjoy it.

my fantasy hockey lineup is in order. i'm going to be really interested to see how they start the season. i've got some kids on the team that haven't exactly proven themselves at the NHL level just yet. i'm hoping they get off to a good start as i don't want to spend the first month rebuilding my team like i needed to last season. plus, after 2 straight years of losing in the finals, i'm really hoping to get that shitty taste out of my mouth.

i'm holding my breath over a fantasy football injury scare today. when you hear you best WR was carted off the practice field this afternoon, you know it's not good. i do have options to replace him if he can't play this Sunday, but i'd rather not have to do that. fingers are crossed...

so it looks like my tomorrow will be a morning of laundry, a haircut in the afternoon, and the start of the New York Rangers season in the evening. i'll squeeze in a blog post in there somewhere. i'm guessing the morning as i'm waiting for my underwear to get clean.

enjoy that visual...

the cats didn't look pleased with me today when i fed them 2 hours later than i usually do. i was busy burning music. i gave them a little extra. i am pleased that the young ones have realized how important water is for them. of course, that probably means the little fuckers are going to make it through the winter.

for some reason, mom brought home Chinese food for lunch today. and guess what, there was so much, that is what i'm having for dinner as well. sesame chicken. i'll have to pair it with something. perhaps a strong beer...

there was a young girl in this area that committed suicide at school the other day. i have a good feeling i know what i'm going to be writing about in the coming days. so, here's my little warning to all the editors out there... get ready for some fucking DARK poetry.

that's all for me today. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your time.
