i don't see this ending well...

 my body and pain have had a very long relationship. fuck, almost my entire life. so, there are days where the pain is such that i really can't do much. either through apathy or just enormous pain, all i can muster is getting some ice and hopefully getting some sleep. the ice wasn't really working today. but, i did manage a good nap after only getting about 3 hours of sleep last night. my lipoma was very bothersome last night. that's always fun. good times.

the New York Yankees pissed away a 4-1 lead last night and lost at home to Seattle, 5-4. hopefully, they will do better tonight.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

Monday Night Raw was excellent last night.

night 1 of the season finale of The Voice was very good last night. i have no clue who will win the show tonight.

both episodes of Stax: Soulsville U.S.A. were excellent last night. hopefully, the two tonight will be even better.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, night 2 of the season finale of The Voice and two episodes of Stax: Soulsville U.S.A.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA playoffs tonight. 

so Orkin just left. they caught two squirrels the other day and forgot to tell us. thankfully, they didn't burrow into the new insulation in the attic. the noises we heard a few weeks ago was them trying to find a way out. of course, they fucked with the dryer vent and popped that out on the side of the house and got out that way. so, one of the techs will be out here tomorrow to fill in the last hole they were using and put a new dryer vent cover on. all of this is free of charge thankfully. now my concern is how the trap on the roof ended up on the ground. they told me that was screwed in, so the only way that could have been ripped down was by a racoon. oh joy.

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

it is supposed to be raining for the next few days, so i'm hoping it won't be storming too bad while i'm shopping.

that is all for me kids. until tomorrow...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

no veo bien este final

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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

something like a Japanese game show but everyone was speaking Spanish...

i think if anyone has read this blog for any length of time, you know of my problems sleeping. last night was truly fucking bizarre. i was having this vivid dream that made no fucking sense. think of something like This Is Your Life meets Double Dare. around 5 in the morning, i opened my eyes and asked myself, what the fuck are you doing? i don't believe it was an acid flashback but it was certainly as close as i have experienced in the last 20 years. i eventually had to go get an ice pack and get in my massage chair so i could actually get something resembling sleep. good times.

the Dayton Flyers defeated Saint Louis yesterday, 71-65. the Flyers are now 21-2. they have a huge game at home on Tuesday against Rhode Island. if Dayton can win that, they would lead the entire A10 by two games.

i did watch a ton of college basketball yesterday.

i also watched a good amount of the XFL yesterday. it was better than i was expecting to be honest.

ROH was pretty good last night.

Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be the series finale of Power, My Cartoon President, Homeland, two episodes of Kidding, The Outsider, Avenue 5 and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

i doubt i watch much of the Academy Awards tonight, mostly because i didn't really see any movies this past year.

the New York Rangers play at home tonight against the Kings. i might watch some of that. hopefully, they will start off much better than they did in their last game.

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

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. your guess is as good as mine.

until then...

mantén tus pies en las nubes y tu cabeza en el suelo

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

i never really cared for this day

of course, i imagine i would have a much better attitude about this day if i was in a relationship or actually had a woman in my life that loved me more than as just a good friend. and to top off today, the snow that was supposed to be 50 miles south of here somehow ended up 50 miles north and is right on top of us. that light dusting we were supposed to get is going to be 4+ inches. fuck me, i'm so fucking tired of winter.

my back nearly went out on me twice today. thank god i remembered the stretches i learned for this type of oh shit moment. the good thing was my back was hurting so much that my neck felt better. i'm slowly falling apart.

i watched a good portion of hockey in the Olympics today. good to see The King get another shutout for Sweden. i'm really looking forward to the USA vs. Russia game in the morning. hopefully i'll actually get some sleep before the game comes on.

so De La Soul was allowing people to download their entire music catalog for free today. i wasn't going to pass that up. so, i put in my email for their first album. i'm still waiting for the download code. my luck, when it arrives i won't be able to download it. at least not for free.

thankfully, my amazon.com order showed up a day early. so i've got plenty of new shit to listen to for a few months. of course, being in this house all day and night long, chances are i'll go through those 11 cd's in a few days.

in my boredom and frustration today, i took some photos...

you can see the rest of them in the slideshow on the right hand side of this blog.

not really sure what i'm going to be watching tonight on tv. i believe the NBA All-Star weekend festivities begin this evening. i suppose if i'm bored enough i'll check that out. of course, there is always my guilty pleasure tree house show on Animal Planet. beats watching the snow pile up.

i'm sure the birds are happy i got my broken bones out there to feed them today. i did see all the cats today, amazingly enough.

that's all for me. i do hope everyone has a wonderful and safe weekend. be well, be creative, be drunk, be naked by a fire but don't get too close...

peace and chicken grease.
