i didn't get to sleep last night until 5 this morning. i did manage to write 3 poems last night. more on that in a bit. i woke up around 9:45 this morning and checked my phone. i believe the first words were what the fuck. being 48 years old, i'm no longer surprised by the violence, or the lack of humanity anymore. what really pisses me off anymore is how this country turns a blind eye to homegrown terrorists. we still operate with this mentality that our enemies are nations, etc. i always thought this was why we could never win in Vietnam. we don't understand guerillas or the lone wolfs that get radicalized. and we still don't. the Sugar Bowl tonight between Georgia and Notre Dame has been postponed to tomorrow night. i'm sure the death total will rise and lord knows how many IEDs they are going to find around the French Quarter. the terrorist in question is 42 years old and an American citizen. from Texas of course. just fucking crazy...
a delightful trip into the dark mind of an evil genius or simply the musings of an asshole

the day after...
as many of you know, i am not a big fan of Black Friday. i have tried to be less of a consumer as i have grown older. now, if it some crazy can't miss deal, i might take the bait, but often i will do most of my shopping to support small businesses. to me, at least, that is way more impactful than anything else shopping wise. i hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. mom wanted to do the cooking yesterday, so i let her. i could tell she was very proud of herself that everything tasted good.
i did watch all 3 football games yesterday. didn't make much money, but i did get 2 of the 3 games right. i was surprised the Lions didn't cover. i wasn't surprised when the Bears fired their coach this morning. a blind man could have seen that coming.

nothing like going to bed when the sun comes up...
yesterday was long, crazy, good, etc. and i might as well start from where we left off yesterday...
the Yankees were in the process of being no hit again yesterday. 6 1/3 fucking innings of ineptitude and then Stanton crushed a home run to dead center. that seemed to wake up the dead. the Yankees were still down 3-1 though. thankfully, DJ LeMahieu hit a 2 run homer in the 8th to tie the game at 3. the game went to extra innings. Michael King survived the top of the 10th. and then, Dusty Baker showed his age by not walking Aaron Judge in the bottom of the 10th. he hit a three run homer that gave the Yankees a 6-3 victory. now, the Astros outpiched the Yankees by a mile in this series. but, both Yankee victories in the series spilt were punches to the dick. the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Oakland.
