it's just blood

i suppose if i was thinking, i wouldn't have started moving shit in the garage while wearing shorts. i cut myself while moving a filing cabinet. just a little cut on my leg. thankfully, the cold helped it clot pretty quickly. but, i got everything done in the garage, so the insulation should go smoothly on Friday.

the New York Rangers got obliterated last night by Pittsburgh 7-2. as soon as i saw the coach was starting the backup goalie again, i didn't watch past the first Penguins goal. i think the injuries have finally caught up to the Rangers when playing good teams. the boys take on Minnesota on Friday.

to cement a shitty night, i heard back from Rose Red Review on my poetry submission from October. apparently the poems were good but just didn't fit the direction of the issue. it's sort of like getting your pants down, teasing yourself and then deciding to go to sleep instead.

the season finale of Scream Queens was excellent.

the Tony Bennett special last night was much better than i thought it was going to be.

205 Live was excellent last night. Neville makes the show must watch.

Smackdown was off the charts great last night. i loved Renee Young slapping The Miz. making the world title match a triple threat next week is great, especially with Baron Corbin involved. add in some Becky Lynch trickery and all in all, it was a great show.

i'm going to the game with my sister which should be interesting. she's been with me at enough sporting events to know i'm a little bit crazy when it comes to this shit.

might as well get it all done at once

i decided since i was going to the grocery store today, i might as well go to the bank as well. and then i figured, i had to do the trash, i might as well start moving the shit in the garage i have to move since i'm going to be cold anyway.

i spent almost $300 at the grocery store. when mom handed me the scroll, i knew i wasn't going to have anytime to hit the liquor store up. now, most of the money was gift cards and over the counter medicine. it was me and the elderly hunting the scraps basically when it came to the Christmas ham. luckily, i found what i was looking for.

i went next door to get the trash done after i put the groceries away. my cousin's husband said that my uncle will be coming home on Friday. that should be nice, if he actually does get to come home. i know everyone would love to see him home for Christmas.

my sister came down today. she's going to go to the basketball game with me tomorrow and Friday. that should be interesting.

i did watch a good amount of The Wall last night on NBC. i could easily see this become one of those addicting game shows at night. i was rooting for the couple to lose all the money, mostly because i'm an asshole. but, having the first episode show a couple walk away with $1.3 million is a pretty good way to attract viewers.

Monday Night Raw was sort of blah for most of the night. i do love Neville as a heel. and i loved what they did with Braun Strowman at the end. having him destroy Rollins and Reigns was excellent. that sets up a very interesting top of the card on Raw now.

the New York Rangers play tonight at Pittsburgh. Rick Nash is out injured again. it's somewhat amazing the Rangers are playing as well as they are with so many injuries. tonight will be a stiff test for them.

i'll be on here sometime tomorrow, probably after i get done moving shit in the garage. they are going to insulate the back wall of the garage. i wish i would have known that before i put up all that shit on it. i now have posters to take down and other shit. plus move a few shelves and boxes, filing cabinets, etc. good times.

i hope this finds you well, having your Christmas shopping done and not looking to kill someone in your family.

when talent overcomes shitty officiating

as some of you know firsthand, i HATE when officials get obvious calls wrong in sports. today was 2 of the worst fucking calls i have EVER seen get wrong and how the fuck the humans missed them is beyond me. now, i have some conspiracy theories, especially since Manchester United was involved.

i didn't see Paul Pogba's goal in the first half, where he was offside. it's somehow United's fault that they never called it. so when the blind asshole missed a beyond obvious handball in the box, i was furious. then, less than 2 minutes later, they took away a goal from Juan Mata that wasn't offside or even fucking close to it. i was damn near apoplectic. my thought was since Pogba scored right before the end of the first half, these stupid fucks saw at halftime their mistake and was bound to make sure they didn't help United at all in the second half, especially since Crystal Palace had tied the game at 1 by this point. enter a perfectly weighted ball from Pogba to Zlatan Ibrahimovic  and HOLY SHIT, what a goal. 88th minute. United goes on to win the game 2-1. a vital 3 points to keep pace with the front runners. i absolutely love when talent can overcome shitty officiating.

i was so happy to get The Voice winner correct last night. Sundance Head absolutely deserved to win.

Smackdown was very good last night. i can't wait for the match between Dolph Ziggler and AJ Styles.

205 Live was excellent last night. the triple threat match this weekend between TJ Perkins, Rich Swann and The Brian Kendrick should steal the show.

speaking of this weekend, congrats to my friend Sam Roberts on being able to scratch something off the bucket list as he will be a co-host on the pre-show to the ppv for the WWE this weekend.

Scream Queens was fantastic last night. i can't wait to see the season finale next week.

the New York Rangers lost last night 2-1. it was another great game with Chicago. the boys had a great effort but ran into a hot goalie in the 3rd period. they play again at Dallas tomorrow, a game in which i think The King will be back in net.

there are supposed to be people show up here tomorrow to do our foam insulation. considering the windchill will be well below zero tomorrow, i'll believe it when i see it.

i know i will have to do some grocery shopping tomorrow as well.

the roads were much better than i thought they were going to be today. i got mom to her appointment early and thankfully they were able to get her in early.

i'll be on here tomorrow in the afternoon sometime i suppose. not sure if it will be before or after the grocery store.

break out the shovel

the experts said we would get 1 to 3 inches of snow today. so when i went out to get the paper this morning, seeing the snow wasn't a surprise. now, when it was still snowing this afternoon and i needed to go next door to do the trash, that 1 to 3 was now up to around 5 inches of snow. great. so now i needed to break out the shovel and break a sweat. good times.

no heart attack while shoveling, so...

i really thought The Voice was pretty good last night. i think the final two will be between Sundance and Billy. i really want Sundance to win.

Monday Night Raw started off strong and ended strong last night. in between was roughly 2 1/2 hours of blah, except for the Sami Zayn segment with Mick Foley. both triple threat tag team matches last night were excellent. hats off to The New Day for setting the record for the longest reigning WWE tag team champions.

mom has a doctor's appointment tomorrow at the same time Manchester United is playing. i'm going to have to figure out a way to follow the game while sitting in the waiting room.

i will most likely do a blog after i get home. i know i have pills and more shit to get from the grocery store. it looks like the weather is only going to get worse the rest of this week. good times.

75 years later...

does this day still live in infamy? i really want to believe so, but i highly doubt it. now, if you are connected to the military at all, i would imagine December 7th means a great deal to you. but for the millions of people who detest war and everything else that goes along with it, i'm not sure if they actually give a shit. i'm definitely not a pro war kind of guy, but i do respect anyone who ever wore the uniform, including my father, grandfather, etc. too many people don't respect the person in the uniform. i imagine that's why there are so many homeless veterans and also why we have shitty mental health services in this country. i imagine those are 2 arguments for a different day. but, i urge everyone to do a little research for themselves on Pearl Harbor and why you should actually give a shit.

i spent most of this afternoon getting all the Christmas cards/gifts ready to mail out tomorrow. i can just imagine the horror at the post office when i walk in. hopefully there isn't a fucking line.

the Dayton Flyers started off slow last night, once again. i loved what the coach did this time. he immediately pulled 4 of the starters out of the game and put in bench players. that's exactly how you get their attention, take away playing time. considering Dayton was playing a Division II school, i could see why some of the guys thought it was going to be a cakewalk. once the Flyers got their shit in gear, it was. Dayton won 91-59. they play next on Saturday against ETSU.

the New York Rangers lost last night to the last place Islanders 4-2. thank god the game was over before i got home. the injury bug has hit the team again. i swear, if it's not one thing, it's another. they next play at Winnipeg tomorrow.

i had 3 of the 4 finalists on The Voice correct. when i saw who was in the final 3 to compete to see who made the last spot, i figured the Country Mafia would strike again. sure enough...

i really hope Sundance wins it all, but i honestly could see Billy winning it. that would certainly make me sick to my stomach.

Scream Queens was hilarious last night.

Smackdown was excellent last night. everything on the show just clicked. it was fantastic.

205 Live was very interesting last night. i'm happy Rich Swann is still the champ, but i can definitely see a feud coming up with TJ Perkins.

i'll be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the Europa League. of course, the pitch looks horrible, so i have no idea if they will actually play.

a miserable night of rain

it had to be around 2 in the morning when i started to ache. i knew it was raining outside. the ache has started to leak into my dreams. they are slowly becoming weird acid flashbacks; like Burroughs and Hunter S. Thompson have stopped over for a beer and some good H. i usually don't mind the company, though i would like to have one good night of sleep before i die.

i just happened to check on the Christmas gifts i ordered and one was apparently delivered last night by the post office. my first thought was bullshit. i opened the front door and there it was. thankfully, it was fucking dry. i just love how the post office will never knock on the door or ring the bell when they bring something to the house. thank god i forgot to turn on the outside lights last night. i doubt that package would have still been there this morning.

The Voice was pretty good last night. i thought most of the performers had their best performances of the season last night. they get cut from 8 to 4 tonight. if i had to guess, i think the 4 will be Billy, Sundance, Brendan and We, even though i think there's a small chance Ali gets in over We. here are some of the performances from last night.

Monday Night Raw wasn't horrible last night, but it wasn't great either. so i guess 3 good shows in a row is all they can do now. once again, the whole show is being carried by Jericho and Owens, which speaks well of them and really bad of the creative staff. they certainly could use the KISS theory when it comes to the writing.

the New York Rangers play the fucking Islanders tonight. they usually do well when i don't watch, so maybe they will win tonight.

i've got a poem stuck in my head. i'm not sure when the fuck it's going to find its way out, but i'm hoping it's not like normal and it happens when i'm taking a shit.

that's all for me kids. i've got things to do and would like to sneak a nap in before i leave for the game tonight.

time for some drinking

i was curious to see how Manchester United was going to play today. scoring 90 seconds into the match against West Ham certainly got my hopes up. going to break at 1-1 was a little frustrating. but, a very dominant second half sent the boys into the semifinals of the EFL Cup with a 4-1 win. that's much more like it. they will play Hull City in the semifinals. the next match in the Premier League is on Sunday against Everton. 2 goals each today from these two:

i thought the manager said it best:

and HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look who is still alive:

the roar when he came on brought a smile to my German soul.

the New York Rangers fell behind 2-0 last night. i was interested to see what kind of character the team had built so far this season. they scored the next 3 goals to win 3-2 over Carolina. that's a good sign. they play next against Buffalo.

The Voice was interesting last night. 2 of 3 in the bottom were definitely who i thought was going to be down there. but, i certainly didn't expect Blake's team to lose 2 people last night.

Scream Queens was excellent last night.

i really enjoyed Van Morrison: Live at the Rainbow. it was a performance from 1973 and it simply reaffirmed my belief that i'm an old soul.

Smackdown was great last night. so was 205 Live on WWE Network. i'm so damn happy for Rich Swann.

i had to go to the grocery store today to pick up some of mom's medications. the woman working the counter at the pharmacy has me perplexed. she seems to be almost flirting with me but i can't decide if that's my brain fucking with me or is she actually interested. of course, i'm naturally shy, amazingly enough. so i'm pretty quiet and respectful, you know, thank you, you do the same, etc. type of shit. now, if i happen to have a little alcohol in me, all bets are off. just wanted all of you to know where the next set of poems will be coming from.

hard to believe that December starts tomorrow. i guess i need to start getting the Christmas cards ready to go out. i may put out some surprises as well this year, not sure yet. if a little whimsy gets blown up my ass, who knows what will happen.

just trying to be productive

mom didn't have any of the complications i had with the shots she got yesterday. i am really happy about that. hopefully these shots work out good enough that she doesn't have to have surgery on her back.

i decided i was going to be a productive fucker today. for someone consumed with apathy, it's an accomplishment to even think it. i did the dishes, cleaned the toilets, went to the bank and grocery store, got gas and got the trash picked up here and next door. on top of all that, i also put out bird food. i figured it's going to rain tomorrow, so i'm sure the little fuckers would want it. all in all, not a bad day, although i could use a fucking nap.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. they are actually on a streak of good shows, amazingly enough. i did enjoy the main event between Sasha Banks and Charlotte. i love just how far women's wrestling has come since i started watching wrestling when i was a child.

Gotham was spectacular last night. two major twists and an oh fuck ending... man, January can't get here soon enough.

i generally hate the holidays. too many god damn memories of dysfunctional families in my youth. plus, being molested by a cousin didn't help matters. so with Thanksgiving tomorrow, i was hoping for a nice and quiet day. i woke up this morning to rain and the trash guy leaving the fucking lid open on the trash can. nothing quite like being pissed off and in pain at 8 in the morning.

i'm busy trying to write this while doing laundry for my mom and talking to my sister on the phone. joy.

The Voice last night was good. the person i thought should have been sent home last week got voted off this week. i was a little shocked with whom she was against in the vote, but i think it's more of people voting against Miley more than anything.

Scream Queens was excellent last night.

Smackdown was really good last night. Dean Ambrose had me laughing the entire night. plus, you know it's a bizarre world when James Ellsworth is 3-0 against AJ Styles.

tomorrow should be a crazy day, between the football games, Dayton playing Nebraska in a college basketball tournament out in California and Manchester United playing in the Europa League.

and then there's that family shit as well. i figure i will help mom with some of the cooking. we made the ham today. usually my sister will bring food over from next door. and then my sister, mother and i will have a Thanksgiving dinner later in the evening.

i will probably do a little blog in the morning. in case i don't, i hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. safe travels and enjoy the food.

i knew i had to go back to the grocery store to get a few things before Thanksgiving. plus, i had my pills to get. no big deal. i told mom i wanted to go today since it's supposed to rain tomorrow. i told her to put anything she wanted or needed on the list. she handed me back a scroll. i just laughed. my neck started bothering me last night and of course, i'll have to spend more than 30 minutes in the store. these are the days where i am so damn thankful i learned how to find the pleasure in the pain so many years ago.

i managed to keep it all under $130. i guess i was also buying food for my sister to cook while she's down here. she comes down tomorrow and is staying through mom's procedure on Monday. i get the feeling i should have went to the liquor store as well.

when the New York Rangers got down 2-0 last night, i wasn't very happy. when they stormed back to score the next 5 goals, i was really fucking pleased. nothing like whipping the team that knocked you out of the playoffs last season. they will get a chance to do it again tomorrow at home.

Monday Night Raw was pretty damn good last night. the segment between Chris Jericho and Kevin Owens was so damn good. i honestly thought they were breaking up so when it was revealed as a ruse, i laughed my ass off. and when Jericho got involved in the main event between Owens and Rollins wearing a Sin Cara mask, i laughed even harder. that was the guy he reportedly got into a "real" fight with in Europe a few weeks ago. i'm hoping they can take all the positive vibes from this show and carry it to next week.

Gotham was spectacular last night. i love a show where there are so many unexpected twists that keeps me guessing what's next.

The Voice was pretty good last night. some of the performances were amazing, while others just didn't do any thing for me. i have no clue who is getting the boot tonight. here are some of the performances i really enjoyed:

i didn't sleep well last night. i could never get my neck into a good position that i didn't feel that pinched nerve feeling down my right arm. i figure i either passed out from exhaustion or my brain simply overrode the pain and allowed me to get a few hours.

snow on the weekend

just saw the weather forecast and the "experts" are saying we might get some snow flurries on the weekend. good times.

thankfully, i didn't watch much of the USA vs. Costa Rica game last night. Costa Rica won easily, 4-0. from what little i did see, which included Costa Rica scoring twice, the USA absolutely looked like they quit on their manager. if that is so, even if it is only perception, a change is needed. they aren't in a horrific spot in qualifying, but they also can't afford any more losses. if they are going to make a coaching change, the sooner the better.

the New York Rangers won last night over Vancouver 7-2. it was the second time in team history they have swept the Western Canada trip. they play again on Friday at Columbus.

i wasn't really surprised with the results on The Voice last night. voting in this country has simply gone to shit.

Scream Queens was fucking hilarious last night. i'm so happy that show is back.

there's always something...

i wrote 5 poems last night and typed them up this afternoon. i think 2 of them are really fucking good. as for the other 3, who knows. i'm probably going to send some poems out on Thursday.

i was really pumped for Dayton's game at Alabama this afternoon. i hate watching college basketball games where the officials think the fans or the ones watching on television are there to see them. it drives me nuts. adding to that, Dayton couldn't make a free throw to save their fucking life at times today. thankfully, they came from behind to win the game 77-72. sadly, they had a major (or hopefully not) injury at the end of the game to Josh Cunningham. considering Dayton is already playing shorthanded, another loss on the front line will be devastating. they next play at home on Saturday against Saint Mary's, who happens to be ranked at 17 in the polls.

The Voice last night was really good. only a couple of the performances weren't great. here are a few i really enjoyed:

Gotham was spectacular last night. the show just keeps getting better.

the HBO documentary last night, Underfire: The Untold Story of Pfc. Tony Vaccaro was very interesting. i'm a big fan of anything that has to do with WWII. i highly recommend watching this if you get the chance.

Monday Night Raw was good last night, but it isn't that high of a bar to reach to get to good any longer. i do like that Survivor Series is shaping up to be a good one.

the New York Rangers play at Vancouver tonight. hopefully they get a victory.

at the same time, team USA will be playing a World Cup qualifying game in Costa Rica. the USA really needs a result in this game. a loss will put them really behind in qualifying. sadly, i don't like their chances tonight.

i had to do some running for mom today after the Dayton game. she forgot to mail a bill out, so i had to make a dash to the bank for her. plus, she had 4 prescriptions that needed to be picked up. apparently today was the day for computers to fuck up as i had to wait at both the bank and the grocery store. as i was waiting at the grocery store, i remembered i forgot to eat lunch today. good times.

all the trash is picked up and i'm ready to take a damn nap.

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...

got a haircut today...

got a haircut today from a woman that i don't think believes in climate change. but, it's amazing the amount of bullshit i'll put up with from a beautiful woman. if we do meet again Casey, i'll do a better job of explaining why you should be concerned of warmer weather all year round.

of course, being out of the house for a few minutes today was good. sadly, i had nearly 100 emails when i got back home. it never fails.

Vice News Tonight was excellent last night.

The Voice finished the battle rounds last night. if the next round is as good as this was, this could be the best season of The Voice ever.

Smackdown was pretty good last night. i enjoyed the main event more than i probably should have. and Dean Ambrose might have just jumped his way into my top 10 wrestlers of all time when he buried John Cena when he declared James Ellsworth the winner by DQ last night. that's a good way to keep two feuds burning at once, AJ Styles and John Cena. all in all, a very good show.

Scream Queens was fucking hilarious last night.

Atlanta was brilliant once again. it also reminded me why i quit going to clubs in my 20's.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lucha Underground, Lip Sync Battle, American Horror Story, You're The Worst, Total Bellas and Any Given Wednesday. at some point tonight i'll watch NXT on WWE Network.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Detroit. hopefully i'll be enjoying a victory beer later on tonight.

i am thrilled that this fucking election cycle in this country is nearly fucking over. as someone who can't stand the political process, it's fucking unbearable.

i'm not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. i have to take mom to the doctor in the morning and Manchester United plays in the Europa League in the afternoon. if all goes well, maybe after the game i'll be on here. of course, when the fuck is that the case?

that's all for me kids. take it easy and then take it again.

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 here comes another cold front

nothing like going out to get the paper in the morning and it's in the 70's at 8 AM in mid-October. i guess the next two days are supposed to be shitty and rainy. a massive cold front is supposed to go through and actually usher in fall weather, for at least a few weeks i guess.

Manchester United started off on fire yesterday. they really pressed Liverpool and caught them off guard. sadly, they only got a few chances to actually get something like a goal, but nothing really came close. so when that didn't work, i figured The Special One was going to do what The Special One does, bunker in. sure enough United gave their best defensive effort of the season in a 0-0 draw. considering the draw kept Liverpool from going to the top of the league, i'll consider it a win.

the New York Rangers got 7 goals last night from 7 different players to beat San Jose 7-4. the defense still needs to get better, but if this offense can stay like this all season, i certainly won't get bored anytime soon.

i didn't watch much of Monday Night Raw last night. seeing that i'm not a big Goldberg fan, i know i didn't miss much. i got to see everything that went down with Jericho, Owens and Rollins, so i'm good.

The Voice was really, really good last night.

Gotham was spectacular last night.

The Big Bang Theory was very funny last night.

Vice News Tonight was excellent once again. i had no clue i should have been watching Melrose Place back in the 90's.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice, WWE Smackdown, Scream Queens and Atlanta.

since the weather is supposed to be shitty the next few days, i went to the bank today. i always laugh when i have to show my ID when depositing cash. today i had a check for over $400 and a roll of pennies. sure enough, i have to break out my driver's license for the pennies. what a world.

the trash is all picked up and i could use a nap, so that's all for today.

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