early one morning...

i can tell i'm in full Premier League mode now when i'm up early on a Saturday morning and my team isn't even playing. especially when i didn't get to bed until 3 in the morning. yes, i agree, it's a disease.

the Yankees were down 3-0 before there was an out recorded last night. i figured, fuck, here we go again. amazingly, the White Sox didn't score for the rest of the game. the Yankees won in the bottom of the ninth, 4-3. that was a nice victory beer. today is Joe Torre day at the stadium. they are retiring his number 6 and giving him a plaque in monument park. there should be plenty of former players back for today. another day in the forest of nostalgia. hopefully they can get another win after the ceremony.

the grocery store was a bit of an odyssey yesterday. i loved the cashier's reaction when mom put down $40 worth of coupons. fucking priceless. the people watching was ok. saw a few faces that i could perhaps make into something. not sure. i'm guessing in a week or so something will come out of this brain.

i nearly forgot The Knick was on last night. thankfully, i remembered before i went to bed. glad i did. another great episode. i highly recommend this show.

the guy who farms out here came over last night. had to pay the bill for the spring planting and whatnot. thankfully, the rain didn't damage any of the crops. so, we're looking like we might have a record harvest this year.

not sure what i'm going to watch this evening other than the new ROH episode. perhaps i'll do a little writing or maybe sit down and actually put the logo for this blog that i have in my head down on paper. just imagine what i could do if i actually knew how to do this shit on a computer.

that's pretty much all for me. i will be back on here tomorrow morning before Manchester United plays. hope everyone is having a great start to their weekend. thanks again for allowing me to waste some 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.

take it easy. and then take it again.

so much for the house of horrors

the New York Rangers have played like shit in Montreal for nearly as long as i can remember. the tide started to turn this season and today, like a team that is threatening to do something special this year, they came in and burned the fucker to the ground. they destroyed Montreal in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals, 7-2. the power play was working, the skating was great, and holy shit, RICK NASH fucking SCORED a goal for the first time in nearly forever. hopefully they can keep the ball rolling for Game 2 on Monday.

the Yankees broke out the long ball today and won 7-1. that should put them in a good mood for the doubleheader tomorrow.

and yes, both victory beers are gone.

i picked the top 3 of the Preakness correct, just in the wrong order. had the winner right though, that's all that matters.

i figured Arsenal would win the FA Cup. at least Hull City made them work for it. i also caught part of the La Liga final as well. i suppose the Barcelona superiority is officially now a myth.

i'll probably end up watching a little NASCAR tonight, right into the season finale of Saturday Night Live. if i stay awake, i'll hopefully catch the new episode of ROH. if not, i'll hopefully catch it tomorrow at noon.

the rain has held off for most of today and the sun made a rare appearance. now, it just needs to warm up.

i'll most likely be on here tomorrow sometime in the morning. i get the feeling that the doubleheader is going to run right into my Sunday night shows. and hopefully i will be refreshed like i was this morning. not sure why, but it's amazing how i feel when i actually get more than 6 hours of sleep.

hope this finds everyone well.

peace and chicken grease...
