hurry up and wait...

 so, i had to go to the bank today and to Kroger to get my pills. the bank took forever. i think they had one woman working the inside and drive-thru. so, by the time i left there and got to Kroger, the pharmacy was on their lunch break. so, i decided i might as well try to remember what was on the grocery list and get it done while they were on break. i got everything i could remember (it was all but 2 items that i forgot) and then got it line at the pharmacy. checkout for the groceries was very interesting. the register wasn't taking off the right amounts on certain things. i will give the lady running it credit, she was on it. thankfully, what i got cost less than $100, and that includes my pills. 


the New York Rangers won last night at home against Nashville, 4-0. they play tonight at home against the Islanders. the Rangers are 2 points out of a playoff spot.



both episodes of The Americas last night were excellent.



The White Lotus was great last night.



Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.


Yellowjackets last night was fucking crazy.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Voice. i'll watch Monday Night Raw sometime tonight on Netflix.


i just downloaded the Telegram app for my phone. i imagine nothing but chaos. but, since i will have a new book out soon, i know i have to whore it around.

at least the humidity went away...

 i was actually able to open up the house today. a nice cool breeze this morning was flowing through. i got some more horrible sleep. sadly, i am used to it. i did get the house vacuumed today. that took a toll on my back. i was hoping a really good shower would help that. it didn't.


the Yankees won again last night, 8-5, at home against the Twins. the only thing that ruined the victory was the injury to Juan Soto. turns out it is just some elbow inflammation he has been dealing with for the last 10 days or so. so, a few days off and he will (hopefully) be fine. they start a series tonight at home against the Dodgers.





here are your highlights from Game 1 of the NBA Finals:



I Can See Your Voice was very good last night.



Don't Forget the Lyrics was good last night.


Welcome to Wrexham was very good last night. the season finale is next week.

a cold sunshine...

 it actually didn't feel too bad in the cold sunshine today. now, when the wind started blowing, you knew exactly how fucking cold it was today. good times.


the grocery shopping went well today. got everything that was on the list and managed to keep it under $200. i figured Kroger would be busy today since it is supposed to snow in the next 4 days. and i admit, i did get a few things in case it is snowing on my birthday. i usually will order a pizza, etc. i figured if it is bad out, we can just make that shit here at the house.


the Dayton Flyers won last night at home against Saint Louis, 70-65.




the New York Rangers won last night at home over Seattle, 5-2.




the season finale of Hard Knocks was good last night.



Name That Tune was pretty funny last night.

before i face the heat of hell

 it is supposed to be hot and fucking humid today, so i'm not exactly looking forward to this fresh slice of hell.


the Yankees lost last night to Seattle, 8-6. they will hopefully win the series this afternoon, but i won't be holding my breath.





after the game, i heard about the death of Vin Scully. that is a voice that still rings in my head from watching many baseball and football games in my youth. 






NXT was really good last night.

















Deadliest Catch was excellent last night.



What We Do in the Shadows was fucking hilarious last night.

still alive...

 so, the New Orleans Saints won yesterday at home against Carolina, 18-10. they actually scored a touchdown, their first since December 12th. the defense once again was great for the most part. the scenario to get in the playoffs is pretty easy next week. the Saints have to win at Atlanta and the 49ers have to lose to the Rams.






the New York Rangers won yesterday at home against Tampa Bay, 4-0. they play tonight at home against Edmonton.







Dexter: New Blood was excellent last night. the season finale is next week.

10 days to go

 so my doctor's appointment went pretty good yesterday. my A1C hadn't really changed. my numbers in my bloodwork were all good, except for the one liver number. when i explained that i was diagnosed with non alcoholic fatty liver disease and i experience no pain from it, the doc seemed cool with it. i go back on St. Patrick's Day, 2022.


The Voice went as i expected last night. my final 3 were the final 3 for the show. Girl Named Tom won.




NXT was excellent last night.

dos a cero

 so, i went into the USA vs. Mexico match last night with high hopes. after the first half, one where Mexico really carried the play, i was hoping the USA would come out on fire. thankfully, they did. they pressed Mexico for most of the second half. and then came on Captain America, Christian Pulisic. about 5 minutes after he came on, he scored. Weston McKinnie got the second goal, and once again, dos a cero was being chanted in the state of Ohio. the USA won the match, 2-0. they are now halfway through World Cup qualifying and they are in first place. the boys are quickly becoming men. 









Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.







AEW Rampage was good last night.


Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.






Back on the Record with Bob Costas was good last night.




here are your NBA highlights from last night:

and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live.


so, my afternoon clusterfuck goes like this. Ohio State plays at 3:30. the Dayton Flyers play at 6. and the New York Rangers play at 7. the doors for the Dayton game will be opening at 4:30. i'll be leaving the house around that time. so, i'm thinking at best, i'll get the see a little of the Ohio State game and the end of the Rangers game.


Ohio State plays at home today against Purdue. Ohio State should know, given the teams Purdue has upset this season, they need to play great today to win.



the Dayton Flyers host UMass Lowell tonight. i'm hoping Dayton shoots better tonight and make this one a laugher.


the New York Rangers play at Columbus tonight.


i should be on here tomorrow in the morning.


i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

a good afternoon nap...

 sometimes my back gets bad enough that i'll sit down in my massage chair, lean back, and just drift away. one of these days, i'm hoping that is how i die. today, it was how i took a long ass nap this afternoon. i must have slept for 2 hours or so. of course, when you only sleep 4 hours a night, it is bound to happen.


NXT was really good last night.

the New York Rangers play tonight at Buffalo. i'd love to see them actually play 60 minutes and win for a fucking change.


the mail was actually delivered this morning around 10 AM. i was shocked. then, i saw it was starting to snow and i realized why it was being worked so early. they are already so fucking far behind as it is.


f.y.i. if you happen to call me on my cell phone, please leave a fucking message. i'm blocking anyone who doesn't leave one as most of the damn calls i get are spam.


also, if you want my cell number, just ask.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

not a bad start to the new year...

 so, lets start where we left off...


Manchester United defeated Aston Villa yesterday, 2-1. that means they are level on points with Liverpool. looks like we might have a little tight race for the title this year.



Ohio State took Clemson out behind the barn last night, and got all of the revenge any of us ever needed. Ohio State defeated Clemson, 49-28. Ryan Day is the first Ohio State coach EVER to defeat Clemson. now, Ohio State will play Alabama for the national championship.









Smackdown and 205 Live were both really good last night.






enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be ROH.


the Dayton Flyers play today at home against George Mason. i really hope they play way better than they did against LaSalle.


tonight, the USA play Slovakia in the quarterfinals of the World Juniors. hopefully, the boys will get the win tonight and be healthy and ready for the medal rounds.


i saw where the Saints will be without all of their running backs tomorrow since Alvin Kamara tested positive for Covid. it should be very interesting to see what the Saints do, since they still have a shot at the number 1 seed in the NFC.


i should be on here tomorrow before that game starts in the late afternoon.


the weather has been a little crazy here. the snow never came, but the rain eventually warmed shit up into the 50's yesterday before yet another cold front came through. 


that's all for me kids.


i hope everyone has a great weekend.


until tomorrow...

they tried their hardest to piss me off...

 so, Manchester United started like shit today against the worst team in the Premier League. thankfully, it seemed like they finally woke the fuck up and scored the next 3 goals. of course, it got nervy at the end when it became 3-2, but United held on, against a team they should fucking destroy, for the victory. they are now up to 6th in the league and play Leeds this weekend.




NXT was really good last night.





AEW was really good last night as well.



the finale of The Masked Singer was good last night. i did correctly guess the winner of the show, The Sun.

i did some work on my baseball cards today and last night. i went through all the good ones and separated the rookies from the other cards. i'm really going to be pushing to sell the rookies when 2021 rolls around. 


i decided to put up my Christmas tree today. i figured the living room needed to be a touch livelier. 


i'm a little sad today. the guy who played Boba Fett passed away.



if i get bored tonight, i guess i will watch a little football. the Raiders and Chargers play tonight.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
