now that back pain is a constant...

 so, i took a shower last night. i was hoping the warm water would loosen up my back. nope. so, i spent three hours in the massage chair icing my back down and getting a little sleep. fun times.

mom didn't go to her physical therapy appointment today. with this high humidity, her Meniere's Disease is really fucking with her. on top of that, she is now getting all the side effects to Ozempic. not a fun house to be in at the moment.

the Yankees won yesterday at home against the Blue Jays, 4-3, in 10 innings. they are off tonight and start a series at home tomorrow night against the Angels.

Big Brother was good last night.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

i did watch some of the Olympics today as i was between naps.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. most likely, it will be after the USWNT plays Germany tomorrow at the Olympics.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i need to go figure out what i'm making for dinner.

until tomorrow kids...

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.

Ahora que el dolor de espalda es una constante

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...

hey, where did that hour go?

 honestly, i think it is really fucking stupid that we still change the time twice a fucking year. even the farmers i know think it is fucking stupid. now, as a piss poor sleeper, it doesn't really mess with me. i don't really give a shit about time anymore. 

the New York Rangers won last night 4-0 over the Blues. hopefully, Igor is getting hot in goal just in time for a playoff run.

AEW Collision was good last night.

Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

on the DVR tonight will be the series finale of Hightown, The Regime, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Last Week Tonight.

i doubt i will watch much of the Oscars tonight, although this is the first time in years i have actually seen some of the movies nominated.

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

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

until then kids...

fight the power.

just like the old days

i needed to take mom to the bank before her doctor's appointment today. of course, the bank is in a different county, so it was going to be interesting. we got to the bank in plenty of time but it was like no one in the place had seen a check that had two numbers to the left of a comma before. it took way longer than it should have in there. i knew my only hope to get mom to her doctor's appointment on time was to take the highway. i hated doing that because of all the fucking construction around here. thankfully, i'm a great driver under pressure. and thankfully, the winds weren't crazy enough to fuck with the SUV when i was going over 80 mph. i got mom to her 2:30 appointment on time. thankfully, this doctor has his shit together and we were in and out in about 15 minutes. after that, it was off to the sports bar.

of course, the sports bar we went to didn't have the Manchester United game on. it's probably a good thing as i turned on the game at home right after United cut the lead to 2-1. Smalling scored the first goal. Lukaku tied the game at 2-2. and then, with an absolute beauty, Matic scored the game winner in the 91st minute for the 3-2 victory. that felt like the old days a bit. that's a big win before they play those cunts from Liverpool on the weekend.

i did do some poetry work this morning after my shower. i have good idea where my next 24 poems are going. that should happen in the next few days.

Our Cartoon President was fucking hilarious last night.

Homeland was excellent last night.

The Chi was great last night.

Here and Now was really good last night.

the season finale of Divorce was much better than i was expecting.

the season finale of Crashing was excellent as well.

Last Week Tonight was fucking great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and The Voice. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

i believe there is supposed to be some rain or a wintry mix moving in overnight. oh great. well, i didn't sleep worth a shit last night (thanks to a phone at 3 in the morning), might as well make it 2 for 2.

i didn't get to the phone in time as i had just fallen asleep. it felt like the phone was ringing in a dream. no message left and i checked the caller i.d. i know who it was, but i haven't heard back from her yet either. i figure it might have been a butt dial or it could have been the end of the world. not sure yet.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime in the afternoon.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

sleep, an old friend

i actually managed something close to 5 hours of sleep last night. of course, i have to sleep in my chair instead of the bed. and of course, it wasn't 5 hours straight, but a hour or two here and there. honestly, i was just happy i was able to sleep more than 10 minutes without fucking feeling snot running down into my throat. i have turned to my old friend Sudafed to see if it can break this damn thing.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. the match between Asuka and Sasha Banks was an instant classic. probably the only thing i didn't like about the show was John Cena beating Finn Balor in the main event. that made no fucking sense to me.

May It Last: A Portrait of the Avett Brothers was pretty good last night. i had heard of the band before but never really got into their music until the last few years. i wish it would have dug a little deeper into some of the darker songs, especially since that is where i tend to write from; pain, heartbreak, devastation, remorse and regret.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, Baskets and Hate Thy Neighbor. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays.

i need to round up the trash here and get all that out to the curb. i think most of it is just fucking tissues filled with snot. damn good thing i bought some on my last trip to the grocery store.

that's all for me kids. i need to get going and get a nice long, hot shower in sometime before the shows come on tonight.

enjoy that visual.

no rest for the wicked...

i was hoping the NyQuil was going to help me sleep. sadly, all it really did was increase the amount of drainage and give me a nice buzzed feeling as i was taking a shit at 4 in the morning. nothing like coughing loud enough to wake your mother up 3 rooms away. i think i have got 8 hours sleep in the last 3 days. not exactly the right recipe to beat a cold. good times. and just when i was getting some sleep this morning, i had a fucking cramp in my left leg wake me up.

i actually let mom drive today to the local drugstore. i was worried but she's a fucking adult. if i didn't feel like she was up to it, i would have played the role of the asshole son. of course, she was gone longer than i thought she was going to. and when the phone rang, i figured it was going to be the police to tell me about an accident. thankfully, it wasn't. she went to the grocery store next to the drugstore to get a few things. i was happy she was able to do that today as i was going to do it, but i feel fucking miserable today.

USA men's soccer team played last night against Bosnia & Herzegovina. the game was a 0-0 draw. glad to see i didn't miss anything.

the Royal Rumble last night was excellent. both Rumble matches were good. there was just enough surprises i thought in both matches, although i would have loved to see a few more women from NXT get in that match. but, to see Trish and Lita wrestle again was pretty fucking cool. and i totally didn't expect Rey Mysterio in the men's match. i loved that they had Asuka and Shinsuke Nakamura win the Rumble matches. i certainly wasn't expecting Nakamura to win, that's for sure. especially when he had to eliminate Cena and Roman Reigns to get the job done. Ronda Rousey showing up at the end of the show was a bit of a clusterfuck, but i guess she's signed a full time multi-year contract with WWE. it will be interesting to see how they use her on the road to WrestleMania. all in all, i thought the show was worth my time, and given how sick i am, that's saying something.

the season finale of Shameless was really good last night.

The Chi was excellent last night. the ending was damn near perfect.

Divorce was good last night.

Crashing was really good last night. it was great to see Bill Burr again.

i didn't watch much of the Grammy Awards last night. from everything i have heard and the clips i've seen on YouTube, it's probably a good thing i didn't see it. i love Bruno Mars but there's no fucking way in the world that album was better than Kendrick Lamar's album. no fucking way at all.

i did watch a little of the NHL All-Star game yesterday.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and May It Last: A Portrait Of The Avett Brothers. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

mom's already cancelled all her appointments this week, so basically i'm hoping i can beat this cold this week without having to make a trip to the doctor.

i guess i should actually go get the damn mail before it's completely dark here.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.
