it never gets boring...

 so, i was getting ready to write this about a hour ago. that was until i heard mom scream from her room. i went in and turned on the light and asked what was wrong? she started complaining about all the people in her room, etc. i told her she is once again hallucinating and thinking her dreams are reality. i explain to her all the time this is the byproduct of not doing any drugs while growing up in the 60's. 


here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:






the Yankees won last night at home to sweep the Royals, 4-3. they start a series tonight at Tampa.





AEW Dynamite was actually pretty good last night.







the season finale of Abbott Elementary was hilarious.


The Masked Singer was crazy as usual last night.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage and AEW Collision.


Manchester United plays today at home against Lyon in the Europa League. the score is 2-2 on aggregate. if United wins today they will advance. 





the New York Rangers finish their disappointing season tonight at home against Tampa Bay. the only reason to watch tonight is for Sam Rosen.


i did watch some of the NBA playoffs last night.



i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before mom has her physical therapy in the afternoon.


that's all for me kids...


until tomorrow...

woke up to the single digits...

 mom has all these plants in the kitchen. she woke up last night after 1 hour of sleep to see how they were and get some heat on out there. i was still up since she has the tendency to sleep walk sometimes. i told her wouldn't it make more sense to just turn the furnace up. thankfully, that logic made sense to her and she went back to sleep. one thing i can say with certainty, there will be no plants in this house once she dies.


i wrote 2 poems last night. anytime i get close to my birthday, the poems start to flow. misery and death never seem to be that far away.


the New York Rangers lost at Montreal last night, 5-4 in OT.




the conference championship games are set in the NFL. the Bills beat the Ravens last night, 27-25. Buffalo will play at the Chiefs for the AFC championship. the Eagles beat the Rams yesterday, 28-22. the Eagles will host the Commanders for the NFC championship.





The Agency was excellent last night. next week is the season finale.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game tonight for the national championship. after that, i'll probably watch some of Monday Night Raw on Netflix.


i do plan on watching some NBA games today.


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


i know i will be doing some writing today and tomorrow and probably send out some poems as well.


i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i wasn't using that hour anyway...

 my sleep has been shitty since i was in high school. i'm pretty sure i have gone well over 30 years of being sleep deprived. so, springing ahead or falling back with the clocks really doesn't do much for me. i got just about 4 hours of sleep last night. par for the course.


Ohio State won at Penn State yesterday, 20-13. considering they were down 10-0 in the first quarter, i'm really happy they won.




WWE Crown Jewel was very good yesterday.

one of those days...

 so, i was in the waiting room of where mom has physical therapy (completely forgot she had an appointment today) and felt like i had to fart. and then the feeling came over me that if i tried to let this out quietly, it wasn't going to be silent or a fart at all. so, i held it. wrote a poem about something else to take my mind off of it. mom still had 20 minutes left in her appointment. she got out on time and i decided to take the highway home, as i figured that would be faster. thankfully, it was. what i unleashed as soon as i started to sit down on the toilet was something out of a horror movie. i'm not sure if this was stress or my inner child wanting attention. but good lord, that was one of those shits that takes a few years off of your life.


and speaking of shitty, i did watch a little of the USMNT take on Saudi Arabia today. if these two warm-up games were supposed to give us a preview of what is to come for the World Cup, i suggest that USA Soccer start looking for a new head coach immediately. it was bad enough that they lost to Japan, 2-0. but, they didn't have their best player, so ok. well, they had that player today (Christian Pulisic) and the match against Saudi Arabia finished 0-0. so, i guess they don't plan on actually scoring at the World Cup. not sure how you advance out of the group stage by doing that. what i did see today actually put me to sleep.






the Yankees lost last night in Toronto, 3-2 in 10 innings. Judge is still stuck at 60 HR. i think he is still leading the triple crown race. hopefully, they will win tonight, Judge will homer a couple of times and they will celebrate finally clinching the division.





i didn't watch much of the Cowboys vs. Giants last night. the Cowboys won, 23-16.




The Voice was very good last night.






Monday Night Raw was excellent last night.






enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, NXT and the season finale of Deadliest Catch.


i'm trying to get my laundry done on top of everything else today. it makes me think of the line my mother used to say when i was younger... she was busier than 9 cats trying to cover up shit in a windstorm.


i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.


after i get the laundry done, i'll pick up the trash tonight. hopefully, i'll get all that done before all the shows start tonight. (not likely)


of course, it is supposed to rain tomorrow. there is always some kind of weather other than nice on a fucking day i need to do something. it never fails.


so here is the conundrum i am having with mom. she is still in the self-sabotaging stage of life and i'm not sure how to break her of that, mostly because i'm not fully escaped from that shit either. plus, i basically can't get to sleep before 4 AM because she has her nightmare gasp or scream in the 3 o'clock hour nearly every damn night now. and 9 times out of 10, it is something that she believes is real in her bed and there is nothing there. so, any advice any of you have that have dealt with an older parent or loved one would be greatly appreciated.


to all my friends and fans in Florida, please stay safe.



got the second load in the washer, so that's all for me kids.


until tomorrow...


fight the power.


fuck racism.

fuck war.


fuck the police.

less humid, thankfully...

 you could really tell a difference this morning with the humidity. it is always nice to not start sweating as soon as you open the door. 


so, i'm sure some of you saw i sent some poems out last night. i actually wrote 3 poems last night before i did that. for some reason the song Slow an' Easy by Whitesnake popped into my head last night. i have vivid memories of that song playing at a high school party i was at. the party was at a state park. so, that memory got the ball rolling and pretty soon, i had 3 poems written. 


the Yankees came from behind last night and defeated Tampa, 5-4. they start a series at home tonight against the Astros.






Colorado defeated the Lightning last night, 3-2 in OT. i love that Tampa is whining about Colorado having too many men on the ice when the winning goal was scored. hockey karma is a bitch. hopefully, Colorado will win Game 5 tomorrow night and win the Stanley Cup.


AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.




enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW, The Old Man and Desus & Mero. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on Peacock.


the NBA Draft is tonight. i'm sure i will watch some of that.


mom is still swollen from one of her falls nearly a month ago. and since she can't lay on her stomach anywhere here and not feel nauseous... she said she is going to call physical therapy today and cancel. i will probably have to run out to Rite Aid today and get her a new heating pad. 


i will probably be on here in the afternoon tomorrow.


until then kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

it was fun while it lasted...

 so, the New York Rangers lost at Tampa last night, 2-1. the Lightning will play Colorado looking for their 3rd straight Stanley Cup. i wasn't happy that the Rangers coach broke up the kid line last night. but, the true kick in the nuts was when the Rangers tied the game at 1, the Lightning scored 21 seconds later to make it 2-1. i looked at my mother and just said i might as well get ready to shave off the playoff beard. all in all, i believe what many of the experts believe, this Rangers team was a few years ahead of schedule. i really think this loss will be the catalyst to go even farther next time. i'm just hoping it doesn't take another 7 years or so for them to get back to this. but, me being me, i will be haunted by the Game 3 collapse more than anything. they were one solid period of hockey from going up 3-0 in the series and having one foot in the Stanley Cup final. the fan in me wants Colorado to absolutely destroy Tampa. my brain believes if Colorado is willing to pay the price to win, it will be in 6 or 7 games. 








the New York Yankees hit 6 solo home runs last night and defeated the Cubs, 8-0. they will go for the sweep this afternoon.





i did watch the Belmont Stakes yesterday.



at some point today, i am hoping to go get my hair cut. 


enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be VICE, The Man Who Fell To Earth, the season finale of Barry, the series finale of The Baby, Last Week Tonight and Gaslit.


i'm sure i'll probably watch some soccer today as well as baseball.


and i think i have some laundry to do for my mother. i'm hoping she doesn't try to do that on her own while i'm out getting a hair cut.


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


until tomorrow...


fight the power.

MUST win game tonight...

 the New York Rangers play Game 5 tonight against Tampa Bay at MSG. i'm really hoping the Rangers play their best game of the series tonight and win. that win would put them one more victory away from the Stanley Cup final.




AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.






mom didn't go to physical therapy today. since her birthday is a week away, i believe her anxiety is really fucking with her. i believe my fascination with death and when someone dies really close to their birthday (the circle being complete and natural), it has engulfed her thoughts. i said to her last night, i don't want you to wake up with disappointment when i tell you good morning the day after your birthday.


the New York Yankees lost last night to the Twins, 8-1. hopefully, they will start a new winning streak tonight.




enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and Desus & Mero. i watched NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock. it was really good.







here are your highlights from Game 3 of the NBA Finals last night:








i just put my last load of laundry in the dryer, so today has been pretty productive. thankfully, the humidity was gone from the storms last night. so, i opened up the house and let the cool breeze come in. i believe they said Ohio had 4 tornadoes last night. most of the damage was north of where i live.



i got my new business cards today from Vistaprint. they got here early, so that made me pretty happy.


i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm guessing early afternoon most likely.
