the wind is fucking howling today. at least the newspaper wasn't all over the street this time.
Ohio State defeated Penn State last night, 38-25. honestly, the game never felt as close as the score would indicate.
a delightful trip into the dark mind of an evil genius or simply the musings of an asshole

my left knee has been killing me all day long. the joys of arthritis. fuck.
the New Orleans Saints defeated Carolina yesterday, 27-24. i thought the offense did pretty well given the number of wide receivers that are injured. the defense did just enough to win.
i'm still working on a huge mug of coffee this morning. i didn't get to sleep until 5 this morning. ah, the joys of a poet's life on the weekend. where watching porn is actually "research" and sleep is an option that no one ever fucking needs. i guess Wild Turkey had more of a say in the night than i even thought.
Manchester United played a lifeless 0-0 draw yesterday against Chelsea. the optimist in me could say well, at least they didn't lose at home or the defense played good enough for a clean sheet finally. but, i'm not a fucking optimist.
i didn't get to bed last night until 4:30 this morning. so, i'm going on around 4 hours of sleep and a huge cup of coffee at the moment. good times.
Manchester United started off horribly yesterday. thankfully, they didn't finish that way. United won 4-1 over Newcastle. i'm really hoping that is the start of a great string of games for them.
i did watch a ton of boxing last night, especially the Lopez vs. Lomachenko fight. i thought Lopez won the fight, but not by the huge margin the judges thought he did. Lomachenko finally paid for starting off as slow as he does.
first off, a little poetry news. i sent off 8 poems today; 3 to The Beatnik Cowboy and 5 to Synchronized Chaos (already accepted for publication). when i get the verdict on the poems, i will pass them along.
my sister did come down yesterday. she got me $25 of baseball and football cards. i paid her for the cards and then opened them. the first box i did was the football cards. there was an autographed card in the box, which is going for around $30 (Greg Ward Jr. rookie autographed card). i showed that to my sister and she of course couldn't give two shits. all in all, for my $25 i think i got around $75 worth of cards. i did get my order from Topps.com yesterday as well. i ordered another box of 2020 Topps Big League Baseball. i got the Aaron Judge figurine i was hoping for this time. i got a ton of good cards between that box and the 2020 Topps Heritage box i got. that $45 spent got me around $200 worth of cards. i'm still in the process of getting everything in order. it's going slow, but i'm getting there.
i watched two college football games yesterday. both were crazy as fuck. Oklahoma defeated Texas 53-45 in 4OT and Alabama defeated Ole Miss 63-48. when the fuck did the SEC become the Big 12?
ROH was really good last night.
Austin City Limits was supposed to be the Yola episode last night. instead, it was the H.E.R. episode that i have already recorded.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.
enjoy some music:
i swear anymore, these days just bleed into each other like trying to paint while doing acid. yesterday feels like 10 days ago. so much to get to, so on we go...
Manchester United shit the bed yesterday and lost to Tottenham, 6-1. i turned the game off when it was 3-1. i couldn't stomach it anymore. today is the last day of the transfer market. to say i'm a tad bit disappointed with what United has done in this window is a understatement. of course, if there is still gas left in the tank for Cavani, maybe he can give the team a lift. oh well.
so i went to bed last night after i read that a player on the New Orleans Saints had tested positive for COVID-19. i woke up this morning to the news that it was actually a false positive test and the game was still on for today. ah, 2020, still fucking crazy...
Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.
ROH was very good last night.
Austin City Limits was the very best of John Prine last night. it was excellent.
i did watch some college football last night. also, a little boxing and some Mexican soccer.
the chili was really good last night. i think today is supposed to be nothing but rain, so i'm hoping the alcohol will be flowing.
