so, i finally got a hold of someone at Humana to find out about my Medicaid cards. they said the cards were mailed out on March 21st. it will take 7 to 8 days to arrive. well, they weren't in the mail today, so i'm assuming they will be in the mail tomorrow. and then i will have to cancel my Anthem insurance (there's $600 saved) and then go to Kroger to get my new insurance into the system and pick up the pills that are ready there. i found out today that my doctors do take the new insurance, so i should be good to go on my appointment on April Fools Day. i will have to make an appointment to get the blood work done on Monday. now, if the cards aren't in the mail tomorrow, i will blow my lid, be pissed beyond belief and realize the whole system will drive me to killing myself. good times.
i did watch the Yankees game yesterday. they won over the Brewers, 4-2. hopefully, this will be a good season. Austin Wells became the first catcher and first Yankee EVER to hit a lead off home run on opening day.
i did watch a good portion of the college basketball games last night. i went 4-0.
mom got sick yesterday, so she didn't go to the podiatrist. i'm not sure she's feeling much better today. it did warm up today, so we're airing out the house for a few hours. this is what i like to call trapping all the hot air in so i can't sleep worth a shit but she will be nice and warm.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher.
i will watch some college basketball tonight as well.
the New York Rangers play tonight at Anaheim.
i did finally see A Complete Unknown today. i noticed it was on HULU so i watched it this afternoon. it was good.
i will most likely be on here in the morning, unless the Medicaid cards show up in the mail early tomorrow. then, i will be on here after that chaos is over.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
until tomorrow kids...

right as i was getting ready to go to bed last night, i could hear my mother crying. i went into her room and asked what was wrong? she said she was crying because she was thinking about when she dies how i will be alone here. i chuckled and asked why are you worrying about that? she believes she has failed if i am somehow alone. that baffled me. of course, i am not a parent, nor have i ever wanted to be one. but, i do try to understand where my mother is coming from with these things. so, we had a 30 minute discussion about a wide range of topics. she went to sleep and i of course was now in my head and slept like shit. the only thing i can surmise is the holidays are quickly approaching and there is always time for dysfunction.
the New York Rangers lost last night in Calgary, 3-2. hard to win when you get outshot 49-29.

i am still buzzing from the Ohio State game last night. Ohio State defeated Notre Dame 17-14 on a TD with 1 second left in the game. Ryan Day had me all fired up in the postgame. you could tell just how pissed he was. and honestly, i don't blame him at all. how Notre Dame only had 10 guys on the field for the last two plays is beyond me. and their coach, who i love, his explanation doesn't make any sense. all in all, an instant classic.
i did watch a ton of college football yesterday:

i live about 4 minutes away from the Rite Aid in town. i got a text message last night that one of my prescriptions was ready. i went there this afternoon. it took me 4 minutes to drive there. i then stood in line for 40 minutes, listening to people bitch about the store. i finally got up to the window and got my pills. and the drive home took me all of 4 minutes. that pretty much sums up my afternoon.
the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Boston, 5-2. i think the Rangers played pretty good but ran out of gas in the third period.

Manchester United won yesterday at Real Sociedad, 1-0. they had plenty of time to get that second goal so they would win the group in the Europa League, but they never did. and Sociedad parked the bus in the second half and made damn sure United wasn't going to score. United will find out on Monday who they will play in February for the Europa League playoffs. my gut tells me they are going to face Barcelona.
the New York Knicks play tonight on the road at the 76ers. hopefully, they will find a way to win.
i should be on here tomorrow in the morning. my Saturday is going to be extremely fucking busy. between wrestling, college football, the MLS Cup final, etc, etc...
i hope everyone has a great weekend. hopefully, this will be the last weekend we ever have to change the time on our clocks.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
mom had down the wrong time for her physical therapy appointment today. now that i know it is later in the afternoon, i figured i would get the blog done now.

so, i got in a really good nap this afternoon. get enough ice on the back and i'm out with a snap of the fingers. mom and i decided to get our absentee ballots done today. when i went to put the stamps on the envelopes, that was when i realized we only had 1 stamp let. well shit, time to make a trip to the post office. so, i pull up there and park on the street behind another SUV. that driver was coming out of the post office and sure enough, it was the cousin that molested me as a child. that is always the subtle reminder that no matter what good i do in the world, how nice i am to other people, how giving of my time i am, none of it fucking matters as the universe will always hate me.
i guess Kroger can't get the 2% eyedrops that mom needs in anymore. so, i get to take the 5% ones back, i have no clue when, and get the money back for them. i guess mom found the 2% ones on Amazon.com. of course, i guess that is where all of us will be getting our pills soon.
the Yankees lost last night, 3-0, to Toronto. hard to win when you only get 4 hits. hopefully, they will do better tonight.

i have a full day of shit tomorrow. i have to have the Highlander to the dealership by 9:30 in the morning. i'm hoping the check engine light is nothing major. if all goes well, i will then have all the grocery shopping to do. and i will probably have to get gas at some point tomorrow. and try to do all of this while dealing with thunderstorms all day long. joy.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
so, i had this feeling in the back of my head that my healthcare bullshit would only get more fucking crazy today. i was right. i believe what is going on is Anthem never cancelled my old policy that was supposed to expire on Dec. 31, 2021. that is why my new insurance, that is nearly $1,000 cheaper than my old policy, isn't showing up when it should be as it started Jan. 1, 2022. so, i had requested Anthem to call me between 3 and 3:30 today so i could get all this shit figured out. mind you, i also talked to Rite-Aid and asked them to transfer my prescriptions from Kroger to the Rite Aid in the town i live in. of course, that never happened. neither did the fucking call from Anthem. so, i went back to Kroger and got in line to get my fucking pills, mostly because i would run out of these starting tomorrow. i took a GoodRx card with me, hoping it would lower the prices. the lady asked me if i had insurance and i explained to her what was going on and told her i wanted to use the GoodRx card because i need these pills. she understood and put the card into the system. that brought the prices down from $75 to less than $35. that works for me. i paid for them and thanked the lady very much. i still need to figure out the chaos going on with Anthem, but at least i have one less fucking thing to be stressed out about.
it was colder than fuck today. i believe the wind chill definitely got under 0 last night.
so, i was saddened to see that Sidney Poitier died today. one of my favorite humans to ever walk the face of the earth.
the New York Rangers lost at Vegas last night, 5-1. i should have known it was coming when their starting goalie got placed on the COVID list right before the start of the game.

i do believe we're finally going to take down the Christmas decorations this weekend.
the scab finally came off on my middle finger today. i have a little hole on the right side of my middle finger. as much as i use that fucker in this world, i understand.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. i think it is supposed to be a little warmer this weekend, but rainy. so yeah, i'll be pissy. what else is new?

i woke up this morning and my mind went immediately to the Manchester United game. i knew just how important it would be for everyone involved to get what was needed today to be in the Champions League next season. thankfully, United was able to get a result while playing like relative shit today. they won 2-0. i honestly thought for most of the game they were playing for a draw. but, those 3 points have them finishing the season in 3rd. Chelsea is in 4th. Leicester finishes 5th. United was 14 points behind back in January, so i am really pleased with finishing 3rd. now, the only games left for United this season are in the Europa League. i wouldn't mind if they won the damn thing again and use that momentum to roll into the next season, which starts basically in 7 damn weeks.
the New York Yankees played like shit last night and lost 9-2. they started off today behind 2-0 and i remembered how much i hate losing. thankfully, the Yankees made a comeback and then held on for a 3-2 victory today. they took 2 out of 3 from the defending world champs. i'll take it. they start a series in Philadelphia tomorrow night.
ROH was pretty good last night.
part of my latest order from Amazon.com showed up yesterday. i got some more cards in protective sleeves now. i need more though of the hard plastic ones. i have 300 soft ones coming soon. i'm afraid that might not be enough either. plus, i found some more cards from the 1980's from Reds games i went to. and one of those cards is a Barry Larkin rookie card. so yeah, i was pretty pleased when i found that one.

you know how damn long it's been since i have had 2 drinks in one evening. holy fuck, i'm looking forward to tonight.
i did watch some of the MLS games last night. both games finished 1-0. i think the knockout portion of this tournament is going to be very interesting to watch. i might watch some of the matches tonight.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday is going even better.

the Dayton Flyers have their senior night tonight against George Washington. Dayton is favored by 20 1/2 points. i'd love to see them win by 40 tonight. and i do hope Ryan Mikesell and Trey Landers go out with big games. if Dayton wins tonight, they will finish the A10 18-0. they will be a school record 29-2 on the season. they will be the #1 seed of the A10 tournament. i did watch College GameDay this morning on television. if i lived closer, i probably would have tried to get on campus to see it in person. i am so damn pumped for tonight.
Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was really good last night.
High Maintenance was great last night.
The Trade is one of those shows everyone in this country should be forced to watch.

i should be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays Manchester City. i know i want to get the blog done before that game starts, just in case the results aren't too my liking.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday. don't bother to call for bail money, i won't be home.

these are the days where misery seems to bleed into every day and the endless loop is like a hamster on a wheel. i'm more likely to fall off than ever end the chase.

the sun is setting on my horizon. oblivion isn't far behind...
i did watch plenty of the NBA All-Star events last night. i really can't believe they robbed Aaron Gordon again in the dunk contest.

the Dayton Flyers won yesterday at UMass, 71-63. you could tell right from the start that Dayton wasn't taking the game as seriously as they needed to. thankfully, their talent is good enough to overcome questionable coaching and as usual with the A10, god fucking awful officiating. Dayton plays Tuesday night at VCU.
the New York Rangers play today at home against the Boston Bruins. i would be very surprised if the Rangers won today, but would love to see them upset the best team in the NHL.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hope your Sunday is even better.
