as a poet that likes to network and get my poetry out there the old fashioned way, word of mouth, actually engaging with humans, i have seen all sides of the ugliness of humanity. what really pisses me off is when someone starts off in a genuine way and then within 3 fucking days, is trying to scam you. part of that makes me laugh because all i have to my name is about $15,000 worth of debt. but still, why pieces of shit are still trying these fucking scams today is just mind blowing to me. of course, it is the holidays, why wouldn't someone be trying to steal pennies from me.
the grocery store went well today. between gas, prescriptions and groceries, i spent close to $400. fuck me.
i did watch team USA yesterday at the World Juniors. they defeated Germany, 10-4.
thank god i only watched about 2 minutes of the NFL game last night. Seattle beat Chicago, 6-3. of course, the spread was 4.
i did watch Nate Bargatze's new special on Netflix last night. that was fucking hilarious.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, Inside the NFL and the final episode of AEW Rampage. i'll watch the final episode of NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.
i believe we are having leftovers tonight. we had pizza last night, mostly because mom didn't want Christmas dinner two nights in a row. i can understand that.
i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. last weekend of 2024.
until tomorrow kids...

it seems my life basically runs in two different shifts. morning and late at night. whatever the fuck happens between those times, i'm not really sure of anymore. it seems like auto-pilot is running that show. i read something a few months ago how nocturnal people should lean into that life. so, taking a shower at 4 in the morning after getting the Christmas cards, dishes and email all done seems natural.
the New York Rangers lost last night to a shitty Chicago Blackhawks team, 2-1.
i did catch some of the Bengals 27-20 victory over the Cowboys last night.
The Real Full Monty was very good last night.
The Voice was excellent last night. i'm hoping one of my 3 finalists win tonight.

Monday Night Raw was good last night.

i have two more Christmas cards to get out. i will hopefully do that tomorrow. have to make sure i have the right envelopes. fun times.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.
and i guess it is going to snow tomorrow as well. fuck me.
well, the Yankees just signed Max Fried. you can never have enough pitching, that's for certain.

so, before i get to another Dayton Flyers heartbreaking loss, i took mom to her doctor's appointment today. they took out one stitch from her eye surgery. everything is going exactly how the doctor hoped, so all are happy. the drive home was a bit crazy as it was raining. i had to go to the local grocery store again. mom forgot to put a few things on the list yesterday. thankfully, i was able to find everything and get in and out pretty quickly. eventually, this rain is supposed to change over to snow. joy.
the Dayton Flyers lost last night to #5 Iowa State, 89-84. they play #2 UCONN tonight at midnight. if they lose that game, they would have gone 0-3 in Maui.
NXT was excellent last night.
The Voice was good last night. next week starts the live shows.
St. Denis Medical was very funny last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite and Inside the NFL.
the New York Rangers play at Carolina tonight. i really hope they find a way to win tonight.
i will probably watch the Dayton game at midnight, although i know i need some fucking sleep.
i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before all the NFL games get started.
i will definitely be on here before Manchester United plays in the Europa League tomorrow.
if you are traveling for Thanksgiving, please be safe and have some patience.
i need to get started on dinner, so that's all for me today kids...

might as well get the negative out of the way first. the Dayton Flyers didn't learn a damn thing from their first game. yesterday against SMU, they had way too many damn turnovers and hardly did any of the little things correct. they lost 66-64 on a buzzer beater. they deserved to lose. the bench was non-existent once again. until that problem is solved, every game this season is going to be closer than it probably should be. they next play on Tuesday at home against Northern Kentucky. hopefully, they will win.
Manchester United went down 1-0 yesterday in the first half against West Ham. once again, they flipped the switch at halftime (mostly because Bruno and Rashford came on) and caught fire. they scored 3 goals in the second half (Pogba, Greenwood, Rashford) and won 3-1. they now are just two points from the top of the league and are 4th in the table. next up will be a game in Germany where they need to get a result to advance in the Champions League.
Ohio State was missing their head coach, 23 players and some other coaches yesterday against Michigan State. if you didn't know that before the game started, you never would have known with the way they played. they destroyed Michigan State, 52-12. next up will be a game against that shit school from the north.
ROH was very good last night.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.
Austin City Limits last night was the episode i had accidently deleted with Sharon Van Etten and Lucy Dacus.
Bluegrass Underground had The Devil Makes Three on last night. i have always really liked that band.
my baseball and football cards from Repacked Wax did show up yesterday. it was pretty cool seeing football cards from before i was born. but, the kicker to everything was the 1989 Fleer Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card i put from the baseball packs. HOLY SHIT!!!!!! that card alone is worth more than what i paid for all 10 packs. that almost made up for me being pissed that Dayton lost.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be WWE Tribute to the Troops, Euphoria, the finale of Murder on Middle Beach, Power Book II: Ghost, Shameless, Your Honor and two episodes of Moonbase 8. i'll be watching NXT War Games for most of the night on WWE Network.
the New Orleans Saints play this afternoon at Atlanta. if the Saints win, they will clinch a spot in the playoffs. hopefully, the Saints will be able to complete the sweep of the Falcons today and win their 9th game in a row.
i will probably watch a little of the Columbus Crew in the Eastern Conference finals in MLS today.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.

it's never a good thing. and it's not often a dream, more of a recollection of a nightmare. and when i start my day off like this, i know a shit storm isn't far behind.
i did do a little poetry work today. i should have a nice batch of submissions tomorrow.
here is your video for this day of National Poetry Month:
so i found out my nurse's visit on Thursday has been canceled. of course, i only found out because i asked. i was supposed to get my second Hep A vaccine shot that day. so, now i'm wondering where that leaves me in that process. joy.
that's all for me kids. i should be on here tomorrow after i get all the poems sent out.
until tomorrow. stay healthy...

i finally got to see Once Upon A Time.. In Hollywood this afternoon. i enjoyed it. it dragged in a few spots, but most of the movie was really good.
Monday Night Raw was good last night. hard to fucking believe WrestleMania is this weekend.
Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.
The Voice was really good last night.
The Plot Against America was excellent last night.

on the DVR tonight will be WWE Backstage, Dark Side of the Ring and The Scheme.
i still have trash to pick up here and next door, so that's all for me today kids.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm hoping i will have a trip to the bank tomorrow to deposit a check, but i'm not counting on it. i do need to go to the drugstore tomorrow to see if i can find some toilet paper. that will be fun.
stay healthy everyone...

when i hear rain on the metal roof of the house when i'm falling asleep, i know i'm going to at least get a few hours. when i hear it when i first wake up in the morning, i know a day of misery is ahead of me. but, bring on the pain as the crops are desperate for a good drink. so far, it's been a slow drizzle with a little thunder. as long as it doesn't get crazy, this is exactly what the crops need today.
the Yankees fell behind last night, took the lead, and then, yes, you guessed it, pissed away another game against Houston, 5-2. this team plays down to its competition and has paid for it all season long. they play early this afternoon. hopefully the game puts me to sleep or the satellite feed goes out.
Big Brother was pretty good last night. sadly, it looks like Zach is going to get the boot tonight. but, hopefully in the latest twist, he comes back into the house right after eviction. if not, all i hope is that somehow that fucking sociopath Frankie doesn't win.
Brew Dogs was really good last night. they made a beer in New Orleans. i really need to get to that town at some point in my life. although, chances are, i won't leave.
The Bridge was spectacular last night. this season isn't as good as the first one was but it is as close as you can get to being as good. i love the small world feel as the characters are getting closer and closer to being intertwined. i can't wait for next week.
also tonight, i'll be watching Married and You're The Worst on FX.
the New York Rangers surprised me yesterday by winning the Kevin Hayes sweepstakes. he should fit in quite nicely with how AV wants the guys to play.
i figure i might flip over to FXX sometime in the next 12 days for The Simpsons marathon. that's one of the myriad of shows that i never really got into over my 38 years on earth.
that's all for today kids. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

i woke up this morning feeling like shit. not sick, but full of pain. and not the kind of pain that means a rush to the hospital. more like the kind of pain that goes with oncoming cold fronts and my arthritis probably getting worse. good times. so, i knew pretty damn early i wasn't going to be mowing the grass feeling like that. but, i'm 2 weeks behind on my laundry and the toilets need cleaned. so you can imagine what my afternoon has been.
my last load of laundry is in the dryer and as soon as i get this blog done i get to do some dishes. i figure what i'm really doing is keeping my mind off of the Rangers second round playoff game tonight against the Penguins. not sure if my back appreciates my brain seeking a little vacation.
the New York Yankees lost last night 4-2. the pitching, other than Tanaka, has been spotty to say the least and the offense has gone cold for the last few games. they play against Tampa tonight. i doubt i watch much of it given the Rangers game. maybe during intermissions.
i did enjoy the Star Wars episode of The Big Bang Theory last night. that did make me laugh pretty good. most of the rest of the night was spent watching hockey and basketball. that's probably what tonight will be as well.
mom went back to work today. not sure how she's doing as she hasn't called. i figure most of the day was spent showing people the scar. i'm hoping she has had a pretty good day. i figure if i can get the dishes done before she gets home, i will have at least done my part.
with that being said, that's all for me today folks. hope everyone has a great weekend in store. mine will be filled with some sports and not much sleep. i'm hoping to have a writing session at some point this weekend, maybe get a few good poems out of it.
be well. be creative. be sure to treat your inner geek on May 4th. and then be sure to treat that geek to some pussy afterwards. or dick, i know there are some women and gay men that enjoy Star Wars as well.
i'll be on here tomorrow sometime in the late afternoon. hopefully after a few victory beers.
peace and chicken grease.
