before i get to a great Rangers victory yesterday and the Yankees losing a doubleheader, a little update on life...
i really feel bad for my mother today. she did what a certain someone wanted to be done and then gets bitched out today for having done it. i guess a certain someone doesn't remember the lectures on choices and consequences. oh well.
the New York Rangers played really good yesterday in spurts. but mostly, Igor Shesterkin stood on his fucking head, saving 43 of 44 shots. the Rangers defeated Carolina, 3-1. Carolina got a little chippy at the end and i love that the Rangers coach said in the postgame, if they want to play dirty, we have plenty of guys that can match that as well. so, Game 4 tomorrow night should be a feisty one.
here are your highlights from the rest of the NHL playoffs yesterday:
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs yesterday:
the New York Yankees lost Game 1 yesterday to the White Sox, 3-1. they lost Game 2 of the doubleheader, 5-0. oh well. they start a series tonight at home against Baltimore.
Manchester United lost yesterday at Crystal Palace, 1-0. but, Brighton saved their asses by beating West Ham, so United will play in the Europa League next season. today, they introduced the new manager. i like the fact he seems to be direct, has a vision, knows what kind of players he wants, etc. i just hope the fucking board and owners allow him to get what he wants.
Gaslit was very good last night.
Barry was excellent last night.
The Baby was really good last night.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
Ziwe was fucking hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Don't Forget the Lyrics!
i did listen to episode 396 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can listen to that by going here:
mom has physical therapy this afternoon. i helped her send some pics to the doctor's office yesterday of her bruises. she has an appointment tomorrow there. i doubt she wants the 8:30 AM one they gave her though. today she wasn't awake until around noon.
i do hope to get some poems written today.
i suppose i need to go check the plants. the weather has cooled down a great deal since those storms on the weekend.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i don't have a damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then kids...

i'm blaming it on the fact i went to bed around 2 AM. but, this also reaffirms my belief that i only get 4 fucking hours of sleep anyway. and today was one of those days i didn't get to take my little power nap that i like to get. joy.
i did take mom to her physical therapy today. her therapist said she is doing better. her new insurance covers all the appointments she needs to get better, so that was good to find out. i wrote 3 poems in the waiting area. i typed those up when i got home. they are pretty good.
Vice News Tonight had some great reporting last night from the war in Ukraine. i hope for a peaceful end to the war, but i also know Putin has no interest in peace. so, with it being like that, i hope the citizens of Ukraine kill as many Russian soldiers as it takes for the conflict to end.
i did get to see what i missed on NXT UK this morning.
Young Sheldon was good last night.
B Positive was really good last night. the season finale is next week.
United States of Al was pretty funny last night.
it was good to see NJPW on American television once again.
Dicktown was fucking crazy last night.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against the Devils. i'm really hoping the Rangers win and win big tonight.
i should be on here tomorrow in the morning. the Dayton Flyers play Davidson tomorrow at 12:30. if i get a wild hair up my ass, i might go to the game. of course, that kind of depends on how my mother is doing in the morning.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. the weather is supposed to be fucking crazy here, so who knows...
until tomorrow kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
my back has been really killing me the last few days. and when i get into these stages of constant pain, i tend to get a little irritable. not violent, not fuck the world mad, but a short enough fuse that i know the asshole inside of me wants to come out and play. that has been what i've been fighting for days now. amazingly, i was able to fight it off again today. and considering the zoo at the grocery store today, i'm a little shocked.
other than the beautiful black woman that asked me about the New Orleans Saints defense, most of the people at the grocery store were just in the fucking way. i'm very understanding with the elderly, considering i live with one. it's these fucking younger people, on their phones, with their earbuds in, basically, in some different world than the present, that are constantly just in the fucking way. and i swear, do any of these fucks understand anything about social distancing? last thing i want is someone breathing over my shoulder looking for canned peas. fuck me.
NXT last night was good. i really wish they would have crowned a new champion last night, but oh well. next Tuesday should be great.
Hard Knocks was excellent last night. i missed part of the show as a storm knocked out the satellite for a five minutes or so. i did enjoy the fact that the players completely understand that this moment in our country is too big to just sit out or say nothing.
Deadliest Catch was really good last night.
here are your highlights from the NBA last night:
here are your highlights from the NHL last night:
the Yankees beat Tampa last night, 5-3. Tampa got a little pissed that the Yankees did to them what they usually do to the Yankees; throw high and tight, back them off the plate, hit them if you have to. so when Chapman threw a 101 mph fastball at one of their heads last night, everyone got a little pissy. Tampa's manager basically said they have a whole pen of guys who throw 98 mph... so yeah, i am hoping for fireworks tonight. i doubt it will happen since the Yankees manager and Tampa's manager are both suspended for tonight. Chapman got 3 games. he is appealing the suspension. good times.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, AEW, Big Brother and Cari & Jemele Stick to Sports.
i'm sure i'll probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight as well.
i should be on here tomorrow after i pick up my pills at the pharmacy. of course, they couldn't have them done when i was at the grocery store.
i need to do my laundry at some point. so, i will squeeze a blog in tomorrow between laundry, writing poems and going back to the store. joy.
i hope this finds everyone well. to all my friends in Minsk, keep up the good fight. to all my friends in the USA, fucking vote please. and to all my enemies, hope you enjoy the blog.
until tomorrow kids...

i finally did some poetry work last night. i think i know where the next round of submissions will be going. i'm not sure when that will happen. i'm shooting for sometime this week.
i did write 1 poem today while mom was doing physical therapy. i typed that up when we got back from Waffle House.
the series finale of The Affair was fucking perfect last night. i absolutely loved it.
the mid-season finale of Power was crazy. i can't wait to find out who shot Ghost.

we got out of mom's doctor's appointment a little sooner than we expected. so, there's a Dollar Tree not far from where my physical therapy is. we were able to waste 30 minutes or so there before we left to my therapy. we only spent $11 at Dollar Tree, so that's not bad.
my physical therapy session was good. no drama like the week before. my therapist said if my back continues to get better this week, next week might be my last session. my back is definitely not as tight as it was the week before, so i'm trending in the right direction.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after mom's eye surgery. i think the surgery is supposed to only be a few minutes long. they are taking a laser to the scar tissue that has formed where her cataracts were. good times. one eye this week and the other eye next week.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
my body is at the point where doing 3 fucking things in one day is probably going to need the assistance of cocaine. between taking mom to the doctor, shopping at Menards and going to the grocery store... my body needs an ice bath or a bottle of booze. i'm trying to take it easy with the alcohol as i know mixing it with muscle relaxers can be tricky. i'm not quite as young as my imagination likes to believe i am.
we got everything we needed at Menards and the grocery store today. of course, today would be the day it got hot and sticky. mom nearly passed out when we came out of Menards. my left leg started killing me when i woke up this morning. the muscle relaxers helped some, but not enough for what i was doing today.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night.
the New York Yankees start a series tonight at home against the Angels. hopefully they will do to them what they did in California, sweep them.

i hope everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend. if you are traveling, be safe. leave the drinking to the professionals.

it's been raining most of the day and my arthritis has me feeling like i'm fucking 80 years old. that's not good on a day where i have places to go and i have to deal with shitty fucking drivers.
i got mom to her test on time and thought i had plenty of time to get to the bank, get some gas and then get the blog done when i got home. little did i know i would drop shit in the bank parking lot. thankfully, the roll of change didn't break open. the hose for the gas at the gas station wanted to fight me today. thankfully, none of that ended up in my eyes. and i had so many fucking emails by the time i got home, there was no fucking way to do the blog then.
mom's test went long. when i picked her up she wanted to get some food and go home. so i had dinner at 5 pm today. i might as well get used to it.
Shameless was excellent last night. the season finale next week should be amazing.
The Chi was fucking great last night.
Crashing was pretty damn funny last night.
Divorce was good last night.
i did watch some of the football games last night. it was funny watching karma kick the Vikings in the ass. of course, i know the New Orleans Saints would have done better in the game. so it's the Patriots vs. Eagles in the Super Bowl. hopefully, the commercials are good.
i stayed up last night and watched the New York Rangers piss away a 2-0 lead and lose to the Kings 4-2. at this point, i almost hope the Rangers miss the playoffs so they are forced to make some fucking changes.

i actually felt tired enough last night that i thought i could sleep for around 10 hours. and then it started raining. needless to say, i was lucky to get 4 hours. on top of that, i must have slept on my neck wrong as well. good times.
well, i got the first round of Christmas cards done last night. i figured i would get my father's sisters out of the way first. now comes the fun part of figuring out what my friends and fans will get this year.
The Voice was really good last night. i don't have a clue which two will be going home tonight.
Monday Night Raw was really damn good last night.

Manchester United takes on CSKA Moscow today at home. this is the last game of the group stage of the Champions League. hopefully they can get a positive result today and win the group.
the New York Rangers play tonight at Pittsburgh. given the way the division is this year, this is a very important game for the Rangers. hopefully they can find a way to win.
i figure most of today will be me doing my laundry and complaining about being in pain. joy.
i'll be on here early tomorrow as i will be going to see the Dayton Flyers play tomorrow night. yes, i am a glutton for punishment.
that's all for me today kids.

when the phone rang this morning, i kind of was fearing they were going to move mom's eye surgery further back in the day. it was the complete opposite. i guess everything was running faster than normal so they wanted to know if she wanted to come in sooner. i still had breakfast to eat and a shower to take. joy. we got there in about a hour or so. mom was done with her surgery by the original time we were supposed to be there. that certainly cleared up the afternoon for me. of course, the remnants of hurricane Irma showed up today.
the New York Yankees won last night over Tampa 5-1. they are now 3 games behind Boston in the division. hopefully they can get another win tonight.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
I Hart Food was pretty good as well last night.
the New Orleans Saints couldn't find a rhythm in the red zone last night and had to settle for field goals. you don't win games in the NFL with field goals when your defense still fucking sucks. i'm not sure they stopped the Vikings at all when it mattered. fucking frustration, hello. the Saints lost 29-19. they next play at home against New England. oh great.

Manchester United defeated Basel 3-0 today in Champions League action. the only bad thing about the victory was the injury to Paul Pogba. it looked like he pulled his hamstring. that means he'll probably miss the game on Sunday at home against Everton.
that's all for me kids. i still haven't picked up the trash and i need to figure out dinner.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
the New York Rangers played decently last night, but decent doesn't get you wins in this league. a 3-2 loss on a goal that the goalie has to make a save on. of course, when the coach can't decide who is the #1 goalie and who is the backup, this kind of shit happens. they play again on Sunday down in Tampa.
after doing the dishes and going through a few hours of email i had to catch up on, i did manage to get a few hours of sleep last night. not much as i was dreaming about the Dateline episode from last night on NBC. as much as i complain about being alone, i do understand it's much better than being with the wrong person.
got up this morning and watched team USA beat Slovakia 6-3 in the World Juniors. i was happy generally with how they played. they do need to clean up all the penalties they take and they must figure out why they always play shitty in the 2nd period. tomorrow morning should be interesting as it is their first back to back days playing. thankfully, they're only playing Germany. that has a chance to get ugly quickly.
that game ended with plenty of time for me to get some breakfast and watch Manchester United play. it wouldn't be a United game this year if there wasn't some injury concern seemingly out of nowhere. Wayne Rooney didn't make the trip to Norwich, resting a sore groin. i'm hoping it's because of the bigger game coming up on Jan. 1st. United looked dreadful in the first half. bring on Danny Welbeck and it all changes. United wins 1-0 with a dramatically better effort in the second half. a much needed 3 points going into the game at home against Spurs.
so i now have the rest of this sunny Saturday to enjoy a couple of victory beers. i imagine i will be watching some college football and taking a long nap for most of today. i do want to watch the WWE Tribute to the Troops this evening. other than that and some ROH, this might end up being a Saturday of doing little shit around the house.
hope this finds everyone well. hope the weather is decent in your neck of the woods. of course, they are saying it's going to rain tomorrow, which will turn into snow. i figured this would happen as i have a ton of trash to take down the lane tomorrow. as long as it isn't too windy. i'm not a big fan of picking the trash up again. now if i could just get the fuckers across the road to understand this concept.
be well. peace and chicken grease.
