Merry Christmas

i hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas.

my sister, mother and i had breakfast together this morning and then exchanged gifts. i think my mother and sister both liked what i got them. i got a few things i wanted and a couple more i needed... so all in all, this morning went as good as probably was possible.

i hope everyone enjoyed my little gift last night. if you haven't listened to it yet, go here:

we watched The Night Before last night. that's become our Christmas movie i guess. it still makes me laugh.

WWE Backstage was pretty good last night.

i also watched some of the football game last night between Hawaii and BYU.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT.

i know i'll watch plenty of basketball games today.

i think my sister is going to leave sometime after lunch.

i have to get out the trash tonight since they will be picking it up tomorrow.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays.

mom has said something about going out tomorrow and looking for a new car. i'll believe that when i'm on the lot looking. our 2002 Toyota Highlander only has close to 250,000 miles on it.

i hope everyone has a great day. hard to believe the final days of this decade are right around the corner.

until tomorrow kids...

Feliz Navidad

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...

Merry Christmas

i didn't sleep well last night. i'm not sure if i was anxious to see if i got any gifts at all or the rain overnight was fucking with my arthritis to the point where i was in too much pain to sleep. whatever it was, it lasted the whole damn night.

i was happy when i opened up my email this morning and saw an email to get Run The Jewels new album for FREE. yes, please.

the New Orleans Saints won yesterday 31-24. that was a great present.

my sister and i watched The Night Before last night. that movie still makes me laugh.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll probably flip back and forth between basketball and football tonight.

i got some really good Christmas presents this year. new clothes that i needed, some Batman stuff that i can always use, my sister got me some cool fucking artwork from when she was out in Seattle, and cash and gift cards are always helpful.

i didn't notice, but the genius that sent the Jimmy Cliff cd i bought my sister sent two, so i got the other copy. my sister did like what i got her, although the one wine book i got she already had. so, now she has 2 of them.

my mother really liked what i got her this year, which really makes me happy. thankfully, i got everything this year for only $7. thank got for Amazon.com gift cards.

when i saw the news this morning of the Russian plane crash, the first thing i thought was karma. although i don't wish human tragedy on anyone, shit happens.

tomorrow is a bit of a clusterfuck. my sister leaves to go back home. Manchester United plays. the World Juniors tournament starts as the USA plays Latvia. so, at some point tomorrow, i'll find the time to get on here. i have no clue when the fuck that will be.

i hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas. if all else fails, buy yourself something and drink it in a pretty glass.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

the eve of something

so i woke up this morning with a splitting headache and a nuclear arms race starting back up. oh goody.

the Dayton Flyers did a decent job last night keeping my mind off of the pain i was in. they had 7 players score in double figures last night as they easily crushed VMI 92-56. Scoochie Smith got his 1,000th point last night and the team tied the school record with 15 3 pointers. they did all this with their best player, Charles Cooke, sitting out with a wrist injury. hopefully that will be better by the time the A-10 schedule starts on December 30th against La Salle.

i got home to find out the New York Rangers got beat by Minnesota 7-4. that's two straight games the Rangers have given up 7 goals. not fucking good. maybe the Christmas break is coming at the right time.

of course, it's a bizarre world when the Columbus Blue Jackets have the most points in the NHL at the Christmas break.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows. i can't wait for it to come back in 2017.

the New Orleans Saints play today at home against Tampa Bay. there is a small sliver of a chance for the Saints to make the playoffs. hopefully that chance still exists when they play today. i would love to see them win and basically screw up any chance for Tampa to make the playoffs.

i'm not sure what i'm doing this evening. usually my sister and i watch a movie on Christmas Eve. i think our new tradition is going to be the movie The Night Before. either that, or i might try the Westworld finale.

i hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas Eve. if you're shopping, good luck. if you're traveling, stay safe. if you're drinking, welcome aboard.

i hate my family just enough that i will probably be on here at some point tomorrow. as for now, i have a garage to rearrange. hopefully i will get that done before the Saints play.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

when you have to convince yourself you slept instead of...

i'm pretty sure what sleep was for me last night was 5 1/2 hours of being unable to get my back into a comfortable position. so with that killing me today, my sister went alone to see our father's family. i doubt i'm going to miss much.

the New York Yankees lost again last night, 6-3. thankfully, i believe that was enough to waive the white flag. they traded Andrew Miller to the Indians this morning for 4 prospects. 2 of them are in the Indians top 5. for some reason, they traded for former Yankee Tyler Clippard. i guess they wanted a veteran arm in a depleted bullpen now. but, the good news, the Yankees now have 7 of top 100 prospects in all of baseball. that's one way to rebuild a farm system. now, if they can just get rid of Nova. McCann, A-Rod, Tex and Beltran, i'll be thrilled. hopefully they will get swept by the Rays today.

i finally got a chance to watch The Night Before last night. i believe i have a new go to Christmas movie. that was fucking hilarious. my sister loved it as well.

we saw the fireworks last night from the community picnic. thankfully, it was a nice enough night that you could actually have a beer while standing in the driveway watching.

ROH was excellent last night. it's been awhile since i've seen someone get their head shaved on television. classic heel move. good stuff.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Power, The Night Of, Ballers, Vice Principals, Last Week Tonight, Ray Donovan and Roadies.

i did see that Manchester United won their friendly yesterday in Sweden. and it was good to see that it took less than 4 minutes for the King of Sweden to score.

i got my laundry done yesterday. i think i did tweak my back a little while bending down to get the clothes out of the dryer. good times.

i saw this the other day and had to laugh. it's so fucking true.

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