the last day of calm

 since tomorrow is supposed to be rainy, muggy and windy as fuck, i took today as the last day of calm. it was nice to just relax a bit and watch some soccer and unwind. of course, that only lasted for a few hours. mom had a nurse out here this afternoon. thankfully, her birthday gifts did arrive this morning. she loved the lamp and night light i got her. and we finally have some tomatoes showing up on the back porch. of course, with hail in the forecast tomorrow, i'm going to have to figure out where we can move the plants to save them. good times.


here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:




here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:



the USWNT defeated Nigeria last night, 2-0.


the Yankees won last night against the Blue Jays, 3-2. they go for the sweep tonight.




i did watch most of the Euro 2020 games today. the best game of the day was Belgium coming from behind to beat Denmark, 2-1.



i might watch some of the Copa America tonight. i usually don't pass up the chance to watch Brazil play. Colombia and Venezuela are playing right now.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The United States of Al, Clarice and two episodes of Holey Moley. i watched NXT UK this afternoon on Peacock, it was really good.


i'm sure i'll watch some of the NHL and NBA playoffs tonight.


i have no clue what time i will be on here tomorrow. the storms are supposed to start right after sunrise. so, i doubt i will get a good night of sleep. joy.


to the 14 members of the house that voted against Juneteenth becoming a federal holiday, please go fuck yourselves.



until tomorrow kids...

life sure does love throwing me the curve...

 so, as i was walking out to get the paper and feed the birds this morning, my cell phone was ringing. 9 times out of 10 it's a fucking spam call, so i paid no attention to it. i checked my phone when i got back in and it was the doctor's office calling to tell me they needed to reschedule my appointment due to a family emergency. so now my appointment is Monday morning at 11:30. considering i'm not a morning person, that should be fucking fun.


so, i spent most of today moving shit around the house for mom before my sister arrives. when she gets here, we're going to see if mom's television would actually work in my room. i haven't had a working tv in my room for a couple years now. but, since all the DIRECTV shit comes out of my room, i have kept everything plugged into the television. so, that should be fun. i wouldn't mind if it does work as that will save me around $500 or so.


the Yankees won again last night over the Twins, 9-6. they will go for the sweep tonight.





here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:



here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:



the USMNT defeated Costa Rica last night 4-0. i was hoping they wouldn't have a let down after the win against Mexico. i love how young and hungry this team is. the future looks bright, finally.




happy birthday to the first love of my life. i hope you and yours are doing well.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The United States of Al, Clarice, Dark Side of the Ring and Dark Side of Football. i watched NXT UK earlier this afternoon, it was excellent.





my sister is going to be down here until Sunday. if we don't kill each other, it will be a minor miracle.


i will probably watch some of the playoffs tonight and the USWNT takes on Portugal tonight in a friendly.


i'll probably be on here tomorrow between loads of laundry. 


it figures, it didn't rain much at all today. watch, Monday it will be a fucking flood.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


stay socially distant.

and yet more rain...

 as of about 10 minutes ago, we have had 2.2 inches of rain from yesterday morning. i guess i don't need to water the plants outside now.


the Yankees won last night over Tampa, 4-3. they can win the series with a victory this afternoon.





here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:



here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:




team USA defeated Slovakia this morning, 6-1 to advance to the semifinals of the Hockey Worlds.



i was a little shocked at who the WWE released yesterday.




enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The United States of Al, Clarice, Dark Side of the Ring and Dark Side of Football. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on Peacock.


the USMNT plays Honduras tonight. i will be watching some of that for sure.


mom's doctor's appointment went well yesterday. 


the grocery shopping went pretty good. i was a little shocked that i got everything on the list for less than $150.


the football cards i ordered from Wish.com finally arrived today. i got 5 packs for about $15. there was about $30 worth of cards in the packs.


i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.


until then kids...

absolutely gutted...

 so, Manchester United lost yesterday in the Europa League final to Villarreal 1-1 (11-10) in one of the crazier penalty shootouts i have ever seen. given some time to think about shit, i might be even more upset today than i was in the moment yesterday. i saw in the papers from Manchester this morning that on 3 different occasions, David de Gea went with his gut instead of what he was told to do while trying to make saves. if one of those times is a save, then United wins the damn thing and it never comes down to the goalies taking shots. and honestly, he's been at the club for a decade now, it is time to move on.








the Yankees were rained out last night so they are playing a doubleheader today against Toronto.


the finale of The Masked Singer was very good last night. i did guess the Piglet correct.


i did watch the Friends reunion special on HBO Max earlier today. i thought it was pretty good and certainly brought back some memories.




it was fucking pouring yesterday while i was grocery shopping. arthritis won the day for sure. i didn't get home until around 3:20. i did find some hockey cards yesterday. i got a rookie box set from Upper Deck. 25 cards of all the top rookies from this past season. 


here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:










on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The United States of Al, Dark Side of the Ring and Dark Side of Football. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on Peacock.


so the Yankees had some injury news come out yesterday. Corey Kluber has been shut down for 2 months with his shoulder strain. not a good sign. Luke Voit is out with a Grade 2 injury to his oblique. that's probably a good 2 months there as well. add that into the Manchester United misery from yesterday and you should know by now that yesterday was one of those days i would love to forget it ever happened. sadly, i'm not blessed with that ability.


i will probably be on here tomorrow in the afternoon. i think mom might want to go out shopping tomorrow at Big Lots. not sure yet. it all kind of depends on how she is feeling in the moment. i have learned there are no such thing as plans as you get closer to death.


i did see team USA win at the Hockey Worlds today over Latvia, 4-2.



i need to go test out the new garden hose i bought yesterday. it was on sale and i'm hoping it will be one that lasts for awhile.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


wear your mask.

Corey Kluber...

 so, when i saw the Yankees score last night, i think it was around the 5th inning, i noticed that Texas hadn't got a hit yet. i told mom that we might be turning over to the game soon. she asked why and i told her Corey Kluber was tossing a no-no. i watched the last 9 outs of the game. i was so fucking thrilled when he got that final out. that was the Yankees first no hitter this century. the last one they had was when David Cone threw a perfect game back in 1999. now, the last 3 times the Yankees have thrown a no hitter or perfect game in a season, they went on to win the World Series that year. i wouldn't mind if that happened again. the Yankees won last night, 2-0. they go for the series win this afternoon.










i did watch a good portion of the Lakers vs. Warriors game last night. that was easily the best of the play in games so far. 




here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.






The Masked Singer was crazy as usual last night.


AEW was excellent last night.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The United States of Al, Dark Side of the Ring and Dark Side of Football. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on Peacock.


i did hear back from Punk Noir Magazine on my recent poetry submission. they rejected the poems i sent but did ask me to send to them again sometime. i really want to be published by them, so it's back to the drawing board.


i was going to do my laundry today, but i don't think my back can take that right now. 


i get the feeling i'm going to be in my massage chair most of the day, watching sports and getting up for new ice packs out of the freezer. good times.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. 


until then kids...

i found out that one of the hockey cards i got yesterday is going for $12 these days. that made me happy.


if the plans don't change, i believe i will be taking mom to get a haircut tomorrow. i will be getting mine cut as well.


mom told me yesterday that the nurse that was here last thought she heard some water in mom's lungs. so, that could be reason why i didn't sleep for shit last night.


i should be on here in the afternoon tomorrow. my last load of laundry just got done in the dryer, so that is all for me kids.

the New York Rangers lost last night to Pittsburgh, 5-2. they play at the Islanders tonight.






night 2 of NXT Takeover: Stand & Deliver was fucking amazing. they certainly laid down the bar for the main roster to jump over this weekend. i doubt many can...

i woke up to the news that Prince Philip had died. finally. 



i don't think i'll be going to Menards today. maybe that turns into a weekend thing. or maybe it never happens.


i am going to try to be on here in the morning tomorrow. if a wild hair gets up my ass, i might have some poetry news to pass along.


i hope everyone has a great weekend.

so, while i was running around today...

 i had no clue what was going on in Washington, D.C. my mother asked me about it as soon as i walked in the door. i guess i know what she was doing all afternoon. i'm not going to be shocked when i hear something in the next few hours about mental illness. whenever this country decides to take it fucking seriously for the first time ever, maybe these random acts of crazy fucking violence will decrease over time.


your poet of the day for National Poetry Month is Ebony Stewart. she is my favorite female poet of all-time. i highly recommend everything she has ever done or will do with her poetry.

the New York Rangers needed OT to defeat Buffalo last night, 3-2. at least they got the 2 points.






NXT UK was really good last night.






Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

so, first i went to the post office today to take a package of clothing mom had to send back. she's lost so much weight that clothes she bought just a few weeks ago are too big now. after that, i went to the bank. i always love when Alexis is working. to hear a fine ass black woman ask how are you today Mr. Campbell... good times. after that, i went to Big Lots because mom decided at the last minute she wants Diet Coke in the small cans (3 days after she said she wanted it in the plastic bottles). of course, Big Lots had no Diet Coke in the small cans. she then texted me that she wanted a cheese ball for the weekend. so, i had a decision to make. go to Kroger and forgot about trying to find some baseball cards. or... of course i went to go look for the cards first. i had to drive 20 minutes out of my way and thankfully, i did find some baseball cards at Rite Aid. i got 1 Fairfield Box and 2 2021 Topps Series 1 packs. i paid $14 total for everything. i got way more than $14 worth of cards. after that, i drove all the way back to Kroger. i had to get mom's new pills. thankfully, they had the small Diet Coke cans on sale. and i found a cheese ball that had a reasonable amount of sodium in it. i then made the drive home, a couple hours after i left. joy.


i will probably be on here tomorrow before the Yankees play in the afternoon.


i do hope everyone has a great weekend.


if you are looking to buy some baseball cards, i have cards from 1959 to 2021 for sale. let me know what you are looking for. email me at jcampb4593@aol.com. i have very reasonable prices on everything.

welcome to National Poetry Month...

 i'm going to try highlight one poet a day for every day this month. this will make no rhyme or reason, just basically who the fuck i like or who i can find links and videos for. and no, i won't highlight myself, even though i probably should.


as for today, the poet of the day will be John Sweet. as many of you know, John is my favorite living poet on this planet and has been for quite some time. if you have never read his work, do yourself a favor and buy a damn book and enjoy...

so, i had to take mom to a doctor's appointment this afternoon. her blood pressure is still high, so they are putting her on two new medications. oh joy. i will have to get those tomorrow, whenever they are ready. i'll be going to the bank tomorrow as well.


AEW was fucking great last night. i enjoyed the whole damn show.




NXT was really good last night. 








The Masked Singer was crazy once again last night.


Snowfall was excellent last night.


speaking of snowfall, we had some fucking snow today. crazy as hell, it was 70 the other fucking day and today it was in the 20's.


enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Young Sheldon, The United States of Al, B Positive, Clarice and Cake. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on Peacock.


the New York Rangers play tonight at Buffalo. they ended their losing streak last night, so i'm hoping the Rangers start another one for them tonight.


i did watch most of the New York Yankees game this afternoon against Toronto. the Yankees had plenty of chances to win the game late, but could never get the clutch hit. Toronto won, 3-2 in 10 innings. not exactly how i wanted the season to start, but it is way more fucking important how you finish the season anyway.







i should be on here tomorrow after i get back from the bank and getting mom's new medications. it's going to feel like winter again here tomorrow, so i'm sure i'm going to be achy all damn day. joy.


that's all for me kids.
