it is like a low hum in my left ear today. i'm not sure if it is something COVID related or maybe my mental tricks actually still work from time to time. i have always been a big believer in accepting the pain as a means to control it. after my 3 hours of shitty sleep last night, i figured that would be the best thing i could do with my ear. so far it has worked pretty good for me today.
so, if all goes to plan tomorrow, mom will be back home. the group call today went pretty good. i could tell from listening to mom on it, she is more than ready to be back home. i do feel like i am symptom free, so i will hopefully be testing negative soon.
the World Cup was a bit crazy today. i woke up and saw Argentina was up 1-0 on Saudi Arabia and went back to sleep. so, when i woke up later and saw that Saudi Arabia beat Argentina, 2-1, i had to make sure i had my damn glasses on so i knew i wasn't misreading something. holy shit. in the other games today, Denmark and Tunisia finished 0-0, likewise for Mexico vs. Poland; France defeated Australia today 4-1.
CR7 is now gone from Manchester United. i can't say i am surprised. it was obvious what he was trying to do with the Piers Morgan interview. hopefully he finds what he is looking for but i highly doubt anyone other than those teams in China or Saudi Arabia is going to pay what he wants to play anymore.
now, if this Manchester United news actually happens, i will be more than happy...
the New York Knicks won last night in Oklahoma City, 129-119.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
The Voice was really good last night. i have no clue who is getting voted off tonight.
Monday Night Raw was very good last night.
the series finale of The Vow last night was excellent. hard to believe there are still people brainwashed by that fucker.
Avenue 5 was hilarious last night. the season finale is next week.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, NXT and Tales From The Territories.
the New York Rangers play tonight out in Los Angeles against the Kings.
i should be on here tomorrow before the Dayton Flyers play Wisconsin down in the Bahamas.
tomorrow in the World Cup, Morocco plays Croatia, Germany takes on Japan, Spain plays Costa Rica and Belgium plays Canada.
i need to pick up the trash and figure out my dinner tonight.
until tomorrow kids...

so, when i woke up this morning, i was feeling like i hadn't slept at all. that's always fun. my bad back has been killing me for weeks now. no matter how much i stretch or ice or just rest, it doesn't get much better. i am losing weight, but i think that is by attrition. after breakfast today, i could feel my body just shutting down. so, i got back into bed and tried my best to sleep. the siren in my left ear is still going non-stop, so sleeping isn't fucking easy at all anymore. i did stay in bed until the second half of the USMNT game today. after watching that, i probably should have just stayed in bed. more on that in a bit.
the New Orleans Saints won yesterday over the Rams, 27-20.
the New York Knicks lost yesterday at Phoenix, 116-95. they play tonight at the Thunder.
here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:
i did catch most of the games today and yesterday in the World Cup. i am pretty disappointed the USMNT tied Wales today, 1-1. while it is better than a loss, they could have won today. that will make getting out of the group even harder, especially since England destroyed Iran today, 6-2. Ecuador beat Qatar 2-0 yesterday and Netherlands defeated Senegal today, 2-0.

i might watch some of the NFL game tonight between the Cardinals and 49ers.
i know i need to be up early tomorrow morning for a conference call with the social worker where mom is. mom seems to be doing pretty good. i'm just hoping they get her blood pressure under control.
i should be on here tomorrow after the World Cup games are over. the games tomorrow are Argentina vs. Saudi Arabia, Denmark vs. Tunisia, Mexico vs. Poland and France vs. Australia.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

so, i woke up this morning in pain, but i figured that would be the case. anytime the winter weather begins, my back decides it wants a fucking vacation. add on top of that the likelihood that i have COVID, and you can just imagine where my mind was drifting off to today. i guess mom is doing a little better but it is looking more likely, as of right now, that she will need home healthcare. it still looks like she will get discharged on Thursday.
i was hoping to do my laundry today, but i knew that wasn't going to happen with my back feeling like this.
The Voice was pretty good last night. i have no damn clue who is going to get eliminated tonight.
Monday Night Raw was good last night.
The Vow was pretty disturbing last night. the season finale is next week.
Avenue 5 was hilarious last night.

the Dayton Flyers play late tonight out in Las Vegas at UNLV. Dayton is now ranked #21 in the country and are 4 point favorites tonight.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
i know probably after the game i will get the trash out. hopefully, it won't be snowing when i do that.
it definitely is going to feel weird not going grocery shopping tomorrow. i'm hoping i will feel better than i do right now. i have been blessed with some crazy fucking gas in the last few hours. the kind where you sit on the toilet for hours and just listen to your stomach rumble. good times.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
a big thank you to everyone that has checked out my latest published poems:
i was beyond tired last night. i got the dishes done around 3:30 AM. my mother was still in the bathroom, where she had been since basically midnight. by 4 AM, i was dragging and knew i needed some NyQuil and sleep. so, i asked my mother if she needed anything since this was going to be her last chance to ask. she said no. i woke up at 9 AM. i went into her room and all the lights were still on. i went into the bathroom and she had stuffed her diaper and her pants into the toilet. i think i said WHAT THE FUCK loud enough to wake up the neighborhood. i went into the other bathroom to piss. i cleaned out the toilet and sure enough, i then had to shit. and by the time that was done, mom had peed in the bed. so, there was another load of laundry to do. i did eventually get her dressed and out to the living room. i made her breakfast and thought she was actually going to be ok. silly me. she spilled coffee on the floor. she somehow got cream cheese on her phone, pills and her hair. she asked for a diet coke and promised to use both hands. she spilled that all over the floor. and then the best part was when she was accused me of kidnapping, not allowing her to talk to people, etc. etc. all because she didn't realize her phone was upside down. i showed her how to open it and dial, etc. and then she accused me of not showing her what i just showed her. that was my 9 AM to 3 PM life today. i got some dry socks on her and some dry pants and i think she is actually sleeping now. i was able to go to Rite Aid and get my prescription and all the other shit i needed. thankfully, that only took 30 minutes today.
the USWNT won yesterday against Germany, 2-1. that ended their 3 game losing streak.
the New York Rangers won last night over Arizona, 4-1.
The White Lotus last night was hilarious.
Let The Right One In last night was excellent.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

i'll keep everyone updated on what is going on. i need to find mom's paperwork so i can get her back on her meds. so, that great hunt will begin when she wakes up as i don't want to wake her as i'm going through files and then get accused of something. she already threatened me once today.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

so, the New York Rangers pissed away a 2 goal lead yesterday and lost to Detroit, 3-2 in OT.
The Masked Singer was crazy last night, as usual.

i'm hoping i will feel better after i take a shower. if i do, i will be going to the Dayton Flyers game tonight at home against Lindenwood. i think Dayton is favored to win by 32.
the New Orleans Saints play at home tonight against Baltimore.
the New York Knicks play tonight at Minnesota.
i did listen to episode 420 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:
i did make a trip to the bank today. i hate that i have to drive even farther to get to a Chase bank now. oh well. after i made that deposit, i headed to Lee's because mom wanted some chicken and mac & cheese for lunch today. of course, Lee's didn't have the chicken she wanted, so i just got her the mac & cheese. thankfully, there wasn't a line at Wendy's and i know she can have the grilled chicken there. i used the bread for a sandwich for the chicken i got from Lee's. i have to have a rolodex in my head of what she can eat with her sodium restrictions at all times. if i go insane anytime soon, everyone should understand why.
The Voice was really good last night.

i should be on here tomorrow after i get all the grocery shopping done.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
it has been rainy and gloomy here all day long. if it would have been colder, it would have completely reminded me of many nights trick or treating in my childhood.
Manchester United won yesterday at home against West Ham, 1-0. the goal was scored by Marcus Rashford, which was his 100th goal for the club.
the New Orleans Saints won yesterday over the Raiders, 24-0. i was shocked at how poorly the Raiders played or, holy shit, there's the Saints defense i was expecting to see this season. hopefully, this is a sign of things to come.
the New York Rangers won last night in Arizona, 3-2.
the New York Knicks lost last night in Cleveland, 121-108.

so, i think i finally found the perfect woman for me. now, it is just a matter of convincing her that she is the one and how the fuck can we erase these miles between us. but, this might be the fire that actually lets me live past the age of 50. so, that's some pretty amazing news for today.
the New York Knicks won last night over Orlando, 115-102.

i did get mom to physical therapy on time today. i wrote 1 poem while in the waiting room. i typed that up this afternoon. i think it is pretty good. i got her to her Compunet appointment on time. i will probably have to take her back in the morning most likely.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
let me get this out of the way... i am so fucking disappointed with the New York Yankees. but, i think the Deadspin article i read today summed it up perfectly. they stopped being the Yankees and wanted to be smart with their money, be frugal at times, not have all the best players, etc. more or less, not be the Yankees of years past. you know, those teams that won all those championships and had all those hall of famers, etc. why the fuck would you ever want to be like that? fuck me. so, of course, the Houston Astros swept them yesterday. the Yankees blew two different leads in the game. and the last out was Aaron Judge weakly grounding out to the pitcher. talk about the wrong time to have a simply awful playoffs; when you're trying to back up a truly amazing regular season. if the Yankees don't sign Judge, this will be their excuse. the playoffs. he fucking sucked in them. i doubt very much that the owner has the fucking guts to fire the manager and the general manger. and honestly, if the Yankees don't make some serious changes to their front office and roster, this will be the insanity of let's just keep on doing the same fucking thing and one year, it will change. so fucking stupid.
here are your highlights from the MLB playoffs yesterday:
the other punch to the dick yesterday was the New York Rangers having their asses handed to them by the Columbus Blue Jackets at MSG. the Rangers were outplayed the entire fucking game. and Columbus had played the night before. completely unacceptable.
at least the MLS playoffs didn't disappoint yesterday:
Let The Right One In was excellent last night.
the season finale of Power Book III: Raising Kanan was great last night.

i had so much i wanted to do this weekend and none of it actually happened. i often talk about living in the margins of life. that is exactly the example i use. it reminds of a poem i wrote years ago. if i die alone, does the body ever get discovered? my best guess is only if i owe someone some money.
i need to go buy dinner. not sure what mom wants, but my attempt to cook some ribs last night did not go well.
i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to physical therapy and then a little trip for her to have some work done at Compunet. thankfully, all of it is in the same facility.
the New York Knicks play tonight. i might catch some of that while eating dinner.

i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays. i will hopefully get the grocery shopping done before that happens.
basically today has been an early glimpse of winter. snow showers (very light, no accumulation), no fucking sun and people who can't fucking drive.
i did get mom to physical therapy this afternoon. after she was done with that, we went to the DMV to renew her handicapped placards. she was amazed at how the new place looks. thankfully, it wasn't busy.
at some point tonight i'll get all the trash picked up and ready to go out. i have dinner all planned out, so hopefully the rest of the day goes smoothly.
