one of those days where humans are only in the way...

when it's hot and sticky out, i have a short fuse. now, i don't seek conflict, never really have, but my blood truly fucking boils when i see the ignorance or just flat out stupidity of society. today's culprit was this old woman who certainly shouldn't be behind the wheel of any vehicle, let alone the SUV she was driving today. it's bad enough when a drive-thru is packed. it's worse when someone has to maintain 6 fucking feet of distance between her and the vehicle in front of her. let's just say i was on her ass as closely as i could be, truly tempted to simply move her out of the way. i never did. i believe that is known as maturity.

i went to Meijer today to stock up on some stuff we were running low on. i was hoping to find some picture frames for the art i have been getting here lately. of course, no luck with that.

the New York Yankees lost last night in Oakland, 6-2. Sanchez and Judge hit solo home runs for the Yankees runs last night. my fear is the pitching isn't going to be good enough for them to win in the playoffs this year. and seeing that these are games Oakland has to win to have a chance to make the playoffs, i won't be surprised if the Yankees lose again tonight.

Smackdown was good last night. 205 Live was very good last night.

Miz & Mrs. was hilarious last night.

Deadliest Catch was really good last night.

Hard Knocks was excellent last night.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Big Brother, Songland and Snowfall. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network. i did watch NXT UK this afternoon. it was excellent.

i have to take mom to a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon. i believe we are going out to lunch after that. so, i will probably do the blog when i get back home in the afternoon.

i'm hoping Songland will be posted online early so i can watch it before i leave tomorrow. it's going to be interesting to see what happens with our local NBC station once football gets going.

that's all for me kids. i have a shitty back i need to go ice down.

until tomorrow...

happy labor day

i hope everyone that is celebrating labor day enjoys it. safe travels. don't drink and drive unless you plan on killing yourself. enjoy some food and some relaxation.

the New York Yankees defeated Boston last night 9-2. that moves them within 3 1/2 of first place in the division. what i loved most about last night was they whipped Boston's best pitcher. and Aaron Judge finally hit another home run. it would be nice to get him going again, especially since Gary Sanchez will be out 3 games serving his suspension. the Yankees start a series this afternoon at Baltimore.

Big Brother was pretty funny last night. i'm not sure why these house guests are so stupid.

the season finale of Power last night was fucking great. this show has got better each and every season. i can't wait for season 5.

Ballers was pretty good last night.

Insecure was very good last night. the season finale next week looks great.

The Strain was a little heartbreaking last night. it's painfully obvious that the end of the series is near. i believe there's only 2 more episodes left.

the two part season finale of Twin Peaks last night was a delicious mind fuck once again. just when i thought the show was going to go in one direction, it completely threw a damn curve. brilliant as always.

hello sunshine, my name is...

i have to get out of this damn rut i have fallen into of not going to sleep until 3 or 4 in the morning. now, on holiday weekends, it's not so bad, but on the regular days it's not ideal when you are helping to take care of another human. last night i was doing the dishes at 2 in the damn morning. it's comical when you think about it. 2 victory drinks just so i can stand the pain of doing the dishes for 45 minutes. and then it takes me nearly 2 hours to get to the point where i fall asleep. it's the recipe for early death my friends.

the New York Yankees won yesterday over Boston 5-1. they got some really good pitching and a welcome home run from the returning Matt Holliday. now, hopefully they can get the win tonight as a split in the series does them no good.

ROH was pretty good last night.

i did watch most of Alabama vs. Florida State last night. Alabama certainly did take advantage of every mistake Florida State made. i suppose it depends on how bad Florida State's QB is hurt if they will meet again in the playoffs or not. Alabama won 24-7.

of course, the rain should be back here by Monday night.

i had to turn the storm coverage off. seeing all that damn rain on television was starting to fuck with my brain and my arthritis. we had a brief shower this morning and i felt like hell. i have been making little donations to the American Red Cross, not that i expect a nickle here and there will make a difference.

the New York Yankees won yesterday 10-1 over Seattle. the Mariners committed 5 errors yesterday. thankfully, the Yankees took advantage of them. and with Boston losing yesterday, the Yankees are now just 2 1/2 games behind in the division. they start a tough series at home tonight against Cleveland.

Big Brother was pretty good last night.

Ballers was pretty funny last night.

Insecure was fucking great last night. even though i know it was fake cum, what a wonderful ending to an episode.

The Strain was brilliant last night. an absolutely incredible ending to the episode.

i did watch the first 4 episodes of the Mae Young Classic this morning on WWE Network. i'm so happy to see women's wrestling getting a showcase like this. all of the matches were pretty good. at least one match on each episode was great. i highly recommend it.

i take mom to have her surgery on her right eye tomorrow morning. she's a bit stressed out at the moment, especially since she doesn't know what's up with her insurance and everything since she's been terminated. sadly, i don't think her employer knows either.

i took her out on a little drive today. she had stuff to mail and she wanted to go out to her bank, which is 2 towns over. thankfully, it wasn't raining while we were out. we drove past our old farm on the way back home. looks like the soybeans can still grow out there.

i'll be on here tomorrow in the afternoon most likely. i figure i'll have mom back home by then for sure.

lost souls trapped in a ball of chaos

i tend to look at people in the eyes when i'm out by myself. perhaps it's hoping for magic, perhaps it's the tragedy of being a poet, but the windows to the souls are usually a good, haunting place to start. i saw this woman at Menards yesterday that had some tragic fucking green eyes. even in just a few seconds, i could see pain, hardship, whatever fucking cliche you would like to use for getting the short end of a long stick. the more i am out in public, the more i feel like a kindred spirit with the damaged. who knows what my life would be like if i wouldn't have spent basically a decade sheltered from the world.

the New York Yankees won yesterday 6-3. they finally got a few hits when they needed them. hopefully they can win the series against Seattle this afternoon. they also picked up a game on Boston in the division.

Manchester United was dominant from start to finish yesterday in a 2-0 win over Leicester City. always good when all 3 substitutes contribute to the goals. plus, i'm absolutely thrilled with another clean sheet to start the season.

i don't want to get ahead of myself, but the New Orleans Saints might actually have a defense this year. they defeated Houston last night 13-0. if they could just have a decent defense to go with their usual offense, they could be deadly once again this season.

ROH was excellent last night.

i did watch a little of AAA's TripleMania last night over the internet. it was the 25th anniversary of the event. and god knows, i love a good mask vs. mask match. i never thought Dr. Wagner Jr. would lose though.

Jackie was a pretty sad movie last night. it did remind though of why i have loved Natalie Portman since the first time i ever saw her act. she is fucking amazing.

i imagine if i was 20 years younger, i might actually give a shit that the MTV Music Awards are on tonight.

i did find everything i was looking for at Menards yesterday. they had their Halloween shit out, so i had some fun finding a few creepy things. i have become a big fan of skulls as i have grown older. i found one yesterday that is purple and the red eyes light up. at $2.99, i couldn't resist.

mom started the eye drops for her right eye today. she has the surgery on that eye on Tuesday. she seems to be looking forward to it. i suppose time will tell.

it's hard to imagine all that fucking rain that is falling in Texas. and i don't think they are anywhere close to being done with it yet.

and finally, a few words for my best friend. take the agony, take the guilt, take all the fucking pain, and use it. don't wallow, but you are allowed to grieve however you see fit. embrace the light and squeeze whatever love out of it you can. there are a handful of souls on this earth that do love you. NEVER forget that.

i have no idea when i'll be on here tomorrow. i hope everyone had a great Saturday. and i hope your Sunday is even better.

4 in the morning and still not tired

the only thing i don't like about the long ass WWE pay per views on Sunday nights is all the other shit i'm missing while it's on. so after sitting there and watching about 6 hours of wrestling, i then had 7 hours of shows that i was recording during wrestling to watch. fuck me runnin'. i wouldn't mind it if the wrestling blew me away. sadly, 2 of the matches were really fucking amazing. the rest of the show was nothing better than something they show on Monday or Tuesday. that being said, the fatal 4 way main event last night at WWE SummerSlam between Brock Lesnar, Braun Strowman, Samoa Joe and Roman Reigns was fucking crazy good. it was so good that you could easily have a really positive feel about the whole show after it. the other match that was great was The New Day vs. The Usos. it's obvious that both of these teams have great chemistry. the shitty part is the match was on the damn pre-show. all in all, i get the feeling that tonight on Monday Night Raw they will use their "second chance" to get it right, like they normally do.

the New York Yankees could only manage 3 damn hits yesterday as they lost to Boston 5-1. they are off tonight and start a series tomorrow in Detroit.

shockingly, the New Orleans Saints won a damn preseason game last night against the Chargers, 13-7. i only saw some of the highlights from the game. if they actually have a defense this year, they will be scary.

Big Brother was pretty funny last night. i see Christmas is going along with Paul's plan. i wish they would just give him the damn money already.

Power was fucking great last night. that ending almost had me in tears. next week should be crazy.

Ballers was really good last night.

Insecure was excellent last night.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as always.

The Strain was great last night.

Episodes was pretty damn funny last night. hopefully they have a great final season.

good to feel like a kid again... i think

when i was going to the kitchen to fix my second drink last night, laughing my ass off while i was chanting Adam Cole's name in my head, i started to think about my damn near 40 years of watching pro wrestling. one of my earliest memories is sitting on my grandfather's lap watching wrestling on the television. this is 1979 i believe. i was 3 years old and already reading baseball box scores. fast forward 38 years, i love that i can still get a jolt of whatever from simply watching pro wrestling. and when something exceeds my expectations, for a brief moment or two, all is right with the world.

NXT Takeover Brooklyn III last night was great. every match got slightly better as the night went on, right up to the main event. like what has happened before, the heavyweight title match had to come after an outstanding women's title match. and honestly, Ember Moon vs. Asuka was the match of the night. something just felt a little off about Bobby Roode vs. Drew McIntyre. when Drew won the match and won the championship, i pretty much thought that means Bobby is getting called up to either Raw or Smackdown. and then, Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly showed up. they already appeared in the show earlier beating the hell out of everyone after the tag team title match. when i saw them standing on the apron, i immediately got up from my bed and started to wonder where Adam Cole was going to appear from. as soon as the crowd starting going ape shit, i knew it was actually happening. sometimes the rumors are true. Adam came in the ring and destroyed Drew. i guess we have a new feud for NXT now. seeing three of my favorites from the last few years of ROH standing in a WWE ring together was beautiful and surreal. just like pro wrestling. another absolutely great show that will probably be better than SummerSlam tonight.

ROH was really good last night.

the New York Yankees once again found a way to beat Chris Sale. i have no damn clue how they have managed to beat him this season. a couple home runs and then hold the fuck on. thankfully, Girardi took Chapman out of the closer role and it worked last night. the Yankees won 4-3. hopefully they will win the series this afternoon.

the epitome of a brutal loss

the New York Yankees were two outs away last night from an incredible win against one of the best pitchers in baseball and would have been just 3 1/2 games out of the division. instead, an unbelievable home run and some shitty managerial decisions took place and the Yankees lost 3-2 in 10 innings. an absolute brutal loss that has them 5 1/2 games out. thank god i have matured a bit. 10 years ago that would be the kind of loss that would have me up 2 days later still wondering about it. the Yankees start a series with the fucking Mets tonight. hopefully they start to fucking win consistently again.

Big Brother was pretty funny last night. the look on Cody's face when he couldn't even lose correctly was priceless.

Power was fucking great last night. another excellent ending.

Ballers was really good last night.

Insecure was fucking fantastic last night.

Last Week Tonight was absolutely hilarious.

The Strain was really good last night.

Ray Donovan was good last night.

Twin Peaks was yet another delicious mind fuck. loved the David Bowie flashback.

the season finale of I'm Dying Up Here was excellent last night.

i did watch the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup yesterday. CR7 had a very interesting few minutes. come on as a sub, score an amazing goal, get a yellow card for showing the crowd how many abs you have, get another yellow card (wrongly) for falling down in the box and then push the referee in the back when he shows you the red card. he ended up with a 5 game suspension for just about 20 minutes of action in the game. Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 3-1. the second leg is on Wednesday.

i think i got almost 5 1/2 hours of sleep last night. sadly, i don't think i moved at all. so, waking up this morning, that felt like murder in my joints. hello arthritis, fuck you.

just imagine if the dipshit acting as President would have said what he said today on Saturday. i imagine a good number of people would actually think he was starting to understand what being President actually means. instead, today was simply cleaning up a public relations mess and nothing more. he looked so damn uncomfortable throwing the racists, his people, under the bus. i'm sure all you Trump voters must feel proud.

better than the dreams

i don't think i could have dreamed of Manchester United getting off to a better start to this season. they played the best i have seen them play in years, probably since Sir Alex. and to get a 4-0 win over West Ham to start off the season will hopefully be a sign of things to come. 2 goals from Lukaku and a goal each from Martial and Pogba. i will certainly enjoy that drink this evening.

the New York Yankees got off to a good start yesterday and then the shit hit the fan. Boston whipped them 10-5 and honestly, it never felt that close. i would say hopefully they will win tonight, but i seriously doubt they will. they now have 2 starters on the disabled list and honestly, i could see them have to fight tooth and nail just to hang on to a wildcard spot for the playoffs.

ROH was really good last night.

i did get a good laugh from the President's inability to say the KKK or white nationalists or white supremacists in his bullshit comments on what happened yesterday in Charlottesville, Virginia. of course, when you have fucking racists whispering into your ear everyday from inside the White House, what should i expect. the hoods have been replaced with red hats. as one headline said today, Trump lit the flames of hatred, it's up to us to put them out. i urge all of you to check out this link and read the article and then really, really think about what fucking country you want to live in.

i had a heartbreaking phone call with my best friend this morning. when she told me her apartment has a gas leak but the landlord won't do anything to fix it, i was furious. but, since she told she's been fucked over by every social service there is in Arkansas, i told her the best advice i had for her is to either leave the state or die as quietly as she can. there certainly is a piece of me that thinks i might not hear from her again.

bleary eyed and loopy

i have been up since 5 this morning. it feels like i have spent the whole damn day driving mom around.

her first appointment went really well. her surgeon think her hip has healed rather nicely and she is due back to see him in 2 months.

after breakfast and finally getting a chance to check my emails, it was off to her appointment for her cataracts. the one in her right eye is worse than the one in her left eye, so the right eye gets operated on first. also in the right eye, her cornea is fucked up. that will be managed unless it gets worse and then she gets to have a transplant. she'll have her cataracts done later this month and early next month. hopefully that means she will be bandaged for my sister's 40th birthday.

that damn appointment was over 3 hours long. that gave us enough time to get home, shit, eat and then go right back to where we were this morning for her physical therapy.

that session was supposed to be 45 minutes long. it was over 60. at least the therapist thinks she is doing well. mom doesn't think so. and people wonder where i get my negativity.

i am fucking tired and probably on the verge of falling asleep during Monday Night Raw.

the New York Yankees got some great pitching yesterday. Luis Severino gave up a solo homer in the first inning. the next hit he gave up was in the 7th inning. the offense finally woke the fuck up and the Yankees earned the split with Cleveland by beating them 8-1. they start a series tomorrow night in Toronto.

Big Brother was pretty good last night. too bad Jessica's plan isn't going to work.

Twin Peaks was yet another delicious mind fuck last night.

when Chase Headley homered last night to give the New York Yankees a 2-1 lead over Cleveland, i started to laugh. i think it had been over 100 at bats since his last homer. sometimes the blind squirrel does find the nut. the Yankees got some great defense (what a concept) in the 9th to end their losing streak and win the game 2-1. hopefully they will get a split in the series this afternoon.

ROH was excellent last night.

i did watch a little of George Lopez's HBO special last night. pretty funny.

i also watched a good portion of the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony last night. i am so happy that Morten Andersen finally got in.

i did watch most of the German Super Cup yesterday. it followed the usual script anytime Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich play. Bayern scored late and won on penalty kicks. shocker.

the trip to get ink for the printer yesterday was ho hum. i wasn't expecting to spend over $100 on ink, but at least i got some free paper with the purchase.

i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. mom has 3 different appointments i have to take her to, including the first visit with the doctor for her cataracts. i guess i might try to squeeze one in the early afternoon, but don't be shocked if the blog is late as fuck tomorrow.

i can tell when i don't get enough sleep as the days just seem to constantly roll together. if i get 5 hours at night anymore it's like i won the lottery. i'm sure i'll be dead before i hit 50.

the New York Yankees left a small village on base yesterday and couldn't come up with any 9th inning magic this time. they lost to Tampa 5-3. they start a series with Detroit tonight. thankfully, Boston lost yesterday so the Yankees are still in first place in the division. i'm hoping the Yankees make a trade today for another starter. i do like the trade they made yesterday for Jaime Garcia. now, go get Sonny Gray please.

i did watch a little of the Hall of Fame ceremonies yesterday. i'm so happy for Tim Raines. he was one of my favorite players as a kid. he should have been in the hall years ago.

Manchester United won 3-0 yesterday in Norway. i only got see a little of the game. i think someone in Saudi Arabia was streaming it on Twitter yesterday. i am very happy with the player they signed today.

late night poems

i had a poem pop in my head last night around 3 in the morning. i simply didn't have the energy to get out of bed and write it down at that point. so, i trusted my memory and sure enough... when i got up this morning i wrote it down exactly how it went when it first came to me. and they told me drinking would be bad for me. i also wrote two more poems this morning and typed up all three. i do like them. they will get included in my first submissions of August i suppose.

the New York Yankees won another thriller yesterday against Tampa. Brett Gardner got his second walk off hit of the series to help the Yankees win 5-4. they will go for the sweep this afternoon.

i did watch a good amount of El Clasico yesterday. even in the preseason, Barcelona vs. Real Madrid is something that is a must watch. Barcelona won 3-2 down in Miami.

ROH last night was pretty good.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Ballers, Insecure, Last Week Tonight, The Strain, Power, Twin Peaks and I'm Dying Up Here.

Manchester United plays a preseason friendly in Norway today. i don't think it's on television anywhere, so i'll probably just follow the game online.

the birds looked pretty damn happy i filled the feeders yesterday.

mom changed her mind yesterday and wanted to go back to Meijer to shop. of course, she waited until late in the morning to decide that. and then felt bad when she realized just how late it was given that i had shit i wanted to do by 1 in the afternoon. i'm a stubborn fucker who is used to not getting my way, so we went shopping. we got most of what she wanted. she couldn't find a larger grab bar for her bathroom. i know what i'll be shopping for later this week. thanks to being an aggressive driver, i was back at home about 10 minutes later than i wanted to be. much better than what she feared.

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

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...

start another round of apathy

i was really looking forward to WWE Battleground last night. the tag team title match that started the show off was fucking amazing. sadly, it was straight downhill from there. hell, i think i almost fell asleep a few times during it. and given the people on this show, there's no reason for it to be so damn bad. as someone wrote today, remember when Smackdown was good. apparently the WWE wants you to forget that.

thankfully, the New York Yankees ended their nightmare and actually won a damn series for the first time in 6 weeks yesterday. they beat Seattle 6-4. a winning road trip even, holy shit. they are off tonight and start a series at home tomorrow against the Reds.

Manchester United would have beaten Real Madrid in regulation yesterday if it wasn't for a stupid fucking tackle from Victor Lindelof. instead, they defeated them in one of the worst penalty shootouts i think i have EVER seen. god fucking awful. United will end their time in the USA in a couple days when they play Barcelona.

Big Brother was pretty good last night. i really can't believe Jessica decided to play it safe.

Power was excellent last night. just when i thought it was going to go one way, the show went in a direction i completely didn't see coming. love it.

Ballers was excellent last night.

season 2 of Insecure picked up right where season 1 ended. this season looks like it will be just as great as the first one was.

The Strain was fucking awesome last night. they are certainly going out with a bang in the final season.

Twin Peaks was yet another glorious mindfuck.

I'm Dying Up Here was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy. i will be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

i did write and type up 8 poems yesterday afternoon. i believe that gives me 34 for the month of July now. that makes me really happy as i normally don't write much in the summer. of the 8 from yesterday, i really like a few of them. i figure i'll have one more big writing session this month and probably have some poems ready to go in August.

i know i have dishes to do sometime today as well. i figure that will happen after i get mom back home from her physical therapy session.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

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...
