welcome to the weekend...

 i had some weird fucking dreams last night. even for me, they were really crazy. hopefully, i'll get a few poems out of them this weekend.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

Holey Moley was fucking hilarious last night.

When Nature Calls was very good last night.

Big Brother was good last night. Frenchie got evicted, 11-1, and i believe Xavier is the new HOH.

Desus & Mero was excellent last night.

the Yankees lost to Boston last night in 10 innings, 5-4. they pissed away leads in the 9th and 10th in epic fashion. truly, this loss was like a punch to the dick.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on Peacock.

i didn't get up early to watch the Opening Ceremony and i won't be watching it tonight either. i'm sure i will watch some of the soccer and basketball when i get a chance. the problem i have when the Olympics are in Asia is i can't stand watching replays of games when i already know what the final score is. so, there will be some either late, late nights or some really early mornings if i want to watch any of these games live. 

the first round of the NHL Draft is tonight. i'm very interested to see what the New York Rangers will do tonight.

Manchester United finally made the Jadon Sancho transfer official today. hopefully he will do great things at the club.

mom needs to take some shoes back to Shoe Carnival, so that's all for me today kids.

i will probably be on here early in the morning tomorrow.

i hope everyone has a great weekend...

until tomorrow...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the shot.

todos tus problemas se remontarán a tu infancia

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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

and of course, it's raining...

it started to rain a little after 1 in the morning. it's still raining, 13 fucking hours later. my arthritis has been bouncing around just having a glorious time all damn day. needless to say, i won't be going to the basketball game tonight, especially since this rain is supposed to turn to snow sometime tonight. oh joy.

Smackdown was excellent last night. i can't wait for the Royal Rumble this Sunday.

205 Live was good last night.

Celebrity Big Brother last night was crazy.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Celebrity Big Brother, The Masked Singer and Drop the Mic. i'll watch NXT UK and NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

the Dayton Flyers play George Mason tonight. i don't think the game is on television, unless i want to pay to see it. so, i'll probably just listen on the radio for most of it. i really do hope Dayton wins. if the weather would be better, i'd probably be there tonight.

i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before mom's physical therapy appointment.

the guy that's going to check the windows should be in here in a couple hours. most of the snow has melted from around the house.

hopefully, i will get some sleep tonight and get those damn poems out in the morning.

that's all for me kids.

mis demonios cobran vida cuando llueve

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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

one step back into the late 20th century

i now have a phone in my room again. i enjoyed those few months where i had no inclination who was calling or any desire to pick it up. now, there's a phone by my bed. all that truly means is the likelihood of phone sex has gone way up. anything other than that, not really.

just had some kids come to the door trying to sell me food. now i remember why i hate living next to people. one of the good things about being poor, no money to buy shit like that.

Big Brother went sort of how i expected last night. Meg got evicted. the house guests were shocked by the double eviction. i was sad to see James get evicted next as he was one of the only reasons to still watch. Steve won the latest HOH and all that means is Vanessa is sitting pretty until the final 3 most likely. these dumb fucks will realize soon that they should have got her out about a month ago.

Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll was excellent last night. so was Married.

i did flip between some college football games last night. it's always good to see that shit school from up north lose. i was doing that while trying to figure out what to write in a card to one of my aunts suffering from cancer. that evil fucking disease. i was a little surprised with what i came up with, given that this aunt is on my father's side. but, i'm too old to hold them accountable for my father's mistakes. besides, i have no clue if she'll still be alive when the card arrives. so if anyone wonders why on any given day this blog could become one long depressing post about death, i am absolutely surrounded by it at the moment. my uncle needs gall bladder surgery and is ever increasingly depressed that he's 80 and can't do what he used to be able to do. maybe the unrealistic gene skipped me. or maybe that's why i picked writing as my "job". i'm pretty sure i'll do this until i die or until the words run out.

speaking of that, it's Flashback Friday time. first up today is my poem "at the community picnic". this poem was published in 2010 at Opium Poetry 2.0. you can find the poem by going here: http://opiumpoetry.blogspot.com/2010/08/at-community-picnic.html

the next poem is "a purple sky of tomorrow". this poem was published in 2013 at The Camel Saloon and comes from my endless amount of love poems for all the women that never gave me the time of day. you can find the poem by going here:

ok kids, time for some music:

those last 4 videos are all bands from the local scene around here.

now, some of this and that:

tonight on the DVR will be NJPW.

the New York Yankees take on Tampa tonight from Yankee Stadium. at the same time, team USA will be taking on Peru in an international soccer friendly. i might have to do a little picture in picture action tonight. hopefully i'll be enjoying two victory beers later tonight.

my sister is coming down tonight for this weekend is her 20 year high school reunion. and since she was a class officer, she has to participate in the festivities. not sure if that is better than not even getting invited like what happened to me at my high school reunions. i guess we're going to celebrate her birthday this holiday weekend. it's really on the 8th but i think she has to work. so, i'm hoping it's a good weekend. other than it being hotter than hell and the threat of a popup storm every other hour, it shouldn't be too bad.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i do hope everyone has a great weekend. if you are in the USA, enjoy the holiday weekend. if you are somewhere else in the world, invent your own holiday weekend and get to drinking.

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...
