getting older

i had to drive my mother to her doctor's appointment today. they had to inject something into the ear she had her shunt put in. it was a little unnerving to watch your mother grab on to the chair like she was being killed. thankfully, she wasn't. hopefully this injection does the trick. i certainly know she doesn't want another one.

i was up really late last night. mostly just fucking around on YouTube. i did get to see the new episode of Video Game High School. it was a really dark episode at times. but, having experienced a few deaths in my life, i thought they did a pretty good job of acting it out. the stages of grief can be a motherfucker at times.

the New York Rangers lost a heart breaker last night, 4-3 in a shootout. at least they got a point out of the game with a defense that mostly belongs in the AHL. it was nice to see Martin St. Louis start scoring. that will certainly help in the upcoming games. they play again tomorrow night.

my 14 point lead in fantasy football became a 15 point loss by the end of the game last night. that team is basically dead in the water now at 3-6. my other team is 6-3 and in first place in the division. so, at least i should have one team make the playoffs. i went 10-3 picking games last night. that's more like it.

had a little busy day on NoiseTrade. i'll provide the links below.

Monday Night Raw was really good last night. might be the best episode in months.

Gotham was fucking awesome. that show is damn near perfect.

Men in Blazers was really funny last night. they seem to be really hitting their stride now.

The Voice was good last night. my girl Reagan James did great once again. she's definitely my choice right now to win it all. tonight is the recap of all the knockout rounds. i can't wait for the live shows.

i did write two poems today when i was out with my mother. i will probably type those up late tonight.

i saw this last night and laughed my ass off...enjoy:

not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. i definitely need to get my laundry done and get some poems mailed out. i'm guessing early evening.

hope everyone is doing good. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

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...

welcome to the doldrums

i had a brief moment of reflection this afternoon, while watching some porn of course, that resulted in 4 simple lines. and i think it pretty much sums up my life at 38.

my asshole is leaking and i have
hair growing in places i can't see
it certainly doesn't come as a surprise
that no one is willing to marry me

for some reason, i feel like Janne Karlsson is going to send me some brilliant artwork based on those 4 lines.

i spent most of the morning fucking around on YouTube, trying to catch up on the stuff i missed last night. saw some of The Voice, it was better than last week but none of them have blown me away yet. saw some of The Big Bang Theory, that show always makes me laugh. i also saw the Boardwalk Empire show i missed last night on HBO. it was mostly the cast and crew going over the show. i'm really going to miss it after this coming Sunday. i also saw the next episode of Video Game High School.

i did have one mini miracle happen for me last night in fantasy football. i came back from being down 14 points to win by 5, all thanks to the Steelers starting RB. my other match finished in a loss. but, i did go 10-5 on my picks. my goal is to get to double digit wins each week. and i'm still alive in the suicide pool. i haven't made it this far without a loss EVER. so, i'm hoping i can keep up that streak.

Gotham was excellent last night. Monday Night Raw had some really good moments. the Mick Foley surprise was great. hopefully the upcoming ppv will have some holy shit moments.

the New York Rangers play at the Devils tonight. hopefully the boys can get another win. i'll be watching that for most of the night.

i am planning to watch some of The Voice tonight.

i think the World Series starts tonight. i won't give a shit unless it is a close game late. then i might watch.

i did get some free music today on iTunes and NoiseTrade. i'll provide some links below.

the weather has been gloomy for most of the day today. i think it's supposed to warm up by the end of the week.

i did write 3 poems last night. first time i have written anything in about 3 weeks. i typed up the poems this afternoon and i really like them. i'm planning to send out some poems tomorrow most likely. these 3 will be going out with the batches in November.

that's all for me today. hope everyone is alive, or at least comfortably numb. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

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

a fresh slice of hell...

we've been battered with storms more or less for the last 12 hours. mostly just high winds but no damage that i can tell. the rain has been killing my back though. the last line moved through here about 30 minutes ago. i'm hoping it will be out of the area when we drive to Columbus in 45 minutes or so.

i'm not looking forward to the drive given the wind. now, if we don't come across too many 18 wheelers, it should be fine. but i know how this state is. construction areas, sleepy truck drivers, accidents. my fingers are fucking crossed.

the guy who farms out here did take off some of the corn before the storms hit. i'm guessing he needed some to fill up a truck. but, the harvest season has begun.

i did watch most of Gotham last night. excellent as usual. Monday Night Raw could have been so much better. i'm blaming it on lazy fucking writers. i caught most of The Voice on YouTube. i thought a couple of the battles were good but nothing blew me away. i'm going to miss the show tonight, so i'll be relying on YouTube again. The Big Bang Theory was pretty good last night. i caught that on YouTube after i watched the new episode of Video Game High School. one of my guilty pleasures on YouTube where i allow my inner geek to have some fun.

the Rangers play the Islanders tonight in a game where i would love to see the Rangers defense look much better than the last 2 games. i'll follow the game up in Columbus at the Blue Jackets game. thankfully, our seats on the club level aren't that far from the scoreboard for out of town results.

i'm hoping the game tonight is entertaining. maybe some goals, maybe some fights. maybe not as long a line in the restroom, etc. etc.

i won both of my fantasy football matches last night. now, i need to pull off some waiver wire magic as i have another bye week that's going to take out some of my good players.

i need to get in the shower so i'm going to cut this short. if anything interesting happens tonight, i might be on here later. if not, i'll do a nice long recap tomorrow. especially if i'm eating at Waffle House or Steak 'n Shake at 11 pm or later once again.

hope everyone is doing good. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.
