mom got out of her appointment for her bloodwork with plenty of time to get to her physical therapy appointment yesterday. thankfully, i got her in there and i was parked and on my way into the building by the time it started to fucking pour. i wrote 2 poems while i was in the waiting room. i typed both up yesterday when we got home. i really like both of them.
the New York Rangers lost last night at Carolina, 3-1. the Rangers seemed flat and had no juice last night. that has to be the last shitty game they play if they actually want to win this series.
Edmonton won the Battle of Alberta last night in OT.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:
the New York Yankees won last night down in that dump in Tampa, 7-2. hopefully, they will win again tonight.

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:
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

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.
get the shot.

i was able to get all the grocery shopping done before the afternoon rain started today. we got a little rain this morning. just enough to make shit steamy this morning before noon.
the grocery shopping went well. i was able to find everything on the list, plus a few extras as mom has put me back in charge of meals again. i'm sure that will last for a couple days and she'll forget and take it back over. good times.
Deadliest Catch was pretty good last night.
WWE Backstage was very good last night.

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT, AEW and What We Do in the Shadows.
i need to do the trash here and next door, so that's all for me kids.

sometime around 8 or 9 last night, i got this pain on the bottom of my left foot. i figure it's my abnormally high arch strained after everything i did yesterday. so, it looks like another day of sitting in my chair working on my pain tolerance. joy.
i did get the birds fed and take mom to the store before we had some rain roll through yesterday. i like to get the food to the birds when i know a storm is coming. they tend to panic easily.
the New York Yankees managed to take a 4-1 lead last night and lose 11-4 to the Angels. i have no damn clue why they pitched to Mike Trout last night. it makes no fucking sense. hopefully the Yankees can get the series win this afternoon.
i didn't watch much of the NBA playoffs last night. by the time i was going to tune in, Golden State was blowing Houston out. so both conference finals are going to have a Game 7. the first one starts tonight when Cleveland is at Boston. here are your highlights from last night.
Patrick Melrose was very good last night.
The Tale was very interesting last night. it was a hard one for me to watch, given the subject matter. Laura Dern was excellent in it.
ROH was pretty good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Billions, I'm Dying Up Here, Westworld, Drop the Mic and Total Bellas.
i was very happy that Real Madrid beat Liverpool 3-1 yesterday in the Champions League final. and that Gareth Bale goal will be shown forever i imagine.
i did do a little poetry work yesterday. i believe i will be sending out 13 poems before this month ends.
that's all for me kids. i hope everyone had a good Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.

i'm not exactly a light sleeper, but i really don't get more than 3 or 4 hours in a row at any point. so, when i thought i heard something last night/early this morning, i looked up and saw the light on in mom's bathroom. i made sure to sleep with my door open and the fan off so i could actually hear or see anything. i put on my glasses and went to her bathroom. she was really proud that she was able to get there on her own (using a walker). i imagine as the days go by, i'll get a little more comfortable with her doing that. my sister is going today to get a handrail to put in the floor by the toilet for mom. that should help her even more.
the nurse came this morning. it was mostly to take some pictures and all of mom's information. the physical therapist should be here before too long. the nurse reminded mom to take her pain pills before the therapist got here.
the New York Yankees got some great starting pitching last night. but, the bullpen shit the bed and the offense forgot to show up until late. the Yankees lost 4-1. hopefully they will beat Oakland this afternoon.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be ROH.
i figure i will probably watch the FA Cup final between Arsenal and Chelsea today, although i'll be rooting for both teams to lose.
i figure i also need to go to the drugstore to get some bigger ice packs for mom so we have more than 1 of them. i also need some shit for me as well.
i suppose at some point i will do a little more writing and get together another round of submissions before the end of the month.
i'm hoping it's not too fucking humid today. i know there is supposed to be the threat of storms. hello summer.
i hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday. take it easy and then take it again.

looks like we are now officially in summer. another day near 90 degrees. those 3 weeks of spring were nice.
mom needed to go to the grocery store today, so i volunteered to come along as i know the heat and her aren't friends. but, of course, i don't have any good shorts clean, so i have to wear the only pair of jeans i have that i like. jeans, 90 degrees, public situation... what could go wrong.
on the drive over, my stomach started to feel a little weird. i figured it was just nerves of the Rangers game tonight. and the good kind of anxiety... something i am looking forward to so much, etc. etc. about 2 minutes into the store, i have to go to the bathroom. not good.
i HATE shitting in public. i avoid it at all costs. today, of course, was an exception. as soon as i sat down, here it comes. at least it was mostly solid. i gave a few courtesy flushes as there were other people in the bathroom. after 15 minutes, i clean my hands good and ignore the young fucker next to me trying to start up a conversation. i suppose i look like a bear in the gay community, but i'm not a part of the gay community. not that there's anything wrong with that.
mom asked me when i walked out of the bathroom if i was ok and i told her well, i don't believe any turds are going to fall out of my jeans as we walk through the store, so let's go. and i of course said this loud enough that anyone could hear it.
needless to say, there will be poems about this.
the Yankees won last night in extra innings, 6-4. that was a victory beer i wasn't expecting. they play again tonight. i have no clue how much of the game i will watch.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. i love how creepy The Wyatt Family is. and stringing the championship situation out with Daniel Bryan is the smart way to go. should get more people interested in the PPV this Sunday.
other than that, i caught a little of the basketball game and the rest of the night was emails. i'm not used to getting this many poems published so close together, so i've been a busy boy. there's going to be some more in the next few days as well.
the New York Rangers play a HUGE Game 5 tonight in Montreal. i'd love for them to close it out tonight. just 1 more WIN and they will be playing for the Stanley Cup. i have a good feeling about tonight, mostly because 20 years ago today, this happened:
i will be drinking myself under the table tonight if the Rangers win.
also tonight, i'm going to try to fit in Deadliest Catch at some point. could be one of those nights i'm up until the sun comes up. good times.
not sure when i'll be on here tomorrow. probably depends on how tonight goes.
hope everyone is well. hope everyone is enjoying the poems. feel free to tell me if you are. fuck, tell me if you don't like them as well. i enjoy a good hate email from time to time. those make for some good fuel at times.
peace and chicken grease my enemies... be well.

i've got my last load of laundry in the dryer, so i figured i would get this out of the way while i'm waiting for that to get done.
it started raining here a few hours ago and is only supposed to get worse as the day goes along. so i'm trying to get all my shit done before the power has a chance to go out tonight. the winds are supposed to get pretty bad and i live around a ton of old trees. not a good combination.
American Horror Story last night was really good. it certainly put me in a creepy mood. that could explain why i was up to 3 in the morning watching a bunch of crazy shit on YouTube.
tonight will be some channel flipping between the NFL game, which has major fantasy implications in my matches this week, the New York Rangers looking for their second straight win, the Saturday Night Live Halloween special, and maybe some horror movies as well. kind of depends on whether the weather gets the better of the satellite feeds and whether my mother is watching the same tv as me. she absolutely hates anything that is remotely horror related. which probably explains why i love the shit.
i almost feel sorry for the kids who will have to trick or treat in this shit tonight. hell, i think some of the towns around here are pushing it to tomorrow. that should piss the bible thumpers off for sure.
i'm hoping to get to bed at a decent hour tonight as i have to go with my mother tomorrow to the medical tests she's having. the doctors told her she wouldn't be feeling good enough to drive after them. lovely. all i'm hoping is they finally figure out what the fuck is going on with her.
i did find out last night that the little bit of corn cleared off the other night was much more than the guy farming out here expected. he's pretty confident that we're going to have a really good yield.
that's pretty much all for me. i need to get some lunch and get my clothes put away before i sneak in a quick shower before the winds of hell come.
hope this finds everyone on a sugar high, sugar being whatever you need it to be.
