there is so much to get to in this blog, i might as well start with the bullshit at the top of my mind. let me paint a picture. i have been talking to this beautiful woman from Georgia (state not country) for the last couple of weeks. i thought we really hit it off. we're both born in January. she's a Chelsea fan. i'm a Manchester United fan. she really liked my poetry. etc. etc. well, last night she told me she loves me. i said i love you too. felt incredibly comfortable saying that as i am at the point of my life where i am fucking tired of being alone. so, i got up this morning and there was no message from her. no big deal, i'll send the good morning. she comes back that she is in pain and her phone is fucked up. ok, shit happens, sorry to hear that. she then sends me a pic that says her camera on her phone won't work unless she has an Amazon gift card. i checked all around the web, already knowing the answer, but hoping to find something where i was wrong. so, you wait until the day after i say i love you to fucking try to scam me. that pissed me off royally. now, i had mailed her a book that should arrive tomorrow along with a birthday card. i usually allow people three strikes. but, when you toy with my emotions and then try to scam me, that's such a red flag that you have to go. so yeah, that was how my day started off. just fucking lovely. but, that should give me plenty to write about for the last 8 poems needed for the book.
i tried to start the Highlander today and of course it wouldn't. i needed to go to Kroger to get some pills and whatever was on the list. the battery charger mom ordered from Amazon is supposed to be here tomorrow. i'm hoping that works or we'll have to get a new battery. joy.
Manchester United defeated Arsenal yesterday in a penalty shootout to advance to the next round of the FA Cup. between a win with just 10 men and the draw at Liverpool the week before, maybe the team finally believes in itself again.
i did watch the NFL playoffs yesterday. Bills defeated the Broncos, 31-7. Eagles beat the Packers, 22-10. and the Commanders defeated Tampa Bay, 23-20. tonight the Rams will take on the Vikings.
The Agency last night was excellent.
Dexter: Original Sin was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i will be watching Monday Night Raw on Netflix.
so, the 3 poems i wrote last night i will look back with a great sense of irony. the poems i will hopefully write tonight will have plenty of venom. i won't be shocked if i get real fucking close to the number i need by 4 in the morning.
i'm ultra depressed now given this shit today. i told mom i should have expected the Highlander not to start when my blood sugar was 99 this morning. for every good thing that happens, there has to be a negative to even it out.
i still have no clue what is going on with my health insurance. and i need to get my driver's license renewed sometime before my birthday on the 21st. joy.
there was something i wrote last night that really has me thinking today. this theory that maybe i am that person who never gets to really fall in love and have that kind of happiness in my life. part of me is so eager to not be alone anymore that i'm willing to overlook the obvious shit just for the chance. that makes me wonder if i'm just rolling the ball uphill just to watch it fall over and over again. i remember in my 20's an old girlfriend warned me i was becoming the bitter old soul. sure enough.
that's all for me kids.
i surely hope your weekend was better than mine.
on the bright side, i did get my laundry done.
now i have to go ice my bad back.
until tomorrow kids...

i was absolutely gutted last night. it hit me hard enough that i gave in to my inner demons and shaved my head. i haven't done that in years. especially in my 20's, i would grow my hair out in the summer and then shave it all off in the winter. maybe last night was the beginning of my mid-life crisis. that certainly wouldn't surprise me.
for everything the Yankees did right in Game 4, the complete opposite happened in Game 5. they started off great last night. they were up 5-0. and then came the errors, the mental lapses, etc. etc. that have plagued this team all season long. the Dodgers did what good teams do when your opponent gives you extra outs. they got 5 unearned runs in the 5th last night to tie the game. the Yankees actually took the lead again at 6-5. but, the bullpen faltered and that was that. the Dodgers won 7-6 to win the World Series 4-1. i was really hoping that i would wake up to the news today that Aaron Boone was out as manager. but, i guess Hal is nothing like his father. anyone with a brain knows that fundamental mistakes come down to a coaching staff not drilling it into the players heads to make sure they do all the little things right. this should be a crazy offseason. the Juan Soto sweepstakes start on Monday. my best guess is he will go to whatever team makes him the highest paid player ever in MLB. i am 95% sure that won't be the Yankees. if just making the World Series is good enough, i really wish the team would change the mantra. it certainly isn't win or bust anymore.
the season finale of Grotesquerie was a bit of a mind fuck last night. i really hope there will be a season 2.
AEW Dynamite was pretty good last night.

it has been raining all fucking day today. add in a little fog and plenty of arthritis, and you have the recipe for a day better spent in bed. it was not easy doing the grocery shopping today. between elderly drivers, people paying with checks and baggers who obviously wanted to be somewhere else... but, i got everything on the list. of course, when i got home, mom was asleep. so, i put everything away. she woke up about a hour later and had no clue i was even back home. good times.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
the Dayton Flyers were playing good yesterday. right before halftime, their starting point guard turned his ankle. when i saw him come out on crutches for the second half, i feared what was coming next. but, the rest of the players rallied and turned an 8 point lead at halftime into a 15 point lead. and then, it seemed like reality hit them. they ran out of steam, the coaching staff didn't help them at all, and eventually, they pissed away that 15 point lead and lost to Richmond, 68-64. now, i know damn well if Malachi Smith doesn't get injured, Dayton wins that game. and to watch Richmond celebrate like they actually believe they are better than Dayton was comical to watch. i truly hope Davidson beats the shit out of them today and the A10 will be a 1 bid league.
before that debacle, i watched the Manchester United game against Tottenham. thank god for CR7. he scored a hat trick and United beat Tottenham 3-2. this was a game they desperately had to win. next up is another game they have to win on Tuesday in the Champions League.
when i turned the New York Rangers game on last night, they were losing to Dallas, 2-0. thankfully, it didn't stay that way. the Rangers won last night, 7-4.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.
i did remember to change the clocks last night.

mom wanted chicken wings last night. the only place around that has wings she likes is Pizza Hut. so, that was what we had for dinner last night. and i imagine the rest of the pizza and wings will be either lunch or dinner tonight.
this coming week is going to be crazy. mom has an appointment for either physical therapy or her skin cancer just about everyday this week. i have a doctor's appointment on Thursday. and of course, have to do the grocery shopping on Wednesday. so, i'm going to try to get the blog done tomorrow in the morning, before i have to take mom to physical therapy.

the NFL playoff games yesterday were fucking crazy. but, given that Tom Brady is out of the playoffs, i am a happy boy. it is pretty amazing that this will be the first championship week in the NFL in 12 years that don't involve Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers. the Rams defeated Tampa Bay, 30-27, after they tried their hardest to blow a fucking lead. the Chiefs defeated the Bills, 42-36 in OT. that was one of the craziest fucking games i have ever seen in my 46 years of life. so, the Bengals will play at the Chiefs for the AFC Championship and the 49ers will play at the Rams for the NFC Championship. it would be pretty crazy if the Bengals and the 49ers play in the Super Bowl, especially since both times the Bengals have made it, they have lost to San Francisco.
Power Book II: Ghost last night was fucking crazy. loved it.

i did listen to episode 379 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:
so, i went to the bank today to deposit the money from my birthday. after that, i went to Rite Aid to get some stuff for mom. and after i got done there, i finally got my hair cut. it feels so much better now.
i should be on here tomorrow after i go to the post office to sign for some mail that they don't trust the carriers to actually deliver. i'm guessing it is from the property in Florida that sold. i haven't decided if i am going to the Dayton Flyers game tomorrow night or not. kind of depends on the weather and my bad back. good times.

amazingly, much like never having a Facebook account, i have never gone out shopping on Black Friday. and honestly, i don't think i have missed anything because of it.
Thanksgiving went pretty good for the most part. i think my sister and mother got mad at each other. i get the feeling my sister just can't accept the fact that mom's health is failing as quickly as it is. as i told my mother last night, that is her problem, not yours.
the Dayton Flyers shocked the shit out of me yesterday. they easily played their best game of the season, defeating Miami of Florida, 76-60. they will play #4 Kansas today. if they win that game, i'll be totally fucking shocked.
the New Orleans Saints got their asses handed to them last night, losing to Buffalo, 31-6. i honestly stopped watching in the second quarter. i gave the remote to my sister and just walked out of the room. it is the first time the Saints have lost 4 games in a row in 5 years.
NXT UK was excellent last night.

so, i was hoping for the best last night when the USA took on Mexico in the Concacaf Nations League final. when Mexico scored in the first 2 minutes, i wasn't happy at all. thankfully, the USA tied it in the 27th minute. it was the second half where this game became a classic. between the injuries, the constant skirmishes, goals and penalty kicks, it had a little of everything. when Weston McKinnie tied the game at 2, i just had a feeling that the boys were going to find a way. Captain America Christian Pulisic scored a penalty kick in the 114th minute to make 3-2. and then Ethan Horvath stopped a penalty kick from Mexico in the 124th minute. i'm pretty sure everyone in the neighborhood could hear me screaming by then. this was the first time in over a decade that the USA came from behind to beat Mexico in a final. i'm so hoping that this is the start of a golden generation that takes the sport to unknown heights in this country. USA won last night, 3-2. i'm still buzzing all these hours later.
the Yankees got swept last night, losing to Boston 6-5 in 10 innings. the umpiring once again was horrific. i'm not sure how a pitch 3 inches off the plate is a strike in 2021. if these games i have watched this year has shown me anything, the fucking robot umpires couldn't be any worse than this shit. thankfully, the Yankees are off tonight.
