so, i was up early this morning and got myself to the dealership about 10 minutes before my appointment. 90 fucking minutes later, the new tire was put on the Highlander. at least that bullshit is over with. after that, i went to Big Lots. mom wanted me to look for some slippers for her and i was looking for some baseball cards. i got 3 packs of 2022 Topps Series 2. didn't find any slippers for her. after that, i had to go to Kroger to pick up a prescription for my mother. thankfully, i got there before they took their lunch break. when i got back to the Highlander, i noticed that Croatia and Brazil was going to penalty kicks. i started to race home, hoping i would get to see a little bit of that. by the time i got in the garage, i saw the news.
Croatia stunned Brazil today at the World Cup, beating them 1-1 (4-2) on penalty kicks. i did get the chance to watch the second game. that was another holy shit affair. Argentina built a 2 goal lead only to watch the Netherlands score 2 late goals to send the game to extra time. the game went to penalty kicks and Argentina won, 2-2 (4-3). Croatia vs. Argentina in the World Cup semifinal should be an entertaining war.
i've got my final load of laundry in the washer. i did go through the baseball cards. i got a few good ones today.

Young Sheldon was pretty funny last night.

welcome to the weekend boys and girls. hopefully it won't rain here, even though the chances are pretty high for pop up storms all day long. at least the grass got cut yesterday.
i had to run to Kroger last night to get some pills for mom. thank god i don't do my grocery shopping on Fridays. that store was fucking packed beyond belief. the pharmacy on the other hand, i was able to walk right up and get her prescription with no line at all.
the Yankees beat the Cubs last night, 2-1 in 13 innings. both teams left small villages on the base last night. hopefully, the Yankees will win a little easier tonight.
here are your highlights from Game 4 of the NBA Finals last night.
the USMNT defeated Grenada last night, 5-0 in CONCACAF Nations League. Jesus Ferreira scored 4 goals last night. maybe they have FINALLY found a striker to use for the World Cup. of course, Grenada stinks, so lets see how he does in the next match at El Salvador.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.
AEW Rampage was excellent last night.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, after i got done at the UPS store yesterday, i headed over to Big Lots. they had nothing, completely wiped out of any baseball or basketball cards. well fuck. i went to the Dollar Store right next door, and they didn't have anything either. well shit.
i got home in time to watch the Yankees game. when they fell behind yesterday, 4-1, i was very interested if they could come from behind and win. sure enough, the Yankees scored the next 5 runs to sweep the series, 6-4. that's 9 straight wins.3 straight series sweeps. they start a series tonight in Toronto against the Blue Jays.
i did catch some MLS games yesterday. that new stadium in Nashville looks good.
