or maybe it is simply, i can't fucking stand Mondays. today has been one of those days where it seems like i'm just fucking stuck in first gear and don't have the ability to get going. add in my mother falling again and me screwing up my back trying to get to her and you can easily understand why i turn to alcohol on most days.
i think most of mom's falling is due to her vision being so bad she has absolutely no sense of depth perception. so, this once again will be the battle between being stubborn and asking for fucking help. as always, i'll be the one stuck in the middle, getting more frustrated by the minute. good times.
the Yankees lost to Boston last night, 3-0. it almost seems like the team is just going to coast for the rest of the season, see if they can still win the division and then flip the switch in the playoffs. great. they start a series at home tonight against Tampa Bay.
team USA defeated Sweden last night, 3-2, at the World Juniors. that means they will finish first in the group and play Czechia in the quarterfinals.
the season finale of Westworld was excellent last night. i'm hoping there will be more of the series, but if there isn't, this finale was the perfect goodbye.
Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.
VICE was very good last night.
The Chi was really good last night.
City on a Hill was good last night.
Flatbush Misdemeanors was pretty funny last night.
Big Brother was good last night. i'm happy for Taylor.
Power Book III: Raising Kanan was fucking great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Industry.
i did listen to episode 408 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:
i didn't get to bed this morning until 5 AM. i was up at 9 AM. nothing like sitting at the table at 4 AM going through the coupons after getting the dishes done and seeing your mother come out to the table, not really sure what she is doing. i keep telling her, and you wonder why i don't get to sleep much anymore.
she was supposed to have a counseling session online today but of course, that got cancelled. so now, she has to do one in the morning and i know tomorrow will be a fresh slice of hell as she is not a morning person.
thanks again to everyone that has checked out my latest published poems. i've had 9 published in the last 3 days. not bad...
on top of the fact, i'm out of bread, so i will be hitting the local grocery store sometime this afternoon. it would have been nice if i would have remembered that yesterday when i was shopping. oh well.
i turned off the Manchester United game yesterday when they were losing 2-0. they eventually lost to Brentford, 4-0. even worse, they are now at the bottom of the league for the first time in 30 years. now, i know it has been just 2 games, etc. etc. they play Liverpool next, so i can just imagine how bad it is going to get before it even starts to get fucking better.
thankfully, the day got better from there...
team USA defeated Austria yesterday at the World Juniors, 7-0. they play Sweden tonight for first place in the group.
shopping went pretty well yesterday. i didn't find everything, but i didn't break the bank to get what i got either.
the Yankees won last night in Boston, 3-2. IKF hit his first HR of the year and drove in the winning run with a safety squeeze. hopefully, the Yankees will win the series tonight.
the New Orleans Saints lost last night at Houston, 17-13. i put no stock into preseason football, so the loss doesn't bother me. none of the starters really played, so...
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, VICE, The Chi, City on a Hill, Flatbush Misdemeanors, Power Book III: Raising Kanan, Last Week Tonight and the season finale of Westworld.
i do plan on doing my laundry today. given that the Yankees don't play until tonight, i'll have all afternoon to get it done.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
so, i guess the person i am not supposed to talk about has someone reading this blog for her and telling her what is in it. i'm not sure that's the best use of fuck you money, but that's just my opinion. my mother and i got into it yesterday as she accused me of not allowing her to have any friends. that truly made me laugh. my mother has no friends because she dedicated her life to work and nothing else. that is why retirement has been so fucking hard for her since she doesn't understand the concept of hobbies. so, i offered to simply remove myself from the situation completely and she can see how it would go for her then. i believe she saw the absurdity to all of this and dropped the conversation completely. of course, i brought this up because it was after a hour conversation she had with the person i'm not supposed to talk about. so yeah. that was how may day was going yesterday as i was watching the Yankees lose yet again. just fucking great.
this made me feel old as fuck today:
and since i love history, this one hit me pretty hard today:
the Yankees lost to the Cardinals yesterday, 12-9. they left a small village on base and the pitching yesterday just fucking sucked. of course, the home plate umpire fucking sucked yesterday as well. when he took a foul ball right to the mask the first word that exited my mouth was karma. that's 5 losses in a row for the Yankees. they start a series tonight in Seattle. they might want to start playing better RIGHT NOW.
Westworld was fucking great last night. the season finale is next week.
Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.
VICE was very good last night.
The Chi was excellent last night.
City on a Hill was good last night.

so, i got up this morning, made some breakfast for myself and was all ready for the Manchester United game. sadly, i don't think many of the players were. United lost to Brighton, 2-1. not exactly how i was hoping for the ETH era to begin. of course, i was thinking that the ownership and the board was going to be all in on just how much the club needed to change. silly me. hopefully, the board saw today that they still need tons of improvement in all areas of the club. and if they don't get it done in this transfer window, it is going to be a long ass season.
the Yankees lost last night to the Cardinals, 1-0. hard to win when all you get is two fucking singles for the entire fucking game. hopefully, they will end this fucking losing streak this afternoon.
AEW Battle of the Belts 3 was really good last night.
Jackass Forever was fucking hilarious last night.
mom wanted pizza last night, so i ordered some Pizza Hut. it went much better than the last time.

just as i was finishing up the blog yesterday, the news broke about the death of Bill Russell. now, as a basketball fan and as someone who tries to champion human rights as much as i can, i was always aware of Bill Russell. any of you too young to know much about him, do yourself a favor and learn everything you can about the man.
and then later in the day, i saw the news about the death of Nichelle Nichols. the inner geek in me was crushed by this one. i have always found black women to be beautiful and she was one of the first ones to really light my imagination.
the Yankees bullpen pissed away a win yesterday. they lost to the Royals, 8-6. in response to that, the Yankees GM made two fantastic trades today to sure up the bullpen and add a top of the rotation arm as well. i think they will make a few minor trades before the deadline tomorrow, but they are fully equipped to go win the World Series now.
Big Brother was good last night.
Westworld was fucking great last night. just two episodes remain in this season.
Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

the Yankees start a series tonight at home against Seattle. this could be a possible playoff matchup, so i'm hoping the Yankees play well and win.
i did listen to episode 406 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:
mom had some cleaning ladies out here today. i wasn't that impressed with what they did, mostly because i'm not a fan of cleaning and then forgetting where everything was to begin with. she also had a guy out here doing the measurements for the bathroom remodel. i get the feeling i'm going to have to make the decisions on everything as she procrastinates about all of this shit. good times.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the bank and Rite Aid. i'm hoping to get all that and the blog done before mom has physical therapy in the afternoon.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
so, i was hoping that SummerSlam was going to be good last night. it wasn't. it was great. you definitely could feel how HHH is going to do things differently than Vince did. and honestly, right from the start of the show, the pacing was better and the oh shit moments were amazing.
the Yankees won yesterday over the Royals, 8-2. Aaron Judge hit another home run. he now has 200 for his career. he's the second fastest to get to that mark in MLB history. he also set the Yankee record for most home runs before August. when you are doing stuff that Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle did, you are having an unreal season. hopefully, the Yankees will get the sweep this afternoon.
the Red Scare lost yesterday in the TBT semifinals. it looked like they ran out of gas in the end.

i need to go to the UPS Store today to return a bunch of shit mom got from Amazon. this is part of the problem when a nearly blind woman decides to shop online.
hard to believe that tomorrow is the first of August.
i did watch some MLS games yesterday.
i have no clue what time i will be on here tomorrow.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
so, my mother decided to sleep all of yesterday. i mean like over 12 fucking hours in bed, easily. so, i never did get her laundry done or help her take a shower, etc. i have had to do that today, along with all the other shit i had planned for today. and of course, the poems i wanted to record to put out some more SoundCloud recordings had to get pushed back to whenever the fuck i have a spare 30 minutes anytime soon. i told her yesterday i feel like her 24 hour concierge. she didn't like that comment. i told her then, don't ask me to get you water at 3:30 in the morning again then. she then understood what i was talking about.
the Yankees won yesterday at Baltimore, 6-0. they are now 66-31 on the season. they start a series at the Mets tomorrow night.
the Red Scare won their TBT game yesterday, 75-70. they play again tomorrow night.

there seems to be something that happens to me every couple of years. i'll meet someone that will seem amazing to me. we'll talk, get to know each other better, etc. etc. i'll share some links to my poetry and they will seem interested. and then the second that i think this could be legit or something more, they will vanish. into thin fucking air, like they never existed in the first place. now, what really sucks is when they ask you for help in getting published and you actually believe they are being honest. and of course, this last one was a dream woman. nearly every fucking thing i wish for in a woman and two days after really "connecting" on a genuine and honest level, gone...this is the kind of shit from the universe that makes me believe i will die old and alone. either that, or i am still being punished for some fucking thing i apparently have done. joy.
i got my laundry done and went to bed at 4:45 this morning. i was up at 7 to piss and then finally made it out of my massage chair at 9:15. i figure, i got my 4 hours, time to go.
the Yankees lost last night in Baltimore, 6-3. they couldn't get a hit with runners in scoring position to save their lives last night. hopefully, they will win this afternoon.
i did watch a few MLS games last night.

the TBT tournament gets the games at UD Arena going today. i know the Red Scare (mostly made up of Dayton alums) play this afternoon. i will hopefully be able to find that game somewhere.
i need to do mom's laundry at some point today and hopefully get a shower in as well.
it is supposed to storm here today. so, i know my arthritis will be fucking raging later on. good times.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

we had over 2.3 inches of rain yesterday. by the time i got done with the dishes last night, my back felt like a fucking elephant had decided to sleep on it. i ended up having to sleep in my massage chair last night. i got a whopping 3 hours of sleep. joy.
the Yankees whipped Boston yesterday, 13-2. they go into the All Star break with the most wins of any Yankees team ever, 64.
so the rain last night fucked with all the shows i was recording. that made for a frustrating night.
i did watch the best named rivalry game in soccer, Hell is Real, which is the name for the Columbus Crew vs. FC Cincinnati derby. Columbus won last night, 2-0.
i did watch a few other MLS games yesterday as well.
Big Brother was good last night. Pooch has to be a fucking idiot. who the fuck volunteers to go up on the block?

i will probably watch some of the MLB Home Run Derby tonight. mostly to see if it runs long so then i would have to adjust what time i record The Captain, the new ESPN documentary about Derek Jeter.
i did listen to episode 404 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:
so, i did send out 5 poems today to Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from Cristina, i will pass along the verdict.
so, mom finally decided that she wanted to update the main bathroom here in the house. i feel really comfortable with the company she is going with. and if it turns out the way i think it will, it should be an incredible upgrade to what we have.
the USWNT takes on Canada tonight in the finals of the CONCACAF women's championship. since i don't have Paramount+, i won't be able to watch the game tonight. i will follow it somehow on my phone though.
i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her doctor's appointment.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i hate these days where it is humid right from the start. it doesn't fuck with me as much as it does my mother. her Meniere's disease is truly fucking worse when it is humid. she almost becomes a narcoleptic. today she dropped her glass of diet coke in the living room. what makes it even worse, her vision is so bad she thought the coke on the carpet was glass. there's just a glimpse of the fun i have everyday.
the Yankees pissed away a 4 run lead last night and lost to Boston, 11-6. they are off tonight and start a series at home against the Reds on Tuesday night. they are 61-25 this season.

so, the trip to Kroger was interesting yesterday. i never thought it would be so damn busy on a Sunday afternoon. i waited longer in line than it took me to find what i was looking for.
i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow.
