i might have got almost 5 hours of sleep last night. some weird dreams, but that's nothing new. the grocery shopping went pretty well today. i got really lucky with getting gas today at Kroger. i had $1 off to use, so i ended up getting gas for $1.65 after that $1 off. as soon as i got done filling up, the price changed to $3.09. add in that the woman running the cash register today didn't scan my Dial Body Wash... the little victories mean so much these days.
The Voice last night was really good.
both episodes of St. Denis Medical were hilarious last night.
NXT was very good last night.
the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Winnipeg, 6-3.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite, The Masked Singer, Abbott Elementary and Inside the NFL.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against Ball St. Dayton is 16.5 point favorites tonight. hopefully, they win by more than that.
it is supposed to rain here tonight, so i'm really hoping Dayton wins to temper the misery that will be going on in this house of arthritis.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get mom's eyedrops from Kroger. they of course texted her 2 hours after i was done shopping saying they were ready. good times.
i guess the convicted felon president elect is only going to select those that kiss his fat ass the best to be in his cabinet. i'm fully convinced now that he's going to try to fuck the constitution and just stay in the job until he dies. i guess democracy was a hell of an experiment. as Burroughs said years ago, humans are the disease. we will fuck anything up given enough chances to do so. what i am really going to love is when 70 million people start bitching that their taxes went up. and what a joy this dystopian nightmare will be with no regulations and no checks and balances.
i will hopefully write some poems tonight. i have a few ready to go and a place in mind to send them.
i need to get going on dinner, so that's all for me today kids...
until tomorrow...

so i woke up this morning after 3 hours of sleep and had to take a shit. that started a morning that was a comedy of errors. by 10 AM, i had taken 4 shits, had breakfast and was in the process of trying to get some more sleep. i always remember Dan Soder's joke about if you want to get good sleep, have a big meal. i did make it to Kroger this afternoon to get my prescription. it was sunny but cold today.

it started raining last night. i could feel it in my bones long before it started here. after 3 hours of sleep, it was still raining this morning. it is supposed to stop here soon. i'll believe that when i see it.
Ohio State whipped Purdue yesterday, 45-0.

i heard back from Cristina at Synchronized Chaos on my poetry submission from earlier today. my poems "all their little trophies", "the day of the dead", "games on the radio", "election day" and "haven't found a sheep yet" have been accepted for publication.
i just sent out 11 poems. 3 each to The Beatnik Cowboy and Yellow Mama; 5 to Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.
i always love the days where the back pain stops me dead in my tracks and i can do nothing but put ice on it and hope it fucking works. that was pretty much my morning today. good times.
i did get mom to the hair salon on time. she got her hair washed (both of her shoulders hurt so bad most days it is harder for her to do it; can't bring herself to asking me to help) and got a few dashes of purple in it. as i was waiting, i wrote 4 poems. i typed those up when we got back home. i should have some poems to send out tomorrow to more than one place, thankfully.
NXT last night was excellent.

well, i guess over 70 million people have no qualms electing a convicted felon president of the united states. that is something i never thought i would type, but to be honest, isn't really fucking surprising. we're still a racist nation. we're still a sexist nation. i highly doubt our better angels ever change those fucking things either. the muse texted me last night in tears, knowing that she will probably have no choice but to leave this country for good. i listened to my mother cry herself to sleep last night. i wrote 2 poems and was pissed but ready for the conflict. one thing i am is very adaptable. if the country is going to unravel into chaos, i will make sure i can find a way to thrive on it. as i told my mother today, her stocks and 401K will be just fine now. don't be sad, be hopeful you make enough money that we don't have to worry about politics or bullshit ever again. i, an obvious anti-capitalist, have never given two shits about money. if i have it, great. if i don't, fine. it never floated my boat.
now, the convicted felon did tell everyone he won before the number was official, like i said he would. but, this time around, i get the feeling the votes Joe Biden had didn't exist. i feel like a good number of Karens voted for Trump just to piss people off so they could laugh. i'm pretty damn sure that a good number of young men... young, dumb and full of cum, voted for the felon. they won't be happy when they have to find a state that they can take their girl to get an abortion. now, in the grand scheme, the felon comes in as a lame duck, as he can't run again. my fear, is he never plans on leaving the position. he's quipped so many times how he appreciates China and their lifetime president, i get the feeling he might just test the willingness of everyone to just say fuck it to the constitution and the old you will never have to vote again line actually comes true. i'm not that cynical, but, i know how demented people go about their lives. there is no "normal" anymore.
now, for the democrats, please learn one fucking lesson. give up the identity politics and get back to the meat and potatoes shit that works. it is always the fucking economy. no one unless they were a political junkie, even knew any of the good Biden actually did. i saw way too many good democrats lose last night. hell, Ohio has gone so far to the right that we might as well be in the south.
ok, enough fucking politics for now.
the grocery store was quiet today. i get the feeling that most people were just pissed. thankfully, i had enough coupons that i got everything on the grocery list for under $250. it would have been closer to $300 if not. i can't wait to see the prices when the tariffs come.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:

so, i got to the Toyota dealership on time, amazingly. i'm not a morning person anymore. after about 45 minutes, they told me what was up. the check engine light was not about the hose. i guess the thermostat is shot. and a speed censor needs replaced. they didn't have all the parts there, of course. so, at first they wanted me to just leave it and they'd get me a rental, etc. but, i wasn't interested in that since my back is being an asshole these days. so, i get to take the Highlander back on November 15th and they will fix it then. all in all, it should be (hopefully) less than $700 for everything. i already paid over $150 of that today. so, that was my morning.
i hope everyone has voted. if you have voted for the criminal, i'm not really interested in your thoughts or opinions. trust me, i do understand voting for the lesser of two evils. and sure, if i was a billionaire, i probably wouldn't want to pay taxes. but i'm not, and i vote accordingly. plus, given my years of history studying Russian propaganda, etc, it is real simple to pick up on it in the political ads, especially on the right. it is always about fear and a thinly veiled message of hate and discord. sadly, Ohio is so far to the fucking right now, there is no damn reason to watch election results tonight. i can already tell you what will happen. Trump will declare himself the winner tonight and warn that if the results change by morning, which they will, the fix is in and it was rigged. and then we get the fucking circus again, except he won't be doing this from the oval office this time. and honestly, he told everyone the plan the other day when he said he never should have left in 2020. what the fuck do you think he is planning this time? i honestly thought we fought a fucking revolution so we wouldn't have kings and queens here. or maybe the history i learned isn't what is taught these days.
ok, enough fucking politics...
The Voice was very good last night.
What We Do in the Shadows was fucking insane last night.

before i get to the absolute shit show the New Orleans Saints have become... i saw last night as i was trying to go to sleep that Quincy Jones had died. being the age i am, i definitely knew who Quincy Jones was. that man probably had one of the most amazing music careers of anyone that has ever existed. for anyone younger that isn't aware, that is one rabbit hole you should definitely lose yourself in.
the New Orleans Saints lost yesterday at Carolina, 23-22. today, they (finally) fired the head coach. hopefully, they blow up everything and finally start the fuck over.
Manchester United and Chelsea played a 1-1 draw yesterday.
the New York Rangers won yesterday at home against the Islanders, 5-2.

college basketball started back up today. the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against St. Francis (PA). Dayton is favorited by 25.5 points, so i think they should win tonight. i'll probably watch some of the game on ESPN+.
i should be on here tomorrow after i take the Highlander to the mechanic. i'm guessing the check engine light is on for the reason it has came on the last several times. there is a hose that comes loose in the engine that should never come loose. they tried to fix it the last time so it wouldn't happen again. that was i think 5 or 6 months ago. hopefully, that is it and there will be no charge.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

my sleep has been shitty since i was in high school. i'm pretty sure i have gone well over 30 years of being sleep deprived. so, springing ahead or falling back with the clocks really doesn't do much for me. i got just about 4 hours of sleep last night. par for the course.
Ohio State won at Penn State yesterday, 20-13. considering they were down 10-0 in the first quarter, i'm really happy they won.

if not, it will be sometime after the game, probably while the New Orleans Saints are boring me to death.

i will be so damn happy when election day gets here. mostly because that means all these fucking political ads will go away. i wish there was a button where you could just say i have already voted, i don't need to see this shit now. i only mention this because i overheard a man in the waiting room today bitching about politics with his daughter. i got the feeling he was a war veteran and pro Harris and the daughter was one of these Karens that is pro criminal running on the right. luckily, i brought pen and paper with me today. so, i wrote 2 poems today in that waiting room. i typed them up this afternoon when i got home. had to go to the bank today, as well as McDonalds for mom's frozen Coke and to Kroger to pick up some prescriptions.
