a snowy day...

 well, it wasn't as cold as it has been, but it did snow today. just enough to coat everything again. Orkin came out this morning to check the traps in the attic. no squirrels this time. i did get a nice long nap with some ice on my back before the Manchester United game today.


Manchester United won today at home against Rangers, 2-1, in the Europa League.



the USMNT defeated Costa Rica last night, 3-0.



AEW Dynamite was pretty good last night.

i think i am going to make the pulled pork tonight that is in the fridge. i can do that in the microwave.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.


i forgot to mention yesterday that the new book is definitely a go. i heard from JPR and he loved it. he loves the title i picked for it. now, its just a matter of getting a cover, etc. etc. i'm hoping this will come out sometime in 2025. if so, i will be whoring it around as usual.

Wednesday, January 22, 2025

a day older than i was yesterday...

 well, today has been interesting. i believe Substack has become a tool of the russian bots. there is no fucking way all these single women think i'm attractive and want to fuck me. hell, even when i thought i was handsome, twenty some fucking years ago, there wasn't that many then either. but, i also want to believe that many one of these are real, an actual fan of my poetry, etc. i know, first world problems...


well, my birthday dinner last night was from Arby's. i am a sucker for their gyros sandwiches. plus, i get some vegetables that way. 


the Dayton Flyers won last night at Duquesne, 82-62.


the New York Rangers won last night at home over Ottawa, 5-0.





i had no clue there was another Hard Knocks episode on last night. it was good.



St. Denis Medical was fucking hilarious last night.


NXT was good last night.


the grocery store was a bit crazy today. mom gave me her insurance card and credit card to pay for her medicine, in case the price didn't go down from the $1,200 it said online. well, they put the new insurance in but couldn't take the price down because the insurance hasn't approved for mom to be on this medicine that she was on under the previous insurance. and, on top of that, mom's credit card got denied, so, i had to put it on mine. i can't imagine why i am in debt. i told mom about her card when i got home. she called and they told her it hadn't been used in 3 weeks, that's why they declined it. even though she bought shit online with it the night before. what a load of horse shit. i did get everything on the list.

enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Abbott Elementary, Inside the NFL and AEW Dynamite.


the USMNT takes on Costa Rica tonight. hopefully, they will win.



we are having the hardest damn time getting someone to look at our oven. it is amazing that no repair company out here does shit anymore. of course, the population has been dwindling for years and moving east or south. that's where all the damn businesses have gone.


congrats to CC Sabathia, Ichiro Suzuki and Billy Wagner on making the baseball hall of fame last night.







i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the Europa League.


i have no damn clue what we're doing for dinner tonight.


until tomorrow kids...

happy birthday to me...

 well, i started off my 49th year on this planet waking up to a leg cramp and listening to mom puke in her bathroom. i guess that pretty much sums up life. i thank everyone for the wishes and i love what mom got me for my birthday (books, a new coat, etc.). i guess you can say Ohio State got me a huge gift last night.


Ohio State defeated Notre Dame, 34-23, to win the national championship last night. 



Monday Night Raw was very good last night.



and now the flipside of my birthday. our oven won't get over 370 degrees. we can still cook on the stovetop. i tried all the troubleshooting last night. nothing worked. so, i put in a call to an appliance repair company today and left a message. i have no damn clue when or if i will get a call back. good times.


so, i'm guessing my birthday meal tonight will be me going to get something at one of the fast food places in town. exactly how i wanted to spend my 49th birthday.


i made a little vow to myself when i went to sleep at 4:45 AM this morning. my goal is to not be sleeping alone on my 50th birthday. now, i know that goes against reality of my life at the moment, but i thought putting it out into the universe couldn't hurt.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT and St. Denis Medical.


the Dayton Flyers play tonight at Duquesne.


the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Ottawa.


i will probably be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.


i was saddened to learn that Garth Hudson, the last surviving member of The Band, passed away today.



it is a balmy 3 degrees here right now. 


i hope everyone is staying warm.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.

woke up to the single digits...

 mom has all these plants in the kitchen. she woke up last night after 1 hour of sleep to see how they were and get some heat on out there. i was still up since she has the tendency to sleep walk sometimes. i told her wouldn't it make more sense to just turn the furnace up. thankfully, that logic made sense to her and she went back to sleep. one thing i can say with certainty, there will be no plants in this house once she dies.


i wrote 2 poems last night. anytime i get close to my birthday, the poems start to flow. misery and death never seem to be that far away.


the New York Rangers lost at Montreal last night, 5-4 in OT.




the conference championship games are set in the NFL. the Bills beat the Ravens last night, 27-25. Buffalo will play at the Chiefs for the AFC championship. the Eagles beat the Rams yesterday, 28-22. the Eagles will host the Commanders for the NFC championship.





The Agency was excellent last night. next week is the season finale.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game tonight for the national championship. after that, i'll probably watch some of Monday Night Raw on Netflix.


i do plan on watching some NBA games today.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.


i know i will be doing some writing today and tomorrow and probably send out some poems as well.


i hope everyone had a great weekend.


time for me to catch up some sleep.

here comes the bitter cold...

 i guess tonight it basically starts to feel like Siberia here. supposed to feel like -10 for the next couple of days. joy. 


i did write 1 poem last night. i was really hoping for more but nothing was flowing.


i did get up early enough this morning to watch Manchester United lose to Brighton, 3-1. they can't play well two games in a row at home for anything.




i'm sure i will watch the NFL playoffs today. hopefully, i will make more money than i did last night.


the Chiefs (of course) beat Houston, 23-14. Washington stunned Detroit last night, 45-31.





today, Rams at Eagles and Ravens at Bills.


the Dayton Flyers won yesterday at home against Loyola Chicago, 83-81 in OT.



the USMNT defeated Venezuela yesterday, 3-1.



the New York Rangers won last night at home against Columbus, 1-0. no goals were scored until the shootout. the Rangers play tonight at Montreal.



AEW Collision was ok last night.



Austin City Limits was very good last night.



Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.







enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Agency.


i think today is going to be mostly a day to relax and hopefully watch some sports and/or catch up on some sleep.


i will probably be on here tomorrow in the morning. i have no damn interest in watching the inauguration, so it will be before the NBA games start tomorrow.


i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

welcome to the last weekend before dystopia becomes normal again...

 i went to the bank this morning to make a deposit. no big deal, there was a little rain but thankfully it wasn't freezing rain. as i was coming out of the bank, i noticed this contractor talking to the police in the parking lot. as i got in the Highlander, the cop was leaving and this old guy comes racing out of the bank. he starts yelling at the contractor, you fucking asshole, you stole money out of my account, i should punch you in the fucking face. i was like, i guess i can wait around for a bit. the old guy was probably in his 70's, the contractor was maybe late 30's. the old guy got into the contractor's van. the contractor got out and got on his phone. i started the Highlander and left, obviously there wasn't going to be the violence i could have another book of poems about. oh well.


i did write 1 poem last night. i have 5 in the unpublished file. i'd love to get another 5 so i can send to a couple different places.


Smackdown was excellent last night.






Real Time with Bill Maher was great last night.



enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be AEW Collision, Saturday Night Live and Austin City Limits.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Columbus.


a big thank you to John Sweet. he sent me several of his books. i'm thinking of it as an early birthday gift.

you can feel the cold coming...

 i know it is supposed to get really fucking cold in the next few days. while the cold does really help my bad back, it doesn't do jack shit for my arthritis. joy. 


we have this little table outside our front door for people to leave the packages on. so, did the Amazon driver leave the 3 heavy boxes on the table today? fuck no. so, i picked them up and of course, immediately felt my back tell me to fuck off. so, i have been icing my back for most of today. i think i have got it to the point where i can at least stand long enough to cook. welcome to my life.


i did write two poems last night. i'd like to get a good batch of poems ready to go before i make my next round of submissions.


the New York Rangers won last night at Utah, 5-3.

two of my favorite humans made it out today...

 when my favorites die, i don't think of it as death. i think of it more as an escape. not many are reserved this judgment in my mind, but these two certainly are. Bob Uecker was a baseball player and announcer and honestly, one of the funniest humans to ever live. i was never a Brewers fan, but i did love listening to Bob call a game and bring back all the stories from his playing days. his Hall of Fame speech will be played forever. David Lynch was one of the most authentic humans that ever lived. his movies and tv shows gave me so much over the years. honestly, David gave me the strength to just say fuck it, and be weird. i'm sure he gave that to millions of people. both of these escapes today made me stop in my tracks. i'm just happy that i got to witness their greatness before my mind goes.





i did get my drivers license renewed today. i thought for sure i had failed the vision test. they use this font that looked like fucking hieroglyphics. but, i somehow passed. they now have the option to go 8 years between renewal dates. i paid the extra for the 8 years, wishful that before 2033 i will be living in a different state, or country, or be dead.


the Dayton Flyers played like absolute shit last night and lost at home to George Mason, 67-59. i watched the first 5 minutes and turned it off in disgust and never went back. now, they are truly fucking themselves.



after i got home from renewing my license, i got a little nap in before Manchester United played today. apparently, the players were sleeping as well as they were losing at halftime to the worst team in the Premier League, Southampton, 1-0. thankfully, Amad Diallo has decided this is going to be the season he becomes a superstar. he scored 3 goals in the second half. United won, 3-1. now, they are far from where they need to be, but at this point, i'll gladly take the 3 points and the money i won on Amad scoring today.





AEW last night was pretty good.






Abbott Elementary was pretty funny last night.


Inside the NFL was very good last night.



enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:








nothing on the DVR tonight.


the New York Rangers play tonight at Utah.


i'm sure i will watch some NBA games tonight to be honest as well.


i did get my poems to JPR last night. so far, he is pretty impressed with what he has read and how fast i got them to him. that made me very happy. i now want to get back to writing for the zines i need to send to. hopefully, those poems will be coming soon.


i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.


just like, i have no damn clue what i am making for dinner tonight.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.

well, at least the new battery works...

 the guy from AAA couldn't believe the battery he was replacing last night was 9 years old. he was like, this new one has a 3 year warranty on it. i don't know if it will last 9 years, but it should work great. and it did. the Highlander started right up. that certainly took some stress off of mom's mind. $226 well spent in my mind. the AAA guy was only here about 15 minutes total. 


the New York Rangers lost last night at Colorado, 3-2, in OT.





i did get the 3 poems i needed to write done last night. so, i have all 40 ready to go. i just need to get them sent to JPR, which i figure i will do either tonight or tomorrow.


a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:




the season finale of Hard Knocks was very good last night.



St. Denis Medical was fucking hilarious last night.



NXT was good last night.

grocery shopping wasn't that bad today, other than the prices.


now, i need to get my drivers license renewed. hopefully, the snow will hold off for a bit tomorrow so i can get that done.


i'm going to try to send the poems for the book out tonight. i seem to do my best work after midnight anymore.


i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays Southampton at home.


i believe we are going to have some leftovers for dinner tonight.


6 days until my birthday. if you want to get me something, you are more than welcome to do so.

a snowy Tuesday...

 well, here is the Highlander update. the car battery charger showed up today from Amazon. i put it on for a couple hours and the battery wasn't charged yet. i decided fuck it, i'm not going to risk this shit. so, now i have AAA coming to install a new battery in it. they are about $20 cheaper than any place around me. so, i'm hoping that will solve the battery issues and allow me to get done what i need to get done this week; grocery shopping and getting my drivers license renewed.


i did write 5 poems last night, all for the book. the last one i wrote last night brought me to tears, so i'm thinking i might name the book after that poem. i have 3 more to go to reach 40. i'm planning on getting those done tonight and then get the book manuscript out to JPR in the next day or so. he wants all 40 poems together in one file. i haven't done it that way before, so i will try to allot myself plenty of time to get that done. but, it looks like i will accomplish the goal of getting it done before my birthday on the 21st.


AAA just called and the guy will be here in 50 minutes. it's snowing and he is coming from south of town during rush hour. i completely understand.


the NFL playoff game surprised a little bit last night. i didn't think the Vikings were going to be that bad. the Rams won, 27-9. the Rams will now play at the Eagles.





Monday Night Raw was excellent last night. i am so happy for Penta.






enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT, St. Denis Medical and the season finale of Hard Knocks.


the New York Rangers play tonight at Colorado.


i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done tomorrow. it is supposed to be colder than shit tomorrow. joy.


i am not as depressed as i thought i would be today after all the bullshit of yesterday. i guess i wrote it out of me last night. helps that the poems i sent to Synchronized Chaos will be published tomorrow. of course, one of them is about the scam artist.


ok kids, i'm off to the living room to see when the guy from AAA gets to here to install the new battery.


until tomorrow...


fight the power.


fuck racism.
