so, i finally got a hold of someone at Humana to find out about my Medicaid cards. they said the cards were mailed out on March 21st. it will take 7 to 8 days to arrive. well, they weren't in the mail today, so i'm assuming they will be in the mail tomorrow. and then i will have to cancel my Anthem insurance (there's $600 saved) and then go to Kroger to get my new insurance into the system and pick up the pills that are ready there. i found out today that my doctors do take the new insurance, so i should be good to go on my appointment on April Fools Day. i will have to make an appointment to get the blood work done on Monday. now, if the cards aren't in the mail tomorrow, i will blow my lid, be pissed beyond belief and realize the whole system will drive me to killing myself. good times.
i did watch the Yankees game yesterday. they won over the Brewers, 4-2. hopefully, this will be a good season. Austin Wells became the first catcher and first Yankee EVER to hit a lead off home run on opening day.
i did watch a good portion of the college basketball games last night. i went 4-0.
mom got sick yesterday, so she didn't go to the podiatrist. i'm not sure she's feeling much better today. it did warm up today, so we're airing out the house for a few hours. this is what i like to call trapping all the hot air in so i can't sleep worth a shit but she will be nice and warm.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher.
i will watch some college basketball tonight as well.
the New York Rangers play tonight at Anaheim.
i did finally see A Complete Unknown today. i noticed it was on HULU so i watched it this afternoon. it was good.
i will most likely be on here in the morning, unless the Medicaid cards show up in the mail early tomorrow. then, i will be on here after that chaos is over.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
until tomorrow kids...

the Yankees start their season today at home against the Brewers. other than the ton of injuries they had during spring training, i'm hoping the Yankees get off to a good start this season.
hopefully, i will have a good season gambling. the way my life is going right now, i don't have much of a choice.

nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be flipping between the sweet sixteen college basketball games and some baseball most likely.
i have to take mom to the podiatrist today. at least that isn't a far drive.
i think mom really likes her new glasses. i think she might get to use her new sunglasses today.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. they haven't delivered the mail yet today, so if my Medicaid cards are in there, i have a shit load of things i need to do that will probably change when i will be on here tomorrow.
best of luck to everyone gambling on baseball and basketball today.

grocery shopping went ok today. thankfully, i kept it under $200. after i got done with that, i had to take mom to get her new glasses. i am really hoping that now that she can see better, she will have a bit more confidence about everything.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i have a doctor's appointment on April 1st. i need to get bloodwork done. i am patiently waiting, i mean as fucking patiently as i possibly fucking can, for my Medicaid cards to show up so i can make the fucking changes to all the shit i have going on. i need to cancel Anthem, but i'm not doing that until the cards show up. and what really pisses me off, if i have been in the system since the 1st, why don't i have any cards 24 fucking days later? makes no fucking sense possible. i got a text from Kroger today that my Rybelsus will cost $2.657.56 to fill. basically, i am now in a Leonard Cohen song where it is way more cost effective to die than continue to struggle to live.
speaking of that, mom's doctor's appointment yesterday was interesting, she is a bit of a chatty person, always her nature. so, she admitted to having thoughts of suicide, etc. one, that pissed me off as it clearly is a reflection on the job i am doing as caretaker. second, of course they want her to think about taking some more pills to perhaps lighten her mood. third, why the fuck are these appointments two fucking hours long.
we went to Arby's after the appointment and got home in time to watch Monday Night Raw. it was a really good show, once again.
The Voice was very good last night.

i think Monday Night Raw is on Netflix this afternoon. i am going to try to watch that when i get home from taking mom to her doctor's appointment.
i talked to my insurance agent this morning. i finally got the letter he was telling me to call him about back in January. i guess on March 1st, Medicaid approved my application. he sent the application in December of last year. he was happy that they accepted me as it should drive the prices down for me. i had one question though. if i got approved on March 1st and didn't know about it until March 22nd, what 3 to 4 day period am i to believe that my Medicaid card will be sent to me? he believes i should already have it, as do i. he did give the number to cancel my other insurance with. thankfully, that hasn't been paid yet for next month.
i'm not going to cancel the insurance until the cards come, that's for sure.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then...

i got my usual 4 hours of sleep last night. but, this time, i got it all at once. i didn't wake up every 45 minutes or so. amazingly, i actually felt refreshed waking up this morning. what a concept.
so, i lost 2 sweet sixteen teams yesterday. if that is all i lose and i get 14 of the 16 right, i will be happy. i doubt i will get that lucky today.
the Dayton Flyers lost yesterday at Chattanooga, 87-72. that ends the college careers of 5 players. who knows how many transfer out or in. i just know the team will look different next season.
the New York Rangers won yesterday at home over Vancouver, 5-3.
i did watch plenty of college basketball yesterday.

i really thought there was going to be some upsets last night in the NCAA tournament. sadly, that didn't really happen. at least, that is how i'm explaining going 11-7 on night 2.
Smackdown was very good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.

the Dayton Flyers play today at Chattanooga in the NIT.
the New York Rangers play this afternoon at home against Vancouver.
and of course, plenty of college basketball today.
i took mom to downtown Dayton yesterday to get some death certificates. i hadn't been downtown in years. but, eventually, muscle memory kicked in. after that, we got some McDonald's for lunch.
i wrote 2 poems last night so i could send that submission out. they both were good but quite the struggle to write. joy.

so, i went 14-2 yesterday on the college basketball games. hopefully, i can repeat that today.
there's where the good news ends. the USMNT lost to Panama last night, 1-0. Panama's only shot on goal went in basically at the death of the game. fuck me. simply not good enough and honestly, the team has a ways to go to even sniff success in the World Cup, eventually.
the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Toronto, 4-3.
i slept like shit last night. could never get the pinched nerve to calm down, so basically i slept in 45 minute shifts. joy.
i have to take mom to get some death certificates today. i love taking care of some legal shit that could have been dealt with nearly a decade ago.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher.
by this time tomorrow, the Dayton Flyers will be getting ready to play in the NIT.
so, the goal will be to get the blog done before that game tomorrow.
i think the weather is supposed to be shitty this weekend, so that will be good for watching college basketball.
i'm going to try to take a nap before i have to start driving. thankfully, it won't be a far drive.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

we have a wicked cold front getting ready to come through here tonight. it was in the 60's today. they just said on the weather that it won't make it to the 40's tomorrow. good times.
grocery shopping went pretty well today. my pinched nerve didn't fuck with me too much. now, when i got home and mom was still asleep... that was when my pinched nerve decided to be an asshole. but, i got all the groceries in and put away. i got mom a Pecan Snickers bar when i was in the checkout lane. i figured when i saw that she was still asleep, she would eat it for her breakfast at 4 in the afternoon.
the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Calgary, 2-1. if they are going to play like that the rest of the season, they will not make the playoffs.
i did watch some of both games of the First Four last night. Alabama State won with a crazy fucking ending. North Carolina beat the piss out of San Diego St.
tonight, Mount St. Mary's plays American and Xavier plays Texas.
NXT was really good last night.

i was driving home from the bank today and a poem came to me. it never fucking fails, the good ones always come when i don't have a chance to write them down. thankfully, i basically repeated it to myself and wrote it out by the time i got home.
Monday Night Raw was excellent yesterday.
The Voice was very good last night.
i hit a 10 team parlay last night on NBA games. that certainly was unexpected. i always love turning $2.10 into a little over $70.

the weather took a turn to the cold last night. that might be why i slept a little better. i woke up this morning and mom was in her massage chair sleeping. by the time i got done with breakfast, she was back in her bed. i think the health problems she has been having here recently have really gotten to her. the projectile vomiting yesterday had some end of life shit attached to it. good times.
the First Four games start tomorrow at UD Arena. if i had those tickets still, i would make a killing selling them with North Carolina, Xavier and Texas coming.

i think i got close to 4 hours last night. probably a little over 3 is more likely, but i did feel like i got some sleep when i got up this morning. i got up right before the thunderstorms were going to pound us. the tornado watch has expired but we now have a high wind advisory until tomorrow morning.
the Dayton Flyers pissed away a lead late last night and lost against St. Joe's in overtime, 73-68. that means Dayton will once again miss the NCAA tournament. but, i'm guessing they will get an invite to the NIT, which i wish they would turn down as that should be beneath at this point.
Smackdown was excellent last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
