the cold sunshine
it was kind of chilly today, but the sun was out. so after i got home from the bank, i went out in the yard and got some work done. i put some bird feeders out for the small birds; and changed a couple of the ones we had in front with feeders we had in the back before we got the landscape redone. once they put the final tree in, i'll put the suet feeders back out and then it should be complete.
the New York Rangers lost in OT last night at Washington, 4-3. still, they managed to get a point out of that game which makes me think they will at least be competitive most nights of the season.
NXT was really good last night.
205 Live was good last night.
the Mae Young Classic was excellent last night.
Lucha Underground was good last night.
Mr. Mercedes was fucking great last night. next week is the season finale.
American Horror Story was fucking amazing last night.
Total Divas was pretty good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Big Bang Theory, Young Sheldon and Will & Grace.
i will probably watch some of the NBA tonight. it will be really weird to see LeBron in a Lakers uniform.
i might watch some of the NFL tonight, basically for shits and giggles.
i did listen to episode 208 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:

mom picked out some really nice doors and black storm doors for the house last night. she dropped a little over 7 grand for them. she laughed and said well, it's only your inheritance. i chuckled knowing i will get nothing when she dies, much like when my father died. and i have little hope to outlive my sister, who already told me any money she leaves me will be put in a trust and will be given to me as a monthly allowance. i better figure out how to win that damn Mega Millions draw tomorrow night.
i guess the plan for tomorrow is to get some poems out in the morning and then hit the grocery store. i will probably be on here after i get back home.
that's all for me kids.

one of those mornings where death would have been a better option...
i tell everyone i possibly can, never have a bad back. i couldn't get my back loose until this afternoon. mind you, i have been up since about 4 this morning. i'm not even sure if i did sleep. i think it was more just tossing and turning. i think i may know why...
the muse and i had a really intense conversation last night about racism. part of what i feared about being stuck in a small town that has no fucking clue what diversity is, that mentality would start to slip into my mindset. and, apparently it has. using the word stupid when ignorant or hateful would have been a better choice set off an ass ripping that i sorely needed. so, maybe my tossing and turning was more or less me coming to grips with myself. i can only hope to be better after this.

the New York Rangers won in a shootout last night over Colorado, 3-2. the Rangers play tonight in Washington. i will be shocked if they actually win two in a row.
the USA Men's National Team played Peru to a 1-1 draw last night. Peru scored late to get the draw. considering who the USA is missing, i'm pretty happy with the result.
it was the 1,000th episode of Smackdown last night. i thought the show was pretty good, but you could tell it was rushed for time at the end.
The Jim Jefferies Show was hilarious last night.
The Voice was pretty good last night.
Mayans M.C. was excellent last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lucha Underground, Total Divas, Mr. Mercedes and American Horror Story. i'll watch 205 Live, NXT and the Mae Young Classic sometime tonight on WWE Network.
i did watch NXT UK this afternoon on WWE Network. it was really good.
mom had a guy come out this morning to give her an estimate on the blinds for the new windows. i think the ones she's getting are going to look really good. if all goes well, they will be installed before Thanksgiving. the guy who is coming to give us an estimate on new doors just rang the doorbell.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the bank.
there's fucking snow in the forecast. they aren't talking any accumulations, but fuck me.
mom's doing well after her eye surgery. i'm hoping the left eye goes just as well next week.
that's all for me kids. i now have to go out and see how much mom is going to spend on doors.

a million things to do with no time to think
this is one of those days where i have a million fucking things to do and not nearly enough time to get all this shit done. thankfully, mom's eye surgery went well. she was right when she said it would take longer to get set up than the actual process. she was a little nervous, but thankfully she should be less nervous next week when she has the left eye done. i wrote 7 poems while i was there. i typed those up this afternoon. i think they are pretty good. that gives me 16 poems for the month.
The Voice was very good last night. i'm so happy they have started the Battle Rounds.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, The Jim Jefferies Show, Mayans M.C. and The Voice.

on top of all that, i have to vacuum the house and round up all the trash and get that down to the curb, here and next door.
on top of all that, i had to run out to the local grocery store to get some chicken gravy because mom forgot to put it on the list and then forgot to tell me to get it over the weekend. joy.
so yeah, i'm a little busy. all part of actually living i suppose.
i have no damn clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. it will most likely be after the WWE airs NXT UK on WWE Network. wrestling at 3 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. sure, why not.
that's all for me kids. until tomorrow...

one dreary Monday...
i'm not sure if i have seen the sun in the last 48 hours or so. today was just fucking dreary beyond belief.
i did do a little poetry work yesterday. i believe i know where my next 23 poems are going. i'd love to get that done sometime this week.
i did watch plenty of football yesterday. most of the results i liked, especially the ones in the Saints division.
America to Me was very good last night.
The Deuce was excellent last night.
Camping was pretty good, although i can see why people would hate it.
Last Week Tonight was hilarious as usual.
Shameless was fucking great last night. the last 10 minutes are exactly why i love this series.
Kidding was great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and The Voice. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
we got out of mom's doctor's appointment a little sooner than we expected. so, there's a Dollar Tree not far from where my physical therapy is. we were able to waste 30 minutes or so there before we left to my therapy. we only spent $11 at Dollar Tree, so that's not bad.
my physical therapy session was good. no drama like the week before. my therapist said if my back continues to get better this week, next week might be my last session. my back is definitely not as tight as it was the week before, so i'm trending in the right direction.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after mom's eye surgery. i think the surgery is supposed to only be a few minutes long. they are taking a laser to the scar tissue that has formed where her cataracts were. good times. one eye this week and the other eye next week.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i should have known as soon as i saw Gus Johnson was calling the game...
i remember years ago, Bill Simmons wrote an article where he said if you wanted to be entertained by a football game, watch any game Gus Johnson was calling. i think that was over a decade ago. sadly, it's still true. so, when i turned on the Ohio State game yesterday and saw that Gus was doing play by play, i knew what to expect. the game was incredibly tight until about the fourth quarter. Ohio State eventually defeated Minnesota, 30-14. most of the game was much, much tighter than the final score.
the New York Rangers lost to Edmonton yesterday 2-1. yet another shitty game from the officials. oh well.
Austin City Limits was really good last night. i could listen to John Prine for hours and hours.
Saturday Night Live was pretty good last night.
ROH was good last night.
i did write 5 poems last night. they are pretty dark and good. that gives me 9 for the month. i need to write some more and get another round of submissions ready to go soon.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Deuce, Camping, Last Week Tonight, America to Me, Shameless and Kidding.
i might actually try to catch up on some sleep today.
i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. mom has a doctor's appointment and then right after that i have my physical therapy appointment.
my back is doing much better. the stretches and exercises the therapist showed me have really helped.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday is even better.

thankfully, nothing is frozen
i was kind of worried about the new landscaping last night. thankfully, there was just enough wind that nothing froze overnight. it did get fucking cold though.
the muse and i had a fascinating conversation this morning. it's pretty obvious why i think of her as my best friend.
NJPW was excellent last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was pretty good last night.

Pod Save America was good last night.

i'm sure at some point today i will watch some other college football games and maybe get some writing done.
i'll probably be on here tomorrow in the morning. given that the New Orleans Saints are on their bye week this Sunday, it will be a much less stressful one for me, that's for sure.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

of course this couldn't have happened 20 years earlier
so, i was in the grocery store and this very attractive white woman, i'm guessing in her late 20's, looked me up and down and smiled. i smiled and noticed her boyfriend, a black guy who was around 6'6 and 300 lbs., had his back turned. in my head, i was like this bitch is going to get me killed. now, 20 years earlier and i wouldn't have minded getting into a fight over a woman, mostly because my ego was still cocky enough and arthritis hadn't set in. but in 2018, those days are gone forever. after i smiled i just kept moving, never even looking back. i'm sure there will be poems though.
the grocery store was fucking crazy today. and of course, i had a scroll of shit to buy and gift cards as well. between gas, a prescription, gift cards and food, i was fucking shocked i kept it under $200.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
The Big Bang Theory was pretty funny last night.
Young Sheldon was very funny last night.
Will & Grace was hilarious last night.
the New York Rangers won in OT last night, 3-2 over San Jose. first win of the season for the Rangers. first win of David Quinn's NHL coaching career. The King was brilliant in goal. and i think i have a favorite new young player. Brett Howden is fucking amazing.
the USA men's national team lost to Colombia, 4-2 last night. the USA actually had the lead in the second half, so that's encouraging. with all the injuries they have currently, i wasn't expecting a victory, that's for sure.

and finally, some poems arrived...
so around 2 in the morning last night, i decided to get out the notebook and write. i ended up with 4 poems, my first of the month. i think they are pretty good. i'm hoping there will be more poems in the next few days.
the weather finally cooled down here. the house is down to 67 degrees. it fucking finally feels like fall.

the New York Rangers will be looking for their first win of the season tonight at home against San Jose. i really hope they do win as i could use a fucking drink.
the USA men's national team plays a soccer friendly against Colombia tonight. i really hope they win as well.
on top of all that, the New York Giants take on the Philadelphia Eagles tonight as well. i'll probably be flipping between everything during the commercials of the TV shows.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store.
i need to go fill out my absentee ballot application and do another round of back exercises. between that and racing to the toilet today, i should be losing some weight.
have a good one kids.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

it's a brand new face
i flipped back to the game last night just as Aaron Judge was leading off the bottom of the 9th inning with a walk. i stayed glued to the game and experienced nearly every emotion i could by the end of it. the Yankees lost last night to Boston, 4-3. Gary Sanchez missed a walk off grand slam by about 5 feet or so. the sad thing about the Yankees this year was they were way too reliant on the fucking home run. if they simply knew how to have situational hitting, they would be the team moving on. instead, i had to look at video of Boston living it up in Yankee Stadium. talk about a bitter fucking taste.
so with the Yankees eliminated and the New York Rangers still looking for their first win, it was time for a change. so, i broke out the clippers and holy shit, it's a brand new face. i took mom to get a haircut today. when i sat down to get mine, i told the woman just make me look different than when i walked in.
we'll see how long the "normal" goatee lasts.
Smackdown was really good last night.
The Jim Jefferies Show was hilarious last night.
The Voice was pretty good last night.
Mayans M.C. was excellent last night.
the finale of Mr Inbetween dragged last night, right up until the finish. the finish was great.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lucha Underground, Mr. Mercedes, American Horror Story and Total Divas. i'll watch NXT, 205 Live and the Mae Young Classic sometime tonight on WWE Network.
i might do a little writing here today as well. i mean, i don't sleep worth a shit anymore, so i might as well make my insomnia fucking productive. and i think i have my next poem for my SoundCloud recordings.
so yeah, never a dull moment in the life of a crazy person.
i had a fascinating dream about the muse last night. i sent her a message about it. i haven't heard back. i believe Tom Petty was correct, the waiting is the hardest part.
they have most of the landscaping finished. it looks really good. we're just waiting on another tree that was ordered to show up. and then once that gets planted, it's all done.
my thoughts are with everyone getting pummeled by Hurricane Michael.
Si crees en Dios, ahora sería un buen momento para pedir algo.

a white hot rage...
i pride myself on not being late for shit. so, when i showed up for my physical therapy session yesterday 25 minutes early, i figured it was a good thing. let's just say, my life would have been better if i would have been only 10 minutes early. so, i had all my paperwork already filled out. i had my driver's license and my insurance card all ready to go. and i had my credit card ready to pay the $60 for the session. there was this woman at the other window making an appointment. i paid no attention to her. i got my receipts and sat down in the waiting room. the woman that was at the other window started to walk out and then stopped and looked at me and said i thought was your car. how is the landscaping coming along? they really took all of that down. good luck, good seeing you... you know i try my fucking best to be positive and do the right thing. i really, really want to enjoy life. but there are moments constantly that will remind me, i don't get to live that life. that woman that was talking to me was the woman who molested me as a child. i'm not sure any of you can imagine just how fucking pissed i was while sitting there stewing in my hate for the next 25 fucking minutes before my appointment. i tried deep breaths, i tried counting to a million, i tried to picture the perfect way to die... nothing calmed me down. i'm not sure if any of the physical therapists picked up on it or not. by the time i went back for my appointment, i really didn't fucking care. the physical therapist i saw was pretty good. he believes it's a muscle problem in my back. the way i explained it to him and the way he told me what he thought, i tend to believe his diagnosis. basically i have a back muscle that contracted and never bothered to expand back out. so, he worked on my back for about 20 minutes or so. and then he ran electricity through it for 15 minutes. he did show me a couple stretches to do that should help my middle back. so far, they have. i see him again next Monday. hopefully, i won't be as fucking pissed as i was yesterday. on the ride home, it seemed like every fucking song was something that reminded me of some fucking situation in my life. the temptation to get the Highlander up to 100 and see how quickly death would arrive was so fucking tempting. i figure one of these nights i'm going to have to write and just pour it all out again on the page. that's part of the reason why i fear writer's block. if that ever cripples me, i don't have much choice with what will come next.
i woke up this morning and my back was sore, but it was more like the good sore. after i get this done, i'm going to have a nice long icing session, that's for sure.
the New York Yankees were absolutely fucking awful last night, from the manager down to the fucking players. they lost to Boston 16-1. and honestly, it didn't feel like it was that close. thank fucking god the Saints were on so i could watch something else. the Yankees are playing for their season tonight, so it should be interesting to see what happens. if they lose, i know one thing for sure, my face is going to look completely different.
the New Orleans Saints defeated Washington last night, 43-19. Drew Brees set the record for the most passing yards in NFL history. the Saints have a bye week coming this week. with the injuries they had last night, it's good timing. Drew now has 399 touchdown passes. they tried so damn hard for him to get to 400 last night. oh well, it will happen in the next game.
Monday Night Raw was really good last night.
The Voice was good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, The Jim Jefferies Show, Mayans M.C., The Voice and the season finale of Mr Inbetween.
the landscaping is going pretty good. i really like the stone mom picked out for this project. i think it's going to look really good when they get done.
i can't believe how fucking hot it is for the 9th day of October. i guess we really are down to two seasons anymore, hot and cold.
i need to go ice my back down and then do the trash here and next door.
that's all for me kids.

and here comes the pain...
i woke up this morning with my back aching. it must know what is coming this afternoon. i haven't done physical therapy in 10 years. i haven't been to the place i am going to today. i'll be interested to see how my anxiety does today.
the New York Rangers lost again yesterday at Carolina, 8-5. it seemed like every damn time the Rangers got a lead they would turn around and blow it. the defense was fucking putrid yesterday.
The Deuce was really good last night.
the season finale of Ballers was pretty good last night.
Last Week Tonight was fucking hilarious as usual.
America to Me was excellent last night.
The Family Business: Trump and Taxes was a look into the behind the scenes of the New York Times article. i think i know why so many dumb asses love Trump. they want to be rich and never pay taxes either. the sad thing is i guarantee the whole damn family is still cheating the system and are proud of it.
Shameless was great last night.
Kidding was dark as ever last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Voice. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for some of the evening.
the New York Yankees play Game 3 of the ALDS tonight at home against Boston. i really hope the Yankees win tonight and put Boston on the brink of elimination.
the New Orleans Saints play tonight at home against Washington. Drew Brees needs 201 yards tonight to pass Peyton Manning for the most passing yards in NFL history. i hope he does it in a victory.
my physical therapy today is at 4 PM. i'm pretty sure i know where i am going. i'm interested to see what i will be doing. i figure it will be similar to my mother's physical therapy.
i hope everyone had a great weekend. best of luck to everyone enjoying an extended weekend today.

response from The Dope Fiend Daily...
i heard back from Scott at The Dope Fiend Daily on my poetry submission from a couple days ago. my poems "to live on the scraps", "a thousand yards away" and "an old soul begging to escape" have been accepted for publication.
apparently, 5 hours of sleep is all i really need...
i know the plan was to get some sleep at some point yesterday. so, when i was still up at 3 in the morning, i only could laugh. i went to bed and woke up 5 hours later, almost feeling refreshed. well, i've got shit to do today, so that's all i'm going to get.
yesterday was one of those days where i love being a sports fan, although i am certain it will send me to an early grave.
Manchester United was down 2-0 yesterday and i really wasn't happy. sadly, i wasn't surprised either. and then around the 70th minute, it all changed. United started to finally get some results for their reckless abandon they were playing with. Mata scored. 6 minutes later Martial scored. and then holy shit, in the 90 minute, Alexis scored. well, well, well, i didn't see a 3-2 win coming at halftime, that's for sure.
Ohio State played exactly how i feared they would yesterday. thankfully, it didn't last all game. they allowed Indiana to hang around, but eventually buried them in the 4th quarter, winning 49-26.
the New York Rangers lost last night at Buffalo, 3-1. yet another game where they played well enough to win. but, they ran into a hot goalie and more shitty officiating. joy. the Rangers play this afternoon at Carolina.
the New York Yankees broke out the long ball last night and defeated Boston, 6-2. Aaron Judge hit a mammoth shot in the first and Gary Sanchez hit 2 home runs, including one that went 479 feet. he's the first Yankee catcher to hit 2 home runs in a playoff game since Yogi Berra in 1956. the Yankees are off today and play Game 3 in the Bronx on Monday night. they know now if they just win the home games, they will advance.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.
ROH was really good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Deuce, the season finale of Ballers, Last Week Tonight, America to Me, Shameless, Kidding and The Family Business: Trump and Taxes.
since the New Orleans Saints play tomorrow night, today will mostly be a laundry day for me.
i suppose i should wear some clean clothes to my physical therapy appointment tomorrow.
i will probably be on here early tomorrow.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.
