 i am hoping this will be a pretty quiet and good Saturday. other than vacuuming the house, all i really want to do today is get in my massage chair and ice down my bad back.

happy birthday to my mother...

 well, since the last time i was on here, some things have happened... i wrote 4 poems yesterday while mom was in her physical therapy session. i typed those up eventually last night. they are pretty good. on the way to lunch after physical therapy, saw a really good car accident. two women, both on the phone, in a construction zone. the jokes write themselves people. mom wanted to have lunch at Lee's. she got a free lunch for her birthday. we ate in the restaurant. it wasn't bad. got back home and was going to go to Kroger last night for mom's pills. she said go on Friday instead. ah, the beauty of hindsight...


so, i got up this morning later than i wanted and put on some cinnamon rolls for mom's birthday breakfast. i had to go to Lowe's to get the garage door lubricant i ran out of. mom wanted me to find her a snake plant. they had everything but that there. after that, i went to Big Lots and found some hockey cards. then, i went to Dollar General and found some baseball cards. after that, i went to the bank to deposit my check. and then finally, i went to Kroger. i had to get mom's pills, a birthday cake and some hand soap. and while i was waiting in line, i got her some alcohol for her birthday. she texted me as i was getting ready to leave the parking lot, wondering where i was. i figured she would enjoy some time alone.


the USMNT defeated Mexico last night, 3-0. the game was ugly, which i was kind of expecting as Mexico has fallen way behind the USA now in soccer. 4 red cards in the game. the USA will play Canada Sunday for the CONCACAF Nations League title, but they will be without McKinnie and Dest. plus, i wasn't thrilled with the news last night that they were hiring the old coach back again.











NJPW was really good last night.




enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Painting with John. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.


the Yankees start a series tonight at Boston.


i have no clue what mom wants for dinner tonight. problem is, i don't think she knows what she wants either. so, yeah...


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


i hope everyone has a great weekend.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


stay off the fucking streets.


get the fucking shot.

now back to the usual summer pattern...

 usually, what will happen in the summer is it will start out cool, warm up real fast and then you'll have a chance of thunderstorms in the late afternoon or early evening. rinse and fucking repeat and you have the summers in the midwest. here lately, it is more likely to add in the chance that those storms will get super big or super violent. there is the beauty of a couple generations not believing climate change is real. good times.


the New York Yankees lost last night at the Mets, 4-3, in 10 innings. they are off tonight and start a series at Boston tomorrow night.






AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.


Mayans M.C. was great last night.




enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NJPW.


i will hopefully write some poems today while mom is in physical therapy.


i'm not sure if mom wants to go out to eat today or tomorrow. her birthday is tomorrow.


i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow in the morning.


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




the USMNT takes on Mexico tonight in the CONCACAF Nations League semifinal.





i hope everyone has a great day.

so it was a nail in the tire...

 when the guy told me they pulled a nail out from the left rear tire of the Highlander that was probably two inches long, my mind started racing back trying to figure out where the fuck did i run over a nail. thankfully, i was only at the dealership for 40 minutes. they got the nail out, fixed the tire and it cost me a little over $20. definitely better than what i was fearing.


congrats to Las Vegas on winning the Stanley Cup. they destroyed Florida last night, whipping them 9-3.





the New York Yankees won last night at the Mets, 7-6. hopefully, they will win again tonight.






NXT was excellent last night.











Deadliest Catch was good last night.


Don't Forget the Lyrics was pretty good last night.


Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge was excellent last night.



Dark Side of the Ring was pretty depressing last night.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:

i need to make dinner tonight. i think mom wants some pasta.


i need to go to Rite Aid to get my prescription. i think i'm going to do that as soon as i'm done with this. i know tomorrow, i'll have to get mom's prescriptions sometime in the afternoon.


i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow as i think mom has physical therapy tomorrow.


until then kids...

just enough rain to make me miserable...

 as many of you know by now, i hate having arthritis. and on days like these, i feel like i am just dragging. but, when you get so fucking used to pain, it always just seems like you are going through the motions. good times.


i did write 4 poems yesterday while mom was in physical therapy. i typed those up and i think they are pretty good. i need to write some more so i can get another batch of poems out to the world.


Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.



















congrats to the Denver Nuggets on winning the NBA title last night. they defeated Miami, 94-89.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch, Don't Forget the Lyrics, Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge and Dark Side of the Ring.


the Yankees start a series tonight at the Mets. given that Judge and Alonso aren't playing in these games, it takes a bit of the luster off.


Game 5 of the Stanley Cup final is tonight. Las Vegas is up 3-1 and will have a chance to win the cup at home.



i got an appointment for tomorrow afternoon to take the Highlander in. the air keeps going down in that left rear tire, so i know there is a hole somewhere in it. hopefully, they can just patch it. i don't want to go through the circus of getting a new tire again, unless they actually have one there this time.


so, the plan i suppose is to get some of the grocery shopping done before i have to take the Highlander in. and then, fingers crossed, i can get the rest of the shopping done after the appointment.


the New York Rangers finally hired a new coach. i'm not exactly thrilled, but i do trust Chris Drury. so, time will tell.








i need to get the trash picked up and figure out dinner tonight. so, that's all for me kids.


i will be on here tomorrow sometime after the circus is over. i'm preparing for the worst so that hopefully everything goes smoothly tomorrow.

stop laughing.

doing laundry during a tornado warning...

 i think i had just got my first load of laundry going in the washer and my iPhone went nuts. when i saw it was for a tornado warning, i thought back to 4 years ago when the last one hit around here. thankfully, it was already past us when the experts on tv were saying the tornado has to be here. we got 1.5 inches of rain in just about 45 minutes. on the bright side, the smell of smoke is gone from the air. and i did get my laundry done, eventually.


the New York Yankees lost last night to Boston, 3-2, in 10 innings. they are off tonight and start a series tomorrow night at the Mets.





i did watch a good portion of the NASCAR race, mostly because the guy i bet to win was leading the race. 



VICE was very good last night.



the series finale of Ghosts of Beirut was excellent last night.



i really wanted to like The Idol. after the second episode, i have really no interest in watching the show anymore.


enjoy some music:

and now, rain...

 i wanted to get up early this morning, but around 8 AM, i felt like i had a knot in my back the size of a gorilla. so, getting out of bed wasn't an option. i eventually got out of bed around 11. i think it is supposed to rain on and off for the rest of the day and night. joy.


the New York Yankees won last night over Boston, 3-1. hopefully, they will win the series tonight.






i did watch the Champions League final yesterday. fucking Manchester City won, 1-0, over Inter Milan.

one of those days where the back just won't cooperate with me...

 thankfully, it doesn't happen too often, but i do have days where no matter how much i stretch or ice or whatever, my back won't loosen up for anything. these become the days where i slip down a rabbit hole on YouTube and just waste the hours away. fun times.


i did write 4 poems yesterday while mom was doing her physical therapy. i typed those up and really liked them. i will hopefully do a little writing this weekend as well.

like living in the apocalypse...

 so, the wildfires are fucking up everything. the haze here is bad enough. the scenes from New York are straight out of a fucking movie.




i was saddened when i heard the news about The Iron Sheik dying today. he was absolutely one of my favorite bad guys of all time. thanks for one hell of a ride.




the New York Yankees lost last night to the White Sox, 3-2. their game tonight was postponed because of the smoke from the wildfires. they will play a doubleheader tomorrow.




the power went out last night for about 10 minutes or so. that was a bit fucking crazy, especially since there was no storm going on at the time or anything.


NXT was very good last night.










Dark Side of the Ring was about Magnum T.A. last night. you talk about a what could have been story. i remember watching him as a kid and being crushed when he had his accident and never could wrestle again.

i am going to try to be on here in the morning tomorrow. i believe mom has physical therapy in the afternoon, if she is feeling up to it.


i need to get going and get dinner started.
