You don't ask tenants to pay on time; they pay or they don't stay.  It's a business.  While I respect your tenants right to be wrong and stupid, I wouldn't let him be so on my time.  Today, right now, issue him a Notice To Quit.  Let him know that he will so be "leaving these fu...ing house son of a bi..h" and that the process is now in place to legally do so. And, issue one every time that he is even one day late.  Don't call him, don't take his abuse, just enforce your lease.  I also recommend that you do an inspection sometime in between rent payments; give legal minimum notice and take a witness with you.  It's your ball, your court - so take your power back and act from a position of strength.  Show him how a "son of a bi..h" owner just kicked his late paying, immature butt!  

As they say in Texas, COWBOY UP!
