The Bitter Body Swap

A little while ago, I was telling my son about the glamorous life of being an adult and he was like, "Dad, I totally want to trade. I want to go to work, and you can go to my school!  You can be the kid and I can be an adult. You can do boring … Continue reading The Bitter Body Swap

Things you are Bitterly Sick Of (Besides my Blog)

I'm sure some people are going to claim they had a good holiday and they got everything they wanted and did everything they wanted and got along so well with their families or had some good time away.  But as you know, being bitter is about thinking about things in a whole different way than … Continue reading Things you are Bitterly Sick Of (Besides my Blog)

Bitter Rivalry of the Week: Day v. Night

  Annnd...now the awkward season of "Did I accomplish anything this year?" begins.  At least for people that actually have goals and stuff.  Those people are probably hard at work with guilt and regret and suffering because they didn't live up to goals.  And scheming is taking place to start new goals. That must cause … Continue reading Bitter Rivalry of the Week: Day v. Night

All I want for Christmas…

    When someone tries to teach me something, they need to bring visual aids.  If it is math, I need some story problems.  If it is science, I need a telescope.

Taking over the World

It was 1998 when I knew I wanted to take over the world.  Pinky and the Brain inspired it. (If a couple of lab rats can almost do it, I certainly could with my human like size.) My best friend from college and I always talked about it and planned it.  We would start slowly with him … Continue reading Taking over the World

The Bitter Gauntlet

I was born in the 70's, which means...I grew up in the 80's. If you've read the history books about the 80's (or lived in them) it was a colorful time...literally. Colors that no other decade would even touch (like neon anything), fabrics no other decade would wear (parachute pants?), and hairstyles no other decade … Continue reading The Bitter Gauntlet

Unstable Friday Giftures

I've been thrown off kilter this week, because for some reason I decided to take the whole week but Friday off.  Getting up for one day of work is exhausting and I think after already 20 minutes of work I have done already, I'm already ready for the weekend.  Remind me next time to just … Continue reading Unstable Friday Giftures

The Bitter Safety Dance

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret about me.  Listen closely now.  Ready? I have a little trouble with authority.

Remove your tongue from the … Continue reading The Bitter Safety Dance

The Bitter RadiNo Disney

I do a lot of things in my car that I don't do normally do otherwise.  I scream out loud, I sing, I lay down on a seat instead of a couch, I run from the cops, etc.  There is just something about having a heavy metal layer of protection around you that allows you … Continue reading The Bitter RadiNo Disney

Bitter Rivalry of the Week: Scrooge vs. The Grinch

We are in the middle of a huge flood.  Batten down the hatches and start weatherproofing your house.  The cheesy Hallmark, ABC Family, Lifetime, UP Network and all other channel onslaught of Christmas specials are coming.

Getting it Wrong Bitter Friday Giftures

  I was a walking disaster yesterday.  All my hair fell out (I got a hair cut), I got stuck to the couch (gravity can be such a bother sometimes) and I cut my thumb while losing a fight to my eight year old.  Some days are just more bitter than others. If my life … Continue reading Getting it Wrong Bitter Friday Giftures

There's a lot of words that can describe the little movie franchise that could.  Fast. Furious.  Fast and Furious.  2 Fast 2 Furious.  Fast 5. Furious 7. The list of ways to describe it are endless.  Somehow I missed this one in the theaters, but I saw it on Blu-Ray this weekend. Let me put … Continue reading Bitter Ben’s Movie Review: Furious 7
