Once again another birthday came and went and I got nothing. I don’t know what everyone’s problem is, but I’m getting a little sick of my son having a birthday and no one getting me any presents. It’s kind of selfish that everyone pays attention to him and not me all day. I mean they drew pictures of him at school, they showered him with praise and adoration and my folks call MY cell phone and didn’t even want to talk to ME. What kind of prideful, self centered person wants to have a whole day centered on them? What kind of person wants to take the attention off me, even for one second, to celebrate how humble and great I am? Talk about a spoiled brat. I should send him to his room right now, but he selfishly went to school, just to avoid punishment I guess. While he leaves me at home to play video games and watch Netflix all day. Some people I swear. All I have to say is he better not hijack Christmas or I’m not going to let him go to my work again and do my job again.
Please…
Alright, seriously…
Alright you know…
Alright, now I’m getting a little sick of…
Okay, you dudes over there…
And if you don’t quit fooling around…
Alright, this birthday is turning out…
Before it gets to be too big of a disaster…
If you do end up jumping the shark…
Just stop being such a party pooper…
Seriously…
Or you are going…
Alright, well, I’m going to go pout in the corner and be bitterly upset all day because of the lack of gifts and non attention I got all day yesterday and you all can go to your rooms and think about how sorry you should be and what you are going to do to make up for your clear misunderstanding about how much you should be paying attention to me on other people’s attention. Or at least paying me. Geesh.
ARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH
Bitter Bad Birthday Celebration Ben
Are you sure your name isn’t Donald…as in The Donald? not McDonald
Cats are fantastic furry friends. I have seven of them so I know!
Never a dull moment and they let you have all the birthday cake.

I seem to make people as bitter as the Donald. Wow, how do you handle so many cats? I bet there are never dull moments.

Never a dull moment…if there is a dull one, you have to get up to find out why. Usually a creature they’ve “befriended.” I’ve saved so many from them, they now just walk away when I show up…as if they say,”the fun’s over, let’s go.”
Bitter birthday to you and Happy birthday to your unbitter boy.

Actually… When I was there and they told us a few words, I walked up to one panda’s enclosure and gave him my finest ‘it’s eating time’ in Mandarin. I can tell you he didn’t think twice but ran directly to his inside cage (where we always fed him).

So you just need to learn a few phrases that Panda’s might want to hear.

Have him open up one of those birthday cards he got, with the money in it, and buy the pizza for dinner tonight. And soda too. That will teach him a valuable lesson and prepare him for Halloween when you get your cut of his candy. Be strong, it’s your gift to him.
