You know it's your favorite time of the year. Not the shopping, or the crowds or hullabalu. Not the television specials, or cheesy ads, or the egg nog. Not the parties, at least the party part. The party where you get to exchange White Elephant Gifts. The excuse you have to wrap up some garbage … Continue reading The White Elephant Bitter Blog Post

First of all, I want to say to all those out there that are not working this week, because your jobs are awesome and they let you have this week off, or you are a teacher and they "make" you stay home for two weeks, or you are just going to "call in sick" for … Continue reading Bitter Christmas Music
Casual Friday Giftures
I don't know about you, but if I had the chance I would never wear clothes...that didn't include sweatpants, short sleeve T-shirts and either bare feet, or if it was necessary to wear something on my feet, sandals.

Bitter Obsessions
After doing extensive research, I've found that people are too busy to read the internet and blogs right now because they are too busy celebrating the holidays.

So, I'm bitter about it, but I'm keeping this short … Continue reading Bitter Obsessions

There are a few routes I take everyday, that I can do them by instinct. Work to home, I've got memorized. Work to Pizza, I know that by heartburn. Couch to kitchen I can do in my sleepwalk.

Bitter Plan-it Hauling Wood
My aspirations when I was growing up were not too much different than other kids my age. Most of them wanted to be Superman or Batman or a fireman. I also wanted to be in the comics, but as minion #2 for a nefarious megalomaniac dude (or dudette) bent on world domination. As per my life, nothing went smoothly or according to plan, though I've heard you … Continue reading Bitter Plan-it Hauling Wood
Not Wanted: Lost Puppy Blog

Lost in The Future – Disney Studios Edition
There's been all kinds of things written about the future. I don't know if you know or care, but when Back to the Future came out in 1985, 30 years in the future was 2015.

Not so much weird green people with almond shaped eyes, but more … Continue reading Lost in Space…Universal Studios Space Edition
