We have a democrat and a republican living under the same roof, both undeniably opinionated and hot-headed.  And to add fuel to the fire, my mother-in-law thought her opinion counted in my household, to which I had to inform her otherwise.  Many individuals in Maryland mistakenly thought the primary was being held this past Tuesday, when in fact, it will be February 12th.  My mother-in-law is just stupid, which cannot be fixed, so she went to vote, found out she was too early, then continued on to my house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First of all, in my mother-in-law prenup, I know it states that before any visits I must have proper notification, which is 48 hours.  Drop-ins are not allowed.  I have had this conversation with her many, many times and I think I need to get her signature on this contract for it to be more effective.  My yelling, cursing and eye-rolling has no effect anymore.  So after this latest episode of her showing up unannounced, she committed her next idiotic nuisance.  She began talking.  That was the idiotic nuisance.  Keep in mind, stupid people should not delve into any political discussions.  They look like an ass, and she already is an ass, so you get the picture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She doesn't know why anyone would vote for Hillary; She doesn't know why anyone would vote for Obama; She doesn't know why anyone would vote for McCain; She doesn't know why anyone would vote for Romney or Huckabee;  OK, who the hell was she going out to vote for?  Pick a side dammit! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While expressing myself in an exuberant manner or what you all might call ranting and raving, I told her that some people should not be allowed to vote because they do not have our best interest at heart.  There should be another category on the ballot that reads "I rescind my voter's registration card because I am stupid and do not understand what I am doing."  My mother-in-law finally left, not fully comprehending what had transpired. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But then I thought to myself; What if she does fully comprehend what she is doing; Driving me insane!  Is that the idea?  I need to review my mother-in-law prenup and perhaps draft a post-nup.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-5116131277006162312?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/5116131277006162312/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=5116131277006162312' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/5116131277006162312'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/5116131277006162312'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2008/02/mother-in-law-stupidity.html' title='Mother-in-Law Stupidity'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-3963360037028072084</id><published>2008-02-01T11:19:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-02-01T11:33:32.308-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='contact lenses'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eye exam'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Free'/><title type='text'>Free is just another way of saying "Gotcha!"</title><content type='html'>The word "free" drives me up a wall.  Nothing is free, maybe inexpensive, deferred cost, but nothing is "free".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went for my annual eye exam yesterday and the doctor informed me my nearsightedness had progressed some and I needed a new contact prescription.  She was going to order a "trial" pair just to see "how they fit" and "how they felt."  But the trial pair was "free."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the jib jab confused me because why do you order a trial pair of contacts to see how they fit and feel?  Why can't anyone just tell the straight up truth?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would appreciated the doctor to tell me, "you need new contacts, I'll order a new pair for you.  I'm not sure how you'll adjust to the new prescription, so I'll order a trial pair from the company and we'll go from there." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK, I'm about to pay for my co-pay, which is only $10.00, and now they must go over the charges with me.  What charges?  The co-pay?  Nope!  The trial pair of contacts are "free", but I need to pay for a fitting.  When the contacts arrive, I need to return to the eye doctor, put my contacts in and she will ask how they fit.  Does that make sense?  Can't I just call her office and tell her how they fit?  The cost will be $35.00&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the trial pair is not "free" at all.  I am actually paying for that new pair of contacts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Free is just another way of saying "Gotcha!"&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-3963360037028072084?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/3963360037028072084/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=3963360037028072084' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/3963360037028072084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/3963360037028072084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2008/02/free-is-just-another-way-of-saying.html' title='Free is just another way of saying &quot;Gotcha!&quot;'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-3397073294968662749</id><published>2008-01-25T22:37:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-01-25T22:55:16.731-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crazy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bad Girls'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oxygen Network'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='TV show'/><title type='text'>Bad Girls</title><content type='html'>I've been hypnotized to watch a new show by the name of "&lt;a href="http://www.badgirlsclubonoxygen.com/"&gt;Bad Girls&lt;/a&gt;" on the &lt;a href="http://www.badgirlsclubonoxygen.com/"&gt;Oxygen Network&lt;/a&gt;.  It comes on Tuesday nights, right before the &lt;a href="http://www.badgirlsclubonoxygen.com/"&gt;Janice Dickerson Modeling show&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The show is outlandish because of one girl, who stands out, Tanisha.  This young woman literally rants and raves like a maniac.  She starts fights, and has deemed herself as the group leader.  Now the other girls each have their own issues, but this show is focused on Tanisha, the psychotic chick.  I'm not sure how she made it through to become one of the housemates, but she has these girls following whatever she says.  On one hand, I'm impressed...on the other hand, I believe she is bipolar and borderline psychotic and will definitely hurt someone by the last show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But why am I so drawn to this show?  Why do we enjoy craziness?  It's like when you see something odd in the street and you stop to watch.

Why do grocery stores only put 2 or 3 cashiers on a line when they know Saturdays is shopping day?  How many people do we need in a line before you open up another one?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Why does the Post Office only have 2 people on a register on Saturday mornings, the busiest morning of the week?  That is the day most people are off!  You know its gonna be busy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Why do things break as soon as the warranty runs out?  It's like they make it to last til that very last day, then !Pow!

Well, she broke up with him without any revenge.  Now, her brilliant idea is to become intimate with one of our friends.  Not a new trend, but new to me because I've never come across anyone involved in this type of relationship. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Casual sex with one of your friends instead of "normal" dating?  How do you sleep with a friend then act as nothing happened? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friend has not chosen that special "friend" out of our circle of friends.  Does that make sense?

These gentlemen are competing against each other for the most votes.  I enjoy a competitive nature but I'm extremely choosy, therefore, I had to review each website carefully before I came to a decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entering Tyler's website, I was first impressed by a sentence Tyler wrote in his "Squeeze more money from your blog" article.  He wrote "As a blogger, my main focus is to write good quality articles that resonate with my audience. Additionally, since my blog is about teaching you how to make money online, I try to write articles that make my readers come back because they know they’ll end up learning something from my posts."  It could be good writing or an entrepreneur that believes in quality.  Either way, this stood out and made me want to peruse more articles.  My honest critique is I enjoyed Tyler's site, picked up a few pointers and I look forward to reading his articles. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next, I had to review Gyutae's site to see if there was any worthy information provided.  Gyutae's site is the opposite of Tyler's.  It's more commercial vs. entertaining. That made it difficult for me to read many of his articles.  For a blog to keep my attention, it must draw me in and keep me excited to be there.  I noticed one of Gyutae's posts from Alan of Affiliate Confession, who wrote that “Gyutae is a real person with a decent haircut who’s wearing a business jacket and Tyler Cruz is a cartoon character with a gambling problem and poor posture. He also has very shifty eyes.”  This is one of the things I enjoyed of Tyler's website.  It's whimsical and fun and keeps your attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While both websites provide great tips for bloggers, Tyler's blog is more inviting and energizing.  His logo draws attention and provides a welcoming feeling without even perusing the site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And on a final note, Tyler was evil enough to upload pics of his opponent and himself, and then draw upon Gyutae's face.  Although, this was a humorous gesture, I nod in his corner for his bitchiness.  &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;I cast my vote for TylerCruz.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-6182373223767581603?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/6182373223767581603/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=6182373223767581603' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/6182373223767581603'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/6182373223767581603'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2008/01/contest-sponsored-by-tyler-cruz-and.html' title='Contest Sponsored by Tyler Cruz and Gyutae Park: Who Shall Get the Votes?'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-5450464578402944301</id><published>2008-01-11T08:33:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-01-11T08:55:52.581-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='relationships'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cheating'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Revenge'/><title type='text'>Cheating Men and the Consequences</title><content type='html'>Late last night my friend called for advice. After weeks of accusations and cat and mouse games, she finally confirmed what she already knew...Her man is a scoundrel! He has been &lt;a href="http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2008/01/cheating-men-and-consequences.html"&gt;Cheating&lt;/a&gt;! Bumping and grinding with other chicks and now she has to go through the stages until she's back on solid ground. For those who have encountered cheating before, you understand the stages. Depression and crying followed by angry revenge finally you come to the fork in the road to forgive and continue the relationship or clean the slate, cut all ties and leave the cheating a**hole. You know, if he cheats once, he'll do it again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, seems like my friend had skipped through the depression stage straight to angry revenge. She is looking for ways to get back at him and although I had a few ideas, I didn't encourage her. When you are traumatized, your mental stability goes out the window and you do anything to feed the madness. However, once she cools down and thinks this through, a more methodical approach might benefit her. I'm thinking of a party...I see rope, tweezers, and wax strips to begin with. A crowd of women, grouped around a bed with the cheating a**hole tied to the center.  And then out comes the tweezers. But I'm a little psycho, so that's just my imagination gone wild. Would revenge be more fulfilling to you or just let it go?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-5450464578402944301?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/5450464578402944301/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=5450464578402944301' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/5450464578402944301'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/5450464578402944301'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2008/01/cheating-men-and-consequences.html' title='Cheating Men and the Consequences'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-2961339317197535852</id><published>2008-01-10T13:27:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-01-10T14:09:34.172-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Valentine&apos;s'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='entrecard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love story'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='evil woobie'/><title type='text'>Evil Woobie Contest: A Love Story</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/R4ZtWQEXNaI/AAAAAAAAAGY/_KG-PDjJ9yc/s1600-h/valentine+woobie.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5153927052609926562" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/R4ZtWQEXNaI/AAAAAAAAAGY/_KG-PDjJ9yc/s320/valentine+woobie.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, I'm entering yet another contest and I want all of you to compete with me.

Elizabeth had begged me for hours to attend, so I relented. I attempted to enjoy myself but I remained steady to the far right just about all night. Enjoying the music, observing testosterone trying to outshine and outwit their associates. The party was so prolonged; I began waiting for the time to pass so I could leave gracefully. And just as I decided to head for the door, an unassuming smile caught my attention. He was too perfect. It was as if he was created from some faultless gene pool. I couldn't’t help but to stare. His eyes were locked into mine and wouldn’t let go. I never noticed him walking over to me and even as he began to speak, all I could do was stare. He tells me we talked all night, although I can’t imagine my words being recognizable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our third date was full of overwhelming passion and I succumbed to intimate feelings and took our relationship to the next level. It poured raining that night, which just added to our moment. After dinner and a short walk back to the dorms, we were drenched. Lit candles, raindrops and a need for body warmth ignited an amazing fervor. I became infatuated and hung onto our every moment together. Many romantic nights followed but I found that I was falling in love with the idea of falling in love. We enjoyed each other and yet we remained loyal to other interest. His fraternity life was an important honor and I still didn’t comprehend that fraternity masculine pride. I had a commitment to myself and my education and that was my first priority.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We enjoyed a three year relationship, all the way up to his senior, my junior year. And although it didn’t last, it made my college existence a memorable moment in time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-2961339317197535852?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/2961339317197535852/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=2961339317197535852' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/2961339317197535852'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/2961339317197535852'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2008/01/evil-woobie-contest-love-story.html' title='Evil Woobie Contest: A Love Story'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/R4ZtWQEXNaI/AAAAAAAAAGY/_KG-PDjJ9yc/s72-c/valentine+woobie.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-6245188882989579063</id><published>2008-01-09T11:33:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-01-09T11:39:16.343-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='unqualified'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='advice'/><title type='text'>Unwelcomed Advice from Idiots</title><content type='html'>Why do unqualified people offer unwelcome advice?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you have no job and cannot find a job and have been unemployed for quite a while, why tell me where I should be looking for a job?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If your kids are undisciplined and run-a-muck in the streets, why are you offering me advice on strategies to deal with my teenage daughter?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't you find the people who cannot offer worthy advice, are the first ones to open their mouth?

"&lt;a href="http://www.wiflba.com/2007/12/31/new-years-giveaway/"&gt;Whatever I Feel Like Bloggin About&lt;/a&gt;" is self explanatory, but the image shouts an advertisement for a scary movie. I mean, come on dude. A wretched face with a symbol burned into the forehead? Umm, how many clicks do you get per day? But upon visiting the site, I completely changed my tude.  So whatever emotions you first encounter from that image, I encourage you to visit, stay awhile and feel what he has to say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;As for his contest&lt;/span&gt;...On January 8th, He's giving away a $20. gift certificate and 250 Entrecard credits .

I expected my garbage to be picked up the day after Christmas and the day after New Year's.  Now &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;of course&lt;/span&gt;, I knew it would be slow and garbage would be a headache for everyone. But doesn't the rules of business state somewhere that if a normal business day falls on a holiday the day after that holiday, business resumes?  Does that make sense?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I call to see why I am always waiting to have my garbage retrieved.  The rep asks me if its OK for them to enjoy a holiday.  Sure, but the day after, you're suppose to resume business right?  And if you are not picking up garbage the day after the holiday, then what are you doing? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's not much multi-tasking to be done.  Retrieve the garbage, take it to the dump.  Not much brainpower there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the end, I'm driving my own garbage to the dump AND paying the county fee for trash pickup.

I know this is the mecca for children and parents should be prepared for all the screaming, crying and juice-spilling scenarios;  Suffice it to say, I wasn't prepared, but I dealt with it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One parent was there with her son who was jumping and rolling, just being a kid.  Well, he ripped his pants.  Unfortunately, these were his uniform pants and the parent let everyone know, EVERYONE, that it was the 4th pair he'd ripped this month.  She rant and raved and swatted him on the butt.  Then let him return to play?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel for the mom, however, isn't everyone aware of what kids do when they get into McDonaldland? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Straight to the playroom to begin running while you wait in line for the food;  You deliver the food to the table, they run to the table, munch on a fry and off they go back to play. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They jump, run, slide and stretch.  And don't forget Murphy's law. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The uniform pants, shirt or both will get ripped, dirtied or stained. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enter the playroom at your own risk.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-4655069692259502849?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/4655069692259502849/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=4655069692259502849' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/4655069692259502849'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/4655069692259502849'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2007/12/mcdonalds-and-good-clothing-dont-mix.html' title='McDonald&apos;s and good clothing don&apos;t mix'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-7177307215356637442</id><published>2007-12-18T08:20:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-12-18T08:31:12.162-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gifts'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='re-gifting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='christmas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='scrooge'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holidays'/><title type='text'>Scrooge</title><content type='html'>I've yet to get in the holiday spirit.

I was in the company of 1 female friend and 3 male friends.  We all agreed...Hooters has gone to the dogs!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;clientele&lt;/span&gt; remains the same.  Groups of guys, all expecting to see large &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;TaTa's&lt;/span&gt; stuffed into &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;skimpy&lt;/span&gt; tops, small and tight to fit a middle-&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;school kid&lt;/span&gt;.  HOWEVER, to all of our dismay, all the girls were stick skinny, no T or A. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I wasn't disappointed, just amazed that a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;restaurant&lt;/span&gt; known for its HOOTERS girls had lost its cool points.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our food took 30 minutes.  I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;kid&lt;/span&gt; you not!  We had drinks so at first we didn't notice it.  But so much time went by we began asking about our appetizers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They bought the appetizers and entrees to us at the same time? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next, the food was terrible.  The buffalo wings tasted like &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Popeye&lt;/span&gt; chicken with buffalo sauce on top. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I didn't know HOOTERS was doing this bad.

I always need to comment on fashion disasters, hair-a-cides, and stupidity.  But I gave it a try to keep all comments to myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything is common to me at this point.  You really have to do or say something off the curve to get a rise out of me these days.  You always have that person at work whose breath makes you want to holla, but you get use to it, so you stop commenting.  Or, you always have that secretary who doesn't understand fashion; still wears shoulder pads and doesn't care who thinks otherwise, so it becomes commonplace to you and you feel indifferent about those people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I began my day at work keeping to myself, staying busy, without any breaks.  This was the best way not to make any comments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lunch time was challenging, but no one asked for my thoughts and although I observed some strange occurences, I kept quiet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I made nice with everyone, right up to the end of day, when it was time for me to leave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An accounting clerk was in the ladies room getting ready for a date.  She was meeting him right after work, so she bought a change of clothes and her makeup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She went on and on about this guy and even I became excited for her. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I freshened up my makeup, she went to change her clothes.  As I'm saying goodbye, she calls out for me to wait...She wants me to tell her how she looks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I see her, I forgot this was my nice day.  It was all for nothing because now I must critique her and ask why she wants to perform an impression of Madonna.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This woman even has on lace gloves with the cut-off fingers???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See, I try to get out and they suck me back in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's no good, I love my bitchiness and I believe the people around me have a fondness for my unadulturated, curt frankness about life.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8779020291598126966-2379042227541399512?l=bitcholosophy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/feeds/2379042227541399512/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8779020291598126966&amp;postID=2379042227541399512' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/2379042227541399512'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8779020291598126966/posts/default/2379042227541399512'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bitcholosophy.blogspot.com/2007/12/nice-for-day.html' title='Nice for a Day?'/><author><name>CityGurl Shops</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='28' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zVTwSVgWmUQ/TNNTqvPxw_I/AAAAAAAAAO0/MAxQN4tuFZQ/S220/CityGurlShops.psd.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779020291598126966.post-9025007554154181944</id><published>2007-12-13T11:21:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-12-13T11:46:02.706-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Neighbor&apos;s Loud Music'/><title type='text'>Tired of my neighbor's loud music</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;I have been complaining to my neighbor about the loud music in the evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She explained that since it is only 8pm, legally, she can play the music until 10 or 11pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I countered with quiet enjoyment of my domicile and I would appreciate her turning it down just a bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I now understand that she is embracing her bitchiness, but I never give up that quick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;UPS knocked on my door yesterday to accept a package for my neighbor. I gladly accepted. I did not want my neighbor to be inconvenienced, not receiving her package (smile).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I walked from the front door to my back deck and tossed her package onto her deck. Although it's raining, I'm sure there won't be any damage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I'm not that sure her package won't be damaged...Oh, the hell with it.

It amazes me how comfortable people become and share their innermost thoughts and questionable activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take my co-worker for instance; We'll call him Dan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During lunch, he spoke of his family; His brother the police officer; His grandmother in the hospital; his separation from his wife and getting back together 3 months later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Take a revengeful bitch, like myself. I use every opportunity to my advantage; waiting, observing until just the right moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When Dan caused me to get fired, I knew just how to retaliate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I called his home while he was at work and politely asked for him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His wife, hesitantly informed me that he was at work (which I already knew).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked her if she was the nanny to which she laughed and said No. She asked whom I was and I explained that I was Dan's girlfriend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the pause, she asked my name. I supplied a fictitious name and began my revenge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She asked the usual questions only a wife would ask, how long, when, where. That's when I brought up all the information Dan had provided during those lunch room gatherings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I explained that Dan and I had met during their separation. I told her I was still seeing him and didn't know that they were back together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I explained that Dan and I were very involved and he had introduced me to his mother when she was in the hospital and that is where I met his brother, the police officer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I told her that I accompanied him on that business trip to New York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ofcourse she believed me. I had too much personal information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hear they divorced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do I have any remorse?
