<p>I see you none of you missed me on Wednesday.  No one sent a get well soon card, a stuffed crust pepperoni, or a thermometer.  Remember when I stayed up all night when your blog wasn&#8217;t feeling well and your computer had some sort of virus and you wanted me to watch it?  Yeah, well I guess it doesn&#8217;t go both ways.  Must be nice when you aren&#8217;t feeling well and someone acknowledges you. Don&#8217;t worry though, I&#8217;m not bitter.  So yeah, not that you care, but I decided to take a sick day on Wednesday, not because I felt like staying home and being lazy (I would have preferred to be at work on Wednesday, because of other people&#8217;s kids), or because I was planning a Bitter Ben&#8217;s Day Off (Like Ferris Bueller&#8217;s but way more bitter) but because I was actually sick.  The worst part of all, was that I had to take a sick day for actually being sick.  Now I&#8217;m down to only 586 hours that I can use to guilt my co-workers into doing stuff for me.   What makes me even more bitter is that all this real sickness prevented me from getting &#8220;fake&#8221; sick yesterday.  You know, what us lazy people call a &#8220;long weekend&#8221;.  Talk about a waste. In the meantime, I&#8217;m gonna leave these wasted gifs right here for everyone else that wasted a sick day, or forgot to send a stuffed crust.</p>

<p>Speaking of waste, I&#8217;m glad I could do that to your time this morning.  If there is any other way I can waste your time, please&#8230;hesitate to ask.  There is definitely stupid questions and way stupider answers so feel free to not ask any questions, no matter how smart you think they are.  And have a bitter weekend wasting away your life until you have to come right back here on Monday and read another bitter post.  Unless, I&#8217;m sick in which you won&#8217;t care.</p>
