WTF Wednesday 11/16

Little late on this, been a busy day at work. What's making you say WTF lately??


This is mostly bc I love Chris Pine....

WTF to why cant I sleep through the night? I mean, I don't mind waking up to go to the bathroom and then going right back to sleep. But every night I wake up for at least an hour. Last night I was awake for 2 hours. I'm getting so sleep deprived. Even when I'm not pregnant, I need 8 hours of sleep to be fully functioning. I need much more now that I'm growing a tiny human. And I can't feel his kicks yet, so I'm not waking up because of that...

So the construction is still going on at the place where I work, right? So I went to the bathroom and on the way I walked down the stairs to the landing below where the construction is. Perhaps I should have considered first, but they've always had signs if there was wet paint or whatever. No signs, no people, so I thought maybe the workers hadn't even arrived yet for the day. But no. I walk down the stairs and get stuck halfway down. Through sheer will I made it to the bottom and ducked into the bathroom where I promptly stuck to that floor. Just yesterday those stairs were fine, so they must have put carpet glue on them this morning, then left not a sign nor a person to indicate they were sticky. Wtf. So I've been trying to figure out how to get the sticky off my shoes but I don't think it's gonna be possible. I tried soap and dawn dish soap. My next recourse is the alcohol in my hand sanitizer. I'm not happy that some got on my skin. Being pregnant and all, and not knowing what chemicals might be in that. Freakin why. And what if they ruined my shoes forever?

It's kind of funny an hour later but walking around trying to find cleaning supplies while sticking to the carpet and collecting every hair shed by every human being who's come through since the last vacuuming was kind of a ridiculous way to spend the morning.

WTF to the d*mn dog who pissed all over the carpet last night (despite a late walk) for me to find at 530 this morning & then to my two angelic toddlers who threw up their breakfast at the kitchen table (not sick, the older one decided not to chew and choked a little on a pancake and since she has a crazy gag reflex up came breakfast and the younger one saw her throw up and it made him throw up too) causing me to also vomit as well bc of my pregnancy nose! Also WTF to the 24 hour urine collection catch tray. Ridiculously flimsy piece of junk that has already nearly fallen into the toilet bowl twice. End rant.

WTF brain.  Up at 2:30 this morning just thinking... overthinking.  Say I tell myself "Self, stop thinking, go to sleep" and that gets me thinking more about what I shouldn't be thinking about.  Normally when I can't get to sleep, I grab my book and read until I get sleepier except the book I'm reading got really good so I read it until my alarm went off... over 3 hours later.

@KirstinH88, I feel your pain! I was just "complaining" about this in the Wednesday ticker thread! I have never had trouble falling asleep or back to sleep like this!

@HGRich

Definitely a WTF!!  

We just had our office potluck and there were tons of desserts, from pies to cookies to cake.  Well I'm normally wanting something sweet mid-day like Famous Amos cookies or something similar.  Right now all that sounded good was the fresh fruit!  WTF to my body and brain wanting a "healthy" dessert!  Now was my chance to indulge, but the baby wasn't having it.

I'm sitting here counting down the minutes to my anatomy scan and freaking out, when my OB's office calls and asks about my appointment this afternoon. Apparently they upgraded computer systems and my appointment didn't get transferred. So they put me on hold for what felt like 30 minutes and I'm thinking, if they can't get me in today I'm going to LOSE IT on the phone with this receptionist, and I have a huge knot in my stomach while I'm waiting for her to come back and tell me what's going on. When she finally came back she said they were able to get me in an hour later in the afternoon today but WTF couldn't she have checked that before calling me and scaring me?? I know I'm being dramatic but come on!

@kitkat8387 they were probably hoping you'd volunteer to reschedule.  Good luck today!

WTF to my cat who has decided not to use her litter box because she doesn't like the air freshener we put next to it (or at least I think that is what made her mad). Never had this problem before but the last two days since we put in the darn freshener she won't go. 

Virginialeigh

WTF pregnancy brain. Brushed DS teeth twice before we left the house but forgot to brush my own. And I was hoping I wouldn't have this issue this time around but I've started dropping things. The last time I was PG my hands would just let go of things for no reason. I had to concentrate on holding on to things. Last night I was moving my cup of water so DS wouldn't knock it over and I dropped it. I really hope it was just a one time thing but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Mama5181

WTF body. It's just completely given up on me today. I haven't been able to do anything but lay on the couch and take a nap. Everything hurts. I'm exhausted. And my neck hurts so bad I don't want to move my head. And my poor DD ( 3.5 yo) is just snuggling next to me because she knows I feel terrible

Warning:  I'm a submariner's wife and curse a lot.  Today was not a great day.

I was driving home earlier (during some minor rush hour traffic) from a training that's an hour away from my house.  I was driving in the left lane, there were two cars in front of me, nobody behind me.  Some fucking jackass decided he just COULD NOT get in behind me, so he squeezed his ass in between me and the car in front of me.  And was gracious enough to clip the front bumper of my car in the process.  Thankfully, there's no damage, but I was PISSED.  Seriously, wtf.  I hate driving in New England.

WTF mechanic that was attempting to do an oil change in my new to me van (that I purchased 5 whole days ago), broke a part and proceeded to call and tell me I would need to spend $475 getting it fixed!! Thank goodness for mechanic friends that informed my husband later of a $20 part it needed instead!! Still pissed to be without my van for 3-4 days til said part gets here though...

@beckyf321 are you in CT? My sister's husband is a submariner and was stationed up there for a while. We visited her over New Year's Eve ... so beautiful, but so freaking cold! So sorry about your bumper and the *sshole driver! 

rachelmiller03

Late to the game.... WTF co-worker! You staying up with your sick husband one night does not mean you "know how I feel" about being sleep deprived. DS is 15 months old, and in 15 months I have gotten a full nights sleep maybe 14 times. We hired a sleep consultant, have tried essential oils, everything I can think of. Your one night of being up with a grown-ass sick man does not mean you know how I feel.

WTF Old Navy. I loved my maternity shirts until this week, now they're borderline too short!

I feel like they're making them shorter now in general. I've noticed a difference from my old maternity shirts from 2 yrs ago and new ones I've ordered and they don't seem to be as long, even in different sizes. Even in some of the pictures, the shirts don't seem to go far down enough--especially for 3rd trimester bumps!

@Dannylion24, yep, my husband is stationed in Groton!
