So, I don't think I saw this started...pretty sure it was supposed to be yesterday, again. Ooops!
Anyway, what are your WTFs this week?!? I think some were in other threads, but I have a couple this morning and thought it might be helpful to have a separate thread!
ETA: wtf brain?! 3.9.17? Ugh...how about 4.9.17

WTF weather? The humidity here (SWFL) is killing me! 93%+ and we've broken records I think every day this week so far! Ugh...just stop! I'm already hot enough!!
WTF coworker...why do I even bother saying good morning to you? All I get is a grunt back or a sort of smile...I know I'm not a morning person, but dang it I try!
I feel better now

WTF cleaning people! All you really do is empty the trash can, the least you could do is put it back where you picked it up from! Why must you move it around my office?!

WTF lady doing my u/s yesterday that I've never met before... WHY are you talking to my baby the whole time?! Am I not even in the room? And WHY are you using baby talk most of the time?! "Oooh, look at your wittle footsy there." "Aww, what a cutie little peanut, can you dance for me?" If I could've barfed on her, I would have.
@lrwardrop my hospital took over a Catholic hospital couple years back we never celebrated easter but we did good Friday now we don't now that we aquired them. It's confusing. @mdlorenz I prefer sunflower lecithin over soy. Soy gave me horrible gas. Good luck getting through the mastitis. For me my supply never bounced back fully I hope that doesn't happen to you
@BabyMC517 - mine always ends up exactly where my feet go. And they push it far enough back that I have to bend and contort to reach it....pisses me off every single time it happens, which isn't a great way to start the morning! LOL.
@mdlorenz - I'm sorry about the mastitis! That sounds terrible
@lrwardrop: Wait. Hold on. A Catholic hospital not recognizing Easter as a holy day?! Ummm, it's THE holiest day of the year. I'm all WTF now too!
@lrwardrop we are making up for it at our catholic hospital. Good Friday is a recognized holiday here in addition to Easter. There are zero scheduled cases in the OR on that day and only a call team available (including lucky me!). I have worked at other catholic systems and never had that as a holiday. It's interesting how it varies.
@ChristinaWild they usually put it under my desk where I never have it or today they decided to put it by a different table in my office. WTF? seriously? I have it on the side of my desk...

@rkstro2 that's awesome! Hopefully you don't get called and get to enjoy the day.
I used to work at a hospital in Detroit and we got holiday pay on MLK day. So that was pretty cool. I'm sure they changed that in the past few years since I saw on the news they were struggling.
@pshaortao on my ep fb group it's the leading one used. I bought soy the first time since thats all my local gnc had then switched to sunflower. It's also in kit kat bars so you could go that route too!
WTF car. There were 4 indicator lights on this morning (tire pressure, abs, power steering, and traction control). Tires looked fine and everything drove like normal, so I'm hoping it's a weird sensor fluke, but I'm taking my car in this afternoon now when all I want to do is go home and sit on the couch.

Wow that's really cool! I've never had an MLK holiday except for growing up in school of course!

An excuse to eat chocolate?! I'll be stocking up on KitKats!

@Yiggle09 and @pshaortao Thanks! A local mama friend just dropped off her old supply of sunflower lecithin so I mixed it up into a smoothie. I have to drink 24 oz to get the daily dose and it tastes like the local co-op smells - I may not be crunchy enough for this. I would get so sick from the number of Kit Kats I'd presumably have to eat. Dosages I've seen (on KellyMom) are 3600-4500 mg per day. My lecithin is 1500 mg per TWO heaping tablespoons - oy.
@jayandaplus my soy lecithin came in a jug here you put a scoop into your food or dri m once a day. I hated it in a drink so I just mixed it into my daily bowl of cereal. I got mine from whole food.
They do have a pill version, I dont think they had it at a nearby store where I used to live. I may look into trying that this go around.
WTF AC. Don't you know I'm pregnant? Also, WTF night sweating. I assumed I was just pregnant so it took me until 3am to realize the AC went out. At least it was before my summer maternity leave I guess.

WTF lungs. I get so winded doing the most ridiculous things lately. Case in point, doing mascara is not running a marathon and should not require a break in the middle of it.
I've had some of the restless legs at night, so annoying! And the other night, heartburn woke me up for the first time. It was so built up, I could feel pressure along the bottom of my rib cage. Took 3 Tums and some good burping to knock it down.
It’s not that I don’t like you, it’s that I don’t know you. Stranger Danger.
@MoshiMoshi7 I feel you! I now have to "recover" after going up the stairs at home. @RedInLove Ick! I woke up last night and had to abruptly sit up as I had a good bit of acid in my mouth I was about to choke on. So nasty.
WTF body, can I go just one week without being admitted! I had my JP drain removed yesterday afternoon and un the evening I had a 104.3 fever. I went to the ER had Cat Scan and they mentioned another possible surgery. I totally need a punch card now!
Luckily this morning they said its just a infection and antibiotics should do the trick. Crazy thing is there is a possibility that it's a strep b infection due to pregnancy.
WTF sprint, I scheduled an appt for 645pm, showed up 20 mins early. Then i got told it may be up to an hour wait until I see someone. Now I see my name is on the list behind other people that did not schedule an appointment. Seriously..

Soy lecithin seemed to help prevent mastitis afterwards, if you want to look into trying something!

@pshaortao and @Yiggle09 do you eat/drink the lecithin or...?
I'm WTF with y'all on all of these. Solidarity sisters!
