A Middle of the week place to vent.

My Ob called me yesterday at 5pm so i couldnt call them back, and told me that i had to re-schedual my A/s. WHY would you call a pregnant woman to inform her of something like this WITH OUT TIME TO CALL BACK?! needless to say i called them this morning and the earliest they can get me in is next tuesday. You know i could have been able to swallow that pill if the lady on the phone hadnt been talking to me in a snarky im talking to a toddler manner. then i had to laugh... you're being rude... to a hormonal pregnant woman... who you KNOW is already upset beyond reason and hasnt been rude to you in any way.... who also has an appointment today anyway. Ahhh i cant want to talk to your boss.....

Also i was at the store with my husband and one of his old co-workers said "oh you dont look pregnant at all just looks like you got fat" ARE YOU #^&*!%$ kidding me!?!? yes my stomach is just super round because im fat though i've lost 20 lbs....

 anyone else have anything they need to vent about?  let it out. better to be angry here than lash out at our SO's and Family.

We have a huge even tomorrow at work and I have to run a booth and talk to people for eight hours. I do not want.

I asked for a chair, to have a helper to allow me breaks due to being on light duty per my OB. Some of the people in my office are behaving like I'm asking for gold toilet paper and the blood of a virgin.

I just want to pee every hour and to sit my chubby, tired butt in a chair! SHEESH!

Side note: amnat84, I LOVE the name Julia Rose.

More on topic: Ugh. So we had our a/s on Monday. We went to the wrong location by accident (were on time), the guy there informed the person at the correct location that we were on our way and they said they would still take us.

We got there 15 minutes late, waited 10 minutes for the tech to come out (and no one was there, so it's not like she was with someone). She then proceeded to chastize us for being late after we repeatedly apologized and explained. She was all "Did you call?" Um, yes, the guy called and talked to your receptionist who said it was fine. "Well, this is a 45 minute appt and you're 25 min late (um, no, we were 15,thanks) so now the next person has to wait." (they schedule it for an hour, though, FYI) Yes, we understand, it was an accident, we're sorry. We WERE on time, just in the wrong place. Honest mistake. "I just want you to understand that it really isn't fair to the next person for you to be late." WTF?!

Bless DH, he said something like, "We already explained what happened, I think you could realize that it was an accident." What I wanted to say was, "Who the f#$% do you think you are? The god of punctuality? You can't stand there and repeatedly chastize a fellow adult who made an honest mistake for which they sincerely apologized like you're the Queen of Sheba. It's not like we f#$%ing waltzed in here all 'who cares' or wasted off our a##es!! AND, if you were 'waiting' for us that whole time, why'd it take you 10 minutes to come out?!!!"

The appointment got MUCH better from there, so I decided not to complain because when you complain all they hear is "So-and-so was a total byotch..." and I think she may have just had a long day. She was super-nice after about five minutes of awkward silence. And, thankfully DH was there, because it could have been very ugly otherwise! Haha--oh, hormones.

Maybe gold tp and virgin blood is easier to obtain for them than a chair... what kind of company do you work for?

Okay, I have to vent about this.  Why on earth would manufacturers make maternity and nursing wear that has to be handwashed and hung to dry?!  Found some cute nursing tanks and shirts but they all say to handwash them.  Before I had DS it was something I didn't mind everyonce in a while for something really cute, but I'll be d!mned if I'm going to take the time to do that now!  Maybe I'm just not that in to fashion, but I don't have the time or energy to put that kind of care into caring for clothes that won't be worn that long anyway or that will just end up with spit up on them.

My wedding ring no longer fits on my finger. I feel like I am being judged by people that don't know me and think I am a unwed mom to be. I know probably no one even notices except me, but it is really sad!!

This happened to BFF with her first. She went into Clarie's and got a cheapo, fake ring to wear. Made her feel a lot better! I know there will come a time that mine will no longer fit and that's probably what I'll do.

I have waited for 2 months for our entertainment center to come in and they finally delivered it today.  Well, it is 4 pieces, and one of the pieces is damaged to the point that we are going to have to return it.  I am so mad.  Who knows how long it will take just to get that one piece.

I'm so angry at my MIL!  She doesn't like the name DH and I chose for our little girl (Ruth).  She makes snide comments about it ALL THE TIME. 

I do not handle her any more.  I had ONE conversation with her about how Ruth is the name we (DH and I) picked and we aren't changing it.  I told her that her comments are hurting my feelings and that if she wants to come up with a special nickname for our baby than I have no problem with that.  She didn't apoligize, she simply said, "Oh, I didn't realize I was doing it.".  Whatever.

Now DH deals with her and she still makes the comments and she still hasn't apologized.  Seriously, every time DH calls her out she has the same lame excuse, "Oh, I didn't realize".  Bullspit woman!

I am so fed up with work today! I was the only one here when we were expierencing network issues (I work in IT) and the girl that I'm training as my replacement seems to not be catching on as quickly as I hoped she would. Simple things that I told her about before she just isn't picking up and it's really frustrating me to have to pick up her slack when she should be picking up mine! Rwar! I'm also tired of people giving me unwanted advice/telling me what to do. My shirt was puckering so my coworker unbuttoned the top button (she's like my mother so this kind of stuff isn't unusual) so that my tank top peeked out. I got frustrated and buttoned it back up just to spite her!

Okay a little bit of embarrassing background here, i am like terrified of spiders. The creepy little bastards just totally freak me out. So when i see a poisonous one? You'd think someone had just stabbed me by the way i scream.

So onto today's humiliating b*tch fest, I was cleaning up our bathroom a bit, i have been sick lately and the house in trashed. I went to shake out a towel that had fallen on the floor to hang back up, and out runs a freaking brown recluse. Who literally did that whole run at me, rear up and wave his front legs at me bullshit that you see on the darn discovery channel.... Soooo AFTER i broke the sounds barrier. I hosed him down with hair spray, normally this freaks them out and freezes them up long enough to squish, but not this one. He kept coming, so i broke out the bug spray, covered my face and mouth and let him have it. He. Didn't. Die.... I finally through a shoe at him, and that did it. 

Naturally, i felt like my skin was crawling so i went to turn on the shower, and apparently the tub creature that we thought we had gotten rid off has returned, and growled at me when i turned the knob. At which point i screamed, again. Went to our room. Closed the door. And cried. 

I freaking hate this house.. Ohmagod...

I have something to vent about.... why is it that when i got hired here my boss said one of my jobs is to add things to the company calender when someone needs to set up meetings etc, but my boss never adds his own things so 1/2 the time i dont know if he is available for these meetings. So when i do add something , he tells me that he will be out of town or has something else to do. Its like he's setting me up for failure and making me look like an idiot and now i have to call all these attorneys back and say that i've made a mistake and my boss really isnt available. How hard is it , seriously.!

I agree.  We've been dealing with this for weeks (we had the name picked before our a/s... back then she just said that it'd be best for everyone if we had a boy).  Anyway happy almost 430!  have fun.

The person who I share a cubicle area with is a complete moron and I cannot stand sitting near her eight hours a day.  Every time she makes a rude comment or starts humming really loudly (in our quiet office), I have to remind myself that after baby, I will be working reduced hours or none at all.  Trying to keep my eye on the prize!

I'm sick of my friends and family not respecting my decision to keep the gender a secret from them (I'm open about it on here).  My shower is a gender reveal theme and I wanted to add in the element of surprise to make the shower more exciting than cake, presents, see ya.

Both my mom and MIL have been getting on my nerves about it, and friends are trying to find creative ways to get me to spill, and I just found out today!  Let me enjoy it a little, won't you?  They ask "so did the baby cooperate" in hopes that I'll say "yes he did" and let it slip.  Then when I don't fall for it, they continue to press.  I had DH's cousin going on about how she HAD to know because of the gift she is getting us for the shower, and I had to tell her as nicely as possible that I really wanted to make no exceptions.  I told her the nursery colours and she seems satisfied with that.  I know everyone is excited and I'm thankful for the love, but I TOLD everyone I wasn't going to reveal until the shower so back off pleeeeeease!! lol.
