Who's hungry for waffles?!?

Sorry. Can I start this? I'm all pissy and shizz.
Then and now. How did my boy get so big?

Re: Who's hungry for waffles?!?
Fark.
Then he volunteers to feed him breakfast as if he's doing me some huge favor. Breakfast consists of putting some sort of toasted breakfast bread spread with something [that I toasted and spread, I might add] on his tray and offering banana. Big deal. He's all stressed about this event so he's a really fun conversationalist meaning I talk and he says responses that are incongruous with the topic.
Example:
Me: I had the strangest dream last night.
Him: I lost my umbrella.
I also nominate SIL for ruining Howell's baptism. Twat.
What!?!?! FELONY! Seriously? That's ridiculous on so many levels. I nominate Indiana too.
I'd also like to nominate my IL's, who will never change, but will constantly cause me stress. Last week they needed to spend the night at our house because FIL had a doctors appt in the area. I spent the whole evening listening to how horrible everyone is, and how ugly DS's cousins are. I'm serious my MIL actually said out loud that DS's cousin (who is 1 year old) is fugley and will need to wear a bag over her head when she gets older. Who says stuff like that!?!?! I don't know how I'm going to keep that kind of stuff away from DS...

Yup. Has to do with "lying on the application" because it specifically asks for the male applicant and female applicant, so in order to avoid just becoming a more awesome state and going with the federal strike down of doma they decided to make it a felony to apply. Plus marking it out is not allowed from my understanding because it is considered tampering with a document or some shizz like that. I really need to get away from this state.
My dog. A decided to sleep in this morning, and my effing dog went BSC because of some guy she saw walking past our house.
Me too! I thought I was going to see waffles w/ syrup...maybe blueberry waffles
Eta : at 50 mins after opening, the wait time for people getting here now is 5 HOURS AND 20 MINUTES.
This. Now I am stuck at work, dreaming of cinnamon waffles.
Also, WTF Indiana? Twatstate of the decade.
You're welcome - had to spread how ridiculous Indiana is. I agree with pp posts - Twat Waffle of the Year.
MIL - If you saw the end of my gif story, we got back from dinner and out of nowhere she makes a comment about teachers should get paid what they get paid because teachers have the summer off. I seriously have no idea why she would say that. 1) Because we weren't even discussing paychecks or anything that would even cause this statement to be made and 2) That's the biggest insult you can give a teacher. I'm not sure our relationship will ever be the same again. I'm in my classroom right now finishing up paperwork and getting started on next year. The amount of work I do outside of my contract hours makes up for me having summers off. I could continue but won't.
When I saw your gif story I was on mobile and wanted to comment, but having to re-enter my info was wayyy to much effort before bed. Your MIL is definitely a twatwaffle. I don't know why you put up with her when your H is not there. Seriously. That is awful. teachers have one of the most thankless jobs and easily put in 60 hours a week + to keep things up.
What a biitch.
Jessa is wise. I also hate the martyr card of, "Oh, I'll feed the baby while I starve," My mom pulls that crap. It's good for babies to see other people eat. It's a communal activity.
I am seething over this. What an ignorant twat. Why don't the gmas get that they raised their kids?
Sam's Club. Holy eff, worst customer service in the WORLD. Seriously.
I got this free club membership offer in the mail, so I go to the store to sign up. After waiting THIRTY minutes in line, I finally get signed up, walk to the baby aisle, where, alas, they don't sell Luvs (which was the point in this entire fiasco). So, I go home and figure I'll order them online.
I order a box online, $31. I happen to go downstairs and see a whole box of 180 that I didn't know we had, so I go back upstairs to cancel my order. I don't get a confirmation that my order cancelled, so I call the 1-800 # and the guy is like, "Oh yea, it cancelled. It won't charge your card" Cool.
Then, I look in my bank account an hour later and there's a charge from SC. Then, I get an e-mail that my order is confirmed. So, I call and tell them I called to verify it was cancelled and they tell me someone will call me back in 2-3 days to discuss a refund.
2-3 days?!!! WTAF?!!!
So, I tell her that's unacceptable, that I called to cancel it 5 minutes after I placed it, and that I even called to verify it was cancelled. I told her I wanted to speak to a supervisor, she transfers me, and hangs up on me. Then, I call back and wait 35 minutes to speak to a supervisor and eventually hang up. I haven't called back because I'm still pissed about yesterday.
Will we use the diapers? Eventually. But, that's not the point.
SCANDAL!

We actually get along really well. I see her one day each weekend. I just can't figure out what possessed her to say that.
In Indiana we can renew ours online. Can you do that?
Ha! That made me LOL. My DH is always getting up in arms about the girls touching his work clothes while we are eating dinner. So he's already been to work, and is home. Who cares if they get some food on your clothes!? Anyway, I feel your pain.
DH and I married 8 years. Mom of three, stepmom of one.
Oh Manda, that is awful what your MIL said about teachers.
My dad just retired from teaching this year and he once calculated that all the time and work that goes into teaching, teachers don't actually get holidays at all according to a regular 8 hour work day.
It has got to be one of the most difficult, stressful and thankless jobs there is. You deserve a trophy!
I wish. We can for tag renewals and I always do.
I finally got home at a little after 10. THREE HOURS. Insanity.
Oh, ok, for some reason I had in my head that you had issues with your IL's from a previous post. I still think it was a twatwaffle thing to say though.
