So glad it's TT!
My husband's boss is a HUGE F*CKING TWATWAFFLE. She's never really liked him, and I've never really liked or trusted her. She just completed his end-of-internship review (he did that last academic year; he still works there now on salary in a separate but related position), and she was so fucking bitchy! It's not even that she said anything blatantly untrue (although a lot of things were her opinion rendered uncharitably); it's that she took the opportunity to air all this shit in a document that affects his career path (he's training to be a pastor) instead of just dealing with him personally. But of course she wouldn't do that because she's a shady bitchcunt. I can't figure out what she's trying to do- does she want to derail his career so she can keep him as her little slave, to do all the work while she goes on exotic vacations for weeks at a time (she vacationed last year DURING ADVENT, can you even believe that). I can't believe I have to keep going to her church and smile at her fake ass every Sunday morning. She better watch out. I have it in me. I haven't been living in NYC for 10 years for nothing. I have a lot of street rage saved up and her ass could be mine anytime. And thankfully I know she's such a coward that I could yell at her once and that would be the end of having to deal with her directly for the rest of my life. Unfortunately, she's ultra shady and I'm sure she'd use her valuable clergy time to be nasty like she always does.
Anybody else?
Re: TWATWAFFLE TUESDAY!
Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event.
I'll like to nominate my whole family this morning....minus Becca. DH for not waking up when he is supposed to, to help out with the dogs and kids, his excuse is he is sick, well, I was sick for the last 2 weeks, and got up every day at 4:30 to get everything ready to leave for 6:40.
My two older kids, who after I woke them up proceeded to go back to bed, and sleep in until 9:30, school starts at 8:30, then they call me to ask what they should do, duuuhhhh, get your asses to school.
After, my DH called me asking why didn't I get the kids up (I did you moron, not my fault they decided to go back to sleep, once I left) and walk the dogs. I have enough to do with getting a toddler up who is teething, has a cold and is all around crumpy, plus getting myself out the door, do it yourself.
Now SD is claiming she is sick and threw up in the kitchen, the proof, a little spit on the floor. I am not stupid, you already told me the real reason you don't want to go, is because you have been dating 2 boys, they found out about each other last night, and now you cannot just turn off your phone to ignore them, you actually have to face them.
@zpanjwani - I never want Becca to grow up, she can stay a little girl forever.
I now understand why people don't like teenagers, I find they are so much harder than babies, sure they are more independent, but you always have to be one step ahead of them, as they think you are stupid and naive. I keep reminding SD that I have done everything she is doing and more.

I'm voting for @hijinx 's mom. That's just not cool. You're a great mom.
All you ladies are. I feel really blessed to have a circle of moms around me like you. Keeps me sane. (And I don't throw around the word "blessed" very often.)
I'm not sure I have a TW at the moment, but I told TheBoy he was a bum last night. And he manned up to it. Not that he then DID anything, but he admitted to being a bum. He forgot I have rehearsals on Monday nights, so he didn't come home until I was late. And then when I got home, I realized that he hadn't done so much as wipe up the highchair after E was done eating or move her diapers to the dryer. Neither of these are hard tasks....
@hijinx I wanted to cry when I read that! Your mom even if she was excited should never have said that. You are an awesome mom!!! ::hugs to you::
My TW nomination is my IL's. While I am thankful they kept the boys for the 2 days we were at the hospital they royally screwed up their routines and now Camden is up 5 times a night and fights all sleep and Cortlandt refuses to nap yet still gets up at 6 am!
Secondly FIL has had DH helping him for the past 2 days on a job site and yesterday he was supposed to be done by 12 to get Cortlandt from school but at 11 he texts and asks if I minded getting them. Sure honey I am 7 days out from a c-section but I'll get myself, Jace and Camden out the door to go get Cortlandt, its a good thing I feel as good as I do!
Thirdly the IL's haven't even seen Jace since he was less than 24 hours old! They haven't called, sent a text or even asked about the boys! WTF! SMIL goes to stay at her daughters house for days at a time to "help" with her 3 kids ages 12, 2 and 4 months but can't even ask how we are doing knowing I am home alone with 3 boys!
Ok rant over!
@mommymaddness After reading yours I've been itching all day, ick! I'm so sorry you got that.
And I can't believe how many of the board's MILs and mothers are acting like TWs, and really mean ones at that. Maybe it's the full moon bringing out the dark sides?
