~~Throat Punch Thursday~~

It's that magical time of the week...

DSculley1824 · October 2014

Well I've got one so early in the morning already. TP to my DH. He was literally thrashing around all night and snoring like a wild man (I sleep with ear plugs bc of it). The ear plugs did no justice. So from 2-4am every 20 minutes or so he would wake me up from it and then I would try to get him to lay on his side bc he stopped when he did. At 4 he yelled at me to stop waking him up. So I stormed into the guest room. Annoyed that I had a horrible night sleep and had to leave my bed...all while he got to stay in the warm bed with the pups and gets to sleep in this morning.

*Edited to add: this is just angry and tired me just complaining I barely slept. Girl needs her beauty rest lol

@dsculley1824 So sorry, sounds like he should be the one relegated to the couch!!

Big impressive flying kinja kick to the throat for IF.

DSculley1824 · October 2014

@BunnyBerry‌ next time he will be lol.

@emilee871‌ yes!! Me too. I'm on them this month while I finish testing. Hate them!

mmmKayy · October 2014

@emilee871 Boooo to bcps!

@DSculley1824 MH is the worlds worst and loudest snorer. I've gotten used to the sound, but sometimes he does this kicking thing between snores, and it shakes the bed and wakes me up. And I can't get back to sleep because it happens on like, 10 sec intervels, so I keep anticipating the next one. And he also gets mad when I wake him up to get him to stop lol.

ASM: TP to annoying salesmen. I know they have a job to do, but I hate being haggled. When I say "I'm just looking right now, thanks", what I really mean is "Don't f*cking come near me until I ask for your help". Following me around after I say I don't need your help is only going to make me say something mean, or just leave.

dancerspose · October 2014

@emilee871 I'll second that! I'm on them for the next month or so until my surgery and post-op appointment. Taking BCPs again makes me feel like some failure...at least I plan on drinking like a fish while I'm on them...

@BunnyBerry (HUGS)

TP to work for being so unbelievably crazy during what was supposed to be a nice, short week (had Monday off).

mshandlebar · October 2014

Work TPs must be a theme today. I'm double fisting today so mine go out to both my over sensitive and catty co-workers and the ridiculous amount of work that needs to get done. I wouldn't mind the work, that's the drawback to a small nonprofit, but sometimes it's like frickin highschool around here!

Side note: double fisting autocorrected to double fudging on my phone. Sounds vaguely dirty and delicious?

DSculley1824 · October 2014

@BlueFairy5‌ right?! If it wasn't so desperate for sleep I would have put up a fight lol.

@mmmKayy‌ and @amlrunner‌ YES. Exactly my situation. It's like my body sits up wide awake waiting for the next snore or body thrash. Wtf. TP to my body/mind for that.

*** Trolls stupid BFP mentioned***

@DaydreamSam I was just coming here to TP the trolls who were saying the board doesn't offer support!!! They really ticked me off.. And whoever the heck decided to throw their BFP in our faces seriously pissed me off.. I am super new here( like one week) and have found everyone to be nothing but amazing and sooo supportive. I was a little worried with my first post as I was young, only been married 2 years, and had only been "trying" if you could even call it that for a few months. But the ladies were amazing and totally looked past the little things and cared enough to listen to the rest of my story about cancer causing IF and no AF for over 3 years and told me I was welcome here and definitely belonged. Since then I have tried to be a part of the community and participate even tho I am no expert. But seriously these trolls are ridiculous and need to be removed from these boards somehow!

***Babies mentioned (not mine)***

My TPT is for the 4 different people that tell me last week "you're so good with babies, you should have one!" Duh.... if only you knew I'm getting poked and prodded weekly to try and make that happen!

allielb83 · October 2014

TP to my in-laws. My father-in-law is staying with us an extra week because he needs to stay in town for the burial of his mother. Who died last April when the ground was still frozen. If they don't get her in now it'll be next spring. They want her next to her deceased husband except now they can't remember where he is buried since no one marked it. HOW IS THIS MY LIFE?!?!

BFP mention***

Also throat punch that one of my coworkers announced she was preggo today ( and yay for her! She has PCOS) and now all the comments start to me about when I will get pregnant.

What? The ground was frozen this whole time? I'm a little confused, but wow! I'm sorry you have to go through that. I'm sorry for your loss, also.

redandblue · October 2014

@mshandlebar This e-card is for you! Lol! That's pretty much how I feel about my work these days.

curve31 · October 2014

Well I was gonna give my to my RE office but they've redeemed themselves. I realized last night they scheduled my follicle scan for CD13. Last time it was CD11 and I was ready to trigger. So I emailed the nurse when I got up and she said we could reschedule. I call and they're booked up. But they were gonna see what they could do and call me back. Well they got me in at 8am so I didn't have to go BSC crazy on them. I'm NOT wasting a cycle because you can't fit in a 10 minute vag cam appt!!

But since they aren't getting it, I'll give it to Sallie Mae. Earlier this year we were paying on MH's student loan, no problem. Then all the sudden I get an email saying the deferment I requested was approved. I requested no such thing. But hey I'll take it. So I don't pay it for a while. A month or so ago I put a little extra money towards it. I'm an idiot and didn't know this cancels your deferment. So all the sudden they are harassing the shit out of us about it being late. They are calling my phone and MH's a couple times a day. I didn't even know it was due because they send you so much spam you don't know what's important. So I pay it. And they are still calling! And of course its just a recording so you can snap on them.

redandblue · October 2014

My TP goes out to the City Utilities guy who decides that his time is more valuable that anyone else. Appointment scheduled this morning for our rented water heater to receive maintenance. Appointment scheduled for 8 am, buddy calls at 8:20 say he is just leaving and will be there in about 20 minutes. Arrives 30 minutes later. Comes to the door, no apologies, no introduction or telling what he is going to be doing. Then when I ask he gives a very brief description, when I ask how long will it take, he says 'dunno'. Thanks for your personality of a fish and annoying the start to my day!

Oh, that's awful! I didn't know that either. Dave Ramsey has some great tips for dealing with collectors and pushy loan people like that. I hope they get off your back soon. You can have my TP for this!

curve31 · October 2014

Thanks! I'll have to look into what he has to say. My parents did his class though their church when I still lived at home. So I learned all the Dave Ramsey basics. I wish we could pay it off like a gazelle but dang, its almost like another mortgage.

BunnyBerry · October 2014

@allielb83 That is so crazy!! Yikes. I'm really sorry!

mshandlebar · October 2014

@amymckenzie555 Yup, that explains how I feel 100%

allielb83 · October 2014

haha I'm glad I made a few people laugh

And we weren't close to her so I can def see the humour in it.
Sorry wasn't clear. The ground was frozen in April, thawed for the summer and now that its about to freeze again so I guess they are getting the push on to bury the poor dear.

chicory · October 2014

TP to a crappy situation with one of my clients. His dog is sick because it's morbidly obese (weighs 60# when it should weigh 20.) We've been working for months to get weight off this dog and started it on a prescription diet. Owner has a variety of physical and mental disabilities and is extremely hard to work with, but he loves his dog. Client is swearing up and down (literally, YELLING swearing at me) today that he feeds the dog NOTHING but the rx food we sell him. (I'm sorry, but there is no way in hell that the TWELVE pounds of prescription dog food you've bought from us in the last SIX months has lasted that long and has been the only thing your dog was eating. If it was, you would have run out months ago and your dog would have withered away, not gained 10#.) Obviously I didn't say that to his face. I am starting to think the caretakers and nurses coming to his home are buying the dog crap food and he just thinks the rx stuff has lasted that long. That or he is so out of it that he doesn't remember what else he feeds the dog. I feel helpless and the dog is the one suffering.

Oh, I see. Have they been looking all summer to find him? That's crazy! The cemetery doesn't have a map or anything??

Hollowvic · October 2014

*****child mentioned***** @allielb83‌ I'm sorry but that made me laugh too. I know it's not funny, but I've never heard of a cemetery losing a deceased person. Well my TP goes to the people who live above me who let their toddler run around and bang on their piano until around 11:30 every night. Then he woke me up at 4am. I said something to the father when I saw him in the driveway and his response was, yeah he likes to get up in the middle of the night and play. Really? Not even an apology. I give up, I can't wait until we can move.

I know, it's Friday, but I missed this yesterday, and I would really like to throat punch...

1- My therapist, who told me a story about how her son and his wife are trying to decide whether or not to have a second child... WTF, therapist?! W.T.F?!

2- My OB, who said to me at my last appointment "You're still young and you've got lots of time." I've been stewing about that for weeks and thought I'd get over it, but I'm not. F you, OB.

3- My MIL, who keeps suggesting that I see some woman she knows who can realign my uterus to make "more fertile." My uterus is in the normal position. My HSG confirmed that. It's science. However, she is completely convinced this is the answer to my IF problems.

4- My insurance company, who said they would pay for my HSG on the day before I had it done, but in a lovely turn of events has changed its mind, and I am now going to have to pay for it 100% OOP.

5- My bank account, for not spontaneously generating money so I can just bleed cash to pay for above HSG among other things.

I'm sorry

You've had a rough go of things.
