Re: WTF Wednesday

  • WTF to my clueless cousin... Lately whenever she comes over with her newborn she talks to him in baby talk and says things like "auntie jess will never have a little miracle like you!"

    Granted this is this same cousin that told me "you should just adopt, and put yourself on a list that says you'll take babies with special needs, because they put preemies on that list. You were a preemie and you don't think you're special needs, right?"

    :(:(:(

  • WTF RE's office.  I have a payment plan with you, contracted and agreed upon at the start of our treatment. I pay it on time every month. WTF do I get a call from a collection agency that you turned me over to collections.  Then tell me oops sorry that was a mistake.  And then ask if I want to pay my balance in full.  Really?

  • @jessmacdonald13 that is a HUGE WTF.  I also give you multiple TPs for that cousin.  She would be banned from my house immediately.

    @kushie77 that's awful!  I would be so ticked since that kind of stuff messes with your credit rating!

    AFM - I'll WTF myself for the funk I can't seem to get out of.  You'd think with a medicated cycle finally just a few weeks ago I'd be feeling positive about all this for the first time in months, but instead I feel more defeated than ever and I'm not sure why.

  • @iputketchuponketchup thanks for the laughs this morning!  I had ignored her post when I saw it yesterday because I had the same thoughts as you regarding her lack of actual participation.  So, when I saw your post here it was some good entertainment to read through her horribleness.  Thanks for calling her out!

  • WTF progesterone supp induced symptoms! The vivid dreams, constipation, swollen gums, emotional roller coaster ride, and constant white vaginal dripping can stop any damn time now. Yuck! I think I may test at 12dpiui and stop them if it's negative. I certainly don't want to prolong this cycle any longer than necessary. Sorry for everyone else's wtf's today that are causing emotional distress and sadness or rage. I am feeling all of those things, I know that for sure. :(

    Jan '15 Starting the process for Foster to adopt!

     

  • Thanks ladies.  It's sorted, thankfully it didn't hit my credit report.  But it took 2 hours of my life a half a dozen phone calls to get it sorted out. The collections girl was really nice, now the financial lady at the RE's office was a bitch, but when I called her out on the fact that it was her error and I would be calling the BBB her tune changed pretty darn fast.

  • @theholmanherd - work is so stupid sometimes, I'm sorry about your upcoming schedule.

    @jessmacdonald13, Dafuq is wrong with your cousin?! She shouldn't be allowed in your house, or really anywhere near you with that kind of behavior. Some humans are just the worst. I, too, hope you verbally beat her down.

    @BlueFairy5, the wait for pcp stuff is so annoying. It would seem that it should be relatively easy to know if they're in network or not?

     @rainbowbridge14, you probably already thought of this, but how are your shoes? I just started having IT band problems and realized my shoes are over a year old and well-used. I also got on of those stick things and it has helped tremendously! And it's easier for me then my foam roller.

    @kushie77, boo to the RE financial lady. I don't understand how someone can think it's ok to be a jerk when they're the one at fault, honestly.

  • Ok my WTF goes to my dentist and my orthopedic doctor. So since I had cancer and chemo my teeth are terrible. I was scheduled to have a cleaning today at 8 am. I even mentioned to my ortho dr that I was going, he said nothing.  I hate early morning appointments especially when I am up all night like last night. Anyhow I get there and they tell me that since I had a hip replacement I can not have my teeth cleaned for at least 6 months and then I have to take antibiotics for at least two years anytime I go to the dentist. So I left.. Oh and my dental insurance runs out in December .. great. So WTF to my ortho for not telling me and to my dentist... and to not sleeping .. ugh!

I almost lost it a couple of times talking about conception and babies, I vowed to never teach this class again until I get KU or ....(I won't even put that other thought out into the universe).

  • @jessmcdonald13 - my head exploded when I read this.

    @shafwilson - IF is a roller coaster. I am so sorry your are in a funk, but sometimes funk happens. I hope you get excited about your upcoming cycle soon or else I hope it works and you never have to think of this crap again.

    @TTCBabyJ - just say no!! And shame on your dean for making you feel guilty.

    @mmurt - please tell me YH at least apologized for not giving you warning. Also, your boss sounds like a real peach. Get out of the 1940s, yo, and treat your employees with respect.

    WTF boss and co-worker for not giving me a heads up that the new girl they just hired is pregnant. Thanks for that. Especially since they both know about the shit with the new RE and the cyst. On Monday, I cried every time one of them looked at me, so why did they not think this would bother me??? Also WTF office manager! I do not care that your daughter's unborn child has a penis. And yes, this smile is fake!!!

  • Wow, saline ultrasound girl sounds like a treat! Being new to this board, I have received the most amazing support and advice from you all. It's a good reminder to me as a newbie to pay it forward as well.

    My WTF goes to my in-laws who watched our doggie this weekend so we could go to Milwaukee to celebrate DH's birthday. He was there for a whopping 24 hours and has been shitting his brains out and throwing up ever since. (Gross warning...) There are times when he is just shitting blood. I called the vet in a panic, brought in a stool sample and spoke to the doctor over the phone. He said this is a normal reaction if he ate something he shouldn't have. DH called his parents (who have been told MANY times that our doggie has a sensitive stomach and can eat ONLY his food), who said "Oh, we have no idea...we fed him Buddy's (their dog) food and treats all weekend!" Um...hello...not his food. We have let him every 20-30 minutes and still cleaned up more ick than I can count. If he continues tomorrow, we will have to take him in. Poor doggie :(
