ALLLLL of my students.... its 9 days left to go till the end of year and they are bouncing off the wall... I am hormonal... its just not a good combination... They are 13-15 years old and just idiotic right now

I just had to lecture a 15 year old student on why word kept putting a red line under nagosaki,japan (which is spelled and grammatically correct on the sheet in front of her!).... FFS and I am supposed to be teaching them nuclear chemistry and they don't even know about proper nouns or City, Country annotation!?!

I'm being a Twatwaffle. I really need to get stuff done before the nausea kicks in. But I keep procrastinating.

Aslo, people at work are being a twatwaffle for using our kitchen. Now my desk smells like overcooked rice. Ew.

Ok, venting time!! Warning: long post,

My DH announced on a local buy/sell/trade board (we live in a fairly small community) that we were looking for bunk beds. Strike 1!! We'd had this conversation, and for many reasons, including waiting until the end end of the first trimester, I wanted to wait until the end of August to start looking for them. So then he starts getting messages with people selling them (luckily no friends or acquaintances saying, "Why do you need bunk beds??"), and he wants to get one last night. Same conversation, but he's convinced we will never find another bed for such a low price, and we'd better jump on it (the price, not the bed).

So he drives the 30 minutes to go get the bed, but not before telling our two young sons "Hey! I'm going to get your new bunk beds tonight! You can sleep in them!" And it was already their bedtime right then.

He gets home an hour and fifteen minutes later, and the boys are jumping off the walls. Literally. They were playing "American Ninja Warrior" and jumping off our walls. Before he'd left, and before he'd told the boys they could sleep in the beds tonight, I'd asked him where we should keep the beds until August when we could assemble them. Because guess what? Every room has a bed in it. And I have things to do! I have a workshop tomorrow (well, tonight, Tuesday) I need to prepare for (people coming over to our house), as well as on Friday, a garage sale on Thursday, meaning our front rooms are loaded with boxes because DH won't let me move the cars out to the driveway in case it storms between now and Thursday morning, not to mention a conference I'm leaving for next week (pack and prepare for that as well as getting ready for a babysitter who will be staying overnight because a week ago my DH took an out-of-town job for when I'm going to be out of town...are you still with me?), and then we leave for our vacation two days after I get back (actually only 36 hours after I get back), so I also need to get the house ready for us to be gone for a month (fridge emptied, clean for the house sitter) AND pack for us for a month. But why not throw in bunk beds. In our guest bedroom that the boys will eventually be sharing. Meaning we had to move furniture and all my office stuff last night to make room. And then deal with our boys fighting over who got to sleep on the top bunk...at 11pm, 3 hours after bedtime since that's how long it took us to move things around and assemble the new beds. Meltdown city. And not just my boys. But go ahead and have your shower, honey. I know you worked up a sweat tonight with all that heavy lifting!! I told him I could not do any more shuffling of things until after we get home at the end of August. We have to consolidate the boys bedrooms, move my office and guest bedroom, get their new room ready, and only then can we start to plan baby's room.

Silver lining...the bunk beds are nice, my DH has been pretty patient while I've ranted at him since last night, and the boys are still sleeping now at 7:50 am while they're normally up at 6am!

Traffic is a twatwaffle. Morning rush hour is way worse than normal thanks to the rain. Uhhhh, what a crappy way to start the day.

What is it about rain that makes people go dysfunctional?! My pet peeves in the UK is that NOBODY seems to know how to drive in the snow- even if it is flurry not sticking they find a way to go off the road. Also "Leaves on the track" is a reason for train delays... seriously its a season that comes once a year every year and you can't figure out how to solve this?

We are living with my in-laws right now while our house is being built. I just want my own space. I can't go anywhere without someone in my business. And pregnancy makes me cranky, especially 1st trimester.

Whichever coworker just had a pungent poo in the office bathroom...I have been mildly nauseous all morning and that nearly made me puke. (I don't expect them to hold it all day, but I'm still gonna complain about the smell!)

I work next to a chronic throat clearer and a chronic cougher. Both are under my skin today. Do you need a drink? A cough drop? Just stop.

This 100%! They also don't seem to know how to drive when the sun is shining!

MLM schemes. My husband's cousin whom I never hear from has been contacting me every few months, trying to be nice with chit chat and finally today she zings me with "You wanna give Rodan and Fields a try? It's AMAZING!" Or there's the random person in a Facebook group who starts randomly contacting me for a few weeks, trying to get to know me (in the background I know she's with Beach Body) and then she finally asks if I want to be a part of a challenge group. Ummmmmm no people, I don't want to be a part of these products even though they're the miracle cure-all!

We live on a cattle farm and the 100 or so beef steers that escaped this morning are twatwaffles. Nothing like working a nightshift and finally falling into bed to be awoken by DH calling me less than an hour later, and telling me to put some shoes on and help chase the cattle (that are literally all over: on the road, our neighbors yard, heading down to the river) back into the barn. Ahhh life on the farm...

My co worker who shows up whenever the hell she feels like it in the morning and then leaves by 4. I'm tired of taking her customer's calls. I work in auto insurance dealing with injury claims. She's always moaning about how she has nothing to do.

Also traffic, it's a green light, green means go, green does not mean sit at the light and think about if you're going to go or not.
