My boss gets my twatwaffle award for today. I came back from grabbing my lunch and I have an email from her asking me to come into a really annoying meeting that she hadn't even put on my calendar. So I had to sit in the stupid meeting for 45 minutes while my lunch got cold. Then, at the end of it, she asked me what I was drinking in a baffled tone. I'd gotten a cherry sprite zero in a clear cup from the soda mixer machine at the lunch place, so it was pretty bright red. Then she laughed and said that her twelve year old nephew really likes the soda mixer machines. DUDE. CHERRY SPRITE ZERO IS A GROWN UP DRINK. Especially for grown up pregnant ladies who are trying to cut way back on their diet coke and really want something with a little bit of flavor.
DH and I: Early/mid 30s Married 7/15
TTC #1 as of 8/15
BFP 11/21/15 -- MC confirmed 12/1/15 BFP #2 2/18/16
My DH gets a text message the other day from our nephews grandmother (his moms side) and she asks if my DH could take our nephew to see WWE Raw in a few weeks. Of course my DH can't say no to him, so today I buy the tickets for them to go. Come to find out, after DH texts nephews mom to let her know we got the tickets and double check he's on school break, that it was actually our nephew who posed as his grandmother and tricked us into buying him tickets. Which then his mother explains that he's not allowed to see these shows anymore or watch them on TV, because he's been acting out in school and being a little punk. Needless to say I wasn't happy that I just dropped over $200 for these stupid tickets for a little twatwaffle punk!! And my DH is a twatwaffle too for not listening to me when I told him to ask the mother first to make sure it was OK for him to go. I can't believe we got played by a 9 yr old. I sort of gotta give it to him....ballsy kid, ballsy.

If that were my kid, he'd be paying you back with actual money or chores.
My coworker wins the award on this one. It happened right after my BFP but I'm still salty about it. I save plastic bags for my clients (to use as garbage bags) and I brought in a whole bunch one day. My coworker calls me 2 days later and says, "So was the test positive or negative?" I ask wtf she's talking about. She says, "The pregnancy test box you left in the plastic bags! Was it positive or negative?" Apparently the empty pg test box landed in the plastic bag pile instead of the garbage (next to each other). I was too dumbfounded to respond so she just responded with, "Congratulations! Don't worry, your secret is safe with me." I was FURIOUS. This coworker is notorious for having a big mouth and no filters, especially around clients. So far, I haven't heard anything from our clients, but I know it's only a matter of time.

My MIL is a real gem. Last night DH was talking to her on speakerphone and she made a comment about how excited she was for her baby to be here in October.

NOPE! Shut that down ASAP. Maybe I'm hormonal but that shit makes me ragey.

Can the award go to an inanimate object? I've become obsessed (even moreso) with baths since getting pregnant - it's replaced my old habit of having a couple of glasses of wine in the evening, as that is frowned upon when knocked up (please note: I am simplifying why wine isn't allowed for comedic purposes).
ANYWAYS, the bath in our bathroom is the tiniest bath in existence. I'm not sure why the people who built the house thought it was workable, but it's like bathing in a thimble. It's an experiment every time to see what's more comfortable, having my legs submerged or my upper half because both aren't happening at the same time.
@AllyTheKid I am 100% with you. My husband and I are constantly go go go. I am pretty sure it will slow down once summer gets here hopefully. But I feel like a twatwaffle for wishing time would pass faster.
The nurse in the ER yesterday gets my twatwaffle vote this week. I was stuck on a stretcher in the hall forever because they had no rooms available yet. As if that didn't already suck, this one nurse walks by, looks at me and says nothing, then sees my husband and slows down, tilts her head, and says "Hi!" in the most obnoxious, drawn out manner I've ever heard. My husband looked at her like she was crazy and I gave her major stink eye as she passed! Then she did it again on the way back, totally ignored me and got as close to my husband as possible to say hi to him again!
I was so annoyed. I'm siting right there, I'm pregnant and in the ER....and you're going to hit on my husband?! The hospital will already be hearing from me about the horrible experience I had, you can bet they'll hear about her too. I caught her name because once I finally had a room, she was my nurse. They will definitely hear about the unprofessionalism.
Whoever hacked into my Dominos Pizza account and used my Free Pizza reward is a TW. No forreal! I checked my email this morning and it said I made a purchase last night at midnight for a two pizzas and two sides of ranch in Vegas (I live in Houston.) I log into the account and those bastards took my free pizza, didn't use my stored credit cards but paid cash. I had to change my password but I wrote Dominos. I've been craving pizza so that free pizza reward was rightfully earned!!!!
My bank is a twatwaffle today. DH gets a letter yesterday saying they are closing his bank account, but give no reason why. Today he goes to the bank to figure out what's going on. This isn't the bank we opened the account with, so they have to call the other branch (in another city). Of course the woman who wrote us the letter is on vacation, and the branch manager would give NO details about why the account is being closed.
Then DH texts me to say that they aren't just closing his account, but mine too. Huh? What is going on? I've banked here for five years with no problems, so this is just weird.
I think it has something to do with my DH, because when we opened his account we also added him to my account. He is in the process of applying for his green card, so has no SSN yet, so we're thinking that might have something to do with it, but if he isn't allowed to have an account, why did they let him open one?
We'll be spending tomorrow figuring out what the hell is going on. I'm hoping it'll be an easy fix, like just taking DH off my account so at least we can save mine. If not, I'll be spending the day closing that account and opening a new one at a new bank.
My Twatwaffle for today is a stupid pending gender reveal party. I don't care for one, I think it's a waste of time, money, and much planning all for a penis or vagina. DH and I initially agreed we didn't care to do one, then my sister wanted to do it since she was last to call dibs on a baby shower. So DH and I initially agreed just to use the cake idea, and just have it be a small affair. NOW...it's a whole ordeal with my sister wanting to go above and beyond, DH wanting us to travel hours away so his whole extended family and friends can come...not to mention I've been holding out from even telling my mom about the party since it's guaranteed that she'll have some negative comment about not planning it herself or harassing me to tell her the gender earlier. We got the gender results envelope today from our genetic test...very tempted to open it and say "F it" to the whole mess.

I had so much fun at our gender reveal party. At a shower you're forced to do so many thing like games and gifts. We were able to chill with our family and friends and had a nice enjoyable time.
My Twatwaffle is the office manager at our mortgage company. I called to speak with him about an issue we've had with our loan officer (we've gotten two pre-approvals for two different mortgages, everything was good, we put down earnest money, paid for an inspection and appraisal, only to be told in the end coming the loans are denied for reasons that they should have seen on our credit report one of the four times they've pulled it), and the entire time he talked down to me like I am a moron and praised "his guys" for being the best in sales...well obviously not because they wouldn't have fucked up so bad!!!

I am so sorry, I would be absolutely livid... you don't need that kind of stress right now, or ever honestly that's bullshit =(

That really sucks. I would be livid if we'd spent all that money on an inspection and appraisal only to have the house denied us in the eleventh hour. Buying a house is so stressful anyway. I hope you guys get something figured out.

This literally has me dying. Especially the Jessica Lawrence reaction. LOL
