Who is a twatwaffle in your life today?

onesmallcoconut · October 2017

Dayhome.
I booked today off work because it's my bday and I don't like working on my bday if I can help it.
So what happens? I get a message at 5:30am today that dayhome is closed because the lady who runs it is sick. I know i should be sympathetic but dammit there goes my "me time".

My husband befriended the Jehovah Witnesses that come to our door. They just came knocking and I really should have hopped in the shower instead of answered. Now they ruined my hope of a shower before I have to go pick up my youngest from preschool. I'm angry.

Mine for today is the stupid drug company. They put out 'queries', basically can you fix this or give more detail for this answer? And I have 30928495 of them today (that's a bit of an exaggeration). They want me to change Primary Mitochondrial Disease to Primary Mitochondrial Myopathy for every patient's medical history.

Every kids parent in my sons Kindergarten class. We're actually throwing him a bday party this year , usually we just do something as a family, and he wanted to invite his class. Not one person has RSVPd.

Then again I think my boys have only went to two in there years of school... bit still.
This is my babies last birthday as my baby... and he wants fucking friends!!!!!

One of my student's parents is driving me up the wall this year. She's the one who said the bullshit gender stereotype nonsense to me on Saturday... Every single time I see her she says that J needs a sibling. Every. Single. Time. I keep telling her that we don't want to have another child right now but she keeps telling me I'm wrong for that, and it's not fair to him.

I won't announce to the students until I'm almost into my third trimester because of the jinx she put on me.

First of all, get out of my uterus. Second of all, we didn't want to have another kid for a few years so I could savor this time of just me and J. Third of all, it's none of anyone else's business how and when we decide to procreate.

I had six younger siblings and I didn't really feel close to my parents after a certain point. My sister who is closest in age to me is eighteen months younger, and had colic, and my parents divorced until I was about six, so my mom put me in therapy for a while because I became so detached from her, and everyone else in our family... I'm fine now. Mostly. I'm not very close to my mom now because she's pretty religious and uses that as an excuse to be homophobic and racist.

My husband last night:

"I think it's a girl this time because you're being a b----. I mean, more than last time. What I mean is you're just more hormonal.... More than last time. WOW I'M GOOD AT THIS. Do you want anything? What do you want cleaned in the house tomorrow? I'm just going to stop talking."

Wise choice, honey. Wise choice. He's lucky my hormonal butt was laughing at what an idiot he was.

My cat is being an even bigger asshole than usual. We were on vacation for 2 weeks so I get that he missed his people but fuuuuuuuuuuuck. Give me a break. You do not need to literally be ON me and licking me every moment of the day. Go get a fucking hobby!

I'm cracking up today, kids. I swear my husband is going to come home to me in tears. I can feel it.

yesthisiskim0401 · October 2017

@brittneyla out of 11 kids we invited, 2 actually RSVP'ed. One person randomly showed up to the party. I'm still raging that 8 people think it's acceptable to ignore my child. I'm so sorry, I hope you get lots of last minute RSVP's.

cups4 · October 2017

Why does the bump think it's acceptable to tell me I'm 10 weeks and 7 days tomorrow when I will actually be 11 weeks on Thursday, not 11 weeks 1 day???? My due date is correct MFs

Put a statue of the Virgin Mary on your front step. They will never come back. It worked for us.

@maamy1231 - my DH is famous for saying dumb shit like that and talking himself into a hole

my TW is for people who feel the need to ask if my pregnancy was planned.
1. How is that even almost your business?
2. What does it matter?

For some reason this question is annoying me more than usual lately...

charlestonchew · October 2017

@glitzandglitter it is a weird question. Maybe people want to gauge your feelings on the subject before they offer their congrats/other feelings. I don't know. I do find people ask the weirdest questions when I tell them, almost like they feel like they have to ask a question to sound interested and they say whatever comes to mind. I had told my boss I just found out I was pregnant and he asked if I knew what I was having. Uh, no. I just found out. I just found that a weird first question.

I realize that my anger probably comes from my irrational fear of vomit but I’m pissed at my BIL and SIL for bringing my nephew around my son tonight after he’s been throwing up since Friday. We saw them Saturday and she told me he had been sick the night before once. I was kinda mad but whatever. But then after my son had been playing with him for a couple hours tonight she tells me he’s been throwing up every day since then, including A LOT through the night last night. I don’t want the stomach bug in my house ever but especially not while I’m not feeling good. And I know he could just as easily pick up the bug anywhere but I’m hormonal and allowed to cry about it (privately), right?

We had a friend write and publish a book and ask all of us to buy it. We intended on it until we clicked on the Amazon link and it was $49.99 for a 168 page paperback. Yeah, no.

bwow615 · October 2017

@mrt723 not irrational at all to be upset with your family for that. I would be pissed too. No one needs to knowingly bring their sick kid anywhere that it's possible for them to get another kid sick.

@mileswithmyles umm that's unheard of, my guess is they aren't going to sell many copies at all

theletlers · October 2017

Sorry my rant is long, feel free to scroll to the next! But...My MIL sort of inserted herself into our living arrangements and finances a couple of weeks ago by saying to my DH "well you guys can't stay here, right? What's the plan?" Side note: while yes our apartment isn't huge we can stay here if we want to...our family, our choice. But he told her we are working on paying off some debt before we buy a house but hopefullt next spring/summer buying a house. She said she would pay the debt, but she wants to be the one to do it all because she doesn't think we are responsible enough with money. She gave us some from an account that goes to my DH when she passes a couple of years ago when I wasn't working and money was tight and feels we didn't use the money right I guess. You know, we paid a few hospital bills from my DS's birth and surgery at five months and paid our rent and utilities for a few months. I guess those aren't good enough reasons to use money. But a big part of me just wants to tell her a big problem we have always had with money is that it took me five years of being married to her son who had no idea how to properly use money and how our marriage started out horribly because he literally did not understand how bills get paid that it's her fault for never teaching him to be responsible with money. (Also that not everyone chooses money as a factor in a spouse and continues to "marry up" as I call it. She is on her fifth marriage and each man has been more wealthy than the last one. And in between husbands she pretty much always had boyfriends to take her out to eat, buy her things, take care of her, etc.)
But anyway, I politely told her (in a text-she never answers my calls) we appreciated the offer but are okay and want to work on our finances on our own. She won't even respond to my text. She has not even asked me about how the pregnancy is going since we told her weeks ago. I think it bothers me so much because she has told me on multiple occasions since my DS was born that she would never love another child of ours as much as she loves DS. I'm not particularly close to her nor do I want to be, but she will always be my kids grandmother and it's not fair for me to stand between them having a relationship. But she is just so frustrating!! Sorry it was long.
