I guess it's pretty late in the day for this... but I just got a call from my brother and I am PISSED and want to get this off my chest. This might be sort of long.
My brother is best friends with his ex girlfriend... we'll call her C.
C and I were friends before she started dating my brother. After about a year of dating, C became the biggest psycho ever and ended up trying to get my brother to stop talking to our entire family.
C and I hated each other with a passion for a long time after that, mainly because she was a bitter, sarcastic biitch and she treated everyone like crap.
A while back, I heard that she had a miscarriage, underwent some type of surgery and had a nasty recovery from cervical cancer. We made contact with each other and have *sort of* supported each other through our TTC troubles through Facebook.
I mean that LOOSELY... we barely talk through Facebook... it's been months, actually. It's nice to have someone to rant about things with IRL though.
Sooooo... my brother calls me on his lunch break today, royally freaking out. Apparently, C texted him "Congratulations, you're an uncle!"
He called her to figure out where she got that information and she didn't pick up. He thought I had posted that I was pregnant on Facebook and failed to tell him. That's a big deal for him... we're close and he sort of knows what's going on in my life.
WTF?
He was so upset with me when he called, until I was able to explain to him that I'm NOT pregnant, and that if I were I would never announce it over Facebook before telling my own family.
Why would she text something like that to him?
I guess she's still a crazy biitch

#2...
I realize that this is ridiculous, but I can't help it.
I can't stand that pancake commercial with the little kids that get up in the morning and make pancakes. It's not the kids that annoy me, it's the song. I HATE that song. It is the most stupid song ever created. Next time it comes on, listen to it. It's awful and pointless and makes me want to punch kittens.
*Disclaimer: I'd never actually punch a kitten, but *that's* how annoyed I get when the song comes on.
Sorry, AT, that you have to put up with that (the faux-friend, not the kitten punching)
I am about to scream at an employee. How hard is to pick up a phone when its ringing? I recognize that you may be in the middle of something, but if the phone on your desk is ringing, and it has already rolled over from the main line, it's probably someone who needs something. So stop thinking you're more important than everyone else and answer the phone. We are all here to serve our customers.
DH just got a big ass bonus. Well, it was only 1/2 as big after taxes, but his paycheck today was more than DOUBLE. It's so awesome. I'm super happy & very proud of him.
That said, it really *** sucks ass that damn near all of that will go to the fertility clinic in the hopes of getting pregnant. Stupid freaking broken reproductive system!!! I'd rather go on vacay than be poked and prodded and filled w/ drugs.
:::::hugs:::: Yes, it does really *** suck ass, but I'm crossing my fingers (and toes, and eyes, etc.) that it works and you get a baby!
