WTF Wednesday
I've been telling my husband to download Norton for the last couple of months, but he didn't do it. Yesterday he's complaining about how he had a virus on his work computer - this morning he has a virus on his laptop. He's all irritated, asking "how did this happen?" Then he gets all grumpy when I tell him I'll look at it after work. Grrrh ...
Anyone else have a WTF?

Re: WTF Wednesday
Your H sounds like mine.
I am sick, and we're going on vacation tomorrow. I got sick right before I went to chicago, and right before our last trip. It is so annoying. And I can't really handle colds. It's so silly, but I get really grumpy. I am such a baby with it comes to runny noses and sore throats.
You're only encouraging my laziness.
Yep.
FI thinks we all sorts of magincal dollars somewhere and wants to fix the wiring issue in our car and trade it in...so we can make payments that we can't afford on a vehicle that we don't NEED right now, and that we'd have to have full coverage on (Um, he was the one that made the insurance jump in the first place: speeding, driving without his seatbealt, AND and he rearended someone about 2.5 years ago.) I told him sure, we can do that, but we can't eat anymore.
He shut up.
Not to mention neither one of us has spectacular credit scores (His mom devestated his as soon as he turned 18), so GL to us trying to make payments less than $200/month on a cheap vehicle, plus insurance.
Sometimes, I wonder what it would be like to live in the fantasy world that he lives in. All rainbows that sprinkle glitter and sh!t.
I have to give him some credit, though, because he is going to try to get into sales at Rooms To Go (after the girls are born, and there is a sales position open), which will 2X or 3X his bi-weekly paycheck. But still. That's then; this is now.
Why the F do people eat smelly foods in an office. Right now the smell of onions is pervading this place and I'm sure people will start commenting on it soon. No one ever fesses up, of course. I should walk through out the whole place and see who the culprit is. We also have someone who microwaves fish once a week. Seriously?
I'm not a snob, I get that sometimes foods have strong scents, and they can still be delicious. But I would never eat something with onions or fish while sitting inside my office. Eat that in your car or outside or in a restaurant. It's just not cool.
Holy crap, the cleaning lady here does that with, like, a whole fish, or something.
I keep telling her "huele mal! No mas! POR FAVOR!" She keeps telling me it's healthy.
Not for my olfactory senses. Blech.
At least you are pregnant, I had someone ask me several years ago if I was pregnant when I was not. Humph. And I swear I am showing right now and I'm less than 10 weeks! It's not like normal weight gain which is usually in my face, this is clearly all belly, so I'm sure I will get the same question soon.
I was so over people asking me if I was having twins by the end. Ugh! I feel your pain! I have had several people ask me in the past if I was KU. It used to make me cry. Now I just get mad. No one has asked me since I had Zoe, but I keep waiting for it.
I swore I was showing at 10 weeks too! Be prepared for complete strangers asking when you're due and following it up with "is everything ok? Why are you showing so soon?" But you're going to be the cute preggers girl with the cute bump, I just know it!
I was so bloated in the beginning I clearly looked 4-5 months pregnant when I was 6 weeks. We closed on our house, and at closing my realtor said, "OMG I didn't know you were pregnant - why didn't you tell me?!" It does go away, before the baby belly really takes over.
Thanks JJswife, but I have a feeling ...no, I know... I will have huge ginormous not cute boobs to go with my possibly cute bump!
Jennifer, I have been told it will go away for a few months as well as the nausea and exhaustion and that sounds wonderful! I have been pretty good for the past 3 days with the nausea, but the swollen belly is still in full effect:) It's sore and crampy also but I am guessing I should probably just get used to that part.
When do I get to see the belly? I'll bring more cupcakes:)
I went back and looked at pics. I look less pregnant at 9 weeks than I did at 5. The nausea stuck around until 20 weeks for me. But I got used to that too. The second trimester is much better than the first. Everyone warned me that the third would be bad too - but I honestly loved being pregnant - huge belly and all. It was uncomfortable, but not horrible.
