WTF Wednesday?
I know I'm not everyone's favorite person on here, but I really needed to WTF.
The past few days I've been really anxious and sick to my stomach, vomiting and what not. Today is the first day that I've been able to not throw up when I woke up, yet I missed my alarm and woke up at 8:30 when I have to be at work at 8:30, so needless to say I was a half hour late and I can't get alert. I'm so groggy! WTF.
Aye karramba.
Re: WTF Wednesday?
We don't not like you Air--we're just worried about you and want you to make the best decisions for yourself
Sorry you're feeling crummy. Talk to your dr, maybe you need a tweak in your meds.
Here's mine:
WTF self? You can spend hours fixing other people's resumes and playing on the nest but can't get your own together? Stop being so lazy and self sabotaging! You better write those cover letters today before I beat yo' ass!
WTF small town? I have been applying for every job that has been posted, and even some that are not, and have received NO calls. I am more than qualified for any of these positions. Please stop giving your friends jobs and wasting your own advertising dollars.
WTF body? First it's an appendix, then a potential ovarian cyst. I just do not need more on my plate right now.
I know how you feel! I moved across the country and it's very "clicky" here... Pretty much if you don't know somebody you don't get called which REALLY sucks!!!! The one company posted, I had everything they were looking for PLUS in the preferred part they wanted someone who knew a certain program. I had that clearly listed, Thought for sure I'd at at least get a call... Nope! So I feel your pain! Hang in there!!!
Wow, so NOT okay...and super creepy.
I haven't seen all of your posts so I'm not sure what's going on. And I am in no way a doctor. When I had anxiety issues right after the divorce, I went to the doctor but I didn't want to get on a daily medicine for depression. My doctor put me on propanalol, which is a beta blocker. It helps to control some of the symptoms of the anxiety, and you only have to take it when you need it.
Again - NOT A DOCTOR here. Just my experience.
WTF is wrong with people?
I have a few WTFs... I'm stepping out of my assistant chief position over an email that came today regarding a situation I just can't support. I'm waiting on a call back from a potential job. My current employer spends 99% of their time gossiping about me because they feel guilty about laying us off but I'm the only one that "doesn't have a man to support her." Well guess what, if I was still married he wouldn't be able to support me either...
Seriously! That's nuts!
It's really sad huh? The last job I had was because my cousin worked there and they were looking so I got the job-with NO INTERVIEW!
MY WTF WED:
I went to a 20's/30's group last night and there were many people. I keep my calendar busy with volunteer and stuff... Why do I still feel so lonely? I am tring to be open and reaching out but it seems harder to connect.
Yeah, I was switched from Wellbutrin to Prozac and it seems to be helping a lot, but sometimes I get so much anxiety that I'm so sick. I've got a psychiatrist appointment on Black Friday and we're going to discuss that issue, and I need to bring up that I'm 90% sure I have an eating disorder. It's been something that has been an issue with me since I was about 12 or 13 years old, but recently I haven't noticed my behavior until my boyfriend pointed it out. He told me that he has only seen me eat twice in a week and we're together a lot of the time. I've been "forgetting" to bring lunch to work and I'm just not hungry, but basically when I try to eat anything, I cannot force myself to swallow it. Prozac is supposed to supress your appetite, so it could be that, but I'm having issues with food. I lost 60 lbs since June, and I'm deathly afraid of gaining weight, but it's probably a whole part of the "I Hate Myself" club I've been in lately. Ugh. I'm a hot mess.
I have so many issues I need to iron out and I think it's going to be a long long road ahead of me.
WTF self? First it was the baby fever and now it's marriage fever. I've found myself scanning over sections of the knot looking for ideas eventhough we are far from this chapter. We've only been dating 4 months!
At least the baby fever has gone away. I had my son and my cousin who is only 4 days younger than my son. I got a dose of what having twins is like and it scared me to the point of not wanting a baby for awhile.
Oh I have another one: WTF DCSS? XH deposited the CS on October 31st and it still is not in my account yet. Really? Get your shiit together. I have direct deposit so it should not take this long. I would've thought XH hadn't deposited when he said he did if I didn't confirm with them yesterday that he actually did deposit it last Monday.
Oh and WTF cable/high speed internet company. So glad you double charged me for two months. It's nice that you credited my account but you also made me overdraw my bank account and my bank had to sweep $100 from savings thereby charging me a $10 transfer fee. At least they agreed to credit me an additional $10 but still, they suck, big time.
WTF to a co-worker to comes to me every time I do a status update on FB. He needs further explanation every time.
Oh, you saw a spider cricket? Where? What are you going to do about it? Do you want a recommendation?
WTF justice system! Why can;t a judge just look at my case and decide that we should be divorced and X is an idiot!
I am so tired of delays... I know it will happen soon, but I am over it. I feel like I will never get divorced
Ugh, I'm so sorry Becca! Hang in there!
lol!
I have a WTF. WTF, STOMACH? Why can't you act like a normal stomach and not get upset at the random drop of a hat? Sadly, I think BCP might have something to do with this chronic problem of mine...
That is hilarious! I don't tell my partner at work ANYTHING because he thinks he has ALL the answers and wants to give me advice on everything. It is so annoying. I can't stand this guy.
WTF to my stress level!!
My certification test is wicked soon and I don't feel ready. STILL haven't heard a decision from the company I interviewed back in September. Sent out 7 more resumes. So exhausted last night I was in bed at 9pm. Still feel tired today. No time for nesting because of everything I have to do.
I miss everyone!

WTF weather. I did not anticipate waking up to 5 inches of snow this morning. My feet are still soaked from my trek across the parking lot that was not plowed.
Although, DS's look of awe when he saw the snow was pretty darn cute, so maybe it was worth it.
