WTF Wednesday
I don't have one yet, but I always find these funny. I'll post when I think of one.
Share yours!
Re: WTF Wednesday
WTF, Friend (we'll call her K)?!
We've all be excited to see The Hunger Games for a YEAR now. Well, when my other friend sent out an email saying that we're planning on going to the 8:30 showing on opening day, K comes back and says "I'll have to see if R's (her H) available". R is her dovcher, loser H that hasn't read The Hunger Games and I wouldn't be a little bit surprised if he sits in the theater and makes fun of the movie. So already I'm annoyed. Just like when we did Happy Hour a few weeks ago (we hadn't seen each other in MONTHS) and she just had to bring R.
So, sure enough she comes back and says that because they got a baby-sitter for the day after the movie (another friend's bday celebration is that night), they can't also go to the movie. Why can't R, oh I don't know, stay home for ONE NIGHT and watch the kid he was 50% responsible for making and let his wife go to a movie she's been looking forward to for a year with friends she doesn't get to spend a lot of time with lately?!
Oh, and just as an extra added bonus... K and R are living with her parents (they moved in with her parents and then continued to TTC). K's parents watch the baby ALL the time.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. You know, you should hang out with me more often. I would NEVER do this.
WTF?! Turtleneck co-worker ordered a case of Tagalongs. She got them Monday and is already working on her fifth box (of 12). And no, she is not sharing. She made that very clear. That's 4200 calories, 270 grams of fat, and 150 grams of saturated fat since Monday. That doesn't include the mountain of "garlic cheesy bread" she's been eating today too. *hurl*
WTF? I'm 29 and have never ever ever EVER wanted kids. My bff's sister just had a little boy on Monday (named Calvin...swoon) and sent me a video of him sleeping and making adorable baby sounds on her chest. Now I have a very mild case of baby rabies, and it's terrifying. I never expected this. Also, H is 26 (27 in July) and is nowhere near even mild baby rabies. I need an inoculation.

It's not looking like our friendship is long for this world, I'll tell you that right now. And she's become a mommy martyr. We sent out an email saying that the Hunger Games showing was at 8:30. And her response was "we can't go unless it's after 7:30 because that's Baby's bedtime". It's like she was just trying to shoehorn the fact in that she has a child so her schedule is more important than ours.

WTF, highway?
Why do you have to leave entire pieces of cars lying UPRIGHT in the road? I found this delightful wonder last night after choir practice, and swerved but managed to scratch up the front left side of my car and demolish my left blinker anyway. The piece of metal was at least 3 feet tall and took up the entire lane. Come on!
OMG. Are you ok?
Got one!
WTF coworker? You just ditched me! We were supposed to do a presentation together at 3 and now you have another meeting you have to attend? Ugh. I mean, I CAN do it alone, but that doesn't mean I WANT to.
Oh no!!! Everything ok other than your car?
Imoan, does your friend not realize that 8:30 is after 7:30?
I'm fine, but the more I think about it the more freaked out I get. If I hadn't swerved, we could have been in trouble. And I hope to God no one else was hurt that night. Seriously, the thing was HUGE. I checked news reports this morning and the coast is clear, but jesus.
I'm going to Kmart over lunch for a good ol' MacGyver remedy - a new blinker bulb and duct tape to hold the thing together.
