What The Hell Wednesday

Wednesdays are great for Wordless and Wordful posts, but we decided to go a different route and create our own Wednesday fun. We figured what the hell. That’s how we started What The Hell Wednesday. Who are we kidding? That’s pretty much how we decide on almost everything. If you want to play along, grab our button on the sidebar, link up to us in your post and don’t forget to sign in to the linky below. Really, what the hell?

I had some really good ideas for today’s post, but since I neglected to write them down I completely forgot what they were. What The Hell??

 Last night I went to J-man’s back to school night. I rushed to get there after work and I went to his classroom first instead of to the cafeteria where they were introducing all the teachers. Been there done that. The halls were empty and quiet except for the annoying squeaking coming from my new shoes! What The Hell??!! I couldn’t sneak anywhere to save my life in these things. Every single step was echoing in the halls. I attempted to walk quieter but ended up walking like Frankenstein with squeaky shoes! Ugh! I’ve never noticed the problem at work but probably all the noise from the barking dogs covers it up.

Last week I said to my husband “We really need to get out more. Go someplace fun.”  

 Bad idea. This is where we went. What the Hell??!! A Heavy Metal Battle of the Bands. I’m seriously not a fan of heavy metal by any stretch of the imagination

Since I was noticeably absent from last week’s WTH, I knew I had to write it this week!  Although at this moment, I’m so half asleep who knows what it will say!  Last week was Thing 1 and Thing 2’s Open House at School.  I of course ran into parents I knew from when Thing 2 played football.  One of them asked how he was and what he was doing.  I said, “well he’s playing soccer, he was sick of being hurt and beat up last year in football, soccer is a much safer sport.”  Twenty minutes later I received a text that Thing 2 jammed his fingers and couldn’t move them.  What the Hell?  Two weeks into the season and he’s already injured?  He had x-rays done, and luckily it was negative, but he did sprain his index, middle and ring finger!  Pretty soon I should be on a first name basis with the nurses in the ER!

Thing 1’s Open House was okay.  This year because he is in 8th Grade, he gets to go to Washington D.C.  The teacher was talking about it and passed out the permission slip.  One parent asked when the deposit was due and the teacher said, “Well you can bring it in tomorrow”.  What the Hell?  Tomorrow you want me to give you a $100 deposit?  Like hell I am!  Sorry, I’m sure there are people that can do that, but there are a lot of other people who budget their money (especially when you get paid every 2 weeks).  So, I’ll send in that deposit a week later, I’m sure I’m not the only one!

A couple days ago there was a story on the news about a 5th grader that had an American flag taken away from him.  There was outrage from parents, the news really played it up, it was so Unpatriotic, etc etc.  The school gave the reason that because it had a sharp point at the top, that’s why they took it away.  Maybe they took it away because the boy had “issues” and could’ve stabbed someone with it.  But that same day the school sent home a letter that a student had a BB gun at school.  What the Hell???  So, a child has a pointy flag taken away from them for safety reasons, and NOT for being Unpatriotic, but hey, who cares about the BB gun!  Good job local news!
