Today, I woke up to find that my cat had knocked over a $35 can of powdered baby formula, and there were TWO different colonies of ants warring over the bounty all over the counter. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, after weeks of wondering if my cat has a fetish for licking my bed covers, I finally witnessed him licking up an ant off of the covers. Turns out that my bed is infested with ants. FML
Today, I woke up, got up, and felt something crunchy under my feet. My son thought it would be funny if he spread cat litter all around the house. Used cat litter. FML
Today, I found thousands of ants in a secret nest in an unused corner of my apartment. They were feeding on the baking mix I forgot in a box from moving in two months ago, and the queen has been laying her eggs on my wireless router. FML
Today, I woke up to find that my cat had barfed all over my laptop's keyboard and screen, filling each nook and cranny of the stuff. As if that wasn't bad enough, when I went to make coffee to deal with the stress, I found that I was out of coffee. FML
Today, I went to visit my grandmother. My grandfather recently died, so I had gotten her a cat for comfort. Turns out in her sadness, she had forgotten about the cat. I found its remains being eaten by ants and birds. FML
Today, I was woken up at 5:15 AM to the lovely sounds of my cat barfing in three different places on my bedroom carpet. FML
Today, I found some Nesquick Chocolate Milk mix in my pantry which sounded good. While making a glass, I got angry because not all of the mix would disolve. Frustrated, I downed the drink. When I finished I looked in the glass and realized the mix that wouldn't disolve was actually tiny ants. FML
Today, I awoke to my cat with micro pellets all over him. He'd destroyed a pillow containing them, and now there are thousands of these pellets throughout the entire house. My vacuum is broken. FML
Today, my roommate finally cleaned her cat's very full litter box. I later found our only good spatula crusted with kitty feces, which she'd left on the kitchen counter for me to find. FML
Today, I found a horde of ants in one of my socks when I put it on my foot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

All you need now is a colony of acid-shooting termites to kill off all the ants except for one of coarse and you should name him Z.

As a "breastfeeding Nazi" I would have said to breastfeed instead of use formula in the past. I breastfed my children past a year old. Until I had my daughter. She was born with tons of allergies, dairy protein, soy, rice intolerance, and many other foods. I even went as far as doing the elimination diet but my milk started drying up because I wasn't able to eat anything but turkey and sweet potatoes. After 3 months of this and a lot of depression because of feeling like a total failure I ended up having to go ahead and give her the prescription formula because even with me doing the diet she was still getting sick all the time and having a lot of problems. Within a month of her being on the formula her eczema got a little better, she stopped pooping blood, and was not longer colicky all the time. Now I have learned not to judge when someone says they are giving their baby formula.

Obviously you've gained some perspective, so this isn't necessarily aimed at you, but this is what really bugs me about people who have a barrow to push, whether it be religious, political, philosophical or whatever. They walk around being jerks to people, then years later, gain a bit of perspective, realise they were wrong and just shrug it off, whereas they should be made to go around to everyone they've unloaded on and personally apologise. Just imagine if you were at your lowest point, with a sick, colicky baby that had you at the end of your tether, all the while that you're feeling like a failure and a bad mother because you can't control the situation, then some high-handed person comes up to you and rips into you for bottle-feeding your child. They could have their epiphany the next day, but you'd have to carry that around with you forever. Remember, with great douche-baggery, comes great responsibility.

the worst reaction I got was from the staff in the labor wards. I tried to breastfeed but my son was premature and couldn't get enough suction, that coupled with the fact I have inverted nipples meant he was getting only a tiny bit of milk. The staff were quite judgmental when i asked for bottles. I even had someone say "so you've given up have you?" My son lost over 10% of his birth weight in the first fortnight because of their reluctance to try bottles.

have to agree it sounds like some serious cleaning needs to be done. I have a son and if ants were invading my home I would have someone watch him to avoid him being scared or ants going into his bed or even biting him. yikes.

For some people (like me) their milk never comes in and they HAVE to bottle feed.

Oh wow, that sucks. On the other hand I think it's pretty cool to see two different colonies fighting =P
