tmi, but I'm not cutting, because you're all going to suffer along with me

I've got a period coming up for days now, but it just won't make that last step into actually starting already dammit.

So, naturally, I'm cranky as all hell.

*annoys the fucking bejeezus out of everyone*

oh I remember those well. I remember being so proud when I got my first one -what an idiot! Thankfully those bits are no longer with me -the relief!! I often think if there is a Creator, he was having an off day when he got round to thinking about periods -either that or he has a dreadful sense of humour. And if there isn't, we need to evolve more.

Whoever is responsible for the design of the female body, clearly forgot the on and off switch for certain functions. Also; it starts too soon and keeps on going too long. *grumbles*

I've been waiting for mine for several days as well...and it's here now *curls up on sofa*

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

Things finally got going, geez.

(Good thing there are painkillers for the cramps. For the crankiness there's of course fanfiction...)

*pets*

*offers chocolate*

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

I'm not really a chocolate kind of girl (I indulged in dill pickles this weekend), but I'll take the pets, thank you.

*substitutes dill pickles*

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

Excellent! *crunches*

Ah, sweetie, I'm sorry to hear that. I used to take a hot bath and then curl up with the heating pad when I got like that. Don't know that it made the period come any faster, but it was comforting.

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

I curled up with some of the printed fanfiction I've got specifically for these occasions; works even better than a heating pad :D

Last time that happened to me it turned out I was pregnant. I'm just saying, it could be worse!!!

:-)

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

Aaaaaaaargh! Yeah, that definitely would be worse!! Good thing that since Mr. RC had a 'minor surgery' that won't happen again.

[primula-baggins.livejournal.com]

*pets you* I *hate* that so much! It's just an awful thing and it shouldn't be allowed. I hope it starts for you today.

*big hugs*

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

And it did start today *phew*

[justinetre.livejournal.com]

This calls for hot water bottles and a warm both methinks :D

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

And more importantly; porn and wine :D

[justinetre.livejournal.com]

And perhaps a snippet or two of liquorice?

[hobbitlove83.livejournal.com]

Yikes, hon, I remember that all too well!!
I was going to say lots more, but Ladysunrope put it much more eloquently than I could have done-
bless her!

Methinks some pr0n is needed... you know why, right?

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

Ah, my thought exactly!!

[zoniduck.livejournal.com]

Dude, what the hell? I was supposed to start on Monday or Tuesday, but I didn't start until yesterday. Nice to know it's not just me.

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

I wonder if we can blame some planet alignment or something (I'm basically clueless about these things.)

[darklock.livejournal.com]

OMG... I just finished mine. And, I wanted to BITE everyone. I thought I was done... done, done, done... but, noooooo... either bite everyone or wait until they line up at a check out and shove them over like dominoes. On the opposite end of the spectrum... EVERYONE is good looking and I want to lick them all. Grrr.

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

Ahahahah! That kind of bite, yeah, I get that during my period. Which is right about now...

Awesome icon by the way.

[samena.livejournal.com]

Oh no, you too? I've had that for weeks, before it actually arrived last week. With false alarms and everything. My sister says it's probably the onset of menopause. Eep.

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

If menopause means no more periods then I say; bring it on!

[samena.livejournal.com]

I think that's what it means, yeah. ;) If it wasn't for hormonal imbalances and hot flashes, I'd say bring it on, too, because it's not as if I'm going to use my reproductive system anymore, anyway.

I said 'eep' because I'm 41, and menopause usually starts around 50, I think? But I guess it varies?

[rodneyscat.livejournal.com]

I'm 45, and menopause doesn't usually start then, but I really wouldn't mind if it did! It's got to happen some time anyway, so better get it done sooner rather than later. Menopause starts late in my family though (55/56), so I'm not holding my breath...
