Mother Nature is a Biotch
- I love it whenever a friend and I are on similar cycles because, as everyone knows, misery loves company. I had plans to go out with one of my girlfriends tonight, but as the evening approached, I started feeling more and more lethargic. Initially I thought it was just from the stormy weather all day, but then I started getting crampy. Shortly after that, I got a text from her saying she didn't think she wanted to go out because her PMS was kicking in. I told her I was on the same page, and then our conversation continued as follows.
- Me: Hope you feel better soon!
- Her: You too. What fun we girls have.
- Me: We take "raging" to a whole new level.
- Her: We're probably being punished for not walking tonight.
- Me: Mother Nature punishing us for not doing something that we were prevented from doing...by Mother Nature. So cruel!!!
- Her: What a biotch.
Oh, You Know, This and That
I’ve had a cold since Thursday or Friday, and I’m on my period. I also have a ton of shit to do this week. Normally under these circumstances, I would be in panic mode right now. However, I’m just going to let the cards fall where they may. There’s no sense in pushing myself too hard right now.
I stayed in on Friday night with a terrible sinus headache and fever, and I was supposed to do the Cooper River Bridge Run on Saturday morning, but I was too sick to go. Also, I found out in the middle of the night that a friend had passed away. We had just been hanging out the night before, so that really took me by surprise.
Had I known our goodbye on Thursday night would have been our last, I would have given him a much longer hug. He is definitely missed.
Today Can Suck It
On Wednesday I was ranting about someone not answering their phone when I needed, or rather, wanted a quick answer. I also mentioned that it had to do with me potentially switching schools. Well, I finally got my answer, but not because the people I needed to talk to answered their phones or called me back. I had to call a completely different department, and thankfully they knew.
Unfortunately, though, it turns out I will have to finish this semester, so I won’t be starting at the new school until June or July. That also means I have to take two tests on Monday.
Who the hell schedules the first test of the semester for the Monday after Super Bowl Sunday?!
Apparently, both my instructors.
Oldie but Goodie: F U PMS
As I mentioned in my first post-hiatus blog entry, several friends had been telling me I needed to start writing again. The following is one of the blog entries that was brought up the most, mainly for its did-she-really-just-say-that factor. And yes, I did.
It was originally posted on June 7th, 2010.
I swear, things just aren’t working out lately. I was hoping today would be the day things would turn around, but so far, it’s not looking like that is going to happen. I mean, seriously, any day that starts out with you running up the stairs holding your bleeding crotch can’t go well. It’s like an unwritten rule, but more on that later.
Super Period Fun Time Uterus Piñata
Check out the suggested reasons for using a uterus piñata.
I’d like to add one to that list: you’re bleeding and angry and need to beat the shit out of something that will deliver rewarding consequences, unlike beating the shit out of your boyfriend, dog, neighbor, or that annoying stranger that bumped into you in line at the grocery store.
Hooray for menstrual rage and candy!
