Casey our hero??????

[BAMF!]

LOL DRAGONLADY! That's funny 'cause I have had an ex throw a pillow at me before!
I've learned from past experiences that my being an 'always trying to make ya smile' pest isnt quite as charming during 'that time of the month'!

BLUEELFIE part of my fascination came from when I actually lived with an Ex of mine for like a year-and-a-half. It was so funnny how during 'Aunt Flos' visit she'd be in "Dont bother me" mode...but like right before and after she was always at her 'friskiest'!

You Girls are such an exhilerating enigma!


Oh and Double-Ditto SUPER SONIC!


BAMF!

The only time I wish I was a guy. The bad thing about it in my house, is that me and my mom are either on it at the same time, or she's getting off when I'm getting on, or vice versa. She'll sometimes pick a fight with me when I'm on my period. (She's done this twice and not meant too.) It has ended with me crying, instead of yelling back at her, which is what normally happends. I hate being a girl sometimes I really do....

*LOL* BAMF! you know us girls love ya!

Beamie that sounds exactly like how it was between me and my mother.

So what did everyone elses moms call theyre period?Elfy already mentioned Aunt Flo .My mother said it was ether called the "curse" or your "friend" when she was a kid.My grandmother called it the "the curse" and my mother passed that down to me.What can I say? My sweet ol' granny was Cecilian.Have you ever heard of "the evil eye"?.You better watch out!*Drags pointing out her index and pinky fingers accompanied with a killer stare*Muahahaha!

Okay, being female, I feel it's my duty to contribute. I used to have SEVERE cramps, and they made me want to die!! I've been on birth control pills (I call them "cramp control" b/c that's the sole reason I take them! )for about five years now - wow, that's a long time now that I think about it! - and they really help. No more guessing when "the friend" will actually pay a visit and only about three days per visit!!! It hasn't helped my skin really, but I'm on another med for that! As far as emotions go, mine are kind of kooky anyway. I get more upset and sensative than angry, but that's how I am "normally" also.

When I was in college, one of my roommates was on birth control too and another was not. My fellow BC taker and I had the same "schedule", and we messed up the other girl's cycle! We always threatened to make her conform; it was quite humorous (for us, anyway!)

Oh yeah, I just saw a commercial, and Evolution is supposed to be new Saturday. Yeaaa!

Okay, okay, I'll chime in on the great PMS thread. I too took birth control pills for about 4 years. Since I've been off of them for a while, poof! No periods, maybe one every three months. I never really got PMS before I got on the pills, or while I was on them, but boy I sure do now! My skin is jacked too! I never had serious problems before, but now, my skin is worse than when I went through puberty! I'm getting back on those pills as soon as I possibly can! I want my period back, girls! You'll miss it when it's gone, but it keeps reminding you it should be there!

*digging out the doc's number now that she's thinking about it.*

Oh, my Mom calls it "That Time of the Month." Yes, you can hear the capitals when she says it. She also inherited the truly sick and weird belief that if you washed your hair while you were on your period that it would stop and give you some unspecified 'problems.' Uck. She lived with that belief her whole life, poor thing. I disavowed that nasty habit the moment nature called.
Me- "Look Mom I washed my hair!"
Mom- "Now you'll DIE!"
Me- "But at least I won't die skanky!"
