No PMS, but still 100% woman.

My sister is emotional, has been for the last couple of days.  I blame it on PMS, both the estrogen induced kind and the putting up with men’s shit side. 

So, I offered my opinion on this one to my mom and gran after her heartbreaking cry last night.  They say that it’s no excuse for being over-emotional.  I beg to differ.  I grew up with the two of them, I have lived through the glory days of their PMS as well as their menopause (? spelling).  As the saying goes, how soon we forget.

After this little enounter I went home last night and tried to remember what having a period is like.  This is what I recall, pain, irritation, leakage, stains in your underwear, a 10 minute bathroom break every hour, craving for chocolate, murderous thoughts about your best friends new super-sexy-bubble-head-tight-assed girlfriend which believes that she can ‘change’ him. . . eugh.

Yes, I would’ve wanted more kids or maybe not, will probably be a grandmother in about 15 years time, I think I deserve a break? Regardless, I do NOT want my uterus or overies back.  In fact, I wanted to ask the doctor to save them for me after the operation, so that I could take them outside, put ‘em on the grass and beat the KAK out of them with a baseball bat.

Ladies, hang in there and if at all possible, have that THING removed.  After all, when you’re done having kids, or not planning to have any, why suffer 7 days of ……….. (insert word here, mine would be TOTAL SELF LOATHING) for the sake of ???  I don’t get it.  If you don’t want something at the store, you dont buy it.  If you’re done with something you throw it out don’t you?  Why should this be different?

And no, I don’t feel like ‘less of a woman’ now that I don’t have stained underwear, a sore belly, bloated tummy and sensitive nipples.  In fact, I feel so much more like a woman. 

Like with everything else, there is one disadvantage. . . . I don’t have the: “not now, Hon, got my period, dont feel well I’m sore and bloated” excuse anymore.  Fortunatly, I still have sleeping pills and can fake a good ‘coma’.

Have a bitch of a weekend, kick ass, get some ass and most off all, dont get your ass kicked.
