Math is hard, let's be in agony; or, a N-GIP

[serinde]

In spite of the fact that my cycle has almost universally been a steady 26 days, and in spite of the fact that I started a whole separate Google Calendar to track it, I was still taken utterly unawares by grinding awful cramps on the subway this morning. Fortunately, this is an area in which I have successfully gamed my weaknesses, and I have all the appropriate supplies in my desk.

Oh, little 8-hour stick-on heating pads, how I love you. I do not know how I survived without you for so many years.

Have duly logged this event, whereupon I find that the next instance will be on Christmas Eve (and therefore, Christmas Day == Crimson Tide). Fuck you, body, fuck you very much.

I dunno. I hear menopause is as bad or potentially worse than what it replaces...

Mileages vary, but I'd say you hear wrong. There's a point where hormones are in flux and it's disorienting, but then it's over and very nice indeed.

OMG, I know you!! (I'm Felicia.) Is it okay if I friend you?

It doesn't last that long, does it?
