You know you've got PMS when....

You keep writing really nasty responses to people's posts and then reading them and deleting them because they're just far too b*tchy!

If I offend you in any way over the next couple of days, please consider that my hormones are riding the rollercoaster of emotion and so my moods are somewhat like this:

:) x( ;) :eek: }( :+ ;( :( :-( :) }( :D :) :( :p ;( :7 x(

I apologize in advance.
 
Relating to the post about difficult co-workers, it sounds like this might be just the perfect week for you to come over to my office and "deal" with a few of my co-workers. }( }( }(
 
LOL Shelley...hang in there! You'll make it!:)

Yeah, me too. Don't sweat it. We've all been there. Sounds like you need some of your Evil Cookies. Cookies always make me feel better. Until I realize I just ate 6 cookies, and then I just feel guilty. So nevermind, don't eat cookies - they'll just add to the emotional roller coaster. Eat broccoli. It's good for you.
 
I know I am PMSing, and so does everyone else, when I feel like everything that people say is directed towards me in a critical and condescending way, so I start yelling. And then I start hugging. And then I start cussing. And then I start crying. And then I start laughing. And then I want to hit something. Then I forgive you for not saying anything wrong at all. Then you can't say anyhing right. Then I smile. Then I throw something.

I really don't like Eve. Why did she have to eat that darn fruit....
 
OMG, I'm exactly the same way! Anything anyone says to me is some sort of insult. I tend to cry more than yell, but my SO tells me I'm particularly unpleasant to be around TTOM. Fortunately, he went out of town yesterday because I'm gearing up to start! ;( ;( ;( :7 ;( ;( ;(

Shelley, I'm sorry you're not enjoying your PMS. Don't you know it's all in your head??? }( (Don't send evil vibes my way, I'm just kidding.)
 
He doesn't tell you that while you are pmsing, does he? DH knows better, I give a good lashing! Verbal and with the whip!

Gosh, you know, I do feel sorry for our men! They are so easy to figure out! So...almost simple, really. We know what they want (sex), we know what they think about (sex) and we know how to get what we want from them (sex). They don't have a clue about us, because our moods change every five minutes! I would so much rather be me than to try to figure me out!}(
 
He's pretty diplomatic about it. First he asks if everything's OK. Then I cry. Then he asks me if I'm sure nothing's wrong. Then I tell him I'm fine while tears stream down my face. Then he gives me a hug and I tell him not to touch me. As he walks out of the room with a confused look on his face, I ask him why he stopped hugging me. Doesn't he care???? Then he asks if I'm going to start my period soon and it clicks in my head "Oh yeah, I am about to start." Then I apologize. Then I get mad at him for pointing out the obvious. }(

Of course, while my emotions are on their roller coaster ride, I feel totally justified in my reactions. One TTOM actually starts and the PMS goes away, I realize what a monster I was and I make it up to him.

This does explain why some cultures have menstrual huts!
 
....you see only crumbs left in the bottom of a caramel corn cannister and pour them into a bowl and eat them with a spoon. :)

I just did that! TeeHee!
 
.... not only my family can't stand to be in the same room with me, but I can't stand to be in the same room with myself!

I found myself getting choked up over a Prego pasta sauce commercial...sheesh, I need to get a grip.

LOL! That's me too! Today i was listening to the GMA show while I was getting ready and was doing the "ugly cry" as Oprah always describes it. Of course, it was quite a touching story. I won't go into details about that. Oh yeah, chocolate doesn't last long around here either. And I'm not even a chocolate lover!

A menstrual hut is basically a hut that is separated from the village, where women who are menstruating are sent for the duration of their menses. They are found in tons of different cultures: African, Indonesian, Hawaiian, India, Suriname to name a few.

Here's a link to a picture of one in Hawaii:

And here's some info on them:

The idea, according to some anthropologists, is that certain culture find menstruation to be unclean. The women need to be segregated to avoid polluting crops and animals. However, other anthropologists found that some women would go the the huts several times a month just to get away from the men. :)

Hope this informs and delights!
