Surfin the Crimson Tide.....

And here we are readers.

Since my last blog on Monday - where I was in a particular ranting mood, but can you blame me? Of course, female readers out there will understand - but I doubt the male of the species will be able to pick up on how bloody how annoying, irratating, inconvienent, painful the whole 'time of the month' thing is.

Grrrr

Tuesday
So, after Monday in bed, curled up into a wee ball, I woke up on Tuesday hoping to feel better.

No such luck.

I felt like hell, I was still sore, nauseous, cranky - and was giving some serious thought to staying home again. But I remembered that there was a particular meeting that I should really attend that afternoon, so off I went into work.

Boy was I tierd, absolutely knackered. It's a bad 'time of the month' this month. I last through to the meeting but am absolutely dead on my feet by 5:30pm..... it's time to go home. It's so bad, I'm actually falling asleep on the bus on the way home - I need my bed!

I get home and collapse on my bed, I've no energy left. Felicity pop's out and grabs us pizza from La Barca, and we watch 'Waynes World II'. Well I say we, but that didn't really happen... after 20mins into the movie, Felicity's phone goes off and that's her for the next hour!

I watch the rest of the movie, and fall asleep.

Today
Well, I did feel a bit better today - I'm slowly getting through this month's 'period'.

I wasn't actually in my office today as it was a change of scenary! Hoorah. But I was still in an office... Today, I was in the 'Information Edge'; http://www.informationedge.com/default.asp office. I was working with Joseph & Mark fleshing the case study out and seeing what we could agree on!

Of course, there was time for lunch to which Joseph decided he looked rather dashing modeling the latest designer wear in table napkins......



And then of course some serious conversation........


After lunch, it was back to their offices to finish up on a couple of details. We finish off around 6pm and I head home, popping into my local chinese for Singapore Fried Chow Mein, update the blog, download e-mail and watch some telly before going to bed for an early night.

I know, such an exciting life.........

Tomorrow should be a wee bit different - it's Cricket at the Oval tomorrow with the boys!

Sometimes it's hard to be a woman......

Och, Grumble, Grumble, Grumble.

It's annoying. It's really annoying. In fact it's so annoying that I'm thinking if only I'd been born a man.....And that thought is quickly shoved out of my mind. Euuuugh!

I didn't sleep at all well last night, and woke up feeling like hell this morning. Yes, it's 'that' time of the month....... surfin the crimson tide, on the blob, cramping like hell. I hate my period. I'm all sore, cranky, yucky. I HATE IT!!!!!!!! Every fucking month.

I swear if a man had to go through this every month they would have invented a medication by now that actually worked!! I mean what is it with those fucking adverts on the telly that has those wifies all smiling and running about in tight white shorts exercising when they are on the blob?

Fucking morons! That’s what they are.

Fucking morons!

Who the hell in their right mind prances about when they are on the blob? That’s the last thing you’d actually want to do. Now lets go through what I’m my ‘symptoms’;

  • I feel bloated
  • I feel nauseous
  • My back hurts
  • My breasts are swollen and sore
  • My right knee hurts - (why on earth does my knee always hurt at this time of the month?? It’s not even fucking connected to my ovaries!)
  • I’m cramping to hell, it comes in waves of pain that shoot through my abdomen leaving me curled up into a little ball
  • And to top it all off, a fucking coldsore

I’m cranky. I'm in bed feeling like shit, trying very hard to resist the urge to pick the telly up and throw it out of the window if I see another fucking ‘feminine product’ advert.

Men have got a lot to answer for.

AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
