Things I Want to Do Because I am On My Period (but Will Refrain from Doing)

1. Eat a bag of marshmallows by myself. Or a bag of chocolate chips. Or pour a bag of chocolate chips into a bag of marshmallows and eat that.

2. Tell the girl at the neighboring sink that smearing blue eyeshadow over half your face is not a good look for you, unless your name happens to be Disco Slut Barbie.

3. Tell the kid in the Che t-shirt to stop smoking his pretentious cigar and go change.

4. Spend the rest of the day drinking cosmos, reading blogs and watching this video.

I know that my reproductive system is a fantastically complex and capable thing and that I only hate my period because I've learned to. But dammit, sometimes I don't want to parse my PMS, I just want to fucking PMS.

Darlin, you're dating a nutjob, remember?

Re: Kid in Che shirt.

I wish I had taken a picture of the whiteboard comment one guy in the hall left on Brian's door when he put up a Che poster. It was *golden*. Something about celebrating Che's communist ideals with gleeful capitalism, only more eloquent and also vulgar.
