Greetings from my 7-3 shift on a holiday weekend at the hospital! It's nice - no one is here but me, in my office. I've got my music cranked up.
Okay, this is a random, I feel like I've noticed people on the news and NPR making more errors when they speak. Not grammar errors or content errors, but kind of getting tripped up over their words and having to take a long pause to find their places and start over. Maybe it's always happened and I'm just more annoyed with it now because I'm an old asshole. I don't know!
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."
I just want to get my annoyance out of the way early:
The 4th of July is not a holiday that commemorates the sacrifices of our military. Get that shit out of here, FB.
The end.
But they died so we could have the right to blow shit up! Or something. Oh, and something about the wind doesn't blow the flag, the breath of those who died did, or something.
Yay, America!
Meanwhile I just told people they aren't properly celebrating the 4th of July unless they go buy the donuts my mom's organization is selling for a fundraiser this morning. I clearly use fb for important things.
DH took an extended long weekend starting wed which was our holiday and we just returned from the cottage to spend the day doing some tasks at home before a BBQ tonight at our friends house. I am bringing a salad but also want to bring a dessert. Something lemon. Suggestions?
Period started at 2 am. Am presently curled up around a heating pad. Happy 4th.
I'm feeling your pain.
I sometimes wonder how many of us are synced up with our AF visits.
::waves::
I just used my last tampon. Which means in an hour or two, I'll be rummaging through various purses to dig out as many as I can find to see how long I can go before I need to go to the store.

I really thought I was the only one who did this. I hate when I do find one and it's a "regular". No. No, that will no work for today.

I am going to cook today. Sort of. I'm making a Greek Quinoa Salad to have for lunch at work next week. I'm making gazpacho today for tomorrow's dinner to go with BLTs. I am hoping to make and freeze some breakfast burritos. I am thawing a ginormous pork shoulder to roast on Monday for a pulled pork dinner.
After typing all that I'm tired and will go have another cup of coffee on the patio.

If I've never seen the first Magic Mike, will the second be any good?
Channing Tatum near nekkid? That's all you need to understand. Girl, it's not like these movies have a plot line. The plot line is up here ::taps forehead:: They are a choose your own adventure.
PAMPRIN!! Pamprin is a godamn miracle drug. Multi-symptom, maximum strength. Send DH to Walgreens.
Is it better than the Motrin 800 I take? I have heard things about Pamprin but don't understand what kind of magic is involved.
Fuck yeah it's better than Motrin. It's better than Vicodin! I don't know what magic is in there, either. It might be the diuretic, or the unicorn blood. All I know is that I will be sobbing on the floor in excruciating pain and a half hour after taking two or three pamprin I'm ALL BETTER.
You ladies with the period pain... I don't know if this helps or is appropriate for you, but when I turned 35 I was told to switch to the mini pill. I take Lo Lo Estrin and for all intents and purposes, I stopped getting my period. No bloating, no weirdness. I don't know if I am an anomaly, but I'm pretty happy with it! The only thing is it is not free and there is no generics because the fuckers have the patent for like 15 more years at which point I will be post-menopausal and probably dead, lol.
eta: through mail order, it is 35$ for 3 months, so not bad.

Tell me more about Greek quinoa salad!
Prepared quinoa (make sure to rinse it good!) Red onion, pine nuts, parsley, feta, I put in shrimp for extra protein, some people chop in kalamata, I don't always. Dress it with a garlic lemon vinaigrette and DONE. I might have a link to share. I currently have the ingredient list on my chalkboard wall in my kitchen and I kind of wing the dressing. Basically everything you like in a greek salad you just throw in there. Oh, tomatoes, too, but I don't like those.
