I hate buying shoes online. I fell in love with a pair of Birkenstocks tacosforlife posted on MM, but no one carries them locally. I tried on different styles of birks to get an idea on my size and pulled the trigger. I was so excited when they showed up in two days, but they're TOO SMALL! And it's a holiday weekend. So now I have to schlep my ass to the post office, pay for return shipping, wait for the next size to show up and hope they fit.
"Hi, um, let me have one of those porno magazines, large box of condoms, bottle of Old Harper, couple of those panty shields, and some illegal fireworks . . . and one of those disposable enemas. Nah, make it two."

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.
I make something similar - Mediterranean quinoa salad. I leave out the tomatoes and cilantro (sub in parsley) and add in cucumber, pepperoncini, and sometime banana pepper or marinated artichoke.

oooo! I think I put artichokes in once. I already have to make a run to the store, maybe this one will have artichokes, too.

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.
My doc recommended the same thing, but I've been hormone-free for nine years and didn't want to go back. So I suffer....until I take the PAMPRIN!!!

It's not an issue for me now, but honestly, I would never, ever take hormones again. I realize that everyone is different and they don't do the same thing to everyone but after my experiences, I would never do hormonal bc ever again. Never.

I'm laughing at the Pamprin love. I still have the good shit from the hospital, so that's helping.
Apparently, this month's special guest star is intestinal distress. So in addition to the ache and bloating and the bleeding thru a super max tampon every two hours, I have gas and, uh, other issues.
And everyone is high on sugar and fireworks. So they're like "let's go to the parade! Let's go to the park! Let's have people over to party!" and I just want to put on comfy pants and sit on my couch.

I liked this, then read the other posts and forgot I liked this, so I accidentally unliked, but then I liked again. Which is appropriate, actually. Do you get credit for two likes?
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?

I have this issue every couple of months. I end up having to be really careful what I eat, which is super no fun on a holiday. Hope you feel better and can get back into your comfy pants soon.
Thanks to the hormones that accompany the cramps and need for chocolate I basically just bawled through the last 20 minutes of Independence Day. The speech! Tell my kids I love them! It's just too much.
Also, since AMC is running it over and over, I love that they play End of the World at the beginning of the movie.
Went tubing today. Heard a grandpa ask a maybe 16 year old when she was going to show her puppies. She replied that she needed more beer. DH & I both threw up in our mouths.
We managed to get past their entire group. Thank God.
All the places I wanted to take my friend today were closed. Boo. So now we are in a dive bar, drinking old fashioneds and filling the juke box with good stuff and singing along.
Our backyard is PERFECT for the 4th. We have a big concrete pad for setting off our own dinky fireworks, and a clear line of site three directions where we can see various professional displays. We could even see Denver's big show downtown last year, but it hasn't started yet. If we liked people more, we could throw a kick-ass BBQ (oh sorry - cookout).
At our 4th of July party today my dad made a horribly offensive comment to me about my kids. After chewing him out I packed us up and left. i refuse to be in his presence until he apologizes adequately. Im staying at the house next door to him though and we go to the same church (when I'm in town) so this boycott is really inconvenient. i also hate drama IRL. But, like the founding fathers, I'm not caving to injustice. Lol.
