So I got a hold of my OBGYN today to explain the dilemma with the wonder drug that has been discontinued. Apparently, there was no acceptable alternative to her. She referred me to a pharmacy that would blend a medication just for me. Turns out they don’t submit to insurance and it would be anywhere from $75-$150 a month for me to have my medications. Now I don’t know about you guys out there, but I don’t have an extra $75-$150 a month because I am paying for insurance that is supposed to help with this kind of expense. *sigh* Thankfully, this pharmacy did some research and found a few alternatives (after I blubbered on the phone about having no money and that I feel I was robbed of my vitality, GAWD I am hormonal). So, we are going to try those. Good news, It was about $20 less than the Estratest! WOOHOO!! So hopefully this will work out! And hopefully that “sexual healing” will continue…. I am still impatiently waiting for a woman’s version of “the little blue pill”.
Now if we can just get the other stuff straight, we will be good. Did I mention my other doctor just got my blood work back, and it was CRAZY!? I have to go in for a 2 hour blood sugar test, and they are re-submitting my blood for further review of my thyroid function and iron levels. *sigh* I hate going to the doctor. I swear once I get healthy I am not going back. Anyone out there who is on the brink of being obese…..PUT THE CHOCOLATE DOWN!!! PUT THE FRIED CHICKEN DOWN!!!! GET UP OFF YOUR BUTT AND TAKE A WALK AROUND THE BLOCK!!! EAT A CARROT OR SOMETHING!!! Being fat IS NOT worth going through this kind of crap! Having that serving of homemade macaroni or those enchiladas is not worth risking your life. Because essentially, that is what you are doing (as I type while sitting on my 283 lb ass). I am trying to change my perception. I haven’t been successful yet ( I want chocolate or something really fattening SO BAD), but what do they say “Try Try Try again!” I will be successful it is just harder and going to take longer than I was hoping. But ultimately, I have no choice. My family is worth the world to me and I need to be healthy for them.
I took the day off to spend some needed time with my youngest child today. We had a blast (when I wasn’t blubbering about my medical crap). We even took a nap together. He paints an awesome volcano! The laundry still isn’t done, and it still looks like a bomb went off in my house, but I don’t mind. I wouldn’t give up my day with him for that stuff anyway! AND my 8-year-old had an AWESOME week! She is FINALLY not grounded anymore! PRAISE GOD! I am SO proud of all her hard work. I have been getting her cards. You have seen the commercials for Hallmark with the cards made just to cheer kids on. Well, I will have to say that I have bought a few, and on the days I gave those to her, she had a great day. She told me tonight that the cards really help. AND you can get one FREE at your local Hallmark! I am a BIG fan of free!
Oy, I am so crabby I can’t stand myself. The dogs are hiding in their kennels, the cats have disappeared and poor Hubby will be home soon. I just don’t feel like making soup today so I am cheating, I am taking chicken and ramen noodles and maybe some vegetables and going to call it soup. I was going to make some sweet potato soup from a Rachel Ray recipe but I need to empty and wash the pot I used to make chili last week. But I don’t want to. Because I am crabby!
Did you know that a can of diet pepsi can spray your walls and everything within a few feet and take forever to soak up, clean up and dry? Well it does. I don’t know how the damn thing fell either, I was working on my business plan and all of a sudden it spilled. Must have ghosts or something. It wasn’t very nice of them if they are the ones that did it. GRRRRRRRR, more crabbiness. So now my living room is messy because I had to throw everything out from the wall to get it dry. Crabby, crabby, crabby.
I got pink highlights put in my hair on Tuesday. So of course I have to go to a funeral next week. Isn’t that the way it usually works? But my uncle would have just given me grief over it and that would have been the end of it. So me and my crabby self will just head down there and enjoy seeing everyone, have a good cry because it is sad that my uncle is gone, and talk about how it just really sucks that we only get to see each other these days when someone dies. Adds to my crabbiness today.
Someday menopause will come. And hopefully the crabbiness will go. Sometimes it is worse than being a teenager and just getting it. The mood swings just suck. Suck, suck, suck! More crabbiness.
Happy freakin thoughts for a happy freakin day! So there.

This is a common concern in women aged 40 years and over is a matter of menopause, because they believe in having sex, their partner is not satisfied anymore because they dry vagina.
The most effective way to treat the symptoms of menopause, estrogen is given treatment. This treatment is also called hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT can be used for: treatment of hot flashes and night sweats disturbing, problem cycle, vaginal dryness urinary complaints and grievances. Sometimes used for prevention of osteoporosis
and the development of cardiovascular disease. HRT can be given in various ways, such as the pill, patch, nasal spray, gel and implants.
The level of discomfort of menopause symptoms and the expected improvement with therapy play a role in determining whether or not to use HRT. Doctors can only give this advice: women should eventually make their own decisions.
The basic principles of hormone replacement
Estrogen can be given in various ways. If only the symptoms of bladder or vagina, will be chosen for local (local) administration. In general, symptoms (hot flashes), it is important that the hormones in the blood (systemic therapy), this example with pills or patches. In general, the route of administration is not important.
Under the influence of estrogen the endometrium grows. Continuous use of estrogen alone, mucosal derail growth. This can make the bleeding worse and may increase the risk of cervical cancer. This slip can be prevented with estrogen in combination with a progestogen to be taken. This will be given every month for sequential progestogen 10-14. After stopping the progestogen rather than follow the “period”.
Side effects hormone replacement
In the local (vaginal) treatment with hormones, such as vaginal dryness urinary complaints or symptoms without any obvious side effects. There is the possibility that the vagina slightly increased.
Systemic administration of estrogen (estrogen administration via blood) is more susceptible to side effects. In the short term primarily means that the chest pain and vaginal bleeding. When combined HRT (estrogen and progestin) can create a feeling bloated. In particular, long-term use of combined HRT increases the risk of breast cancer. The risk of developing gallstones and the occurrence of thrombosis is slightly increased (less than 1 per 100 women).
Treatment of menstrual disorders
In the irregular menstrual cycle is a good way as regular contraceptive pill first choice. Regular weather cycles and reduces blood loss. The pills made three of four weeks for enough hormones for menopausal symptoms yet. Can stop for a week or complaints arise, in this case will be transferred to the HST-pill.
I know that Love & Logic parenting is all the rage. With due respect to its creators and many adherents, ARE ANY OF YOU FREAKING MENOPAUSAL????
Give me a moment; I’ll take my estrogen and explain…
When I got in the shower this morning, I discovered that, once again, my daughter has been “making potions” during bath time. The making of potions a la Libbi entails dumping all of my body wash, body scrubs, conditioning gels, lotions and liquids (absolutely essential to avoid that “mature” alligator-with-eczema look) into the bath water and then making her own sludgy combos to refill the containers. (She puts them all back very neatly, gotta give her that. I never know she’s done it until I wash my hair with bath salt.)
Now, I have previously explained that this situation is not acceptable and determined the “logical,” “loving” course of action–a shower instead of a bath for her, which would be a tragedy and probably effective. IF I COULD REMEMBER TO ENFORCE IT.
You see, Love & Logic parenting requires two things the menopausal mother of a young child does not have in adequate supply: patience and a memory.
Am I really supposed to remember at six p.m. the thing that pissed me off that morning? Not gonna happen. I consider that one of the perks of menopause.
I tried 1-2-3 Magic, which I liked when my daughter was younger, but now, with menopause-induced ADD, I’m onto another topic by the time I get to 3.
So, I propose a more satisfying, more effective way for a menopausal mother make her point: The next time I get into my shower only to find that my expensive cream rinse has been diluted to drool, I am going to scream “WHICH ONE OF YOU YAHOOS IS MESSING WITH MY STUFF AGAIN???? WHOEVER IT IS , YOU ARE IN SO. MUCH. TROUBLE!!!” at the top of my lungs. I think that’s going to work. And at least I won’t have to try to remember where I put my Love & Logic book.
THE ANTIOXIDANT ANTIAGING CHIEF HUMAN HORMONE MELATONIN DELAYS / LESSENS MENOPAUSE, PARKINSONS, GALLSTONES, HYPERTENSION, HEADACHE, SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER, AGING, ALZHEIMERS, CANCER, INSOMNIA; ONLY EXCESS LOWERS MOOD AND LIBIDO. .
Since melatonin improves sleep & serotonin level, it not surprisingly lowers LH luteotropic hormone and thus libido in the pharmacological doses marketed (3mg) .
Surprisingly, there are only 8 papers on melatonin and aging human sexual activity on Pubmed search..But is it a surprise that there are 162 papers on Pubmed since 1992? including many on a designer melatonin agonist agomelatine- of which one of the latest – Prescrire a month ago- concludes: “agomelaline new drug. Adverse effects and no proven efficacy;.. Very high doeses of agomelatine are oncogenic in animals. The risk in humans is not known. Dizziness, gastrointestinal and cutaneous disorders have been observed. Agomelatine is probably hepatotoxic“.
PHYSIOLOGICAL HORMONE BALANCE VERSUS SYNTHETIC DESIGNER SUBSTITUTES:
But there are lots of self-reports on Google confriming what physiology tells us, that hormone balance is what matters.
Doctors (and hence patients) choose at their peril to ignore physiology – what nature teaches us about optimal function- solely at the behest of Big Pharma. Big pharma made a killing before WW2 with the isolation, patenting and mass sales of natural supplements eg hormones starting with thyroid. But these soon run out of patent, so Big Pharma has zealously employed massive armies of researchers and lobbyists to develop and promote synthetics cribbed from natural products ie synthetic designer drugs. Industry has not yet succeeded in generating a synthetic designer form of thyroid hormone to exploit the millions with thyroid deficiency, nor a substitute for the human heart-made hormone digoxin, which has never been surpassed as the foxglove digitalis extract .
Big Pharma wants us to forget that all modern drugs for chronic use were based on ancient endogenous and mineral/plant based drugs .
The chief brain antidepressant HORMONES serotonin ie its precursors (5H)tryptophan and other natural antidepressant like St John’s wort; and the chief brain anxiolytics GABA and progesterone and harmless plant anxiolytics like valerian , were soon supplanted by synthetic antidepressants, and barbiturate-benzodiazebine – like designer drugs. Industry has exploited the growing dialysis market by promoting grossly costly designer synthetic- not human- erythropoeitin analogues.
These designer drugs have been so cleverly marketed by Big Pharma – and thus politicians, governments which Big Pharma massively funds directly and via taxes and job promises – that for chronic use let alone acute illness they have almost wiped out the use of highly effective remedies used for millennia. eg lithium and metformin were ignored by the FDA for 25 years despite being the gold standard elsewhere for bipolar and type 2 diabetes respectively. For common hypertension, rauwolfia-reserpine is still the goldstandard bedrock treatment in a dose of less than 0.1mg/day combined with the also-suppressed perfect synthetic (saluretic, potassium-magnesium conserving) vasodilator amiloretic amilozide in low dose.
And melatonin output is inverse to bloodpressure , it reduces both hypertension, and nicotine-related vascullopathy.
The Chinese already were using gender-specific sex human hormones derived from the ’sublimation’ of youthful human urine to treat gender-specific diseases and deficiencies. But since the extraction of sex hormones from the urine of humans in this age of viral and prion plagues (let alone the aesthetic and logistic problematic matter of buying billions of gallons of human urine each year) is not on, Wyeth – with the increasing monopolistic complicity of the FDA-USA government- simply substituted human hormones by xenohormones- horse estrogens (from the mass farming of tethered catheterized mares) and synthetic progestins- for both contraception and HRT in men and women. Hence the catastrophe for older women of the Womens’ Health Initiative.
And industry attempts to keep a stranglehold on the vast diabetes market by continually synthetising new depot forms of human insulin; and synthetic alternatives to the gold standard and only plant-derived antidiabetic prohormone (- metformin, in use for well over 50 years, the only drug ever that has been tested in a 20year randomized controlled trial, and proven to be the only prescription drug that reduces all major diseases and thus deaths by almost 50% -) by continually bombarding the market with largely unnecessary synthetic designer drugs to discourage use of metformin, diet and lifestyle change - new sulphonylureas, acarbose, glitazones and now gliptins, none of which have undergone longterm trials, and which uniformly prove (unlike established old drugs) to have major adverse effects even at registered doses. Like amphetamines, orlistat and rimonabant have had to be progressively restricted- sibutramine is the latest to be cancelled last week in Europe. due to adverse effects that the suppliers finally failed to prevent becoming common knowledge. Is it surprizing that the USA FDA – which runs the FDA on the massive funding of and input from Big Pharma- has still not suspended sibutramine use there?
And surprise surprise- Wikipedia dismissed metformin for weight loss with one reference, although there as scores of trials including major 3-5year trials on three continents that show that metformin use in the overweight BEFORE diabete occurs produces both significant fat loss and approximate halving in new diabetes and new cancer.
And wiki confirms that while the human hormones leptin, amylin and gliptins-incretins- work in synergy with all other hormones, micronutients to potently regulate optimal sugar and fat and energy metabolism, none of them have been marketed as the natural forms- that is the last thing that Big Pharma – the FDA- Uncle Sam wants when with some effort they can already market designer adaptations to produce more golden $billion raincheques.
This despite the fact that Turek’s 2010 USA transcontinental trial showed recently in rodents that combination of the natural hormones amylin and leptin injection decreased food intake (by 26%) and reduced body weight (by 15%) and epididymal fat (by 78%). 15% of 100kg body mass is 15kg weight loss.. A year before, Ravussin ea published the 6 month trial of the designer derivatives of leptin and amylin confirming that the patented combination in obese humans indeed lowered body weight by 12.7%.But the common adverse effect of the injection was nausea.
This farcical commercial merrygoround - which puts patients at grave risk- is despite the fact that there are dozens of safe proven natural ie unpatentable antidiabetic insulin sensitizers/ obesity-reversing supplements freely available, from garlic and fenugreek to galega officinalis, gymnema, coleus, calcium, chromium, zinc and vitamin D3.
MELATONIN DOSE:
Hypnotics promote sleep, not sex- hence melatonin works best after sleep rest ie well after midnight, early morning. But designer synthetic hypnotics have dangerous side-effects and addiction problems, without any longterm benefits.
Clearly for anyone not in an institution or at risk of cancer, melatonin dose should be kept as low as is prudent to optimize sleep- not sedate.
This dose may be as low as 0.05mg/night- hence dose should be titrated upwards from a pinch to the average optimal of 0.25mg/night, but as high as is well tolerated without hangover/daytime drowsiness.
So for the hyperanxious-anxiety-panic disorders, melatonin may well best be taken in the morning at low dose, and early evening to unwind
That low dose reverses impotence in rats is not surprising- 10 to 100mcg/kg as used in rodents equates to between 1-10mcg/kg in humans ie 0.05 to 1mg in adults.
Studies show that the right dose for sleep in humans is about 0.1 to 0.3mg – not the 3mg caps/pills that are foolishly marketed.
Melatonin in excess can worsen depression and cognition; and even be arousing.
but since it improves sleep and growth and reproduction and energy balance and immunity and bloodpressure and cancer control and anorexia – fragility reversal,
it should equally clearly be supplemented at night in physiological dose ie 0.05 – 1mg- combined with especially vitamin D3, and during the day or for an hour before sleep with bright (sunshine or artificial light) exposure, which dramatically improves Parkinsons disease..
LEVELS OF MELATONIN AND LIGHT:
The recent Bronowski Institute study shows how bright fluorescent light (does a TV or computer screen count? – surely?) should be encouraged for an hour before bedtime since it markedly reduces Parkinsons; but in older people should then be followed by a melatonin supplement dose of melatonin for all the antiaging reasons. As Rabbi Michoel Gourarie writes in Personal Growth, turning on a light in the dark- even the one small candle of ancient times- can do as much to cheer up one or a host of people.
So especially in institutions sleep should be preceded by bright light for an hour before lights out.
The most most important aspect for us all is sequential light (both via stimulation and via vitamin D from sunlight) and and then darkness for sleep’s melatonin value in insomnia & fatigue especially autism, ADHD, against cancer, hypertension, diabetes (insulin sensitizer ), & especially for retarding menopause ie infertility.
The recent trials data increases greatly the potential of melatonin against premature aging ie against cancer as well as against gonadopause that was already widely promoted 15 yrs ago by Regelson, Colman and Pierpaoli - In 1995 Pierpaoli in The Melatonin Miracle summed up how melatonin given to aging mice maintained youthful size gonads, significantly higher sex hormones, and extended their healthspan and lifespan by 30% ie to a century in human terms.
The first 7.5year case followup of melatonin benefits in delaying menopause came from Poland 2 years ago; but already in 2005 an Italian team Bellipanni ea showed in a 6month study that melatonin 3mg/day “abrogates hormonal, menopause-related neurovegetative disturbances and restores menstrual cyclicity and fertility in perimenopausal or menopausal women. At present we assert that the six-month treatment with MEL produced a remarkable and highly significant improvement of thyroid function, positive changes of gonadotropins towards more juvenile levels, and abrogation of menopause-related depression.”
Previously in 1992, Sandyk ea in New York proposed that “There is evidence that pineal melatonin is an anti-aging hormone and that the menopause is associated with a substantial decline in melatonin secretion and an increased rate of pineal calcification.” . And in 1984 Aleem ea had shown “Suppression of basal luteinizing hormone concentrations by melatonin in postmenopausal women.” ie that supplemental melatonin can suppress rising LH – although the primary cause of menopause is gonadal aging- exhaustion,- which in both men and women leads to the compensatory rise in LH if the pineal and pituitary glands are themselves still capable of responding to feedback. The primary cause of hot flashes is due largely to falling estrogen level, with all other menopause symptoms being caused by gonadal hormone exhaustion. But Bellipanni’s 2005 study showed that melatonin supplement could produce better gonadal and thyroid hormone output.
So all aging folk should take the combined hormones vitamin D3 about 5000iu/day, and melatonin, building slowly to perhaps 1 - 3mg at night, from age 30yrs if not earlier; but with cancer, under medical supervision, building to vit D3 10 00 to 50 000iu/day ( monitoring the serum calcium) and melatonin to perhaps 40mg/d – plus a titrated dose of the anticancer prohormone metfornin. .
Last week, I told my symptoms — insomnia, a creepy-crawling feeling on my skin, waking up sweaty in the middle of the night, a period that’s been missing for three months — to a nurse/midwife. She concluded that it was menopause. I had been waiting for that news since 1972. If I hadn’t been tired and suffering from a cold, I would done cartwheels out of the clinic.
Ahh. . .the news every childfree woman wants to hear. The door is permanently closed to parenthood, and hopefully, there will be an end to annoying questions from others concerning having kids. It’s the pleasure of knowing that one day, worrying about birth control won’t be an issue. One day, I will no longer have to spend money on tampons and sanitary napkins. It’s all good.
Chelsea Handler made fun of the the Duggars on her show recently. Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar made the cover of People magazine, along with their 19th kid, who was born with complications. I never watch the reality TV show they have; there’s nothing fascinating about people who have hordes of kids. Plenty of people do. Why do some families deserve to get the face time on camera over others?
I signed up for a free People subscription, and sure enough, the first issue I received was the one with the Duggars on the cover. Medical experts are quoted saying they think the couple has too many kids, and the lack of emotional and financial resources available to give to so many children. Michelle Duggar had been diagnosed with preeclampsia (pregnancy-induced hypertension) before the latest kid was born prematurely. Michelle is 43 years old. If she and her husband insist to continue having more kids, because they believe all children are gifts of God, then she’s going to be in for some bad medical problems.
Doctors have stated for years that there are risks for women having kids after age 35, but a lot of people still don’t believe it. I learned that having more than four kids, regardless of how old the mother is, causes health problems. The older siblings, who often find themselves helping to care for younger siblings, suffer emotional problems. There is a reason why some women — myself included — who were put in the position of playing “second mama” while they were growing up, don’t have children. We’ve already done the motherhood thing. We don’t want to play mama again as adults.
I shook my head as I read the article. Jim Bob Duggar stated, “All of our children are thankful to be here.” Uh, they didn’t ask for or had a say so in being born, anymore than I or ol’ Jim Bob and Michelle did. I wonder if he really asked the kids how they felt, or did he just assume that.
…is something we all strive for. Who on earth wouldn’t? There’s absolutely nothing else like being immersed in someone else’s skin.
You know what I’m talking about. First you flirt, or ogle if that’s your style. Then you feel that little tingle start somewhere deep inside. Your toes start to curl up, and then suddenly your body’s on fire. You’re entire being is pulsating like a giant time bomb. The anticipation of a good orgasm keeps you in the moment. You start the countdown 10, 9, 8…
You’re just about there when all of a sudden your mind wanders and you wonder whether or not you switched the laundry from the washer to the dryer…
Crap!
Hot sex to me is when I accidentally burn my finger cooking dinner and I start hopping around the kitchen screaming ‘fuck me, fuck me’ while I dash to the sink to run cold water over it.
Of course this could actually lead to hot sex because if hubby’s in the house and he here’s this gut wrenching scream, the next thing you know I hear him sprinting through the house to get to me. I’ve seen him actually breaks a sweat after maneuvering the furniture in the living room, running hurdle over the dining room chairs, where upon entering the kitchen I can see he’s already got his pants undone, and yep, there it is, the boner. Unfortunately, there are just some fuck me’s that cannot be resolved with anything short of cold water.
Now don’t get me wrong here. I am uber-grateful that after more than thirty-one years of marriage he still wants to jump my bones! He’s forever grabbing my ass at the most unpredictable times, and while this is all well and good, I often times wonder whether this is a sex thing or is he just checking to see if I’ve been working out or not.
Sometimes he’ll rub my shoulders only to let his hand wander down the front of my shirt. Sometimes I stop him and sometimes I don’t, it all depends on whether or not those little stray nipple hairs have been removed or not. It is not cool to have more hair on your chest than your husband. But all in all–it’s all good!
Yes, in my world, hot sex is something that happens when the air conditioner is not working. Oh there’s plenty of steam and sweat but I can’t actually say it’s caused by body movement.
There have been times when we’re engaged in ‘you know’ and I get caught up listening to my spine cracking every time I move. Yes, at my age, it seems like all my bones are a little cranky when put to the test. My hip bones doth protest on occasion too and I wonder if I’ll be stuck in that god awful position forever. I do not want to walk around looking like I just got off a horse after a day of riding bronco bulls.
I got an e-mail in my in-box the other day. You know the kind. The ones that randomly show up and peak your curiosity. Well I clicked on the link and low and behold I got schooled on how long a man can have an erection. Forty-eight to seventy-two hours is what they claim.
WTF?
Are there really men out there willing to walk around like that for two or three days in a row? Is this stuff safe? Does it come with a side order of nitro glycerin for your heart? I’ve seen all those televised ads for Cialis and Viagra and they always have a warning about “if you have an erection longer than four hours” you should contact your doctor. With this product if your doctor is not female and horny, what’s the point of seeing her?
What makes their ad particularly appealing to many consumers out there is that you can get absolutely shit-faced drunk and this stuff, ‘ViagPURE’, will still have the desired effect, and better yet it claims it can save a failing marriage and can make your sperm shoot farther and with more precision than an arrow leaving a spear gun.
Hellooooo! Is the distance sperm can shoot something we give a lot of thought to? Mmmmmmmm! I guess I may have to ponder on whether there are actually any benefits to this.
Now unless you’re a famous golfer claiming ‘hole in ones‘ all the time I don’t see the point. Or maybe, just once, for two or three days I would ‘get’ the point and then wonder what’s the point.
It’s already bad enough that I don’t get enough sleep. I can’t imagine staying up for that many hours in a row just to wreak the benefits of this man enhancer, nor would I want to.
And what about the kids? Don’t you think they’d wonder where we were for those three days even though we were home the whole time? And how would we explain the bags under our eyes and the fact that once we emerged from wherever we’d hidden away that we could no longer move? That we actually might need medical intervention.
I don’t know, call me old-fashioned. I like a good romp in the hay but I don’t think my gina would be as acceptable to participating in this kind of marathon sex any more. Of course this would all boil down to whether I gave in to one of those middle of the night commercial I told you about earlier. You know…for VD–vaginal dryness. Maybe this is where that old adage comes in–the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
Now I’ve known a few men during my lifetime who proclaim they can go at it all night, but seventy-two hours under the best of circumstances seems, well, a little excessive to me–for anything.
I can’t help thinking that with all the blood running down there to keep that sinking ship alive, what the hell is keeping the rest of the boat floating? Doesn’t the rest of the body need some of that blood? But then again, women have always said that a man thinks with his dick so maybe the brain IS getting exactly all the blood it needs. I don’t know, call me crazy.
I say forget about a drug that keeps it up like the energizer bunny and instead just get one of those miniature life alert bracelets and attach it directly to the penis. You let your imagination run wild until a situation ‘arises’, the life alert goes off, and whammo.
“Oh honey….did you hear that?”
“Hear what?”
“It’s beeping.”
“Oh…I thought that was the oven timer.”
“No, it’s me, hurry up, turn off the oven. We’ve got about two minutes.”
“But it’s a souffle, it’ll deflate without the heat.”
“Yeah, well…so will this.”
Maybe I’m just old. I do not want to have sex for seventy-two hours in a row, nor do my hip bones.
Let’s be real hear.
If you have the ability to stay awake for several days in a row you’re probably still in your twenties and don’t need this shit anyway. If you’re an alcoholic in a failing marriage, hello, it’s probably not lack of sex that’s causing your marriage to fail.
Oy, I am so crabby I can’t stand myself. The dogs are hiding in their kennels, the cats have disappeared and poor Hubby will be home soon. I just don’t feel like making soup today so I am cheating, I am taking chicken and ramen noodles and maybe some vegetables and going to call it soup. I was going to make some sweet potato soup from a Rachel Ray recipe but I need to empty and wash the pot I used to make chili last week. But I don’t want to. Because I am crabby!
