Choco, you're lucky it was only a squirrel problem.

The Bobblehead Strikes Again.

Maybe it's the crappy hair cut. There is just something so 'off' about him. Like those monkeys who play the Olsen girls: little tiny bodies and big giant floppy heads.

I'll be here all week. Try the caviar in your Oscar Gift Bags.

this is one of those problems that solves itself. don't bother worrying about remembering to boil the tap water first. If you forget and drink some unboiled tap water, you'll be reminded later. Problem solved.

Here's one for the ladies.

How many here have been stuck at home for one reason or another (mine is because Eva is crook) and found they're out of tampons, so have gone through every handbag, drawer, travel bag and even the car console, in order to build up a stash to last for a day or two?

Is it just me, or are we all idiots?

[Sundae]

Nope.
Implant, baby, that's the way to go.

But I do get your pain. Have been the same way with migraine meds. Literally crawling round the house in pain and hurt, barely able to see, pawing in potential hidey-holes and finally accepting I am simply going to die.
Or going away without coldsore cream - feeling that tingle and knowing I have no other option but to let it bloom like the cankerous flower it is.

[Clodfobble]

Yeah, I'd like to raise my fist in solidarity, but I haven't had a period in almost 4 years now. I've dug around the house like that for Q-tips though. Can't deal with the inside of my ears being wet.

[footfootfoot]

How does that happen? The amenorrhea, not the wet ears.

[Clodfobble]

I have an IUD. The doctor said it's about 50/50 whether periods will continue or stop altogether while it's in there.

[Sundae]

And I have a contraceptive implant that is good for three years.
You can feel it underneath the skin - I don't tend to as it makes me feel a bit queasy, but if anyone questions me I let them feel it.

It's not suitable for every woman, and some have to have it taken out for excessive bleeding. Me? I lucked out. No blood for ?six? years now. Just two little scalpel marks on my upper arm.

[Clodfobble]

Oh yeah, I forgot the excessive bleeding can be a side effect too. I bled lightly for six weeks straight when it first went in, but then it stopped. Have an appointment to get it removed* next month, so we'll see what kind of deluge follows that...


*Not for purposes of impregnation, for those who might be worried. Mr. Clod's had a vasectomy, and I figured there's no reason to have a plastic object inside me if it's not necessary.

[Sundae]

S'funny. From watching Merkin TV, IUDs seem the go-to solution.

I do not know anyone who has one. It's the pill or the three monthly injection.

Then again, I do not personally know anyone else who has the implant, despite me "selling" it for the last six years. I think that's the ick factor though.

[ZenGum]

So you're a cyborg.


I, for one, welcome etc.

[Aliantha]

IUD's and 'The Rod', are very common over here among women who have partners who worry about their manhood and stuff and wont get the snip.

I'll probably end up with an IUD, partly for that reason, and also a couple of others which I wont mention here cause they're probably just not anything anyone here would want to know about. lol Just the fact that I brought up tampons is almost too gross for some I think.

[BigV]

but the tampons... we want to know about that..

:snicker:

[xoxoxoBruce]

You mean ammo.
