I can't wait for menopause so that I can be done with that business.

But then you get to experience other fun stuff, or so I hear.

For that time of the month, I prefer gatorade with vodka in it.

Yeah, but no more endometriosis, no more fibroids, no more cycles (and all of the garbage that comes with that), no more cramps, no more zits, no more spending $$ on "products." Sounds good to me.

OK, I'm outta here.

Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go f*** himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.

If they could make a shoe that makes me less stabby during those special few days each month that would be something....

Get to your 40s, have harder, longer workouts, and "that time of the month" will go away for months at a time. It's wonderful!!! However, come taper time, it'll be back.

I wonder what the menopause shoe will be like. Something to look forward to?

Then you would miss out on this 'wonderful' shoe. But maybe by that time they will have special shoes for menopausal women.

They should have made a set of shoes color coded for different times of the month.
