Maybe I look gayer than you, Kat.

Quite possible. I think it's a hair cut.

asking how many years without sex before you can call yourself celibate shuts my Drs. right up.

I've had times of severe stress where I had headaches that would not go away, and then the muscles that go from my neck to my shoulders started to cramp severely.

did it ever make your throat muscle constrict? because that's what freaked me out. everything else i have dealt with before.

I forgot to add in that post that my dad said this happened to him a few days ago, which is why i'm leaning towards thinking this is some kind of "virus".

Cashmere, you crazy close-child-spacing woman! Congratulations.

Thanks. My age was a factor to say, "let's go ahead and do it". Still. It definitely feels crazy.

Cash has nothing on my co-worker. she is my age(soon to be 26!) and will have 3 kids under 3 within the month. INSANE!

I'm sitting here concentrating on a singleton baby. Because this would drive me right over the edge. Not that I couldn't cope but I had a friend who had twins (prematurely) and a 14 month old baby boy. I don't think she's slept in two years.

When my friend was being admitted to a hospital a few years ago the admitting nurse would not take, "I'm a lesbian." as an answer to "What kind of birth control do you use?"

To be fair, I've known plenty of pregnant lesbians. Although, having generally gotten there after great effort and expense and planning and occasionally TMI turkey-baster stories, they tend to be pretty aware of the fact.

I've used "not unless I was abducted by aliens" in answer to the "any chance you're pregnant?" question.

No, but I wasn't driving an interstate when it happened, so I was able to do some stretches to try and de-cramp my neck right away. I've never had my throat muscle constrict. I'm sitting here swallowing repeatedly at the thought of it.

I like this one.

"are you sure?"

"yes."

"are you really sure?"

"yes."

"but are you really sure you're sure?"

"I bled out all over my panties just this morning. Wanna see?"

the "any chance you're pregnant?" question.

My doctors usually take "no" for an answer there. But they follow it up with a question about my form of birth control. Since going off the pill several years ago I usually answer, "My personality."
