I am sorry Kristin, it is so weird how they think they are protecting you when they aren't.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
So sorry, Kristin.
Thanks, Plei. I think I'm going to give up on hair color for a little while. Way too much effort for not much result.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Good God, Kristin. I have no words. You poor woman.

{{Kristin}} Parents can be sooo stoopit sometimes. They do it out of love, but it doesn't make it any less cluestick worthy.

{{{Kristin}}} Why do parents realize that 'not wanting us to worry' actually causes more worry?
Thank you for the birthday wishes! Today is the big four-oh for me. I had a lovely day. Long, luxurious meals, an unhurried pace throughout the day, and a bit of a splurge at Lush.

Kristin, I would alternately want to hug my dad to death and beat him with a truck if he did something like that to me.
I am grey-ish but while I am at my parents this evening I wanted to pop my head in, with news. I hit recent, so I am sorry if I missed anything, but I need to ask a question.
Barb, hope your gyno has excellent news for you. I feel ya. Cause...
I found out yesterday I (YAY) need to have a hysterectomy. I am 36. Woo hoo fuck-a-doodle-doo.
I am interested in info on the effects, experiences women have had with premenopausal estrogen. I didn't expect to have to educate myself about this issue for at least 4 more years, so anything I know is vague, so in addition to more trad med sources, I am interested in personal experiences, if anyone wants to share.
I hate to post and run, but my home net is down, I am visiting the rents, and my dad wants to play WoW.
Hee. My dad plays a chick dwarf mage. I love it.

“Not dead yet!”

GAH! Parents is soooo weird. (And I say that with the full realization that I may well drive my own kids equally nuts one day.)
Still-- I can't believe he thought withholding something like that from you was a GOOD idea. Oy.

Oh sweetie- argh. What a thing to have to hear. I mean, as far as I know so far for me, it's an "option" but probably one to consider fairly seriously, so I feel ya right back.
