Didn't we order a nice 2017 for Teppy?
Zoe: Don't think it's a good spot, sir. She still has the advantage over us. Mal: Everyone always does. That's what makes us special.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Tep, can you wait until the return of the red menace allows for softening? Though I will say that some aspects of my body are happier without an IUD and my periods haven't gone back to full-on horror show since.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I wondered about that.

But I also wondered about that. Since Tim is willing to get snipped, I think I'm going to go IUD-free and deal with periods again, whenever they return.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Good lord, Steph, that sounds horrendous. Glad Tim is willing to get snipped.
Coincidentally, I was supposed to get IUD #1 today, but I've missed my last couple of periods (might be from messing up my pills) so my doc wants me to get bloodwork done first. Which I was supposed to do this morning, but overslept AGAIN and had to reschedule for tomorrow. At least it meant I was 10 min early to work.
I am slowly, slowly learning to shut my big fat mouth at work and just nod.
Roommate has declined to talk in person because he's "emotionally exhausted from the excessive texting and rescheduling" (actual quote) and now basically says "I can't make you respect my needs." So I'm going to use my own good judgment and do what the fuck I want, just like he does, and I may or may not give him a heads up first. Please note he was the one who wanted to talk in person in the first place.
I really don't want to send the next ten months in icy politeness, but I guess we'll just see what happens.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Icy politeness beats rudeness of any temperature, IMHO.

I am so glad that I work from home and scheduled this IUD misadventure on my typically slow day. I finished my work, ate a lot of chocolate and then lunch (in that order), took a stronger painkiller, and now I'm snuggled up in my nice warm bed waiting for the nap train to arrive.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You deserve an excellent nap.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Steph, I am glad you get a nap at least

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I highly recommend getting the SO snipped, if it's an option. Though my IUD insertion wasn't painful, having been recently pregnant when I had it done, not being on hormones for the first time in 20 years is pretty great.
