Okay, fine, I do feel better.
I was in the middle of finishing the previous entry when the phone rang. Ashley called me to check up on me. …Ended up being exactly what I needed. I can’t really remember what we talked about, beyond something like this:
Me: Explosive menstruation!
Her: Ew.
Me: Explosive menstruation!
Her: Ew.
Me: Explosive menstruation!
Her: Ew.
Me: Explosive menstruation!
Her: Ew.
Erm, you get the idea. See, she’s menstruating right now, after skipping her period last month. I reminded her not to foresake her menses, as I know she’d rather, er, not not get her period. Continuing to foresake her menses in the name of grr cramps and a splitting headache, I reminded her, “Well, at least you don’t have explosive menstruation.”
Agreeing to eat after the conclusion of our conversation, I entered Ye Olde Kitchenne. Stove Top stuffing sounded good. I didn’t think I could eat the entire thing, so I cut the recipe in half, and put the excess in a bag. *nods* Then I thought, “Hmm, I can’t have just stuffing. I should have some chicken, too.” So I tossed that in the oven. Then I thought, “Hmm. If I’m doing that, I might as well make a vegetable.”
I haven’t had a vegetable in months. I can’t remember. I really can’t. I could have really gone for some brussel sprouts, but nobody likes them except for me. Pulling some corn out of the freezer it occurred to me.
“Wait, I’m not sure I even know HOW to make vegetables.”
I heard Alex’s voice in my head. You can cook.
Having already reserved one pot for stuffing, I decided to do corn in a pan. Oh the rebel I am! Tossed in a little water, and turned on the flame. “Hmm. I need butter.” Put in a little bit of water. Watched the water boil and and slowly evaporate. Decided I wanted a dash or two of pepper. Waited until all the water evaporated and tossed them in with the corn.
My endeavour actually came our rather well, but as expected, there’s too much food. Oh well.
Another weekend has passed. Not as bad as last weekend, but I’m still annoyed at how my mood consistently drops at the end of the week.
I’m menstruating!!!!

I was thinking that the corn would start popping. Corn is a starch I think, not a veggie. You know, in that TECHNICAL way, that pumpkins and tomatoes are fruits and peanuts are beans.

does sound good although i’m hoping one of two things: a)you didn’t really cook paper (the stuff you write on) with your corn and you really meant pepper, or b)paper is some strange and wonderful food that we third-worlders have never heard of. any reason in particular your mood dips by week-end? usually it goes the other way round..i mean, it’s monday today and i’m ready to eat cat shit and die.x

I’ve forsaken my menses many times, I’m afraid. Timmy, I have sinned.
