I'm over it. Period.

Ugh. I've been such a brat lately. I've been very snappish, especially to those I spend a lot of time with. What? You have an opinion? *snap snap* Oh you were just trying to be helpful huh? *snap! snap!* Oh now you're just going to say nothing? That's just great. *SNAP!!* I'd like to take this time to apologize if I have snapped at you in the last few days. I'm going to pull the female card and blame it on PMS.
On my second attempt at taking my BC continuously, I made it through seven weeks before my body insisted on having a period. So even though I don't normally get really bad PMS symptoms, I'm gonna say that's why I'm so snappish recently. I'm also blaming PMS for my insatiable appetite of late. I can never seem to get full!
Let's see, what else can I blame on my period? I slept terribly last night and feel completely drained today. Period's fault! My contact popped out of my eye in the middle of lunch this afternoon. Period's fault! I have to go back to class today after a week off. Period's fault! I couldn't figure out where the granola was stocked at the grocery store the other day, and after a few laps through the aisles, I started crying. That was definitely my period's fault.
I'm so over the whole menstruation thing. I've tolerated it for years, and I even tried to embrace it. Now I just want it to go away for awhile, and it's totally being an intrusive jerk instead. Maybe if I blame all the bad things on my period this week, it'll take a hint and leave me alone until I'm ready to be friends again.
So if anything goes wrong for you this week, please feel free to blame it on my period.

Completely understand. I went on this birth control that's supposed to only give me three periods a year, and instead I had six in one month. Yeah, so I'm going off of it, and now am totally cramping.
Dude, I so hear you on being over the menstruation part of this "being female" gig. My body thinks I need to be doing it full-time and I'm calling b.s.
Wow I feel as though I am in the same boat with the snappi-ness this week. My boyfriend (very politely) asked me if I could be less glas a glass and more like an elastic. And it was a valid statement, which I took seriously because I was being such a bitch to him.
Thanks for the comment on our blog! I am glad we have found each other, I like yours a lot too.
Oh yeah, in case my boss calls you, I am blaming my sick day today on your period. Thanks!
OK. So, this isn't funny. But I can't help it. I giggled at your post. I liked your sound effects--*Snap snap!*
I know when i was transitioning with pills,I went through a few rxs and some made me feel a little crazy. I do hope it gets better soon.
You know what Mom says, no use crying over missing granola bars.
(PS could this be related at all to the celexa??)
I do like having something else to blame...I'm having a crappy day, so I'll blame it on your period. Done and done.
I've totally pulled the grocery store thing before.
