piss off : april 30

I gotta say that one of the best days during the month is when your period is over. But i shouldn't be too hasty in saying that because actually one of the best days is when your period actually comes - so that means you don't need to worry about being pregnant. I don't know about the rest of you gals but for me, there's been some close calls and in the end, it was all stress related and blah blah blah. But shit, what a pain it is to go through the process of buying EPT and then pissing on that swizzle stick and then waiting. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting for those next 3 minutes can be pretty excruciating. You stand there watching that urine seep across to the test area, unblinking, not realizing that your underwear has now fallen around your ankles and you haven't even wiped your butt yet! But what a sigh of relief it is when there's no "plus" sign nor that "pink" stripe showing up. Ok, so I'm only talking about my own experience not wanting to get a bun in the oven - while I know there are many couples out there who desperately want to be fertile.

But during those 3 minutes baby, I'm waiting to exhale, literally.

I remember the first time I ever read the instructions on one of those tests and it says something about the "splashguard" - a plastic sliding cover to protect the test environment. I guess the creators of that thing didn't want to use "urine guard" or something, since that's exactly what it's used for. While I'm on the topic of splashing urine...I wish doctors would create a cup that can collect urine samples easier for us females. We don't exactly have a hose to pump that stuff neatly into a cup for urinary tests. We just get handed a cup the size of a Dixie cup and with that, we're lucky if we aim correctly enough to fill a thimble. The outcome is usually a pee-soaked hand. Of course, you always get some urine dribbled on the side of the cup and you hastily wipe it up quickly so the nurse won't think you spilled that goddamn stuff all over your hands like a dumbshit who can't even pee into a cup. I remember one time I didn't pee enough into a cup and the doctor sent me back to pee some more. Shit, I'm not a faucet!

Hey, DKSF is up again! And a big AIYAH goes out to what happened to his car (I feel for you, I really do-since it hits real close to home) and to him. But glad that you got your baby back now. But here's a new one for you from my trip to the Acura dealer yesterday....the new S-type.

Spent the entire weekend watching more and more videos. Got to watch a few interesting ones:

Fight Club - i shouldn't watch this when i'm sleepy since it was so fuckin weird to follow

Galaxy Quest - this movie has its moments but i was more impressed with the way Sigourney Weaver looks

Flawless - Robert DeNiro was great and whoever played the drag queen was super baby....super

Dogma - really liked this movie, was it from the same director as Clerks or something? i think people may think it's blasphemy but it was funny as hell

I've been spending some time playing Age of Empires 2 these days. K has been obsessed with it and has mastered it pretty much now. I like to just build my little towns and make the damn people work and making sure they aren't standing around doing nothing. Somehow I have no interest in fighting my enemies or looking for those Holy objects. I think I should just play The Sims instead then.

Well I better go enjoy what's left of my weekend and dread the onslaught of a Monday morning. Toodles.

I'm out.
