kicking and screaming

Jump to Comments

this has got to be one of the worst p.m.s. of my entire life. Well, maybe not, but it sure feels that way at the moment. I am driving myself crazy.

I am relieved that the Mister went to see his far-away relatives for the day. I am relieved that I am all alone, well no – because Walter’s here- banging my head against the wall.

And no, truffles don’t work.
And yes, the tiniest things set me off.
And I can’t believe I am annoying myself.

But I imagine that the stars are waiting to be freed. So I look at the big cardboard piece and carve them out with my cutter piece by piece and I feel normal. I see them glittering on the christmas tree in my mind’s eye. When I cut it hurts my hand and shoulders, but I can’t stop cutting.

So I drive myself crazy, start kicking and screaming. And then I sit in front of my box and free my stars so that I can forget about this insanity.

With p.m.s. like this, who wants to be a girl?

  • Amen, I get this kind of lunacy once a month, too. I really feel for you. I hope it wears off and you soon feel better… I hope it helps that at least there’s one other person who appreciates how shit it can feel!

    At least you can have a giggle about managing to annoy yourself! Here’s lots of sympathy and a virtual hug.

    Cheers

  • some of my guy friends think it’s an excuse to be snappish and cross…I used to think it will go away as I got older..you know – like maturity could control it. I couldn’t have been more wrong. it feels like a bigger kind of crazy now..hahaha..

    i hope your muffin is okay. :)
