careful, careful–my friend with twins who were IVF will be having her third–and completely unplanned–child when the twins are 18 mos. Yiiikes. Breathe into the bag, breathe into the bag.

But hey–SO glad you got your period!

I got one of my irregularly scheduled MIRENA induced periods the other day at work. The tampon machine stole my quarter.
I BROKE IT getting a tampon out.
But I got the effin tampon out, let me tell you.
Stupid period.

No idea men were so in tune with their women. Hooray men!!

How did our past selves ever survive in a world without Palm thingamajiggys or Reminder whatevers?

You mean there are others with organized TDs? Small, Regular, Super, Super Duper, in order with back-up boxes on deck. I confess.

The other day, my GF said, “The only thing in my life that’s organized is my tampon drawer.”

Just thought I’d share.

Um, actually us guys can answer this question.

You know you’re gonna get your monthly visitor when the guys in your life suddenly make themselves scarce. =)

Well, I couldn’t help you with the “Women’s troubles” part, but I could (as a geek) answer what a beta is.

There are two stanges when someone releases anything software, including programs and websites, that come first, Alpha, where those inside the company do internal testing, then Beta, where they think they got all the bugs out, but want a larger group of people to “stress test” it.

Not everyone uses both, but the smart ones use at least the Beta.

Sorry…WTMI.

Don’t they have period reminder emails – like those address books that remind you of peoples’ birthdays? There’s got to be something to that…

Thanks everyone. I’m going to the Palm application store now.

Amazing – the guy had the idea I am going to use.

PS – not pregnant. I started at the basketball game. This was my problem.

Seeing that you suggeste men should ignore this post, I took that as a challenge… so I will brave the subject for all men and say only this…

If by some chance my wife and my twins ever get on the same (ahem) schedule, I will be moving out of the house for that week…very very far away…

And I do know, cuz my wife has one, there is a Palm Application to download to track your… (ahem — cough) your, uh… ‘you know’… if you are so inclined…
