When guilt overrides the swoon

You know that you have yourself a keeper when the man volunteers to run to the store to get you feminine products and go grocery shopping. I was laying in bed, huddled into a little pathetic ball, cursing at Eve for picking the damn apple, and the man bundled up, asked me to write a list, reminded me that he loved me, and went out into the cold. Oh. My. God. Can you say alpha male?

Whenever my Dad is pestering me about something, all I have to do is grab at my pelvis and say that I'm cramping and the man is out the door with skid-marks from his shoes trailing behind him.

I'm sure I am going to receive polar opposite reactions from the different sexes on this one. I assume the testosterone pumped men are going to groan and say that the man has no dignity, that tampons are "ewwie." Oh, but the ladies-- the ladies are going to rejoice, for there is still hope in the world. A man that would do that plays the role as an oasis in the desert for the romantically starved. Luckily the majority of my viewers are female. I wonder what that says about me. Maybe it says that I talk about periods too much. That tends to drive men away, right?

I just destroyed my boyfriend's dignity and I'm bragging about it.

He's probably in the feminine hygiene aisle by now too. Poor guy.

...WHAT HAVE I DONE?!

  4. Heya, just found your blog, and it's great. Love it.

    Also.. I prob talk about periods too much too. In my defense, my FI asks silly questions about it, so he gets silly answers. Also, he loves coupons and cuts out all of them for any tampon in existence and goes and buys them, "because they're on sale!" I have three shelves full of tampons. It's absurd.

  5. I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter if you follow up "skid marks" with "from his shoes." You still said skid marks. Now I'm just picturing daddy doo tracks in his drawers. Was that your intention?

  6. @FreeFlying: You are not the only one who has associated skid marks with poo. And yes, that was uh... totally my intention!

    @steph: Why thank you! And tell your FI to cool it with the tampon purchases. If you are bleeding that much, you most definitely need to see some sort of specialist. That ain't right yo.
