Went to the OB/GYN this week, which was about as fun as it ever is, but no worse than usual. She’s a new OB/GYN, I haven’t been to one in years and years. She’s part of the doctor group that contains my primary care doctor, so they can share info and consult with each other if necessary. She seems like a pretty good one, the nurse from my regular doc recommended her highly.

Anyway, we talked about how the last couple of periods have been unusually heavy, and after the exam she said my uterus does seem a little enlarged and she wants to take an ultrasound of it just to make sure everything’s copacetic. So now I’m scheduled to have an ultrasound in a few weeks.

I’m getting right tired of being poked and prodded. Can’t I just trade in my meat suit for a new one?

Yesterday was Day Two of my period.

Ladies, you know what I mean.

I had five heavy-duty maxipads in my desk. By lunchtime I was worried I would have to run to the store for more. Fortunately it tapered off.

Bleah. The worst is over for another month.

The worst of the cold seemed to have passed by Sunday, but my sinuses have still been clogged. I relied on Nyquil to get to sleep, because otherwise I couldn’t breathe when I lay down. I constantly felt like I was on the verge of suffocation.

Today Alpha Geek had to take an online class to get certified in some software or system or something, so I went out to Pei Wei and brought him back some lunch. For myself I got some of their nice, spicy pad thai.

Boy, that cleared things right up. For the first few minutes I had to keep stopping to blow my nose. The amount of snot that came out of my head was epic. For the first time in almost a week, I can breathe comfortably. I don’t have to gasp open-mouthed for air like a fish in a dirty aquarium.

They should bottle this stuff and put it in the cold remedies aisle.
