On the plus side, at least she’s not pregnant!

by avitable on May 30, 2008

I asked Britt if she wanted me to post something for her today. Thursday was a long day, filled with more frustration and difficulty gaining any ground and she was exhausted.

Here was our exchange:

Adam: Do you want me to post something for you for Friday?

Britt: Only this-
I got my fucking period.
Only I start hemorrhaging from the vagina in the middle of a war zone.

    I’m sure there are others. Maybe you could just shout at random people and ask them if THEY have their period.

    Britt… :heartbeat:

    Hell yeah, way to rock that empty uterus!

    Great to hear that she still has her sense of humor in the midst of this tragedy.

    At least she can still drink up now. :martini:

    That period should be used to its fullest advantage.

    When people tell her “no” that period will give her the strength to say, “I KNOW YOU MEANT YES.”

    I am confident that period is a sign that she’s about to get her in-laws a place to live.

    (I could be wrong, but that’s rarely my reality.)

    I already emailed her my “hang in there” note but in case she reads this…

    You can do it!!!!!! :hug: :heartbeat:

    So let me get this straight… the conditions back in Iowa aren’t really all that bad, it’s just her time of the month?

  7. Fantastagirl May 30, 2008 12:26 am

    Oh man, that sucks.

  8. Jay May 30, 2008 12:30 am

    Soooooooooo … that was a yes?

    OHHHHHH. She meant *the other* type of period. I thought she meant the grammatical kind.

    You see, I thought they needed help and stuff up there in Iowa, and I figured the state itself is 75% vowels! Think of the children! They’re in desparate need for consonants and other forms of punctuation!

    So I sent a bunch of ellipses (to help deal with the hell-lips-says), parenthesis (to ease the parent’s paralysis), apostrophes (to combat the catastrophes), braces (to help solidify things), dashes (for speed), carats (so they would have something for money), octothorps (because really, who DOESN’T need one of those!), tildes, colons, pipes and slashes galore.

    I happened to send extra periods, but I didn’t realize she’d be so sore about it.

    This is why I totally :heartbeat: Britt.

    Not the only reason, of course..but one of them!

  11. hello haha narf May 30, 2008 1:27 am

    (i’m totally following hilly around the internet tonight. hehe)

    She’s going to be OK, she’s still making us smile. Hang in there, dear Britt. We are all here for you.

  13. Iron Fist May 30, 2008 2:02 am

    I’m so glad Britt’s vagina is functioning normally. Now I can get some sleep.

  14. Winter May 30, 2008 2:42 am

    It must be a sign from the gods.

  15. Hallie May 30, 2008 7:34 am

    Tell Britt that it could be worse…she could be hemorraging from her ass!

    Hallie

  16. Nat May 30, 2008 7:42 am

    LMAO! Poor Britt.

    Hope she goes PMS psycho on some deserving schmuck.

  17. Cissa Fireheart May 30, 2008 8:02 am

    Wow…I…don’t even have anything to say….just that all of the comments (especially whall’s) made me laugh so hard.

    And all the exercise Britt’s getting with clean-up will help to alleviate the cramps….

  18. Britt's Mom May 30, 2008 8:28 am

    Adam you’re a good friend. :rock:

  19. Dianne May 30, 2008 8:34 am

    Considering all the grief Mother Nature has already imposed you’d think she could at least give Miss Britt a light flow without cramps.

    Come on Mother Nature - enough is enough!

  20. metalmom May 30, 2008 9:53 am

    @Whall-You are too fucking funny!

    Use the force, Britt….go to the dark side…use those hormones for good and not evil!

  21. Finn May 30, 2008 9:57 am

    Thank you so much for sharing that.

  22. themuttprincess May 30, 2008 10:17 am

    I think that is a sign you will accomplish A LOT more than you thought.

    Being bitchy is a very good modivator for the ones around you!

  23. sue May 30, 2008 11:49 am

    It was such a shock to see the pictures and hear the reports. My heart really does go out to you and your family. I hope the storms last night didn’t hit you? You don’t need more rain on top of it all.

  24. Robina May 30, 2008 11:49 am

    Oh boy. And so it goes with Mother Nature. Completly unpredictable.

  25. maggie, dammit May 30, 2008 12:31 pm

    Britt I don’t know if you’re seeing these or not but I’m here. I’m reading. I’m thinking of you.

    xoxoxo

  26. Sybil Law May 30, 2008 1:31 pm

    Well, it’s better than NOT having the period, right?! See? Silver lining!
    Yeah - someone can slap me now.
    :heartbeat:

  27. Mindy May 30, 2008 9:41 pm

    Now you can really make things happen. You and your hemorrhaging uterus will get shit done! Meanwhile you deserve this :hug:

  28. Dragon May 30, 2008 9:59 pm

    Even in a crisis, you’re still one of the funniest people I know. :hug: :ohgreatone:
