Don't say these things, but...

Don't say these things, but DO say SOMETHING if someone you know seems off.  It wasn't until someone said to me "You are NOT ok.  You haven't been yourself in a long time." that I realized they were right and got help.

Having never experienced anything like that before in my life I didn't recognize it for what it was.  So take note and SPEAK UP.  Help is available, but you have to realize that something is wrong before you can fix it.

I went to bed before 10 pm last night.

I went to bed before 10 pm last night.  That usually doesn't happen unless I'm sick, but after all weekend + Monday of not being able to sleep I just CRASHED OUT.  I woke up because my dogs needed to go out, but I am debating on going back to bed.  There are a ton of things I could be doing this morning, not to mention that I could get to work early, so I have reasons to not do that.  But I still feel kind of drowsy.  But I also REALLY don't want to end up with a sleep hangover.

Decisions are hard.

Shadow is officially orientated.

Shadow is officially orientated. Ninth grade starts Thursday. Man, he's old!

I am trying to sleep, but...

I am trying to sleep, but I don't think it's happening.  I've felt totally crappy all weekend.  I've had a headache that I can't seem to shake since I woke up Saturday.  I tried to nap earlier, but could not... which is weird because I'm usually GREAT at sleeping.  I was a Grumpasaurus ALL WEEKEND - thank you PMS.    I am not a happy camper right now.  🙁

Also, I unleashed some of the PMS FEELS on Shaun earlier.  He told Shadow to use the wrong sponge on my dishes and I had a complete and total meltdown.  Look... to be fair I would have been upset about that ANY day because I'm weird about my sponges, sink, and dishes, and he knows that.  He didn't maliciously tell Shadow to use the wrong sponge, so I forgive him.  LOL  But today was an especially bad day for that to happen.  I think I cried for half an hour about that, and then almost immediately felt completely stupid and utterly ridiculous about it as soon as it was over.  I can sort of laugh at it now, but at the time I was devastated.

This is not new for me.  Those of you who have only known me during the past 6 years or so got to know the "level-hormoned Mirena Blu" who never had PMS... well, up until that stopped working out last year, and then you all met Depressed Blu.  But you can ask my mother and she would be happy to tell you (while laughing the whole time) a million stories about how I've come home after school crying because someone spoke to me with bad breath or because the cat ignored me.  I am a very emotional person in general, so when my hormones are all out of whack... oof.  I will cry at anything and you can't stop me.  I can't stop me.  It just has to run its course.

Anyway.  That's been my weekend.  On the bright side I did get a bunch of jewelry started, and it's not just flakies this time.

Well, I'm heading back to bed, so wish me luck.  I'm sure some sleep would do me good.  ❤

Someone reported my diaphragm photo as nudity...

Someone reported my diaphragm photo as nudity. That's pretty lame. Anyone care to own up to that? Maybe explain it? Because it's not nudity, or even vulgar. If anything, my posts are educational.

If you are against Sex Ed, delete me now. You are ignorant and part of the problem.  If you already aren't my friend, simply stop looking at my page.  I will not be censored.


Took a short nap and I'm feeling much better.

Took a short nap and I'm feeling much better. Gonna eat and then work on jewelry for a while. 🙂

Internet, I have felt like complete and utter crap all day.

Internet, I have felt like complete and utter crap all day. Ibuprofen hasn't stopped my headache and I have an overwhelming urge to nap right now. I really shouldn't because if I do I'll be up all night. I make no promises on staying awake, though. Blegh.
