Since I'm not pregnant...

I still have this pesky period. Last night I realized that we are out of pads and pamprin. K said that I wasn't very prepared for getting my period, but I reminded her that this is a house with two fertile women, and I wasn't that last one to have a period, and when she used up the pads and pamprin, it was her responsibility to add them to the grocery list. So today I asked my Mexican male coworker friend to go out to lunch with me and we stopped at Safeway on the way back. He was a little confused and embarrassed when we stopped in the feminine hygiene section. But now I'm all stocked up with pads and ready to ride out this period.
