Suckville.
Why does my body fuck with me? I KNOW what a period feels like, for the most part. It has been a long time since I had one, but dammit, why did I hold on to that one glimmer of hope despite the premenstral cramps? I know better than that.
The whole way home from work on Friday, I felt it coming. But no, my period holds off until I POAS. Then I see the evidence on the toilet tissue.
Aunt Flo, you bitch. You let me waste a pregnancy test. I have been performing toilet tissue analysis for a week now. Holding it to the light... does that look pink? Two inches from my face... does that look pink?
One line. Not two.

that fucking sucks. i'm so sorry.
ReplyDeleteRoccie, I swear to God that always happens to me. I can be three days late, and hold off and hold off, but you can be sure that as soon as I do a pregnancy test, my period shows. The first IVF cycle, it waited until I arrived at the hospital for my blood test to rear its ugly head, but then spotted lightly, just enough for me to think, oh maybe not, and then right before the phone call for yes or no, full flow. It's like it knows!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am very sorry. It's terrible and hateful. Sending love.
ReplyDeleteI just left a similar comment on another blog - WTF mother nature...seriously? SO OFTEN people hold out, hold out, and the second they pee on the stick there the bitch is saying "ha! made you look!"
ReplyDeleteIt sucks. It really does.
I have actually started peeing in a cup just for this reason. Yes, kinda gross having a pee cup, but damn I'm not gonna waste $5 on a wipe. Hiya, hope you don't mind me sticking around to keep you company.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry. Sending loads of love your way.
ReplyDeleteSeriously BLOWS! Red wine, Chocolate, Mani/Pedi! Do something to make it better. UGH!
ReplyDeleteSucky sucky sucktastic. And, yeah, I've wasted SO many HPT's this way. Aim, pee, wipe. There you go:(
