cry of agony, TMI



I WANT MY BIRTH CONTROL BACK RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.

SERIOUSLY, BODY, THIS IS GOD-FUCKING-DAMN RIDICULOUS.

THIS IS MY SECOND-TO-LAST DAY OF VACATION. FUCKING STOP IT I HATE YOU.

*cries*

I need chocolate, the world's largest hot water bottle, an overdose of Motrin, John Sheppard to rub my back (I don't care that he'd be horrified), and Castiel to soothe my troubled brow right this instant.

He wouldn't probably be horrified as long as you didn't tell him WHY he was giving you a back rub and didn't ask him to talk about his feelings. Heaven help you if you asked about his feelings. And, though I don't really follow it, couldn't Castiel just like, wave away the pain? I like to live in that delusional moment all the time. That there is something out there that could go, "Not planning on a baby this month? Oh. Cool. Poof! All better, right?"

I am off of birth control and ON Prenatals and I swear to you because of hormones I want to kill people for four days a month. Like, visually accomplish it in my head, feel bad for my husband and my MIL (who is coming into town TODAY. D'oh.) So I feel your pain. I send you all the mental chocolate I am not hording to myself. ;)

Still, it's the... touching. Maybe if I told him to do it for Rodney.

And, though I don't really follow it, couldn't Castiel just like, wave away the pain?

He could, but I have a feeling he would say suffering is good for the soul. Sigh.

Grah, yes! I also dream that there would be, like, a button I could push, or a switch to flip on and off to indicate that, hey, I think I'd like to try for a kid this month, so preparations need to begin. Otherwise, the factory stays shut until I give the say-so.

(God, this is what they call a design flaw.)

*pets [livejournal.com profile] aesc's head carefully* Sweetie, if I could, I'd send all that stuff over to you immediately, including John and Castiel, and I'd explain to John that it does not matter if he's horrified, he needs to just suck it up and deal.

Perhaps you can curl up with last night's Bones ep to cheer you up?

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
a;lsjds;dlskjd that is the other thing! I didn't get to watch Bones last night, a combination of my mom and my having to take the dogs out at 8:30ish. There is something crazy going on with the parents' computer that won't let me install my torrenting software, so no downloads for me until I get home :( :( At least there will be something to look forward to on Monday night, when I get back.

[identity profile] mardia.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Sweetie, just go on Hulu.com and watch the streaming video! Or, if you like, I can totally send you download links so that you can watch the .avi file with VLC player, if you prefer. Trust me, this episode was AWESOME.

And okay, this is slightly off-topic, but the coincidence is too much to ignore--my own Aunt Flo decided to pay a visit, right in the middle of my midterm exam. (Thank Christ, I didn't put two and two together, because that exam was difficult enough, thank YOU.)

Oh, Friday the 13th, why so cruel?

You, too, then? Yesterday and today at work were hell.

Grah, I've been on BC for the past several months, but had to go off it as part of the regimen (it's one of those "three months on, one off" routines), and I want it back right now. Or yesterday. Stupid body, God I hate it.

*sends (pleasantly drunken) John Sheppard bearing a heating pad*

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)
He is trying to apply it to my foot, Ambers :|

[identity profile] kimberweeme.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, poor thing! *sends you John after a serious chat and promise that he can have Rodney afterward*

Yeah, I started taking BC for regulation and pain and it is glorious! I never want to stop. I totally understand. There should be a button you can push that stops it all for as long as you want.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 01:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I never want to stop.

Yes yes yes! I think BC and I will be on close terms for a very, very long time.

*sends along Ronon as backup, which is a good thing as Ronon has VERY BIG and VERY WARM hands and he's ALL ABOUT the touching*

Oh, darling, I'm so very sorry. (It won't help if I tell you about the hormone-releasing IUD I got after having Z, so I won't. But it might be an option for you?)

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 01:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Oooooooh yay Ronon, the more the merrier! Or the more the less painful :D

[identity profile] randomeliza.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Man, that SUCKS. I wish we got recompensed for some of the agony we get put through, being women.

I have to say, I love my birth control implant - three years of not having to take pills, no periods after the first three-six months... it's SO worth investigating if your periods are that bad.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh man, that sounds like heaven. HEAVEN I TELL YOU.

I am all for an IUD, but the problem is that my current insurance (because I go to a Certain School that has Strong Feelings about birth control) doesn't cover it, and I've heard it's hell to get the insurance provider to agree to special-circumstances coverage. Right now my BC is sort of... under-the-table BC, because my roommate's dad is an OB-GYN and can get us the stuff for free.

Which is probably a bad thing to do, but hey, it means I don't have cramps.

[identity profile] randomeliza.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not an IUD, so it doesn't require the surgery that IUDs do, but it's still expensive - my insurance didn't cover it, so mine was $600. But oh my god it's worth it. It's great that you're getting yours for free, though.

I hope you feel better soon, bb. *pets gently*

[identity profile] perspi.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Just to clarify a (little, tiny) point: My IUD required no surgery--it's an outpatient thing my regular OB-GYN was able to do, no more complicated than your average lady-bits exam.

*hugs for all*

[identity profile] randomeliza.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
For me, having never had a kid, it would have required dilating my cervix? My OB-GYN classifies that as surgery, though I'm sure some don't. Whereas my implant thing (Implanon) required a topical numbing and an injection, took all of 15 minutes. I know IUDs are easier when you've had kids, and they really dissuade you from getting one if you haven't had kids.

*hearts her Implanon*

Ah, see, I did not know this! Very interesting, and thank you.

[identity profile] randomeliza.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, you're welcome. I had a big freakout over birth control this past summer and did gobs of research on it. And let me tell you, my gyno's explanation of the cervix dilating process has made me seriously ponder whether I want to have kids at all. THANKS DR. HURRY. HA HA NO I GET IT WILL SUCK OK. THANKS FOR REITERATING.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 12:58 pm (UTC)(link)
For me, having never had a kid, it would have required dilating my cervix?

I have heard this too! And hearing other women talk about persuading their doctors into an IUD when they hadn't had kids yet... Ow. Ow.

But the implant, on the other hand, sounds promising! Pills aren't a huge problem for me, because I take other things every day anyway, but it'd be nice to cross one more thing off my ABSOLUTELY MUST BE DONE BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE HOUSE list. Maybe I will start saving up, so I don't have to wait for work insurance a couple years down the road. *crosses fingers that there will be work insurance*

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 12:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It's great that you're getting yours for free, though.

Sometimes, when I'm on BC and also sitting in the student center writing filthy dirty slashfic, I think to myself, "I'm in ur campus, bein uncatholic."

[identity profile] insight2.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
*pets you gently* If you want I can get Castiel to smite John if John doesn't rub your back.

Also I saw this pic (http://www.boston.com/travel/gallery/zoo_babies?pg=26) and thought of you. I like how the girlcub is all possessive over her ball- deceptively cute but will CHOMP your hand if you try to take it away from her.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 12:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, Castiel, he does love gettin' his smite on, doesn't he? (Speaking of which... you need to waaaaaatch this week's ep, come hell and/or high water!)

a;sldjsd;lskd BABY PANDA!

[identity profile] toft-froggy.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Oh nooo, horrible, you poor thing. John Sheppard winces from afar at you and maybe draws a little closer when Rodney snaps at him to stop being such a baby, and then he comes and gives you a proper backrub as long as Rodney looks over approvingly at him from the laptop every so often. Then Rodney gives him a quick kiss on the cheek as he heads out, and John's ears go pink.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Eeeeee *is warm and happy inside now* Brave John, gettin' his reward :D

[identity profile] rsharpe.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
Sometimes I feel so lucky that all of that is behind me. I'm not even taking the hormones anymore. And, you know what, I feel great! Small comfort to you, I know. But after years of suffering terribly for every single, damm month, this is so much better. Makes it so much better to plan trips without worrying that sometimes right in the middle of an otherwise good time . . . the curse would strike.

[identity profile] aesc.livejournal.com 2009-03-14 12:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my god, I am counting the years /o\ Haaaaaate.

John is a soldier. He'd buckle up and do it! *sends virtual chocolate*

At least, he would tell himself, there are no clowns :D
