Yey for us!

I know, I’ve been extremely lazy and have not done anything about this blog thingee. And it’s not like I’ve been that busy. Well, I have been busy enough because if I say I have not been busy, that means I was lying to all those people who call me to hang out.

Really, I’ve been busy!

Fortunately, all this spring busy-ness is coming to an end. Work is slowing down and I have only one more wedding to attend (nobody else better get married this year! – I know I will not). Of course, now that I finally got my friend to give my board a ride, I will be AWOL for the rest of the summer. This should be nice because all this drinking is beginning to show.

And for something completely different, I have been really excited to learn that drug companies have developed yet another pill that will stop menstrual periods completely. Yey! I can’t wait to pump my body full of chemicals and hormones so that I don’t have any periods. This makes me wonder – who is this really benefiting? Let’s examine:

For women
Pros: no periods, no babies
Cons: no periods, daily ingestion of hormones and chemicals, weight gain, loss of sexual drive, headaches, moodiness, blood clots

For men
Pros: no periods, no babies
Cons: sore dick from all that sexin’ (this actually may be a pro). Oh, I guess also fat partner who is never in the mood.

Hmm, maybe it’s time for some semen halting pills.
