> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Coldfire \* > \*\*\*\*Steve Wright, if you don’t mind me asking: have you lost weight? Or is my memory shot? 🙂 \*\* I resist the temptation to suggest that your memory has been ruined by all those Certain Substances in Amsterdam\* … I’ve been dieting for quite a while now, and have consequently declined in size from Alarmingly Vast And Spherical to merely Extra-Large Economy Size. Thank you for noticing, it makes it seem almost worthwhile. (What would make it _really_ worthwhile, naturally, is if I can slim down enough for loose women to find me desirable.) \*Tulips have been show to have a profound effect on cognitive abilities, especially when they’re in a pot and dropped on someone’s head. ---

I was most upset. meh. ---

Heh. As if anyone gives a wet slap, I figured out why it was I turned into Avoidant Antisocial No Fun Girl at about 9pm. PMS. Let’s all clap hands and wave our arses at the Moon Goddess, boys and girls. ---

That would do fine. The funny thing is that something as periodic\* as PMS can take me by surprise pretty much every time. Ah! 3-4 days of sporadically feeling like either hiding under a rock or hitting things with it, what can that possibly be? General autumnal blah? Recurrence of depression? or… dum dun durrr… sommat hormonal? My culture hasn’t invented calendars yet. That must be it. \*(dyswidt?) ---
