My new BC pill does wonders for my PMDD. My mental stability has been great. Problem is, I’ve been in pain with constant stomach upset every day. I keep waiting for it to go away, but it’s not going away. Can I just have something that works and also doesn’t hurt me? ---

I expect the men I date to poop in the house—quite specifically, in the appropriate room using the appropriate equipment. On the floor or even in the yard is kind of a deal-breaker. ---

You do you, dear. But understand his vax hangup is _probably_ the tippiest tip of a vast and growing reservoir of crazy. Which he will demand you adopt making you crazy. Someone with great resources of strength and independence might be able visit that place for awhile while looking for better. But somebody who’s not strong will get trapped. Best of luck whatever you decide. ---

It was the best decision in the world to have my son’s swim lessons at 8:30am on a Saturday. Logistically perfect, minus one small quibble: getting up at 6:15am every fucking Saturday! Ok, I thought, I can rest when I get home. Nope, my poor **Spouse Weasel** is violently ill from a food reaction. He ate something he wasn’t supposed to. So now I’m playing nursemaid. Mother in law is visiting from Florida so it’s a bummer of a weekend to be sick. Maybe if the kid naps in an hour, I’ll have some peace and quiet. ---
