10.24.2003 Weight: 271Mood: stupid frigging water retention Did you know that women retain water during high-estrogen periods in their monthly reproductive cycles? I.e. just before they ovulate? I didn't know that until today, which explains why I appear to be going backwards on the fukaktah scale, despite the fact that I haven't eaten anything illegal and have worked my butt off for the last couple of days (and have the bruises on my right arm from fencing to prove it). However, I should pee it all away by Sunday, so at least that's something. Bleah. I hate ovulating -- I always feel like crap during it (bloating, headache, fatigue), and this time I have the added sensation that something's stuck in my throat and my left side keeps stinging. If I die before Sunday, Lyndon is designated as my literary executor, as well as the recipient of all my stuff. Bah. I wave my paw. LATER: Oh, God, no wonder. It's a migraine (I only get them occasionally, and they're atypical so I get all the symptoms EXCEPT the head-splitting pain). It's off to a dark, cool, quiet room for me and some Excedrin, thank you very freaking much. |
