Wacky was what I was going for so it's all good.

The finished haircut looks like a homeless three year old. And I love it.

So, the birth control I use is called Nuvaring. It's a plastic hormone-releasing ring that goes in your vagina. Usually doesn't get in the way during sexual activities, but the other night during those it did fall out.

Guy: Um... this fell out.
Me: Oh, thanks. *sticks back in*
Guy: ...Is there a rave going on in your vagina?
Me: Yeah, a sperm-killing rave.

er.. not to derail this thread... but does that nuvaring thing actually work? my significant other is curious about switching to it since her pills have recently been giving her some problems...

Yes! I don't get terrible periods, but it has shortened them a little and eased some symptoms. As far as use for birth control, absolutely yes. I have followed the instructions and it's been 2 years now I think? No pregnancies. You just have to remember to take it out after 3 weeks. It's not difficult at all and it's less hormones than pills. Gah, I sound like an advertisement. Tell her to ask her doctor about it, but I have nothing but good things to say!

sweet. I'll pass the info on. Although I can see it now... "dear, I did some research on your monthly womanly issues... and a friend really, really suggests that nuvaring thing... so, I think you should switch to it. Yes, thats it." >.>

Well you said she was curios about it so you can just tell her that one of your friends recently posted about it and is a big fan. Doesn't have to be too awkward. Now if you brought home pamphlets and print outs from the internet that might be a bit much. lol

Ummm ummm TMI huh? Earlier in the week I groomed all things that needed to be groomed. Sure I'm the only one who gets to enjoy the spoils of this, but hell it's nice to feel tidy and clean everywhere! \o/

Once a year, just before Florida changes from the summer heat to the slightly-less-hot fall climate, my human-snake duality surfaces and my feet shed their old armor to reveal a new epidermis, fit to protect me from the harsh winter to come (...).

That's not the TMI. I like to pick at it and leave dead skin everywhere. >_> This has been noticed. Heh.

I've been holding this back since I first read this, but I just can't anymore. This made me think of a rather pervy ring toss.

I am so grossed out right now!

I looked at the toilet and saw this hair clinging to the side. I figured it was one of the hairs from my head, because since my hair has gotten really long, I've been shedding everywhere. So I reached down to pluck it off of the side and then realized I was holding this really long pube. I threw it into the toilet and flushed it away, but I know that I've been keeping myself groomed downstairs so there's no way that long pube could be mine. This means it must have been my mom's.

Eww ewww eww ewww eww. I can't wash my hands enough!

wow.

The halloween cocktails may have had a funny effect on my bowels. My poo might have had a bit of a green tint today......

Riding a bicycle when you have a guiche piercing can sometimes be rather sore.

I have a moster zit on my cheek.

I will not pop it...I will not pop it...I wil not..

awh, who am I kidding?
I'm gonna pop the hell outta that sucker.

Specialized, and probably some other bike companies, make split saddles (I think they're called) that might help with that.

They're mainly designed to stop you getting numb balls and it seems to work.

Ever try a coffee filter? You know those accordion-circle-like things you put in coffee machines to brew the joe. Yeah. Used that before. Not too great.

Guess what I'm wearing right now?

I LOVE living alone

I currently have garlic breath so strong it could kill numerous vampires and possibly even a zombie or two.

My stomach hurt super bad today. I talking BAD bad. I felt like I was going to die.
Then I went home and my mom suggested pepto. I kinda rolled my eyes but figured it was worth a try.

Fast forward to ten minutes later and I start farting. A lot. Loudly.


My stomach doesn't hurt anymore.
Thanks, mom!

Mums are awesome sometimes

Had an upset tummy years ago, something I ate upset it I guess so I did the same thing and upchucked, hard lol.

I don't trust anything of that Pepto-ish pinkness now. Nothing LOL!

I have been taking Tramadol recently for my abdominal pain. As per usual with opiates, you find yourself ... "backed up" in the words of my GP. Stool softeners are the answer. Not so much fun.

"backed up"
I like that. Such a polite way to put it.

I freakin' love pepto. I've had a lot of people tell me I'm weird because of it, but I love the way it taste. Just ever-so-slightly pepperminty.

Thanks to the impending winter, my skin is revolting and drying up. So just like every year, I'm getting these big red sore patches in the corners of my elbows and on the backs of my knees. They're just there because my skin is so sensitive and they're not really anything worse than super-dry skin. But they totally make me look like I have a horrible disease, or am maybe in the beginning stages of becoming a zombie.

Probably the zombie thing.


Edit: God, no more writing posts after 1am for me anymore. I had to go back and correct just about every other word.

I get that all year. For me it's psoriasis and it tends to get worse in the winter because I don't get vitamin D from the sun as much. You could try some Vitamin D supplements to help that. I've also found aquafor at night to be very helpful.

since i am ALWAYS on tramadol because of its mood-balancing properties when mixed with other things, all-bran helps if you guys have that in the UK. i find that the effects of tramadol > pooping.

Various pulses work, too. Yay! Fibre!
I went to see a doctor about the pain for the fourth time, today. He sent me to the nurse to get blood and urine samples tested*. It took me FOREVER to piss in the pot; when it was time to leave, I had to go to the loo. FFFffffffffffff.
Also, I pooped today, and was so proud of myself I announced it to Monty. He said "well done" and offered me a cookie.

*I'm not pregnant, I have no abnormalities in my urine, and I have a fifth appointment booked for Thursday so the doctor can stroke his chin, go "hmmm" and tell me that "hopefully it will go away soon". At least that's what I expect will happen- it's what's happened the last four times.

I hear that in the Netherlands, they will say that to you for pretty much anything except bone sticking through your skin. 'Go to bed' is their universal cure apparently.

I'm in great shape today.

Yesterday I had to go to a funeral and I didn't want to get two sets of clothes dirty so I just wore my dress clothes all day. The downside is that my slacks have elastic in the waistband and I'm allergic to elastic, so by the end of the day my waist was irritated and covered in sores. One of the sores was so large, that when I went to bed and simply touched it, it exploded puss. Yay.

Secondly, I forgot today was an armpit shaving day and so I didn't shave them. Because of this, my armpits are now irritated from stubble rubbing them every time I move my arms.

I announced this on Facebook, so it's probably not actually TMI, but I forgot to finish my first round of antibiotics and got tonsillitis again. My tonsils were so huge they offered me a shot of steroid to deflate them, and brought a nurse practitioner in to look at them because they were so impressive. I'm finishing my antibiotics this time...

I've been lazy and haven't flossed in a week and when I flossed today a huge piece of plaque came out from in between my teeth and it smelled of death.

My mom currently has the most horrible gas. She's sitting across the room from me and I was trying to enjoy my breakfast, but she can't seem to stop farting. Oh and the farts smell so horrible, it's like I'm sitting in a port-a-potty that hasn't been cleaned out in a week. Just when the smell starts to dissipate, she'll fart again. You know how smells can affect the way your food tastes? Well I had 3 very wrong tasting mouthfuls of cereal. Ughh.

I think Lo is winning the thread at the moment.

Personally... Umm... No, I'm living quite a sanitary life at the moment.

Oo, I know, we've got a tiny toilet. Literally: I've seen people with waistbands bigger than the entire room. It also has one of those weird shelf things in the loo. When you poo it just sits there until you flush. I have no idea why anyone thinks this is a good idea. Small room, exposed poo = very smelly room sometimes. Yuck.

Clean clean clean clean clean... I'd be scrubbing that thing every day, and I'm not normally one for excessive cleanliness.

I just spent an entire week farting. At the longest, there was about twenty minutes between farts. I woke up one night due to a particularly large fart.

They ALL smelled. Terribly.

I am really struggling to bring myself to post something appropriate in this thread.

I don't want you all to start looking down on me because of one TMI post, the way I now look down on you people

We just look down on you right now, for not sharing. No worries.

I feel like part of the group now

This is kind of a TMI/complaint.

My bathroom door really doesn't aid in any privacy. It has a small door frame so getting a real door that actually fits it is quite expensive so we've always had these hinged pantry style doors. Anyway the point is no privacy and basically anyone who is in the Kitchen can hear exactly what you are doing if you are in there. If we're being nice to each other, we'll stay out of the kitchen if we hear someone go into the bathroom so they can have their privacy.

So since my mom has retired, I hardly ever get any alone time/privacy. She also seems to always seem to need to be in the kitchen anytime I try to have my morning poo. If she's not in the kitchen doing something, she suddenly has to come in there to talk to me, or she needs to use the bathroom too so she'll go into the kitchen and pace. Today, I waited until she went in her office to do her emails and she got up and came into the kitchen to let me know her mouse battery had died. That couldn't wait until I was done?

My perfectly timed sleep yesterday (and schedule for most of the day thereafter) was interrupted/ruined by my bowels deciding they needed to drip what can best be described as tar in several increments over most of the morning.

I will think twice before adding my so much cayenne and minced garlic to the spaghetti sauce again.

It took me about a half an hour this morning to realize my period had started and by the time I woke up enough to realize it I had to run to the bathroom to take care of things. The issue with that was that I was half asleep so running across the house was more like stumbling and running into things as I made my way there.

My uterus has the worst timing ever.

I have the most intense cramps and heaviest flow I can remember having since the Great Menstrual Explosion of '05. I'm cranky and sore and about to get in a car which may or may not get stuck in traffic as everyone tries to get home for Christmas.

This cannot end well. Please, please, please let me not bleed everywhere.

those were precisely my thoughts today!

Holy crap! Look at that! SIX YEARS!

Mefenamic acid is your friend!

I have way too many painful pimple-like things on my pubic area from shaving. edit: trimming. i don't even *shave* up there. I don't know what causes 'em. Not even near the girly bits, above them. It sucks.

Also, I couldn't tell if I had a stomach bug yesterday or just had a sensitive stomach because of my period, but everything I ate came out as watery, *painful* diarrhea. I almost thought they were cramps they hurt so much. I was on the toilet whimpering. Glad that's over...

So, double post. Foreskin. Not *too* familiar with the uncircumcised penis. Apparently it can be speckly and/or splotchy with coloring?

Foreskins that look speckly or blotchy? Hmm... That's possible. They change a lot depending on arousal and warmth. I can imagine they could be blotchy if they are cold, but even so, that does sound a little odd. Maybe get the owner of the foreskin to go see a doctor? If it's bad circulation causing it then that's something to be a little worried about. GUI clinics have free anonymous consultations if the person doesn't want to see their regular doctor.

Hmm. I once knew a guy with vitiligo who said the splotches occurred on his penis as well. Does the guy have any blotches elsewhere?

Either way, I'd probably advise him to see a doctor or go to a free clinic. :/

Ahh, I don't know about spots elsewhere, I don't think so. It didn't seem so much out of the ordinary as it was just different colors? Like a pattern. Decor penis almost. I have absolutely no idea. It seemed part of the skin, not any sort of irritation or anything. He's a friend I know well enough for me to think he is proactive about his health, so I think if it was an issue he would know? I dunno. I'm tempted to GIS and try to find what I'm saying, but that's a horrible idea, so I don't think so.

Hmm, patchy all over sounds like an infection. It wouldn't necessarily cause irritation but it might not be so kind to any partners. If it's not causing him problems then it's probably not too serious, but it definitely sounds like he should have that checked. Foreskins aren't supposed to come in camoflage patterns and that's a bad sign for sure.

I have three suggestions, and mean no offence.

1) You are accurate and correct in diagnosing what's going on.
2) Molluscum contagiosum
3) HPV

Regardless, my suggestion is to go to a clinic for peace of mind.

Ewww. When I used the waterpik this morning, I discovered a chunk of something in between my teeth. I am almost certain it was a piece of carrot.

I haven't eaten carrots since Tuesday.
