No, don't worry ChoCho - the licorice will mean it's just a drooling head on a cushion, so no need to splash out on padding. Clouds, silver linings, etc. ...
Ski - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I really thought this was your month. Big hug and a thwack round the head with a novelty frying pan for you... THWACK!!!
Well, I've possibly had a babyfail and TYF has had a brainfail - think I might already have ovulated insanely early (although if D1 of cycle started when the braaaahn bits started, it would be spot on time, aaargh - I'm counting D1 as day proper bleeding started). Have been having much gusset-ruining wetness - although no actual FFJ - for last few days, plus feeling horny and energetic, etc. AND had a temp dip. Now I am having much less lady-moisture and temp has risen dramatically. TYF has been scared to have non-condom sex cos of potential future repeated cock-breakage but had agreed to 'endanger' himself when ovulating. But he wouldn't do it this week (he's a very anxious, delicate flower). Just been screeching explaining that we might have missed our chance this month and he actually said 'but you can just get pregnant another day - your period isn't due for nearly 3 wks. It doesn't have to just be when you're ovulating, does it - only having a couple of days when you can get pregnant would be ridiculous'. After shouting 'BOH' at him in a Joey Deacon-stylee, I explained to him about how short the 'window' of ovulation is, esp. for BESHes (in the kind of voice people used in the 1950s for speaking to retarded children). SUUULLLK!
Of course, I might not have OVed yet and all is well, but the signs aren't good, are they? I was even getting a light cramping yesterday. POKPOK said no, but I did it after 6pm and I'd been drinking loads of water, so it was v dilute. Aaaaargh, and the madness commences.
Sorry guys. Just really wanted to drop the butter dish for birthday. For some reason, 37 scares me far more than 35. My twin Lyra will have to do it for us both if I really have missed my chance. But I prolly haven't. Okay, I deserve my title as palace menkal. I don't have to wear a jester's hat, do I?
PS TYF has offered to take me to the library to 'make it up to me'.
