I used to think that I was a good writer. But, since joining MN, I have to face the sad realisation that this is untrue. If I comment on a thread, it dies, and if I start a thread, no one answers! I give up. I know I am a good reader, I will stick to that from now on....

ZenOfPetals · 25/05/2013 17:41

I would like post number 999, as nine is my lucky number. I am going to try an illustration again:

(!)(!)

Sore tits.

My breasts are SO sore! I was at the doctor the other day, and told her, so she did a pregnancy test, (blood one) but the results take a while here, so I bought some from the cheap shop, did one and it was negative. But the box had two tests in it...

ZenOfPetals · 25/05/2013 17:52

ZZZenagain · 25/05/2013 18:06

thanks for rescuing my thread, that is brilliant have an idea what to do with it!

Thumbtack · 25/05/2013 18:35

Grin @ yay fresh meat

other zzzen so, what is Fenchel?

I can't cook for toffee, so I'm afraid I'd be of no use to you.
I am trying to learn how to cook though . .

Thumbtack · 25/05/2013 18:37

original zen (in relation to this thread)

Do you think you could be?

amazingmumof6 · 25/05/2013 18:42

yes what is Fenchel?

TT

I'm good at cooking and baking. happy to help. unless you are cooking Fenchel.

I think it's code for dinner that's screwed up so badly French people wouldn't be able to bear.
It's French Hell!

in context: "how is everything in the kitchen, darling?"
"shit shit shit. don't ask. It's FENCHELL!"Angry

ZZZenagain · 25/05/2013 18:42

embarrassingly there is no such thing which is probably partly the reason why no one responded! Supposed to be fennel

Thumbtack · 25/05/2013 18:50

That is so funny zzzen what happened? Autocorrect or did you not hear it right?

I'm calling it french-hell from now.

amazingmumof6 · 25/05/2013 19:32

Fenchel anyone?Grin Grin Grin

ZZZenagain · 25/05/2013 19:33

I will not admit to it, it makes me look too stupid. I'm sticking with ze French 'ell. It's cute

amazingmumof6 · 25/05/2013 20:00

ZZZe French'll it is!Grin

ZenOfPetals · 25/05/2013 20:18

I am so pleased with this thread. What began as a plantive whinge has evolved into a punctuation, punch- line playground, full of zen and exotice veg.

I have too much prolactin (all the time), which is why I was at the docs., but when she suggested pregnancy, I was all excited. But I only have the one cheap test left. On the likely side, tits are sore and AF is late. On the unlikely side, too much prolactin causes sore boobs and erratic cyles, and I am 43 and we hardly DTD lately...

OP posts:
ZenOfPetals · 25/05/2013 20:19

EXOTIC veg, why do I keep adding e's to words, like in this topice?

OP posts:
Iteotwawki · 25/05/2013 20:31

Ooooh. PunctuationPlayground - that's fab. I may steal it! (May I?)

Extra ees currently reminds me of Slimming World Extra Easy which then reminds me of all the lemon pastries I ate yesterday. I should probably eat more Fenchel, I suspect it's good for weight loss!

Zing the namechange is going badly. I still haven't found a name that says "here I am, this is you!" ...

Zen - silly question (sorry) but have you had your pituitary checked? For the elevated prolactin?

ZenOfPetals · 25/05/2013 20:36

Use PunctuationPlayground as a name!

Yes, I had an MRI and I have a little tiny tumor
