• Too funny! Been there, done that, still doing that!! I'm in my 30's so go figure!!

• I read your post earlier, then just read something funny in the Ig Nobel awards on National Geographic and had to come back to share -- I hope you find it funny! Apparently the same cycle applies to strippers. ;-)

  "The prize in economics went to Geoffrey Miller, Joshua Tybur, and Brent Jordan of the University of New Mexico, who had discovered that lap dancers' tip earnings rise and fall with their ovulatory cycles—from an average of U.S. $70 per hour when about to ovulate to just $35 during menstruation.

  Previous studies had shown that women in mid-cycle have faces and breasts that are more attractive to men, as well as a more appealing scent, Miller said.

  Research also suggests that many women are happier at this time."

• Thanks! You know females who live together tend to have their cycles at the same time. That is true with me and one of my teenage daughters. Oh boy, let me tell you it's not fun!

• I feel ya. I really do!
