Mmm- you want serious? Fine- I can do Serious. No, I can't- but I'll put an arm around Serious, and pose for the camera..
Well, periods have some good aspects:
1) I am too long-suffering, and do not say the things that need to be said in a timely matter- but when Aunt Flow is in town, with her immoral support, I tell it like it is and like it should be.
2) I slow down a bit, and have some time to myself.
