that was way more effective than any birth control television commercial i've ever seen.

holy hell i hear you. it's all about finding the right mint but dang that can take some time. hope the sads get better soon.

I love the new banner.

Also, I've been on and off The Pill (like the caps?) for 10 years (and I'm only 24... what can I say, I was a slutty teenager) and so far this one hasn't been doing any of those magic things for me! It's been two months and my skin isn't much better, I still get moody as fuck and have forgotten what a vegetable is.

Le sigh. Pass le bread basket?

I was that bionic woman for almost a decade...

And then recently? I started PMSing even though I haven't stopped taking it. WTF?

Hooray for getting old!

super careo- that dude does not get enough credit....

2009-05-12T12:03:00.000-07:00

super careo- that dude does not get enough credit. i want to know his name so i can find him and love him and not have his children.

bwp- if by crazy you mean awesome, then yes. i agree. you are CRAZY AWESOME.

parenthetical-clearly we are having parallel thoughts. or the same thoughts. attempt to respond cleverly to your blog name: FAIL.

bex- the christians were apparently right when they said prayer is the answer. i didn't know they were referring to that though.

meghan- yes, that is exactly why i did get off. i will probably get off in two months when

yifo- have you tried loestrin? i am convinced it is the ONLY one that works bionically. you have to take it at the same time everyday it is so low.

cool- agreed. that is why men have to deal with our craziness and just put up with it.

rs27- crack pills? oh hell yeah. i am definitely getting on those as a back up plan.

shine- yeah, mine isn't really that dignified either. but my mom reads this blog.

chele- yes! pills and wonderboy! you got it made.

miss em- never go au natural. it is not worth knowing.

and everyone-THANK YOU for agreeing with me. i was afraid no one would understand and instead, we are all in it together. much like twittering and drunk texting.

2009-05-12T11:28:00.000-07:00

I've been on 'em since I was 13 - no I wasn't, errmm, 'active' at 13, just had a shocking case of acne that even hardcore zit pills couldn't fix. Two days on the lady pills, and my skin was utter perfection. I'm petrified to ever come off. Hey, just realised that I've been on them more than half my life. Howzat? I've forgotten what au natural feels like.

oh yeah I stopped the wonder pills for twp months ...

2009-05-12T00:01:00.000-07:00

oh yeah I stopped the wonder pills for twp months and it was no fun at all, then I got a man so back on the pills

2009-05-11T23:23:00.000-07:00

Amen sister. I never want to do that launching thing you speak of. Although I've never referred to my lady parts as dignified, per se, since I call them "lady" I think the implication is there.

So thats the pill girls take? I always just assume...

2009-05-11T21:43:00.001-07:00

So thats the pill girls take? I always just assumed it was Crack pills.

Babies hate that.

It's a hard knock life. For us women.

2009-05-11T19:42:00.000-07:00

GIRL. This post? = Me on birth control. Shit makes me looney toons. I mean more looney tunes than usual.

Which is sad, because I'd love to become this bionic woman of which you speak.

2009-05-11T18:36:00.000-07:00

I start the pill every time I think sex is the horizon, and then stop when I realize it's just an expensive daily reminder I'm not getting any. This happens every other month. So I get to be manic AND play russian roulette with the ovaries.Win-win!

Good plan with sticking to the minty fresh baby stoppers.

Oh Clove-ster, I feel you on numbers uno a seis. ...

2009-05-11T16:31:00.000-07:00

Oh Clove-ster, I feel you on numbers uno a seis. I went off the pill because it had an undesired side effect on my lady parts that I will not disclose to the Internets because, ew, and now I have to resort to alternative forms baby preventing.

And by that I mean prayer.

2009-05-11T15:09:00.000-07:00

I went off the 'mints' only once in the last eight years and it was baaad. Birth control pills are a miracle drug and a gift from god and I will never doubt their wonderfulness ever again.

2009-05-11T15:08:00.000-07:00

I am crazy now but I was way crazier on the pill. I tried a million different kinds and I was always crying and yelling at strangers. Okay so I still do that but I SWEAR it was worse when I was on bc. Now I just stick to the pull out method. Or if that doesn't go according to plan, I throw myself down stairs. JUST KIDDING MOM IF YOURE READING

2009-05-11T15:03:00.000-07:00

I TOTALLY understand. One time I had the brilliant plan to switch from the pill to the shot thinking that 1. I wouldn't have to remember to take a pill everyday and 2. no periods! Ever! (which is a flat out lie because you spot for-ev-er).

WELL. Let's just say that about 2 months into my 3 month stint, I was back in the doctor's office BEGGING to get back on the pill because I had absolutely NO CONTROL over my emotions. One second I would be high on life and the next second I would be so livid that I would have to excuse myself from whatever I was doing lest I strangle the next person I saw.

The moral of the story is: Hormones in a pill are the greatest medical discovery EVER.
