Death by Mother Nature

You guys out there have no clue how lucky you are. At all. Men have it so easy, its the girls that have to go through all of this hogwash. For instance, when we have our periods. Its like freaking death. I was having really bad cramps today, but I went to work anyways after popping some Tylenol. It was going to be very busy, so I wasn't to excited about it. But anyways, I went anyways. Upon getting there, my cramps hit me full on to the point where I was doubling over in pain. The Tylenol was not working. I started to cry because one, I was in a crap load of pain, and two, I'm on my period so I'm emotional. Sue me. Running to the bathroom I tried to calm myself down, to no avail. I honestly thought I was going to die. Dragging myself to the staff room I sat down and cried, drinking some raspberry tea that I made. But the darn tea wasn't working either. Then I felt it, I was going to throw up. Running to the bathroom I got into the stall just in time. I told my supervisor, who is also my mom, what had happened and she told me to either suck it up, or go home. Now I was angry. I just threw up! So I looked at her and she rolled her eyes, telling me to go home. She then reminded me how busy it was going to be, and I told her that I really didn't have a choice in being sick.

Now I'm sitting at home, wrapped up in my fuzzy blanket with my laptop battery on my stomach to help with the cramps. I feel so guilty having to leave them on a day like this... but there really isn't anything I can do about it. Its still not helping me feel less guilty though. Ugh! And on top of this I don't get a turkey dinner :( Now excuse me while I go die.

Edit: I am not dead, and I have now had turkey dinner :)
