  • um.. so i was minding my own business in the copy room.. scanning documents. i look up as a guy walked into the office.. he was situating his pants so immediately my eyes looked to see what he was doing.. he is wearing sweats that are too small and i could see the outline of his penis. i want to gag. my eyes are bleeding..

    dear guy wearing small sweats,

             first, never wear sweats again to work. second, wear clothes your size. third, yes you are a horn ball but no one wants to stare at that.. put it away.

    signed- seeing what i saw makes me not want to eat.

  • Dear US Immigration,

    Can you please get your butts in gear and at least let me know what's going on with my Green Card. Or send it to me, which would be even better! 

    After all I only have a few more months before my passport expires and I need to get it re-newed! 

    Sincerely, 

    A frustrated Green Card holder

  • Rant: I'm sick today. SO sick - fever, chills, nausea, the whole 9. And I have no idea what from. I just shouldn't be allowed to leave the house. I am nearly always home and hardly ever get to go out anywhere anymore. I really wanted to go to the gtg, but I'm terrified of driving in rain and snow. Lame, I know - leftovers from my accident and I'm working through it in counseling. But when I do go out, I nearly always get sick. My immune system is horrible, and it doesn't seem to matter what I do to help it. /rant

    Rave: This is the first time I've actually been able to enjoy snow!

    Open letter: Dear doc,

    Please don't hurt me when you put the IUD in on Friday.

    That's all I've got for now. Smile

    Depending on how open you are to taking vitamins etc. You should try taking Vit. D  every day!

    Random question, how tall are you? I don't know if height is a direct correlation to uterus size, but if you're pretty short (like me, at a whopping 5'2") I'd ask to have your uterus measured via vaginal ultrasound first. 

    TMI, I tried to have an IUD put in and found out the hard way that my uterus is way too small for it. It was not a fun experience at all and it took every ounce of willpower not to barf and cry during the procedure.

    Is the Vit. D a separate pill? Just wondering because you can actually take a fair amount of it.. especially in the winter months when we get less natural Vit. D. from the sun.

    Hmm, good info for me to check with my doc. I'm 4'11" and have already been told that even if I wanted kids, they're not sure if a baby would carry to term because I have a small uterus and it's tilted. I'd probably have to have an early-term baby via c-section.

    Yes, it's separate. I take 2 2000 iu of vit. D capsules every day, in addition to the full women's multivitamin and vit. C.

    This is complete BS.  Short/small framed women have babies naturally every day. The size of your uterus now has nothing to do with how much it can grow to accommodate a baby. Also, your body will not make a baby that is too large to come out of you unless you have gestational diabetes. Also, your uterus being tilted has nothing to do with it, either. You may carry differently, but that has nothing to do with your ability to give birth. It is extremely rare, however, to have a pelvis too small for your baby's head to fit through (but like I said, extremely rare).

    ETA: Clarifying my point.

    Thank you for clearing that up for me! My previous doc told me that, not my current doc. I actually haven't talked to my current doc about it other than saying I want bc so I won't have kids. My current doc seems much more "with it" than my previous doc, though. She was kind of a quack, lol.
