So, the joys of the menstrual cycle.

My period is not exactly regular -- my cycle is *vaguely* 24 days, screwing me over as it slowly moves back from month to month until what used to be "around the 25th" becomes "around the 8th", and then over again. But at least I used to have fair warning: for many years, the signs that my period was nigh were simple: cramps and moodiness.

Now? My PMS, which comes the day before my period, has decided that variety is the spice of life. One month it will be cramping. One month it's hormonal overload. One month it will be bacne. One month I get the overwhelming need for a midday nap; the next month it will be hyperactivity to the point of not sleeping. One month it will be overwhelming clumsiness. One month it will be a splitting headache. And, of course, I never connect it to my period until the next day when I do the headdesk of "Ah, yet another variety of PMS. I should have known."

But this time? This time is a new one.

A giant, horribly painful, cyst-like pimple *on the inside of my inner labia*. GAAAAAH!! Ow ow ow ow OW OW OW OW OW OW OW OW FUCKING OW!

You know the whole "donating a kidney to help someone who needs it"? I really, really wish I could donate my entire reproductive system to someone who wants it. Seriously. I'm not using it! I'll put it on Craigslist! Hell, I'll put it on FREECYCLE! Just come pick it up and it's yours!

OMGWTFPMS! You SUCK!!

Gah.

Had them, hate them. OW.

I hate A&D (my parents used it on *everything*), so I'll rec Neosporin + Pain Relief. Or, I know it sounds strange, but I've found Carmex really soothing because it cools the area.
