Kick-Off at 0900

Today I am off to work, and since I am off to work I'm going to swing by the hospital and pick up my meds. I kick off my FET on Friday, with the Lupron injections.

Honestly? I am looking forward to the Lupron. No really. I am looking forward to just proceeding with the IVF, for one thing. Sitting around waiting for periods to happen is about as much fun as giving Simon Cowell a blow job, at least with the start of something you feel like you can dust off your knees and tell Simon to go walkies.

(Not like I would ever give Simon Cowell a blow job.)

(Really, I really wouldn't.)

The other reason I am looking forward to the Lupron is that it will enable me to cry. Seriously. On Lupron I cry at yellow pages commercials. I cry at bad Marissa Tomei films. I cry all the time. And I haven't cried since finding out our last round of IVF was negative-the water works just stopped. No tears here, Senors and Senoritas. I am dead inside-dead I say!

The tears, they will be welcome.

As will just beginning it all. I know Lupron isn't all that fun, but the worst I had was the crying jags, the hot flashes, and the bloat. It could be worse, I could be a banshee too, but I was only that on the Suprecur. With Lupron I can just be menopausal as opposed to homicidal.

Aidan's family came by this weekend, along with pregnant sister-in-law. I didn't really speak to her about it (I just couldn't.) They asked us about our bonuses (we both made a killing on them this year, I am so pleased.) Aidan said he had to spend money on blocked drains-the house drains need a professional to come in and get things moving.

Thinking of my upcoming £1000 FET bill, I smiled and said the same thing.

I love the Simon Cowell anology. Time to go for a walkie, lol! Bring on the sappy commercial's. Shall I rent Alfie for you?

Oh I see how it is. You use my German and then just toss it aside like it meant nothing to you. You flat leaver.

Ha! Must be lots of blocked drains going on at your place. PS I will add your FET to cyclesista, K?
