10 Signs You’re Approaching Menopause

Etcetera

1. Your boobs are 34C, your hips are 3.14 Pi.

 

2. Your upper lip is a Chia Pet.

 

3. Alaska hires your body to melt snow.

 

4. You affectionately refer to your vaginal canal as “The Road to Ishtar.”

 

5. The fluid retained by your stomach could solve California’s water crisis.

 

6. Motherf#ck you dickface!

 

7. Zzzzzzzzzzzz.

 

8. Sob! Sob! Sob!

 

9. Has anyone seen my keys, checkbook, kids, mail, car, purse, youth, or Jolene cream bleach?

 

10. The sky called. It wants your ass to plug the ozone layer.

    My sign is that I’m reading this after drinking 40 oz. of water in preparation for my pelvic ultrasound to investigate the source of my “female troubles.” :)

    11. Your comedic pacing just gets better and better.

    Writerly crush on you, SDM. This has nothing to do with Ishtar, of course.

    Lady, I have tweezers in my tight little grip most days it’s like I’m some kind of Edward Scissorhands. Facial hair?! What kind of horrible twist of fate has to cause this?! PMS…it’s knocking. Louder and louder.

    #s 6, 7, 8, and 10 all apply to me and I’m 27. So either I’m in early menopause, or this list should be merged with “signs you’re a chubby crazy person.”

    love you, love this list. i’ll buy you some lube.

    I think we need to add the pubic hair that no longer grows on the hoo-haa but now trails down the thigh and starts a new patch behind the knees….

    I am LAUGHING. I’m going to be a mass of stubble when I hit menopause–my CHIN has been a chia pet for decades! Oh you are funny. And Sherri–oh lord that is horrifying and hysterical.

    Those Chia Pet hairs? I lovingly refer to them as “Stray Eyebrows”. But mine have landed on my jaw line. On the right side of my face. ONLY on the right side. Figures I’d be lopsided on top of everything else.

    All of the other things? Never heard of them. Oh wait… Forgetfulness. That’s #9. Shooooot.

    *sigh*

    What does it mean if you are under 30 and have all of these? Simply crazy? Even scarier, what is menopause going to be like for ME?

    I’ve never been a 34 C, except maybe at the height of engorgement and I’m a hairless wonder so #2, not so much. But #3-#10, OMG! Hilarious! I just made an asshat out of myself in Starbucks laughing out loud at this.

    OMG!!! I could check off almost every one of those. I think, for my 42nd birthday which is happening in a few weeks, Gareth feels forced to buy a case of Xanax so that HE can deal with all of this. Can’t blame the poor guy. The hot flashes I’ve been having at night lately are hot enough to melt a tub of dry ice!

    Perimenopause SUCKS!

    The greatest day of my life was the day I woke up from anesthesia following my hysterectomy. Okay, maybe not. It was the day they finally found my perfect dose of premarin and the migraines were gone, the hot flashes were gone, and yet I maintained my sparkling wit and charming “better watch your back, mister, cuz I’ll fuck you up!” banter.

    Take a few thousand deep breaths and it’ll pass. Then you can climb the ladder of success with additional charm and a lot less “aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrggghhhh!!!!”

    Saying a prayer for you, Deb!
