Hot flashes suck!

[ThomCat]

I desperately want to go home and take a nap, with AC blasting and cats curled up next to me.
I want coffee right now, but I don't want to go near anything hot.
Migraine headaches suck the life out of you.
And, I really don't give a damn about all the problems the Finance department has created.

:P

What thoughts are swirling around your head at the moment?

[lizziegrace]

1. They're probably not best put to paper

;)


:hug:

I know from experience that hot flashes suck. I'm sorry you've had to learn first-hand. :(

[ThomCat]

4. If more guys got hot flashes I think they'd realize that

woman are tough as nails. OMG, I'm dizzy, lightheaded, tired and I want to climb into a freezer somewhere. Anyone who can go through this and still function has my deepest admiration.

[lizziegrace]

7. Sweetie

you've got mine. :hug:

[ThomCat]

9. Aww... I'd blush but

you wouldn't be able to tell right now. I'm already flushed. :rofl:

:hug:

[lizziegrace]

11. We make quite a pair

don't we??

;)

[ThomCat]

15. Yes, but a pair of what?

:P

[lizziegrace]

:P

[ZombieNixon]

2. Wait a minute, guys get those, too?

I have that to look forward to as well? x(

[KitchenWitch]

5. I love you, ZombieNixon!

:rofl:

[ThomCat]

6. If you develop health problems then it's a real posibility.

Don't ever get hurt! :P

[KitchenWitch]

3. Yes they do.

I am constantly asking people if it is overly warm or is it just me. 99% of the time it is just me.

Sorry about your migraine!

:hug:

[ThomCat]

8. I'm famous as the guy who wears short sleeve polo shirts

year round while other people are wearing jackets at their desks. I know it's just me. :P

:hug:

[VenusRising]

10. Heidi is going to be mad at you.

It sounds like the menopause fairy visited you instead of her.

It's not going to be pretty when she finds out. :P

[KitchenWitch]

12. I would be happy to send that bitch to Heidi!

Soaking wet sheets every night from sweating, makes for a cranky KitchenWitch.

[ThomCat]

14. The heat in my bedroom died years ago

and I told the super not to bother fixing it. At least in the winter I can finally get a good night sleep. I wish you had that option. :(

I hope I can still do that this winter. I'm wondering if the arthritis will force me to get the heat turned on. :shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

19. I close our bedroom vent

And since it only gets down to the low 50s at night in the winter, I open our patio door (we have a patio door in our master bedroom). I also have a fan blowing on me constantly.

[VenusRising]

16. My husband has night-sweats sometimes.

I understand being cranky about that. It's even worse when you are the one in bed perfectly dry and roll over into a pool.

I'm sorry you have to deal with that. :hug:

You must be a fan sleeper, even in winter. I know a kindred spirit.

[KitchenWitch]

20. Yes

And often the patio door is open as well, in the winter.

[ThomCat]

13. Damn it! Somebody buy that fairy a map!

x(

:P

[VenusRising]

18. I don't know how she got that confused.

Do New York and Switzerland look anything alike? :crazy:

[ThomCat]

22. Hey, some people have absolutely no sense of direction!

:rofl:

[VenusRising]

24. Get her a seeing-eye dog, then.

:rofl:

[Maraya1969]

17. I hear ya honey! Hot flashes are natures way of making you pay for

not getting a period. I'd give you a hug but I know how it feels right now so instead pretend the coffee is cold. .:donut:

[ThomCat]

21. Oh... Coffee...

:9

I wonder if an Iced soymilk mocha latte is any good. I've only ever had them hot. I think I'm going to find out.

[MissMillie]

23. some of us start paying

before the periods stop.

[Maraya1969]

25. That really is NOT fair. Then again a lot of things about being

female are not fair. I wouldn't trade it for the alternative though.

[Greyskye]

26. My body chemistry was wack about a year ago

And I (a guy) got hot flashes. OMFG. I have so much empathy for my wife when she has them now. That really sucked!

[ThomCat]

27. Seriously! It gives you a perspective about how well

we usually have it. Our bodies normally cooperate with us. :shrug:

[Omphaloskepsis]

28. My sister is in the ER right now..

They are fixing her female parts right now. She wants me to have the kids if she dies.. I'm not cool with that.. I didn't tell her that. Once I finish my beer I will clean her house a prepare a proper bed for her while she recovers. I suck at this adult thing.

[ThomCat]

29. Being an adult often sucks.

:(

So much of life is just doing stuff because it has to get done.

I hope your sister is healthy and lives for a very, very long time.

[Heidi]

30. They've _gotta_ be better than cramps.

I eagerly await the arrival of the menopause fairy. :P
