Little Giggles

This will probably only be funny to my fellow Infertiles.

My menstrual cramps are especially vicious this month, and getting progressively worse (something that I've noticed since I had my D&C) and I asked Casey to bring home pizza for dinner on his way home from work, since I didn't want to go out and get it (also, since I got my hair butchered, I look like a boy. No, I'm not posting pictures.)

Casey: "Why don't you go get pizza? Then you don't have to wait for me to get home."
Me: "I don't want to get off the couch. I have really bad cramps, I don't think I could drive to the pizza place, even if I wanted to.
Casey: "Where are your 'pain pills 1' or your 'pain pills 2'? You could take those if you wanted to."
Me: "Well, I've had 'pain pills 1' since I had my D&C, and 'pain pills 2' since I got my tooth pulled...if I take them every month for cramps, they run out eventually."
Casey: "Go look in my top drawer."

I went and looked in his undermentionable drawer, and he had two little lonely pain pills sitting there in the corner. I gave them to him when he slipped at work and hurt his leg, and apparently he didn't take them

Me: "Ooooh, thank you."
Casey: "You don't sound very thankful."
Me: "Well, remind me to totally rock your world on Days 12, 14, 16, and 18 of my cycle."

Hey, when you have to have sex on a schedule, you have to find the humor somewhere!

In my defense, I don't condone sharing prescriptions. For those of you don't know, my husband had his leg ripped off in a car accident when he was 16. It was reattached, but his whole hip joint was rebuilt with surgical steel, and he's got a whole crapload of screws and plates in his leg. When the weather gets really bad or if he slips at work, his leg throbs for days! I feel really bad for him, and there's really not a lot that can be done to lessen the pain.
