Have you ever lived in a town so small that it rolls up the carpet and puts it away at a certain time? My mom does. And I just had to prove it to myself.
Before coming on vacation I had my period (I know, TMI). I was pleased that I would not need to worry about that pain during vacation. And I did not pack for it. Why bother to be prepared for something that just was not going to happen?
Because that is my kind of luck.
I was sitting on the couch, with Ladybug and my mom, watching a movie, when I got that feeling. Ladies, you know THAT feeling. And I thought, “Oh crap!” Okay, I might have thought some other words but let’s just go with those. So I asked to borrow my mom’s car (because it was parked behind mine) to make a quick run to the store to find some protection. I pull up to the grocery store at 9:17pm. Get out of the car. Walk toward the door and see the hours posted in very large letters.
7am-9pm
Crap! Or whatever word you like best. So I go to the drug store. Which apparently closes earlier than the grocery store. Then to the second grocery store across town, which is only like 2 miles. Closed.
Well now what? I mean, I can’t go a night without protection. Not possible. So I stop at the gas station and find what I am looking for. Along with all the other customers who are there buying beer. I guess I wasn’t the only person who forgot something that day.
And after all that, my period decided to leave the next day. Just testing me I guess.
