I always get easily affected around this time of the month. I appreciate kind words and cuddles a lot more than I do the other 3 weeks of the month. My feelings get hurt much easier than the other three weeks. I get more annoyed more readily. So some days are fantastic even when the good moments are really just mundane moments. All it takes is a sweet unexpected compliment or a random phone call from an old friend. Other days it’s the opposite and all it takes is a confrontational voicemail or flippant remarks by someone you care about. It wears me down and I’m ready to go hide in a movie theatre by myself or just go shopping.
I think I’ll opt for shopping tonight.
