Weeping and Whaling

Most women are attuned to their bodies. From years of living with our complex systems we’ve learned to anticipate what’s coming. For instance, I’m quite sure that I’m menopausal. Between tears and night sweats I can produce enough salt water to keep a beached whale alive for days. All I’d have to do is roll over the poor creature while wearing flannel pyjamas and thinking about an OSPCA commercial. Throw a pair of Daniel’s baby shoes and a wool scarf into the works and those Sea Shepherds could have nursed a couple gillyweed blunts before the situation ever got dicey.

  1. Yes ... well I am sure that you are menopausal too. How? ha! I have been doing those nasty things ... such as returning to earth all the salt digested over the last ... nearly three decades. Yes, I feel for you and wonder will it ever end!
