flexagonSuch a weird heavy period. I had probably the worst cramps on Tuesday that I've had since college, and couldn't do much besides flop around on the bed reading with a heating pad on my lower belly. That sucked. But the weirder thing, or maybe 100% related, is, um, the tissue clumps that have come along a couple of days later. Waking up to the feeling of a hygiene disaster-in-progress is one thing, but in the shower today there was a clump I had to pick back up because it clearly wasn't going down the drain. It was pretty darn solid... more like the body of a small mouse, or the heart of a medium-sized dog, than like blood or the usual tissue-wisps. Perhaps I'll start giving birth to small mammals next.
The functioning of the female body is a central topic in my current book, The Crimson Petal and the White, and I would love to read Michel Faber taking on that little scene. I'm not the writer he is... which might be lucky for you, all things considered.
