Sometimes I get that not so fresh feeling

Remember those nasty commercials? Some teenaged girl would be talking to her mom about having a "not so fresh feeling?" Like moms and daughters have conversations like that. I certainly never did. But, then again, I saw the contraptions my mom used to douche with and I thought that I'd grow scabs down there before I used that shit on me.

Ok, as if that wasn't offensive enough - turn back now if you have a weak stomach because it is only going to get worse from here.

I signed up my two youngest for swim lessons, which started tonight. Coincidently, I started tonight, too. Fun. I'm 36 years old and I've never used a tampon. Army of Dad is still sick as a dog, so the option of having him do a 'daddy and me' swim class with Stinkerbelle was really not there. So, off to the Drug Emporium to try and find some tampons without applicators. Every time I've ever tried to use these devices of torture in the past, I wound up injuring myself with the applicator. So, I figure, other things have gone in that orifice before, why couldn't a tampon? I found that OB has ones with no applicator. Of course, it is just my luck that there is only one cashier working in the store and it has to be a 17-year-old boy. Gees Louise. Apple juice, Kool-Aid, Frosted Flakes, tampons. Lovely. At least he didn't have to do a price check and call for it over the PA system.

I get home and I got the damn thing to work. Of course, I felt like I had something shoved up in me - which I did, but it worked. We had our swim lessons and they were great fun. Now, I have to get these two hyped up little fishies into bed. We will do this every Monday and Wednesday for the next three weeks. I'll try and get AoD to take some pictures one day, if possible.
