I’m freaking infertile, why do I still have to have a period? WHY?! Freaking annoying. I don’t need my womb anymore, I wish they could just hack the whole thing out and so I could be done with it. Camping in the mountains with the lions and tigers and bears, oh my- while on my period! Fan-freaking-tastic. Can’t wait. We’re taking a bat.
Which brings me to the story dad likes to tell of a chick who was on her period while camping in the Rockies. Dad said his campground neighbors had been pretty rowdy all night, so when he heard screaming and a commotion he didn’t think too much of it. Until he discovered that a griz had found said chick and eaten her. Yummy.
I usually wouldn’t discuss such topics in public, but since Val told her husband already- after I called her demanding we find a campsite with a bathroom nearby, I figured why not?! Shouldn’t everyone know? Gah.
I think we are going to go to a place I’ve been camping before and loved. I’ll admit it makes me nervous that last time we were there I saw bears. Val has a good story about a bear- perhaps she’ll tell it sometime on her blog. I hope not to be telling stories about bears when we get back. I have always felt nervous in situations where my station in nature is on the bottom of the food chain.
