Ovulatory Dissonance

I am experiencing an acute case of Ovulatory Dissonance. Don't fret-- I 'm alright...it's a condition I just invented but I think it could sound familiar to many of you...

Today I am recovering from a few days with a sick kid. The projectile vomiting, the blazing fever, the body aches...Poor girl! But now that she is back to school I am playing catch-up. Blitzing the war-torn looking homefront, shuffling a mountain of work related papers, looking at looming grant deadlines and the like. I am cleaning the detrius of this disjointed week but my body doesn't like this idea.

I am ovulating.

My body is wondering where the bacchanal and bonfire are...? and where the party is?! My body wants to create, to be absolutely free, to quest. My life needs me to fold laundry, fill orders, and scramble for the answers to many, many tiresome finance questions.

So I am choosing to identify this disordered state before it swallows me whole.

What a full moon it has been!
