Sign Me Up

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had finally decided to call my doctor because I had gotten completely fed up with my pms symptoms.

Well, we ended up playing the longest game of phone tag in the history of phone tag.  We kept missing each other for weeks.  It actually became quite comical.

As call after missed call went on, I made up my mind that it was a sign that I wasn’t meant to take the anti-depressant and that I should continue trying to find a natural solution. 

Then the pms hit again and I started to feel a little like this:

I was cursing myself for being one of those stupid people who believed in stupid signs.  You know, kind of like how Sara (Kate Beckinsale) did in the movie Serendipity.  She fell madly in love with Jonathon (John Cusack) but decides that she shouldn’t be with him because of a sign and that she should let destiny/fate bring them back together.  Then years later she is kicking herself for being so ridiculous.  Yeah, that is totally me.  Accept, I’m not as cute as Kate Beckinsale.  And I would have never, ever let John Cusack slip away.  Ever. 

  

Anyway, I was all ready to fight the pms demons alone when out of the blue, guess who called me?  Dr. Lifesaver!    A sign!  (Yes, I’m a die hard when it comes to this stuff.)

We talked and we both agreed that starting on Prozac for the pms symptoms would be really helpful.  He said I should have success on the lowest dose during only the 14 days prior to my period.  I should see less side effects than I would taking it all month long. 

The medicine is here.  My husband was thrilled to go pick it up for me.  He throws a fit whenever I ask him to stop at the store normally so I found this very peculiar.  

I actually took my first pill last night.   I have to admit that I still have some reservations about the whole thing.  While I know that it is a chemical/hormonal imbalance and like any other sickness, it should be treated as such, I still worry about the side effects.

Will I feel weird?  Will I feel numb?   Will I gain more weight?  Will I lose my sex drive?   Will the all the negatives outweigh the relief I will get from taking it? 

I guess only time will tell.  In the meantime, here is a funny list I found for 13 other things PMS stands for.  I especially love the last one.

Best Movie Kisses

Since I haven’t seen a movie in a long time that is worthy of writing a review for,  I thought I’d make a list of my Top 5 Movie Kisses.  They really aren’t in any particular order, but you can probably guess my absolute favorite:

1.  The Notebook–Ok, if you hadn’t guessed by now, what took you so long??  This kiss is my absolute favorite.  Actually, I love every kiss from this movie, but this one is the best.  How can it not be?  There is really no comparison when it comes to this kiss. 

2.  Serendipity- A cute movie, a sweet kiss, and of course, John Cusack (again in some sort of precipitation).

3.  Gone With the Wind–A classic kiss!  I just watched it on youtube and I love how Scarlett’s all “Fiddledeedee” and Rhett’s all “None of the fools you’ve known have kissed you like this—have they? ”  I just love the way he takes hold of the situation and puts her in her place.  Not that I’m about men putting women in places, but it works in this scene.

4.  Titanic-The color of the sky, the costumes, LEO!!!  This is a truly magical kiss. 

 5.  Sixteen Candles–Ahh, Jake Ryan.  Didn’t every girl who grew up in the 80’s want to kiss Jake Ryan.  Gosh was he was dreamy.    Anyway, this is a great kiss:

So, what famous movie kiss do you think should be added to this list?
