Sisterhood of the Traveling Hormone Patch

Menopausal dating should be adapted to film. 
a
At 47 I needed hormones (Estrogen and Progesterone). I chose to wear a small circular patch on my belly. 

It stays put...it's sticky.  One day I learned "the patch"  had a mind of its own.

I was in my Boudoir with the man I adore.  I hadn't been "there" in a while so I was a little nervous.  I gazed down to find the patch affixed to the end of a particular part of his anatomy. Cue blood curdling scream.

He didn't appear to notice.  (And they say it's a sensitive organ?)

The patch had traveled before, affixing itself to the underside of friends' flip flops, bathroom tiles, my shirt sleeve...etc.

But this was different.

Should I pull it off like a band-aid? Should I gently remove it...diverting his attention, do a card trick and THEN make my move?

"It's an Estrogen delivery system" I admitted. I had to say something before, um, interfering with his manhood.

Later that night he blinked innocently and said, "Charmaine, my breasts are sensitive and I have cramps. Do you have a heating pad?

Charmaine said...

Captain, he did. How did you know? But we broke up, again. I'm convinced it was because I had a larger...um...you know.

Even if was only my mind.

That's very funny!!! I was wondering if his softer, more feminine side would emerge, and I was right!

Char said...

Bwahahaha! That's just too funny. But you have probably just ruined him for any other woman. Send him a rose and a Mydol.

T'other being, 'Don't come near me you hellcat from the darker side- you need know i hate being touched when i feel like this!' All said with venom and spitting screams.
