"My friend Melissa swears that the worst thing about being a man is that you'd have to be married to a woman, and while we always laugh at this because it is so deliciously eat-your-young mean, she may have a point.
We women do go though the change, but it's not just with menopause, it's when we have kids and we give up any attempt at being calm or practical, and become, overnight it seems, screaming, horror-tale-spinning banshees."
AND THE HERETIK SAYS: Not a lot of writers can get down and dirty and pull away from the pit with the pungent, sweet pithy words of wisdom. Behind the cowgirl with a tiara persona, Missouri Mule makes madness most sensible with a wit wondrous and wise. On an even deeper level, she makes The Heretik pee in his pants. Missouri Mule, you have touched The Heretik deeply, mostly in his soul.
Oh Hellhound, now you've gone and done it. Now you on the list of the only men I ever REALLY loved. Could I give you a get-out-of-hell free card? Make up your mind fast. You know, mood swings and all.

Not to suck up or anything, but Heretik is speaking for me, too. I'm just too shy to say stuff like that. My verbal roses tend to be less flowery.
