Did you all waste your bank holidays lamentably? Tell me something interesting, funny or horrific that happened to you this weekend.
I made a mistake with my pill and had to go and get the emergency contraceptive. The pharmacist judged me, insinuated that I was a liar and then charged me £22.99 for the privilege. It's expensive being a slag apparently.
But I had a really good steak last night and bought Lego Harry Potter so I'm happy again. I'm so easily pleased.
Sorry for the thread stepping Darth! I f5ed just before posting and everything!

It can make the vagina hostile to sperm.
There were claims that if taken VERY early for a few days after sperm has met egg, that it can make it all reject and not turn into a you-know-waht, but some experts have said that is rubbish.
Some hippy-types shove one up there before sex, but imagine if you accidently used an effervescent one...
No harm in taking a vitamin C overdose for a few days if you ask me.
You need all the help you can get, The pill can fail, Levonelle can fail, and Wiggy's sperm can win.

I think it's pretty lazy as it is, but yeah I know 2 women who've had kids whilst on the pill, nothing works like celibacy.
I have this feeling that when I do actually want to try for kids I won't be able to, not sure why. I think my womb is hostile.

I went to a house party in Camden, the place was a closed down pub with a bar and PA system and pool table roof terrace and everything. It was good fun then sunday cooked a fryup for 10 people, and decided to either go on a friends boat on the thames or go to notting hill.
I did neither and spent 6 hours in the pub and had roast pork.

I obviously can't do interesting or funny, and the most horrific thing that happened wasn't as bad as I thought. Was working during the Gallows, and had to deal with someone who at first I thought had a cut throat. It turned out it was just a cut eyebrow and the blood had just run down his face and down his throat. So that's ok, I sat and sponged blood off his face with a wet tissue feeling for all the world like someone's mother.

All this with what turned out to be a broken thumb from a crash in qualifying.

when they don't blink an eye at smoking patches, etc., which is also quite irresponsible. Plus not everyone who needs the emergency pill is a slag and it shows some modicum of responsibility that the girl would even go to the pharmacy to get it. I know some girls use it as their regular contraception, but that's quite rare. I know a woman who got pregnant because she had food poisoning and threw up her pill. In my case it was just retarded maths, but it doesn't make me a whore.
