Secret Ovaries

December 3, 2007

Do you know that I don't know exactly when Marco and I became boyfriends-and-girlfriends? Do you know that I also don't know exactly when I fell in love with him, and that he doesn't know either? Do you know that Marco hasn't cut his hair in six months, and that while I love how his hair falls on his face (as the love songs go), it's still terribly annoying? Do you know that I haven't eaten lunch yet? No, you don't know that.

 

Marco is one of the most difficult people I've ever come across in my as-yet-short life. He is the only man I know who might, upon closer medical inspection, have a pair of hidden ovaries floating somewhere in the regions of his pelvis. These secret ovaries, connected to hidden fallopian tubes, seem to excrete (at unpredictable times) invisible menstrual fluid which causes Marco's uncontrollable mood swings. This is the only logical explanation I have for his mind-boggling irritability.
