Aunt Flo is visiting!

http://www.janekurtz.com/periodpieces.html

"From the book flap: "Girlfriend, Aunt Flo, Dona Rosa, That time of the month, Being on the rag, The curse, Monthlies, Womanly time, George. You might have a different name for it, but all of these words mean the same thing: your period. And the number of nicknames you can make up for your period is nothing compared to the number of ways you can feel about it."
