Cramping my style

Warning: This post is about women problems

I am cramping like mad. I always forget how bad it hurts until it comes back. Being a woman is awesome, I love it, but I HATE periods. The only way to ease my pain is to lay on the couch, watch Anne of Green Gables(scientifically proven to reduce menstrual pain) hook myself to a hot pad and eat some ice cream. If I am doing anything else I am miserable. Is this everyone else too? What do you guys do for cramps? (I don't want to hear exercise! That is supposed to work, but it makes me totally nauseous)

Also on the same note, Matt tells me almost everyday that I am in a weird mood. Well, thinking about it, I have decided that it is no wonder that girls are an emotional wreck. We have four different hormones that are released in different levels and combinations EVERY day of our cycle. That is a lot of hormones to adjust to. It seems to me that by the time we finally get used to the 28 or so different levels of hormones, we go through menopause. I mean really, look at this chart, all the different colors make it look extremely crazy. I have decided that this is why girls are slightly less crazy as they age, their body knows how to handle this better.
