Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

God, Morris Chestnut is a fine specimen of manhood.

My iPod played me Stevie Wonder's Jungle Fever on the way home today. That song always makes me joyful but self-conscious. White boy hazy indeed. Still, I'd like to raise a toast to the pretty of all the other races.

When I got on the airplane today they were playing Christmas music. I was not impressed.

I am, however, very excited that my hotel room has a minifridge. Why I'm watching some bizarre show on discovery health about women who give birth without realizing they're pregnant us beyond me, though.

Because you read about pregnancy symptoms here and you can't believe anyone could not notice? So you have to look?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I was just talking to a friend about that! Her sister graduated medical school and stepped on a plane to go on vacation...and ended up delivering a baby. The woman didn't know she was pregnant.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My pregnant sister (even before she was pregnant) is OBSESSED with that show. (Or one of them). It seems that most of them think that they can't get pregnant so they assume they are not. A few are very obese and have wildly irregular menstrual cycles.

My dog. They showed the trailer for Sherlock Holmes during V. What cracktastic and slashy goodness. Film, TV, and book purists alike must be outraged. I can't wait.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

You'd have to have pretty erratic periods to not notice you weren't having them. Then again, for the past few years mine have been close to non-existent (thank you, Mirena) so I should put myself in that category.

Still.

I dunno. If they come every three, four, five, nine, twelve weeks you might lose track of the last time you had one.

Mine are pretty regular but I still think, "Didn't this JUST happen? No, I guess my cousin's wedding/that concert/the trip to the waterpark WAS a month ago..."

If I can lose track of that I can see losing track of "Was that three months ago? Or five? Didn't I have a light one in March?" to the point where, lo and behold, nine months have gone by.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Mine were erratic. But I was paranoid. I might ignore one, but not two missed periods if I was having Teh Sex.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I should think more times before I type when it's past my bedtime. Nothing to see here.
