Dear Heather:

Please provide an acronym/initialism dictionary for those of us not reproductively-inclined, so that we might understand what the hell you're talking about.

Much love,
Dana

Haha I'm glad you're with my weird sense of humor tonight.

I'm exhausted. Midterms were today.

You're trying to get pregnant--you're allowed to slack. :-)
