World Menopause Day

Holy Macaroni! It’s World Menopause Day on October 18th. I’m sorry, but I can’t get my head around the concept. What are we supposed to do to mark the day? I googled it and was directed to the International Menopause Society. No kidding. And I wasn’t expecting to see a guy at the top of the page. Is it male menopause day too? Surely we can’t all be sharing the same day, can we? And then, as if the International Society wasn’t enough, there’s some stuff on the page about the Council of Affiliated Menopause Societies. Frankly, this has blown my brain. I’m just realising how much I have to learn. Thank god for twitter and the cigar guy and the wine guy who are among my first 10 followers. I’m going to need all the help I can get.
