Warning!

[whoremoan.livejournal.com]

This isn't the most important warning in the world, but I feel it should be shared.

Normally I do not wear pads but I keep one in my pocket when I'm ragging and at work just as emergency backup. I prefer Kotex and they have those new wrappers made from some sort of cloth-like material so they're quieter. Well I noticed after about 4-5 hours of work my pocket was slightly moist. I was thinking wtf? why is my pocket wet? I pull out the pad and see that it is a warm moist mess. I'm fairly sure that the sweat from my leg was able to soak through the wrapper since it's not plastic and then soaked into the pad. The print on the pull off sticky paper had even run a bit. It was completely unpleasant. I have a job that requires lots of activity so sweat is unavoidable and my purse is kept in a locker on the other side of the store so keeping an emergency backup product in there wouldn't make much sense.

So the moral of the story: Put the cloth wrapped pad in a plastic baggie before putting in your pocket. Or you might get a yucky surprise.

Lol. Thank you for the warning. I bet Kotex didnt expect to try to protect against those kind of leaks!

Thanks for that! Even though I never even knew Kotex made wrappers which are rustleless.

They're fairly new. I think I first started seeing them 6-9 months ago.

Hmm. You're American I see. I'll be sure to keep a look out for them here! (By the way interesting most recent post - plannign to check that interview out. You hear about Courtney?)

Ms. Courtney Love is back in rehab isn't she? That's what the trashy magazines I read at work say.

I'm not quite sure about that, I wouldn't be surprised if she were though. But the thing I was talking about was her recent viagra fueled all-nighter with Steve Coogan. This was in a magazine I read on the way to Reading (music festival) and I think, not too sure, she might be expecting another child. Spawn of Steve Coogan? Poor Bean.

Ugh, even the cash in my back pocket gets soggy when it's super hot and I'm hanging out with my ass planted on a car seat or something like that. I put my ID or library card between the inside of my pocket and the money to act as a barrier between sweat and money that people are gonna be handling. You may be able to try that?
