Am I an adult yet?

My face hurts

I turned off my alarm clock this morning and woke up 30 minutes late. I was almost to school when I hit a detour for an overturned SUV, which looked scary. At school the afternoon was the 5th grade picnic, and it was chilly and overcast. Because of this, the water activities were cancelled. Therefore, the children decided to be cranky and miserable and complained all afternoon. For the last 15 minutes, the sun came out, and I got a sunburn. I had a fitness consultation at the gym and found out that my body fat percentile is in the lowest 10%, which is bad (90% is the best). So I have a lot of unwanted fat floating around in my body.

It has been a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.

I also read this (for those of you who don't read Savage Love):

Not satisfied with meddling in the lives of the relatively small percentage of women who are pregnant, the American Taliban is moving to regulate the lives of all American women.
"New federal guidelines ask all females capable of conceiving a baby treat themselves—and to be treated by the health care system—as pre-pregnant, regardless of whether they plan to get pregnant anytime soon," reports The Washington Post. "[T]his means all women between first menstrual period and menopause should take folic acid supplements, refrain from smoking, maintain a healthy weight and keep chronic conditions such as asthma and diabetes under control… [I]t's important that women follow this advice throughout their reproductive lives, because about half of pregnancies are unplanned and so much damage can be done to a fetus between conception and the time the pregnancy is confirmed."

Boo.
