I'm not sure if any of you watch "The New Adventures of Old Christine," but it was pretty funny on Monday night.  Christine is a single mom who has nothing go right for her.  She is at the doctor for flu-like symptoms (so she thinks) – hot flashes, mood swings, etc.  The doctor (former George) says she is probably in the early stages of peri-menopause.

Of course she is in denial until she gets ahold of some creme, testosterone creme, and life is great again, feeling spunky and gets a bit out of control.

It was a pretty funny show… although she ended up just having adult chicken pox, it was pretty funny to see that menopause is out there right now.  From the musical, to the humorous websites, etc.  It's all good and it can help us all get through some of these tough stages.  A couple decades ago, menopause was this secret, hush-hush time in a woman's life.  Now, it seems it is becoming a celebrated time of life.

Anyway, if you missed the show, I'm sure you can watch it online at CBS's website.
