Uterokinesis

For the post title see this strip from the New Adventures of Bobbin!

I think I need to be less of a smartass:

Monday --
Chiu: I'm having menstrual pain today.
Angela: Oh...
Chiu: It's just the first day.
me: You know, if we work in the same lab long enough, we're all going to be going at the same time.

Today, I ran into Chiu in the toilet. Since the two cubicles in the women's toilet have a common pad bin under the barrier between them...

Chiu: Synchronized! I just remembered the word yesterday.
me: Yeah. [groan roll eyes]

For the record, trying to learn a new lab technique when you're crampy sucks.
