I will get down on my knees...
Nov. 6th, 2002 12:51 amSo. A couple weeks back, I did some fall cleaning downstairs, and I came across a packet of my sister Jenna's birth control pills. Not being stupid, I put them right back where I found them.
A little background. My parents have drilled into us all the ten commandments, including the one about no sex before marriage. My brother violated that *quite* obviously. My sister Kat is anyone's guess, though I say yes. Jenna? Possibly.
She's moved out, you see. Living with one of Kat's ex-boyfriends. They're merely friends.
But. The pills. They've been at the back of my mind for a while. Should I mention them to my mother? Did my parents know she was taking them?
It's possible they were to regulate her hormone cycle, of course.
But I'm a suspicious bitch.
Today, I was thinking about it at work. Before class. I almost posted a small friends-only bit in my LJ, with the proviso that, well, I didn't know if my parents read/knew about my LJ.
Alas, I didn't.
But we did have an interesting discussion in 'Cafe about the knew ring that's a birth control insert.
I come home tonight, to this box on the kitchen table. Being as curious as a cat, I poke around, and find the shipping manifest. It's for my sister. It's a shipment of... the birth control rings.
She doesn't live here anymore, but her mail is still sent here.
Now, I can't figure out if this was her way of shouting to our parents, "Hi! I'm sexually active!" Or if she isn't. Or if she just wasn't thinking (I favour the latter theory). But it's clear my mother opened the box, not Jenna. Because they're still here.
Yes, I'm jumping to many conclusions. This could just be her way of adjusting her cycle.
But, as mentioned, I'm a suspicious bitch.
I think I'll ask mom tomorrow.
