It's only too much information if you can't empathize (fellas!).  I 
have a friend who planned her wedding date around that time of the 
month (very smart).  I find blueberries really clean out my system 
and make me feel better; cranberries too (juice, dried, fresh).  AND 
green tea does wonders; caffine to perk you up and get rid of extra 
water!  Have fun!  

p.s. The Redhead Piano bar on Michigan Ave (I THINK, it's been a 
while) is really excellent!
