BC?

No, I am not referring to Before Christ.

I'm referring to birth control.  Which I take solely for purposes of... um... controlling mood swings.  Really.  That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

You're probably wondering why I'd share such "private" information.  Only because there is a story that must be shared.

I was prescribed a new one and started it yesterday.  I go to open the package.  Previously, it was a little packet of pills in a box, open the little box, dump out the package, and pop the pills out.  Pretty simple right?

Not so much with the new ones.  It's this hard shell with the package tucked into it.  So I'm yanking and pulling and the little sucker just is not coming out.  I'm trying to pry open the box, whole nine yards.  When it happens.  I manage to slide out the package by twisting it on it's axis from inside this hard box contraption.  I'm a little confused why this must be so difficult.  I mean, if you were to take this for other purposes (although I can't imagine what they are...)... don't they want you to take it???

I can do a multitude of things, opening pill cases and containers are apparently not on that list of things.
